Interesting picture. This one was taken from a jet. At first it seemed odd the pyrocumulous didn't match up to the fire but this shows the same thing. Probably the same anvil and fire.

Typical Denver It's 97F (1pm local time) in Denver today. Will the ground be too warm for the snow to stick?

5.19" July and August but 1.56" last week helded the brown lawn

Wow. Nice with more showers later .60" 11am for me

937mb. Port Arthur is going to take a beating. Wonder if heating oil is produced there? Maybe time to quickly fill up the oil tanks before prices go up the next few days??

Heavy thunderstorm with pea size hail winding down. .50" in about 10 minutes. Top wind gust 27mph

84/66 Line of storms approaching. This should be the first solid hit of summer. Really looking forward to the rain. Webcam should be interesting to watch www.bridgewaternhweather.com

Since you posted an hour ago another burst of convection has started. So the waxing and waning as modeled seems to be happening

Very interesting and unusual situation coming up with Marco and Laura. Everything would have to come together just right (or wrong depending on your viewpoint) but we could have 2 land falling hurricanes within 24 hours coming ashore at the same place. It could be a bad situation for New Orleans. If Marco came ashore just SW of the city it would drive water into Lake Pontchartrain. If Marco then turned more west and weakened quickly the water would not drain back into the Gulf. Lots of "ifs" but Laura could follow the same path driving more water into the canal system. This will be fascinating from a meteorological standpoint to see how this all plays out.

Just looked at the 12Z GFS. Possibilities of 2 storms hitting the same area in Louisiana, one after another.

Wow on the 12Z GFS. A possibility of 2 hurricanes hitting the same area one after another? Interesting weather for Louisiana

PF, This is a beautiful picture. Even the framing is perfect. Nice to see him so healthy

67F Cool breeze with light rain just ending. One rumble of thunder. .03"

I'll be happy with my 2". I hope this is not a week of everything sliding NW to SE just north of me so I can smell the rain at times without receiving a drop

"either way, this may as well be black-and-white, wan-drawn couple of faces making eggs in a struggling economic kitchen, while an off-set homaged cigarette smoking clown sits behind them" This is pure TT language. Love it

Going through some Derecho videos. Now this is a severe thunderstorm. I found the video unusual. Unlike one super gust front it keeps going and getting worse. Looks like Cat 3-4 hurricane damage

83/67 30% Cu with a nice breeze. AC has been going since yesterday but almost time to open the windows.

Is anyone else seeing large amounts of grasshoppers? Up here around Newfound Lake people are talking and posting pictures. The past 6 weeks have been very warm and dry. Is there a correlation?

Ha. 89.4F we never made it to 90F. I did hit 90.2F earlier this summer.

85/72 Noon. Highest of summer is 90F. Towering Cu southwest.

The bow seems to be heading right for Chicago. Anyone who has time on their hands during the next hour or two this earthcam site should be interesting to watch https://www.earthcam.com/usa/illinois/chicago/field/?cam=fieldmuseum

GFS is so dry for me. Through 300 hours it has .25" for Plymouth NH. I got 2.60" of rain in July and .60" so far in August. Ouch..

After Hurricane Bob everyone was taking on Cape Cod about how all the trees turned brown because of the salt spray damage

I'm seeing bears more frequently. When we moved here full time in 2001 we never saw bears. Now they seem to be everywhere around Newfound Lake. Summer's back isn't broken just yet. Very warm evening but yet I can tell by the lowering sun angle that the seasons are changing. Conditions remain very dry here. Other than the last week in June there has not been much rain since April. 2.51" was my July total and so far in August .65" I really wish Isaias had past east. Isaias high wind gust here 42mph and rain total .40" Even a 42mph gust was enough to knock out power for 24 hours.

I'm 63 so was born in 1956. The first hurricane I can vaguely remember was Esther in 1961. We lived with my Grandparents in West Newton. I can remember the power going out and my grandfather lighting lanterns. He also wanted to go outside during the height of the storm to bring some patio furniture in and my grandmother was yelling at him not to. I remember the winds blowing wildly through the trees. My grandparents lived in Newton during the hurricane of 38. They are both deceased but my grandmother told me about it. The hurricane conditions came on very rapidly. She was picking my Mom up someplace in Newton and said trees were coming down left and right as she drove. Don't know how true that was. I moved to Baltimore in the 70's to live with my Dad. Next storm I remember was Agnes. Tropical Storm Agnes was not foretasted to be a big deal in Maryland as I recall. The rain began in earnest in the evening around Baltimore. I was 16 years old by then and had a rain gauge. I recorded around 12" in 12 hours. Just massive flooding everywhere. The Jones Falls Expressway (I-83) runs from the Baltimore Beltway into downtown. It runs along the Jones Falls River. The river very quickly overcame it's banks and I believe 8 people were swept away in flash floods that night stranded in their cars along that expressway. 16 people died from flash floods in the Washington DC area and 122 died in the northeast mostly from flooding. That storm got some synoptic enhancement and intensified over land as it moved north. The next storm I remember was Hurricane Gloria. That was a Cat 5 as it headed for the northeast and the media hype was tremendous. By that time I had moved back to Boston. The evening before I believe Metro Boston had a Hurricane Warning. I have lots of old VHS tapes of the forecasts. People were panicking. Driving down Commonwealth Ave I remember most every building had taped their windows. The following day most business and schools were closed in metro Boston. Gloria weakened quite a bit and I was underwhelmed. Don't know what I expected but the rainfall was not that heavy and we had some big wind gusts but nothing that lived up to the hype. Living in the city of Boston there were not that many trees around my apartment building so perhaps if I lived in the suburbs I would have been more impressed. The next storm was Hurricane Bob. I lived in Newton. Most business opened that morning but closed around noon. I remember how heavy the traffic was on Rt 128 at lunchtime. Bob was the most impressive TC in my lifetime. A period of heavy rain and strong winds in Newton. The worst winds was as Bob was leaving and we had strong northwest winds. The Cape didn't get that much rain but the high winds. I remember how many of the trees on the cape turned brown as there was so much salt water mixed in the air that it killed the foliage. Isaias up here in NH was briefly impressive. Only a 42mph gust but enough to knock out power for 24 hours. As the feeder band came through I made this 45 second Utube video. My cat Tessie was not very impressed.
