EC shuts off the heat rather early too.

 

But you won’t escape the humidity. You know this, we live in PA. It’s going to be humid nearly every day from whenever it starts until at least the end of August.

I was just coming on here to mention.  Out in your area it really throws any heat wave at all into question.   Drops temps 2-4 degrees from yesterday at 12Z.

I can deal with the garden variety, relatively transient heat wave that model trends seem to be settling on. It’s days upon days of temperatures well into the 90s that gets me.

May be a good compromise between the camps here.    The heatmeisters have been patient with our Memorial day record cold snap talk.

Saw that. We’ll see what the CMC does. It’s the last man standing when it comes to a historic early June heat wave.

CMC was still pretty toasty.  I think there is little doubt either way it is going to get hot next week.  Just how hot.

It’s difficult to impossible to get through the long non-snow season without BS-ing about off topic stuff.

GFS definitely tempered the heat wave....big time actually...due to clouds and rain from what appears to be the ridge breaking down much faster.

Lots of sports talk as well and winter forecasts in May. 

That too.  O's off the schneid, America's team (talk of the Dallas Football Cowboys permeates into all walks of life so no surprise there),  etc

Page 100. Hit the century mark. 

Thank you Masks, A/C, GFS and CMC hitting the mark on LR temps, and other off topic items.  LOL

Wait, you got rain? WTF? 

You are the dry gulch of 2021 so far.  We got 12-18 hours of steady light rain last weekend while you got nothing.  LOL.

Meaning? Tornadoes? or just heavy storms or that they missed the rain. 

Sad because the storm misses them.  Not a stratiform type of rain.  I am fearful I or anyone could come up empty tomorrow heading into a possible smelting pot of a week next week. Training is going to need Daxx to come over and water the flowers.

Yeah, I think tomorrow for sure. Let's hope the 12z suite trend cooler for next week. LOL. 

I just worry about tomorrow.  Hit or miss.  Someone may be sad.

Mostly Cloudy right now here, let's see if we can get some storms popping up today and tonight. Likely tomorrow for sure. 

Long range HRR suggests most of the LSV is waiting until tomorrow AM.  At least its not sunny right now.

A bit of a tangent, but we are taking a family vacation in August (my parents, me and my wife, my sister and her husband and 2 year old son, and my brother). The house we’re renting allows 2 dogs. Between us, there are 5. I think we’ve cut that down to 3 that will actually go, but pretty sure we’re going to take the chance.

We foster and have cats that are usually needing extra help and we take some or all when we go away.  I always tell them one cat but its usually two or three.  They are always clean and leave no issues behind.  I think people want to protect against a cat/dog lady bringing tons in.  Many places will not allow cats at all due to allergies.  Biggest fear for us is if they are there to meet us. 

So for my 5000th post I am going to dedicate it to @Blizzard of 93 to remind him that any snow we get this month still technically counts in the 20-21 winter season.  Keep up the hope!

I mean I’m sure it costs an arm and a leg to keep a house at 68 on the Outer Banks, but it’s not like these rental properties aren’t making a killing anyway.

If I ever went to a rental place that had a "lock" on the thermostat I would have to move to another location.

Generally expecting highs in the mid 80s on the coastline next week. It will be humid as crap though. 

You know, I am a rule follower through and through but I'm always challenged to follow my morals on vacation. There's a notice in our house stating not to set the AC below 74 degrees...are you kidding me? 

Yea, 74?  Really its not always the temps as well its the "conditioning of the air" unless one wants soggy papers all through the house.  

Just now, Itstrainingtime said:

I'm liking how there is a precip max of nearly 5" in eastern NC and another just offshore with the Outer Banks itself receiving significantly less. Interesting...

I have been noticing less precip down there but did not want to jinx you by saying anything.  You will definitely be cooler than us if the CMC is right again.

Yes! The pressure is off, I fully expect a 14 game winning streak to follow.  

I heard the Sox and Ray's lockers rooms were shaking in fear.

Oh, our upstairs is like the gates of hell. First floor master and no kids (yet) for the win.

That is one difference between me and some of you guys.  We have a long brick rancher with a finished basement so I am in the "upstairs" most of the time.  I do not have any protection between myself and roof except some attic space.

WPC says south central PA might not see much liquid after all:

 

WPC seems to be model mongering.  Maybe I should apply there.  :-)

Just now, Itstrainingtime said:

This is wrong on so many levels I can't begin to go into detail, but anyone waiting until June to turn on the AC will be judged by me. A lot.   

I made one small edit.   

O's win!

We made sure to run it for a few hours on the last warm, humid day last week to make sure it works when we really need it.

We have run ours hundreds of hours already since March.  LOL.  It would be 80 in here without it. 

1 minute ago, TimB84 said:

But it is June, so I can now turn on the A/C at any moment without a bit of judgment.

There should never be hesitation turning on the A/C when its in the 90's.   January or June.  Ha.

Remember, I thought it was too extreme with the appetizer for this event before our cold pattern came back and I was dead wrong.

The CMC has spanked other models, when it comes to temps, for months now so definitely not sure it is wrong but a week of 90's is extreme in early June.  I have to hope it away.  LOL. 

Nice this AM.  At least it should be comfortably cool in the AM for all into early next week.   Upper 50's and low 60''s.   Warm mornings do not arrive until close to a week from now.   Maybe a little humidity to go with the cool temps some mornings.

GFS and, to a lesser extent, EC try to break down the pattern late week. CMC’s hottest day is D10. We’ll see.

CMC is an "Open the shelters, bring the animals and lesser fortunate people in" type forecast.  Have to assume(hope) it is too extreme.

Hot, hot, hot coming next week. Wow. 

Summer 2021....right on time.  Wish it would not be as extreme as the CMC though.  Goodbye yards.
