June 2024 Observations and Discussion

very rare to see pink and white on nws radar wow, 70-80-dbz...

Heavy rain ️ now

Crazy rain! 1.7 inches of rain in 45 min max wind speed 47.9 ..that was intense

It fell apart here. No action beyond a half in

Oh what a beautiful morning. Eating a Cinnabon with coffee outside and the breeze is just wonderful. 64 degrees. Birds singing. Cows mooing. Chickens cackling.

This is actually a FANTASTIC over/under! Synoptically speaking, I think that this setup actually favors areas along and north/west of the Appalachian Chain, basically from the Central Plains, through the Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, central and northern New England and then the southern tier of eastern Canada for the more widespread and more significantly anomalous heat. However, the urban heat island effect is real, especially at literally the peak of insolation. So, I think that areas along the I-95 Corridor will surpass the threshold (taking the over), but I think it will generally be hotter to the north and west of our region on the whole.

I can elaborate on this further tonight, though, if you want me to, but alas, lovely work awaits lol

PLEASE DO!  Will be standing by...

Ask and you shall receive haha Here's a link to a relatively brief discussion of my above thinking about the pending heatwave:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aYVljJ8l-ExPb0Qx7TmmtRnoJ-GeuZWU/view?usp=share_link

Basically, areas to our northwest will be more directly affected by the source region hot air longer than we will, because as that airmass shifts into our region (after a *relatively* delayed onset thanks to the influence from the North Atlantic High), the atmosphere evolves in such a way that it taints that airmass with relatively cooler, moister air. Add in the convection, and that’s why I think what I do. But if you, or anybody else has any questions about anything in the video, please feel free to post them and I will do my best to answer them Additionally, it looks like the NWS has a similar train of thought as I do, as I saw this earlier today:



We will see how it turns out haha

joeanne trust me I do not look forward for the heat either. I hate the summer I am not looking forward for the heat at all specially when it’s 90° or more. Drink plenty of water. Stay safe in Boston and try to stay cool.

84 degrees, mostly sunny slight breeze.Been a long while since a string of 90 plus degrees.Agree with frank and Mom, not my weather either.A slight bit of a boost is Friday Summer starts and the days get shorter!!

88 here today.
Hot.
Central air working well. Pool was lovely.

91* was the high yesterday.. thank goodness for AC hopefully everyone stays safe out there the next few days!

We have to go up for some award breakfast...the hotel is right by the train station and I will not be walking around Boston this trip..bringing a good book and will relax in hotel after! No dogs, no cooking, no cleaning...I will be very happy just to sit in the room hahahah

currenly 77* with a slight breeze..and more humid than yesterday morning, but not oppressive

93 here and suddenly hazy. If I read the radar correctly I see no chance of rain now but it sure lioks like a way coming in the morning.

we hit 90*  but humidity today is not out of control..son who has an internship and works from home came out of his room with a hoodie, sweatpants, and fuzzy socks on  for goodness sakes..you would think I have the house set at 60 its at 72* LOL

already 75* and 80% humidity...stay safe everyone!

Hit 93* today, 90* yesterday. Definitely the start of an official heat wave. I ran around and did all my chores Monday so I wouldn't have to go out! lol

This isn’t directed at anybody in particular on this forum, but more a venting of my frustration with how this “heat dome” is being covered in the media. If the areas circled in yellow are the heat dome and North America on fire, what are the areas circled in green and white? The next ice age?




This is how weather works, always has.

That’s funny, Ray. It was 93.5 as a high up here. I opened the back deck slider door at 3 pm and got a thermal concussion. A pool day and being retired, i ignorantly bathed while greater minds were at work today.

It wasn’t that hot here, I think we topped out at around 85-86°, but the best that I could do was a cold shower lol so I envy you for the pool haha

69 degrees, mostly clear, calm winds.
Congrats on retirement Damian!Another scorcher today with bad air quality.Can't exactly remember, but I think in the summer of '63, we had 15 days in a row of over 90, one with 102 or 103.I do remember frying an egg on the roof of my Dad's 1954 DeSoto which did not earn me any appreciation points.

The over wins!!

Needless to say..not leaving hotel today!!
On side note so proud of hubbie...he won the equivalent of an academy award for cyber security (the Orbie)

Woahhh that’s awesome! Congratulations, hubby! Haha

I probably would have bet the over. Figured someone today or tomorrow was going to hit 100.

92 degrees, mostly sunny, calm winds.
