They didn't have just Windsor Locks as an option. And it doesn't change my point anyway. Feel free to eyeball the data since 1948...it's still been a torchfest since the late 90s.

Tough stretch to be an ACATT weenie.

If you want legit severe you apparently need to go to ski country or the Cape.

Nice warm day. Dews mixed out nicely over the interior. It's really not that bad out at all...pretty much U80s here. 86.1F max on the Davis.

Overwatered maybe?

Humid, but nothing like a week ago. Nice day to be by the water.

GEFS staying the course.

Low 61 A little muggier today, but not too bad. Typical hot summer day...perfect for the weekend.

Dew quake?

Other than last weekend the humidity has been fairly tame so far for summer. It’ll get muggier to start the work week, but we’ll bring them back down after Wednesday. Then we’ll see how that d10-15 trough shakes out. Trough axis may be just a bit west of us.

Pretty comfy dews in RI this afternoon. You would think the torch lovers would tolerate low 60 dews better.

Perfect summer day with comfy dews. A little higher in CT, but temps are lower there.

I did the same thing for the missing day in 2014. Anyway, when Steve ran the numbers the much lower mean for HFD compared to BDL stood out to me. Now that I know HFD was missing data it looks closer than it originally did. I forget if 2014 was the previous year where we kept bitching about the BDL temps, but historically, BDL has almost always run cooler than HFD for July.

We've had a few incidents of poor maintenance around ASOS sites...like CON dumping rocks around the ASOS.

Cool...I’ll use HFD, ORH, and PVD.

Well I’m tossing any BDL or BOS number. I don’t remember what you said or what I said. I’ll go +1 to +2.

U40s at SLK, BML, and HIE this morning. Brutal airmass. Looks at the treacherous dews advecting in from NY/PA/NJ. Thoughts and prayers.

Warm night in the valley with return flow. Mins of 68F at BDL and 69F at HFD. Didn't have to go far north to hit 60F at BAF though.

Low 59F Was a little chilly with the fan blowing on me all night.

Must suck having such a low tolerance for mildly humid air. Dew allergy?

It's been a very difficult stretch here. Almost as bad as France and the UK. 07/22 72.7 62.5 0.95 9 0.0 0 07/23 70.5 59.5 0.36 8 0.0 0 07/24 77.1 58.2 0.00 16 0.0 0 07/25 78.9 53.4 0.00 10 0.0 0 07/26 82.5 57.2 0.00 9 0.0 0

64F on an evening Davis. Wow...that's some dry stuff.

Had to look when I read this. Glad we here. Most of New England is low dews.

Didn't see Ryan's actual numbers for his forecast through 7/31. Looks like 89/59 at BDL today.
