I don't think I've ever had a summer where I have looked forward to fall weather more than this one. Corona essentially stole spring and summer from a social sense. Then this summer I feel like has been nothing but hot to me. Which I am not a fan of.

Today's date back in 2013 was the best severe storm T-Storm I've ever seen locally. 

This was all around my place and within easy walking distance.  Whiteout wind speeds with rain.  The Mansfield summit was something like 60G80 in a very short period of time... only a 5-min ob, between light wind speeds. 

I bet we saw a solid 50-60mph... maybe a higher gust peak (?).... that does more damage to interior (non-coastal) full-foliage forests than most people think during the summer season.  It doesn't have to be 80-100mph.

Sorry for the pics, but strong storms are hard to come by.

 

 

 

And you crazies want a repeat of 1938 and double the winds.

Anyone catch fred touchers meltdown on 98.5 this morning? Yikes 

Sad for him. But he is the reason I do not listen to 98.5 in the morning. Everyone else at the station is ok by me.

If Wiz can start a convective thread 7 days in advance, can we start a tropical threat thread 10-14 days in advance. Asking for a friend?

yes!

New convective thread imminent then? lol

EDIT: THERE ALREADY IS ONE! 

Hanna & Gonzalo......zzzzz. Bring me Isaias. 

Just a passing thundershower if we're being honest.

Gonzo looks like it might not make it.. 

What's the record for number of tropical storms in a season? (i.e. systems that maxed out as a TS)

Maybe today will work out. Who knows...all I know is NO MORE convective threads after this...none...zilch. Not happening ever again

Somebody save this.

My oak trees are dropping half matured acorns in bunches. Adjust your winter outlooks accordingly.

Can't say I remember seeing this before. Lots of younger white and black birch trees in our neighborhood have leaves going yellow already. The neighbors have a 40 footer that is turning as well. Lack of rain fall?

Unrelated but......nice boundary from Framingham to Brockton on radar.

77.5 F here. Refreshing.

The ground is wet. I think it came from above. What is this voodoo?

Many mets and folks here have been saying a 38 type cane is coming this fall. Let’s do it!

You wonder if we may pull a 55 type year with a Connie and Diane. What the first doesn’t take down, the second does kind of thing 

Why not both?

Anyone ever play the south course of Stow Acres?  Playing it this Saturday. What am I in for?

My oak trees are starting to drop acorns.......is that normal for mid-July? Product of the drought?

Most acorns drop in September.  Are yours full size?

Not full size. But found a few on ground and heard a few hit house other day (no wind).  Maybe just the squirrels fooling around up there, who knows.

The heat has caused me to retreat into the basement to work. 85 F in my office.

What's everyone's favorite weather to golf in?  I think mine is 60-65 F, overcast and a light mist.  You might think me crazy, but I enjoy it for the combination of comfort (not too hot or cold and really not wet) and open golf course.  If you find a course where the greens fees are good for the day you can get 36 or 54 in on these type of days. I love it.

Ok. Bring back 70F, overcast with a light mist (my favorite golfing weather honestly).

Pressure washed back patio this afternoon. Wasn't too bad temperature wise. Low dews were nice.

Completely ignoring Monday's marginal risk?

Playing Windham Country Club (Windham, NH) tomorrow. Shot 80 there last year when I played it first time.  Hoping for about the same.  Really wish this game wasn't so expensive. Perhaps an annual membership somewhere would make it worth it.

lol .05" since this am, everything zig zag around us ......

Thunder got just close enough that I stopped fishing around 615p.  But of course was only a light shower.
