I need to get get going on excavating (patio) out an area for a hot tub we got from my wife's parents and I was hoping for somewhat of a respite.

Logan11 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Would it be shorter for you to go to like Hampton Beach, NH? I know some people in ENY go there, but Cape Cod is by far the main beach vacation destination for people from around here and that's a four + hour drive. No such thing as a day trip to an ocean beach from here of course. On 7/20/2011 at 3:20 PM, HubbDave said: Stick to body surfing.

Logan11 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 It's 80 outside now...after a nice low of 59. I could hold off till tonight, but I think I'd use more energy if I let the house get up over 80 and have to cool it. So given the nasty sleeping situation tonight I'm using it. I've had it off since Tuesday evening a week ago. This heat wave looks atrocious and I'm not as tough as Pete. quote name='moneypitmike' timestamp='1311175415' post='821633'] Are you really?

Typhoon Tip Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 This is the hottest I - personally - have ever seen the thermal fields modeled on the FRH grid for any location betwee NY and Boston: 54000485121 -1094 092708 83362718 This is LGA's virtual sounding and has +36C at 980... I have never seen +27C at 900mb on this grid, which is what that 3rd douple value has... This is probably 40 or 41C in the 2-meter, or 104/105'ish if verified... for LGA... Boston is 3226 ... probably 99 for that same time, 18z Friday... Again, my experience is that the NAM will tend to close BOS closer to LGA as the time gets inside of 48 hours on these WSW wind/warm sector scenarios.

Logan11 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 NYC is going to be a nightmare of filth, heat, humidity and sweaty people. The subways will be like hell. I'm so glad I didn't have any work to take me down there this week. I'm going out I-90 to the little town of Lyons...midway betwen SYR and ROC to a courthouse, etc. tommorow. Should be stifling hot, but not like dealing with it in an urban area.

Typhoon Tip Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 It may have been Ryan who pointed this out the other night and it appears to be occurring now... The smoke plume is clearing from the W and rather abruptly there is a modest CU field showing up just post the western rim of it... interesting. It is probably muting - so far - our temperature potential for today by a couple degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Once again the GFS has bounced back to its former position of showing a decent cool down later Saturday through Sunday here. By cool down I mean from low 90's Friday to upper 80's Saturday to low/mid 80's and less humid Sunday. I hope it verifies.....

Logan11 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I'm thinking this airmass Thur/Fri is the purest discharge of the supper hot airmass though. I doubt next weeks is quite as hot and the sun angle is a week lower. IMO this the heatwave of the summer. On 7/20/2011 at 4:56 PM, Typhoon Tip said: Yeah, i've been mentioning this for awhile now...

I doubt next weeks is quite as hot and the sun angle is a week lower. IMO this the heatwave of the summer. Perhaps ... Keep in mind though that the hottest readings in our neck of the woods are August found. Also, one thing I am noticing about that big ridge signaled is that the lower troposphere is out of phase with the mid-lvls, ...kinda of keeping with your "purest" idea. In this case, the height may balloon but the llv gradient may not be available to transport. Of course, ...could all just be depictions errors due to the long lead, too.

Typhoon Tip Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 also, folks watch the convection over/near Lake Superior... Models have convective QPF migrating through S/SE Ontario and deflecting that E of us but I have my worries... These MCS tend to ...well, ALWAYS go S of guidance as they tend to turn SE along the geopotential isopleth gradient - why the models can't physically handle that I am not sure.. Anyway, we see what it did in southern lower Michigan with MCS that punch into the ridge, and they are just now 80F in a few locations where there is Heat Warn underway.
