I'm surprised as weak as the Euro has it the track is still over the Cape and a bit further west than 6Z. Brings rain well west

I don't think Henri is going to be a big deal. Trend is now east. (I don't look at the NAM for tropical cyclones). Henri is not being yanked north in front of a late season trough so it will weaken as it approaches. Unless someone gets into the right quad which is becoming less likely there is not going to be a ton of wind. Coastal high tides might be the biggest factor. Still plenty of time for changes but set your expectations low on this one.

This is a good question. I don't know what are the best setups for PREs

18Z vs. 12Z GFS

I could see Henri come north towards New England, stall out south of us but far enough so that it does not cause extensive disruption and slowly spin down as it waits for the high to move out and then resumes a NE motion. In any event a path 200 miles SE of Nantucket seems less and less likely.

Tides look pretty high on the 23/24th 5 days out, threat increasing. Think Henri deserves it's own thread. Just made one.

GFS comes west again. Threat to Southern New England Increasing. Discuss

12Z GFS hooks NW into Central LI and then almost stalls before moving NE again and going out to sea just S of Boston. Got to look at the tide levels for several high tides.

Hi Alex, Hope you and the family had a good summer. What would you guess as your first frost date? Around September 1rst?

Cold front is through. Rain missed about a mile north. After 10.56" of rain in July I have only received .03" of rain this month. Pretty crazy!

Earlier this summer a bear got one of our apple saplings. I am seeing bears at least once a week now in our pastures. They are definitely becoming more numerous.

Well it 'was' our favorite peach tree. At least the bear left some fertilizer

Just a quick rant about the awful forecast presentation I just watched on NH only TV station WMUR. Eric Weglarz 5pm forecast went on and on about the heavy rain threat. I don't know where he gets his graphics but I don't see anything bringing heavy rain into the state except for the extreme SE. Never did he say most of the state is going to stay dry. If I watched this from my area, Newfound Lake I would sure think we have a very good chance of heavy rain. It's not going to happen this far NW. Okay, I feel better getting this off my chest.

It's 36 hours away.. 18Z GFS gives me 0.00". 18Z NAM gives me 2.09 Glad it is not winter.

Ended up with 1.41". That is the biggest rainfall this summer. Our pond is now 1/2" filled. Usually it is dry by now. Unlike most of you I am happy for the 10" over the past month and cool weather. Gardens and lawn look amazing

1.15" here. Brings month to 8.15"

Best thunderstorm in a couple of years last evening. 1.07". Some small hail. Gusty winds and lots of lightning. One thing that I found interesting. Thunder was not loud. Wonder if smoke had to do with that? 7.25" ish for the month

Severe thunderstorm just ending 63F .77" Moderate rain. Small hail during storm and gusty winds 30mph in my sheltered NW location Youtube during storm

Finally a summer with rain. Lawn and gardens looks real good.

Very curious what I end up with?? Could be.50" could be 2.50". My gut takes the under

Taken as a whole, when was the last time this much rain was falling all at once in Massachusetts?

Just had quite a thunderstorm as far as lightning goes. Many cloud to ground strikes around Newfound Lake. No wind and storms weakened as they past. Only .15" as the core went just south.

I'm probably the only one on the boards that is happy. I have had much less rain than most of you but finally having a mid summer without wilting gardens and brown grass. 4.50" ish for July has been super. I will take another heavy thunderstorm or two and then it can stop. Nice to have windows wide open. Very refreshing out there.

Nice patch of rain moved through earlier this morning .45"

Drum roll please..... .27"
