Augdewst 2026: Summer's Last Stand

[CT Valley Snowman]

Rain has been plentiful, convection flaccid. Without a cane threat or some decent convection, things can get pretty boring this time of year. Anomalous weather in general is more interesting.  Even when we get exceptional heat, heavy rain, or dews, that is at least somewhat more interesting, but obviously some big-time convection or a legit cane threat much more so.  And before I get stoned, no I do not root for death and devastation.  I simply enjoy seeing the power of mother nature on display and enjoy active and exciting weather.

Only destructive weather I enjoy is a shake the shit of of the house thunderstorm!

If it’s daylight, I’m out taking pics of the carnage without a care.

Enjoy the rest of your evening!!!

Drought conditions for many including here

[JACKASS]

The line coming in from NY looks like it’s trying to hold together.

Any chance it survives it’s way through here?

Damn!

For such a small area of the country, it’s amazing how diverse we actually are weather wise.

Dews will drop a little tomorrow especially north of the MA/CT/RI border as it dries just a tad aloft. But in the aftn we’ll see the south coast seabreeze move north and then humidity increases in the evening.

[dendrite]

A nice, safe depression (remnants are fine too) with no lightning and 4-8” would be great.

Took advantage of this great wx and had a nice 4 mile run at 5 this morning . Just feels so awesome out there. Makes you want to move , and exercise etc. Much better running in this vs cold
