Weather station we have at work says it's 79.8°F Dewpoint, but I'm not so sure that's accurate

The Dewey point is 72°F for christ sake! Woof!

I've been at work since about 8 and I've essentially soaked myself through and through, barely doing much at least 5 times already!

The date on that map says 8/6/22 have they not updated it ?

Ugh, gefs, geps,eps have been trending in the wrong direction when using tidbits model trend...

86.5. Haven't hit 90 yet in August

Heat index of 90.5°F here already, quite high so quickly.

Just looking at various models, several show some similar views of a low pressure down south but they all seem to lose it versus the gfs. Time will tell. But all the ensembles including gefs say nothing to see here.... move on

Sign me up! I need a new truck again. Bought my last one week or 2 before Sandy. Paid off the 5 year loan in 2 with 6 months of crazy over- time, 2-4 weeks of working 7 days a week, 12 hour days then 9 hours a day 6 days a week for months! Best silver lining to a bad situation.

They been trying it here on the north fork all day, building near l between southold and riverhead then fizzling .

87.6 for the day

INSTRUCTIONS: A Heat Advisory is issued when the combination of heat and humidity is expected to make it feel like it is 95 to 99 degrees for two or more consecutive days, or 100 to 104 degrees for any length of time. Seniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health conditions are at an increased risk. Homes without air conditioning can be much hotter than outdoor temperatures. Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has air conditioning. Check on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbors.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... -- Changed Discussion -- Will continue to monitor temps and dew points. Portions of interior eastern CT have registered dew points in the mid 70s. With cloud cover potentially staying back to the SW just long enough, resulting in full sun for most areas into at least the first half of the afternoon heat advisories may need to be hoisted for multiple days of 95+ heat indices (starting potentially w this afternoon). Will make this decision next update as it will be borderline for later today. Trimmed back POPs ever so slightly across eastern sections for the most part for later today. Still maintaining chance to slight chance POPs from west to east across large majority of the area for this afternoon and the early evening. Previous discussion follows.

Where's Lake God?

Should storms survive/ develop they're on a south east trajectory

Sun mostly out and we're up to 85 now

Already over an inch in several areas with no signs of stopping, potential for flash flooding no doubt. THUNDER NOW!

Amazing, the temperature and Dewpoint both crashed with this rain, went from 80 to 74°F Dewpoint went from about 68 to 63.

Picked up 0.35 so far, 0.75 total for month so far

Sneaky little cell that has some training look to it....

Finally it's raining!

Kinda surprised it didn't get warmer
