Drop that shortwave from Hudson Bay due south into Tennessee, and that'll end the drought real quick. 

That would be cool. Still looks active starting Saturday and continuing a while afterwards.  We cool off and then maybe another heatwave early August looking at model clusters. 

Meanwhile,  I believe I bserve smoke overhead. Skies are milky white.

Probably not too much of a leap to think that the smoke might be holding temps back a bit.

I can certainly see that too.  Maybe a couple of degrees cooler would be possible.  Never hit the forecasted high here today.  Tomorrow's HRR smoke forecast is even worse, but I have not looked at the latest update.

Looks like our area is worse tomorrow as well. 

Dense smoke plume arrives tomorrow.

The latest HRRR shows some absolutely insane smoke on Thursday across WNY. If it comes to fruition it would be much worse than what we experienced a few years ago in 2023.
