God I love this location for severe * At 547 PM EDT, a severe thunderstorm was located over Belchertown, or 8 miles southeast of Amherst But seriously though I doubt this one verifies. Classic SPS event IMO

No peas here but quite a bit of lightning, a good amount of rain, and a nice change to the airmass. Stein, we hardly knew ye

a little bit of storm scale rotation evident as the leading cell moves along 202 through Granby and Btown. Maybe someone could score a few peas?

About 10 years ago I caught 7 bats in my house until I figured out how they were getting in. Still have PTSD from the first night I woke up to one swooping back and forth over my head in the bedroom. But by the end I was a full on ninja capturing those things. Anyway, beneficial creatures, but no do not have a bathouse.

the nam was pretty often the first model to sniff out that the mid-levels are going to torch way inland... I dunno, that's my impression at least, others would be better qualified.

Is the rrfs available online so we can see how it does with convection? The 3km is hit or miss to say the least but the hrrr is borderline unusable IMO, at least around here

Everybody was so relieved today. Nobody outside this forum wanted another mid-upper 90s day, nobody at all. Not to say they want a full summer of todays but there's a reason everybody in Texas and Florida absolutely hates JJA.

One little pop up storm clipped the south end of quabbin

It's a Davis vantage pro 2, so yes, aspirated and radiation shield. But the issue is the siting sucks, scientifically speaking. In order to provide physical security at UMass we elected to put it on the edge a low rooftop. It's not black tar, but it runs a little hot from the surroundings, and UMass is a pit as it is. https://weather.cs.umass.edu/

The weather station I installed many years ago broke both its all time high from 7/22/11 today and it's all time heat index, crazily from 9/13/13. 101.7 for a high. High dp was 79 but 74.5 at peak temps. Not saying it's right, but on a relative basis that's impressive for a station that was set up nearly 20 years ago

I saw a PWS near the valley bottoms in Amherst earlier that was 98/85 LOL Literally squeezed between cheeks I think

Yeah 100/73 is solid

Extreme Heat Watches hoisted

That line turned out to be a massive fail as well.

Fargo?
