Yeah it's narcissism paired with dementia.  And people still act like everything is normal lol. And he's got the launch codes.

I think alot of here is via underground pipeline from points south and west

Yeah pipelines here too...in fact not enough of them to keep supply and prices lower.

I can't complain too much about price.   Comparing my bill to friends who have oil I'm usually at 50% of their bill and we keep the house fairly warm

There was a proposal a few years back to build a larger pipeline from PA into New England that was working it's way through regulatory approvals until it was discovered that the proposed larger pipeline would be used in part to export gas from the Everett terminal, instead of import.

Do you happen to know if the pipelines shown on that map are preexisting or were they part of the proposal you mentioned?

I know the Algonquin has been there for many years and is still used today . I used to ride dirt bikes along it back in the day.

I think the map shows preexisting.  The new line was going to connect the Algonquin and the Tennessee pipelines in PA and NY, follow the right of way of the Tennessee into western Mass, then run a new line across northern Mass into NH.

Natural gas prices are state regulated by PURA. They have to submit rate increases and get them approved similar to electricity. I believe its every 6 months like electricity so the price is extremely stable for 6 months.

@CoastalWx may be on to something here beating the boring drum as the focus turns to natgas, pipelines and domestic policies rather than weather 

[Brewbeer]

68/64, cloudy, calm

boring weather, such as it is, is the best

take

I might be misreading it, but that shows a 6-week anomaly total for most of New England in the -0.5 to -1.0 inch range.  Certainly not anything overly concerning?  Instead of ~4 inches of rain over the next 6 weeks, most get 3.0 to 3.5 inches?  Assuming that product is close to accurate, which is always iffy.

I’m down probably 1.5” on that graphic and couldn’t care less, ha.  Nice, dry weather is perfect for enjoying the outdoors during the autumn.  Even if it didn’t rain at all in the next 6 weeks, life would go on just fine.

[Brewbeer]

man, what a night last night, another with windows open and a fan on low, great for sleep (if you can)

currently 60/60, will we need the house ACs later today for one more day this season ?

Well just showing we are heading into a very dry Stein pattern. NW flow in late summer / early fall is typically dry, Steiny, and fronts come thru with almost no moisture. Tonight’s is a great example

it's showing that your rainfall over the next 1080 (LOL) hours will be ~1" less than normal. how is that "a very dry stein pattern"??

Could get quite warm again next week. September looks to be AN overall.

That’s not what it’s showing . The point is there’s no coastals or tropical systems or any loaded gulf of America connections with fronts . When you see the whole Eastern 2/3 of the country in a dry , stein look like that , you know it’s going to be dry and boring 

[CoastalWx]

Drought getting a little serious here. Rivers and ponds are about as low as I can recall and the trees are dropping leaves. This probably is the second driest summer I can remember since moving here in 2013.

Which is why we named the thread what we did .. an endless summer

they all look "above normal" now; in the last 10 years more than 75% of the average monthly temps in southern New England have been above normal  

above normal is the new normal

First time turning on the sprinklers since June (hasn’t rained in 72 hours) forgot where the app was on my phone.

Lawns still lush and green here-I think we'd need another week before anything needs water

Agree...

[SouthCoastMA]

I've been watering twice a day for the past 3 days, after overseeding on Monday morning. This dryness is killing my soul

I'm ok with that... Overall a great early fall Goldilocks pattern; not too warm; not too cold, not too wet and not too dry...  Certainly not extreme... A little boring for sure but with the likelihood of an active East Coast winter, I'm ok with boring right now...
