  1. Does anyone remember real cold fronts in the summer. The 88-98f degree heat is broken as a line of showers and tstorms passes nw to se through the area and within a few hours caa has begun on the heels of a decent northerly to northwesterly breeze. The next morning be is bright and sunny with cobalt blue skies, temps 50 to 60f and the day goes on to feature sunshine mixed with puffy clouds and max temps mid to upper 70s and a stiff but beautiful n/nw breeze 15 to 20 mph with a few higher gusts....dews around 70 tumble into the 40s and 50s.

     

    Where did these cold fronts go?? Now you get more fractured storms then a windshift to light north which goes light and variable. Dewpoints around 70 drop into the low to mid 60s and eventually around 60. The next day is mostly sunny with highs well into the 80s

    We are down 7-10” of rain here on the S FL east coast from Vero to West Palm in the middle of rain season!! It has been days of 90-94 with dews of 75; I’m done! 

    I don't know how anyone can live in that. I hope you get some kind of a non dangerous tropical disturbance to get some showers

    26. Absolute furnace dew of a summer 

    Thanks for the info. I thought it was only around 20. What a difference 90-93 with 60 dews as opposed to the same highs with 70 dews

    I would have loved to be in your class in high school, if you were a teacher. I’d write my name down and randomly circle a few answers…and collect a passing grade for just existing because a C- for a winter which produced 50% of your seasonal average is generous grading.

    I am getting soft in my old age, and having lived through the 80s seen much worse

  5. April 96 was no joke... I lived in Bristol CT in a lower elevation area near Tunxis College

    Rain and mid 40s became heavy wet snow within an hour or two. Was a quick hit but from 11 pm to 4 am snow fell at rate of 2/hour and occasionally 3/hour. Loud thunder and lightning...10 inches of paste on paved surfaces with a foot on elevated.

    A wild finish to an unbelievable winter

  6. Wow, only the 2017 event was  10-11 inches here...the rest all much less 

    Just mind boggling how well most of CT and eastern and central mass did 

    In 2018 we basically went 1 for 4 on the March and April stuff...I was in awe of what was going on elsewhere

    Meh, you aren’t missing much. I don’t think anyone is getting more than 2-3” in SNE at any point. 

    Its not always about the quantity. I would love a good squall, it's been forever. Even twenty minutes of a streamer like you and Will had tonight. After awhile out here you become hardened to it. We are still in a pattern more years than not which still favors the eastern and southeast areas. Sure there are a few more duds mixed in and NNE on the whole is doing a little better but still no sign of a more clipper and or Miller A dominated storm track
