Augdewst 2026: Summer's Last Stand

[ineedsnow]

driving home just hit a quick downpour a few miles away.. nothing here though

[78Blizzard]

87/73 here now.  We have hit 90 for a total of one hour this week, and that was on Friday.  So much for those 6 straight days of 90+ the GFS was spitting out for days.

Probably get slammed at home while I’m at Fenway

Convection sucks. Missing good rains by a mile again. Getting some good CGs though.

Let’s get something on fire with no rain to put it out.

5 minute downpour…0.11” lol. Kinda infuriating to miss a 1/2”+ by a mile again.

You’re this close from getting the torch passed to you.

I am pleased with the overall storm development thus far to our west,  and timing seems a bit quicker than yesterday.  Unfortunately, there is a gap between the more northern and southern cluster of storms which seems to be lining up with this area. Hopefully that fills in and we see more additional activity develop.  Not expecting any sort of major outbreak, but a few severe storms are certainly possible, mainly in the central and western portions of SNE.

With the 2pm reading this is the 19th day so far this year CEF has been AOA 90. The total last year was 27. Probably will fall a bit short of that this year. Normal im guessing is in the low 20's.

I don’t really care much for convection unless it’s a biggun. I’m more happy for the natural rainfall.

AI says normal is only like 18-20 at BDL which may be a bit low.  At least thats one thing we can hang our hats on here in this pit, hitting 90 more than anyone else in the region.
