First time in 85 years per Oceanwx earlier in the thread.

Thanks! 2 years in a row with hundies.

BOS was 100 long enough for it to count. Waiting for the tale of the tape…

We’re weenies-extremes are where it’s at-bring it!

So we’re back to big heat during the second half of the upcoming week?

So far, late June through the first 10 days of July resembles 1999. To me this is different from early Nino summer.

Finally getting a whole new central AC for the house just in time. Starts tomorrow and done hopefully by the end of Friday. Just in the nick of time for next weeks heater.

Actually most days have been AOA although yesterday and today no. Remember, it’s June and this month averages about 5-7F less than July so expectations should be kept in check. July looks to start hot but what’s Independence Day without heat?

June has been well above normal. That’s not debatable.

That’s the biggest difference I see and that kind of brings us into the summer vibe.

I think we’ve made it past the worst part of spring cold rains. Most days looking forward look AOA normal temperature wise and plenty of sun.

Confusion can be an illusion. I usually trust perfusion. Bad timing on shitty weekends but that’s the way the proverbial cookie crumbles. Some here rush the seasons. This is the 5th year I’m teaching my course and the first few classes always have cooler temperatures than one envisions. This year the same.

That signal has started to show the past few days. It is growing legs.

My buddies and me did the Franconia Ridge in early May 1975 with snow showers at the base but thankfully dry on the ridge. Quite the slog through areas of deep snow in the way up via the falling waters trail. Of course a few months later we had legendary heat. Some of the guys are gone but most still here albeit many in steep decline. I’m enjoying good fortune while it lasts although my spinal stenosis and aches and pains in joints occasionally plague me. My philosophy is push through what you can…
