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.

Smoothed anomalies, I expect like 60%

Meh by early-mid swamptober, we’ll be back to our usual deluges thanks to screaming nor’easters and stalled out lows by the Great Lakes. Embrace the relative calm before bratty kids and their bewildered parents are nearly blown away by another pre Halloween torch cyclone!

..and to think millions of people voted for him not just one time but 3 times...that is all you or anyone else needs to know about those people.. 

Many of those millions were voting against HRC, Biden and Kamala more than voting for Trump.

and now the country is being burned to the ground. haha

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.

I drive by the Cambridge? Reservoir off of 95 quite often. I can’t believe how low it is. You can walk across parts of it. Water is confined to the middle. Can’t be good

voting against

what an awful way to cast something as important as a vote, especially when the alternatives were better prepared, better qualified and had better policy positions that would have helped everyday Americans a whole lot more than "Gulf of America" and "World Liberty Financial"

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...

Yea, save the precip regression for when it matters. I understand it's going to be warm...got it, but you def. want to swing the chamber as many times as possible if temps are an issue.

Couldn’t agree more. We will have our chances.

 Ensembles are in agreement in above normal height fields
and 2 meter temp anomalies for the first half of next week. This
supports above normal temps for the first half of next week...mainly
in the upper 70s to the middle 80s

Exactly... While arctic sand / powder storms might be hard to come by, ante is upped for slush bombs?

That's above normal yes, but not big heat.

[CoastalWx]

If we don’t get a dirty airmass with debris clouds 85-90 possible next week. It’s really toasty at 850.

We're at 34.76" to date here.  Lowest of 29 water years is 34.44" for 10/01-9/02, 2nd lowest 35.86" the following year(s).  I think we'll get more than 1.1" by the 30th to climb into 3rd driest.  Next step is 38.08" last year and I think that getting another 3.32"+ this month is unlikely.

39 this morning, season's first sub-40, and now struggling to get past the mid-50s.
