It’s definitely time to move away from the later winter/spring storm patterns and into the late spring/summer convection patterns to get our rain. Losing days to rain is getting tiring for everyone at this point.

Yup, every global has some mischief around for Fri/Sat, even if they aren't in 100% agreement with each other. A front sweeping east and some sort of low off Hatteras moving up the coast...

Breezy, 53 degrees, and no A/C installed yet. Made it to June 1!

Looks impressive… maybe even anomalous!

Still not sure what I was quoted for/getting called out on there... weather this week wasn't terrible we had a couple of nice days, but it wasn't that great either. Lots of overcast conditions, rained a few days, and now we have a 990 low tracking up the Appalachian's into the CT River for Saturday. Even after the low passes it's looking like drizzle and breezy conditions in it's wake until it pulls much farther north for Eastern New England. If this is COC - get to Planned Parenthood for a screening... Looks like the pattern will break next week (thankfully)...

If I had a dollar for every time it’s been mentioned in this forum that the Canadian model is “junk” in this forum, I would be able to buy it, cash. Of course it’s not total junk but it’s funny when it gets brought up when other models are not in agreement with an opinion on the forecast.

The common sense weather take is we are stuck in this weather pattern until we are not. Not rooting for it, but, hard to dismiss another terrible stretch of weather with an anomalous storm considering the last few weeks. Shit happens…

Impressive for late May...

So long Cape Cod drought…

Wow HRRR and HREF are wet for today. There’s a signal for some flooding possibilities between Narragansett Bay and the western end of the Cape. Jeez…

Today’s weather song of the day.

Maybe we will get neither snow or heat in New England. Double-whammy!

I’m not sure what we are freaking discussing here. If the models show its was going to be above normal, then we would talk about it being above normal. Every major global ensemble looks to be -5 to -10 for most of the next 2 weeks. I’m not rooting for it, just discussing what the forecast is. Looks to be active as well, with nice days mixed in. Jeez…

The weeklies are cooler than normal across the US the entire run out to mid June.

Another good yard work day for those who like to avoid swamp ass!

I know it's been mentioned a few times here, but wanted to make a point to mention https://windy.com for weather maps and models. It's come a long way from wind/waves that it focused on when it first started. They also have apps for iOS/iPad and Android. I'm seriously considering a premium subscription.

I guess I know which A/C unit will be my next!

The only thing you have been missing is warm season wishcasting...

Rooting for the GEFS???

Thanks everyone for the suggestion of the Midea's. I have seen those on Amazon. Is the install as easy as a standard window unit with the U shape of these?

I need to pick up some window air conditioners this season. Unhappy with a GE unit I purchased last year. What brands/models are folks having success with that last more than two or three seasons? As much as I like to do things to help the environment, these high efficiency window units don't last like the units from the "good ole days". And before you ask - can't afford mini-splits... yet...

It's May! Can't stand to post warm season related questions in the winter banter thread!

Yeah models kind have already busted positive a little for eastern areas. Radar looks active for most off the morning too. Subsidence has taken on a more north/south rather than east/west orientation.

HREF looks wet for central and western new england through Tuesday (12z means some of this has fallen already).
