From the WPC Day 6 to 7 By Wednesday and especially Thursday the cold fronts slowly pushing south could provide a focus for enhanced rain amounts in the East, which will be refined in future forecasts.

Currently 88/76 here with a heat index of 99. You might think its bad here, thankfully we do not have to deal with corn sweat.

Maybe we start to get some better surfing waves by the mid to third week of August, not too crazy please, but maybe just enough to make if more interesting.

Mid Atlantic surf zone and offshore SSTs are on fire compared to last year at this time.

Pretty much insignificant rain for the Eastern areas, given the high temps and strong sun. Flooding concerns of 6 days ago are not going to happen, things have changed.

Very nice outside. Currently 80° with a dew point of 64 and a South wind at 15 mph. Better dog walking weather than last week

The WPC has decreased the rainfall potential this weekend, and the 7 day total is generally decreased from the last update.

Appears rain chances are decreasing as a result of this overall pattern change.

Pretty cool journey this airmass took.

If this is correct, this is nuts for July 22 nd. Peak surf zone temps are normally mid to late August. Today's North Wildwood sea temperature is 81.0°F (Which is 7.2°F warmer than normal for this time of year)

Ha ha Delaware is the epi center, or in this case the oblong center.

Smelled very smokey here this morning near 7:30 A.M. I have not checked, but with the winds NW makes me wonder. For a couple hours it was a very strong smell.

Today overachieved the high temp here at 86, Philly hit 87. Looking forward to tonight and tomorrow. Currently 86/61

My neighbor works at a local Home Depot. He told me this weekend that the Halloween supplies and kits have arrived and they plan to set up displays soon.

Dew point continues to drop now at 62, wow ! But, cloud cover has increased and I see showers on the radar to my far South near extreme Southern DE. Going to time in an outside landscape project tomorrow and Weds AM., only because of the cooler weather and lower dews. Some folks tomorrow morning will be thinking of Fall, with thoughts about Fall coffees, pumpkin comes to mind.

@wdrag already mentioning FF pattern concerns up in his area of the NYC forum. Seems the PWATs will be climbing again as we head closer to the weekend.

Spoke to soon about heat not reaching extreme levels, there is a possibility we go higher than 95 degrees, however, at this time it appears the highest air temps will be North of us, where the Euro has 100 + heat . It goes without saying that dew points are going to soar again, along with thunderstorm potential.

Dew point 66 here presently, love it ! Tomorrow morning should be even better with lower air temps.

That was a real rainfall producer. Was coming down in sheets, no thunder or wind, just heavy tropical like rains. Dropped .65 here. Grass is happy.

Interesting cell near Chesapeake City, MD. moving generally SE.

Thats crazy, there is a storm as you mentioned to his NW, to me it looks like in North centreal MD moving East.

Mount Holly states there will be some mixing today during the afternoon hours, so dew points may not reach extreme levels at that time. Presently my DP is 76, very steamy ! Also, seeing some storms form in North central Maryland moving East. Worse area appears to be the Delmarva region where it almost reaches heat advisory levels. Increasing southwest flow will usher a warmer and more humid airmass into the region. Highs today will top off in the upper 80s to around 90. Surface dew points will generally be in the low to mid 70s, but afternoon mixing should keep dew points from getting into the upper 70s. Will blend the CONSALL and NBM guidance for dew points today, and that will keep dew points from getting as high as the NBM. Max heat index values will be in the mid to upper 90s, and near 100 in Delmarva, which will be just below Heat Advisory criteria.

Rather remarkable, no wonder why so many reports of flooding in the area this past month. This trend looks to continue despite a break or two.
