53° / 51° another cool start to what it looks like a beautiful day. Mild up beginning the second week of August?  Hartford now stands at 0.4 above average for the month. What happened to the hottest month ever?

thank you, I appreciate you keeping us posted about MBY

delightfully refreshing sub 60 morning out there for a run, or just drinking coffee

Nah, I will stay local. Worcester - eight straight days of below normal temperatures and temperatures in the '70s. Remarkable considering peak summer. The hot crowd can't win for losing.

 Taunton's rental unit for next week? He doesn't have much luck with vacations.

Huge model differences. Euro washes bridges away in NNE on Wednesday/Thursday while the Canadian and gfs are pretty much dry next week

Been out of town for the past week and haven't paid any attention to weather at all.

It’s possible it’s just humid with afternoon/ evening showers and storms next week. Doesn’t look like all day washouts . But there are signals of heaviest qpf in NNE

There has been nothing to pay attention to for the vast majority of the area...lol

enjoy your warm rainy winter

Hopefully the euro/icon have the right idea for midweek. Otherwise we’re facing a July with under 1” of rain. 0.89” so far. 00z AI GFS was really wet too, but it backed way off at 6z.

who expected that with a nino this strong? it's pretty nuts that we got any of these heat waves in the first place

Heat/humidity lasted 4 days, 5th and following has been slightly BN.  78/46 here yesterday.

Warm up really begins on the 31st. But that whole first two week period of Augdewst looks deep deep summer

if this nino happened 50 years ago this month would be -4

Agreed ... but aren't they almost mutually exclusive?

50 years ago ( personal conjecture)  this on-setting NINO and it's weird 'ominous' portends of that seems almost metaphysically prescience ... whatever it is and all of it probably can't happen.  

Why?

Because this has a non-linear ( force not readily observable in climate change) aspect that is constructively interfering.  That's a form of synergy. That synergy is sensible - almost like a subconscious awareness, which is why-for ( probably ) the prescient portend ... Like watching a comeback in sports.  The team is still down 10 points by you know somehow some way they're winning that game.    

In this case tho, we're the losing side... It seems this NINO is catapulting off a background that is "elastically" under tension.  It trying to restore to equilibrium at all times.  That restorative force is in the upward ( climate change ) direction. 

The oceans have absorbed 90% of the warming that "should have" been atmospherically kinetic and or stored in WV, since the Industrial Revolution. How much absorption can happen before something is forcibly given back..?   Something like a NINO getting a masturbated by all that storage over the last 150 years might be another Homer in Hell on a doughnut stuffing machine give back.    You know?  Like what happen in the 2023 global pan-systemic temperature burst that spring.  This Hadean NINO we're apparently fated to observing may in fact be another don't stuffing.   We'll see. 

Seriously though, I speculate that the this NINO is in a sort of synergistic/constructive feedback with the background state. A state that could not have been the case 50 years ago, because obviously the background was significantly enough different.  Less donuts in the machine's cartridge.
