I feel for you who have younger kids just starting. I have a senior. They are distributing Chromebooks to every student now, as a requirement. Picked hers up on Monday. They'll be starting from home the first couple months it would appear. Then they will supposedly go 2 days a week for the 1/2 the student body and the other 1/2 will go on 2 separate days of the week. So they will be home 3 days a week when they start to go into the classroom.

News here is still covering it for a large portion of the newscast

0.14" here. Winds dried that right up. A little over 1" of rain in the last 30 days.

Dry conditions look to persist. Need a pattern change.

Put that in perspective. The Oklahoma City Bombing was 2.5 tons. This was 100 times larger.

Close. It was Sodium Nitrate

That is phenomenal.

Thread have been give.

Tater tots

Bruins are about at lethal as this TS is.

Droughtstein's forecast https://www.boston.com/weather/weather/2020/08/03/isaias-forecast-new-england MEH here

Petition the NWS to combine the 2.

High Wind Warning A High Wind Warning is issued when the following conditions are expected: 1) sustained winds of 40 mph or higher for one hour or more OR 2) wind gusts of 58 mph or higher for any duration. Tropical Storm Warning A Tropical Storm Warning is issued when sustained winds of 34 to 63 kt (39 to 73 mph) or higher associated with a tropical cyclone are expected in 36 hours or less. These winds may be accompanied by storm surge, coastal flooding, and/or river flooding.

I don't recall the named storm but it was a good 5-7 years ago now that brought some solid winds to SE MA. Brought down some tress in the neighborhood. This looks nothing like that threat.

Hey look, another 90F day.

No one has said there would not be wind damage potential in SW CT.

In Tauntnone it's stopped raining after that June onslaught of 4"+

To all 3 of those points, I think the greatest risks in New England are in western areas. Not saying we can't rule out a rogue spin up or rain band, I just see the majority of issues being over W NE.

All the best forcing for rain is west of the circulation. Gonna be huge disappointment around eastern areas.

Dews don't get much higher then this here.
