ski MRG Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 BOX going toasty for Pete! 94 thur 93 fri 90 sat If I were a betting man I'd bet against a 3 day run. Walked 9 this afternoon and it wasn't bad. I'm digging the heat because I feel this will be the zenith for nasty hot weather for another year. Soon we can turn our attention to first frosts.

Yeah, I am thinking you only get 88 or so on Saturday (hope the same is true for me) Still, for you to hit 91-92 is pretty hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend just got here from Alaska, he's already wilting.lol We're playing 18 tomorrow afternoon.Should be very comfy for him. I'm drinking water like Kev guzzles beer.

Typhoon Tip Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 It's clear where the "drying" is coming from - thank goodness, let's hope it works out! There is - and is quite common in these scenarios - a lee side heat-related trough along the 95 corridor pretty much up and down the length of the EC. This is important because that trough represents a significant wind shift during the day on Friday; it's not related to an actual boundary, but the pg is bending around it such that you end up with WNW or NW wind west, WSW/SW east. The area west of the trough axis gets the katatabatic drying, and the trough axis acts like a dry line that then move east in the environmental flow. This/that is not an uncommon scenario. It often robs good fropa events of better convection because you get premature cumulo-ejaculation that wends out to sea and takes a lot of CAPE with it. In this case, less fropa but perhaps if this feature evolves this way we get some DP relief on Friday. But, if the DP drops off by noon, we could end up with a truly searing +T response/spike.

Logan11 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 58/86 here today.... I am in a/c now because the dew point is miserable and I need sleep etc...going out to the Finger Lakes area early tomorrow for some work. If I were a betting man I'd bet against a 3 day run. Walked 9 this afternoon and it wasn't bad. I'm digging the heat because I feel this will be the zenith for nasty hot weather for another year. Soon we can turn our attention to first frosts.

Is the bolded due to it requiring less energy to heat up a dry parcel than a moist one? You are gonna cook in Ayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Like Steve I had my doubts but this heat will perform. Today looked like a dud until the temperature quickly jacked up 10F in the Boston area during the early afternoon. Today's high was low 90s, tomorrow L-M 90s, but downsloping inferno Friday with post FROPA but hot dry day Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattmfm Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Looks like the truly sweltering DPs only make it to BDR or so tomorrow (75+). DCA is 90/77 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Mmmmmm... delightful right now in N. Falmouth. I picked the right week to bring the wife and baby (and dog) to the Cape. For once I'll be cooler than Pete in the overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Windcredible! Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Torch is on! Temp really struggling to fall here in the valley. 86 at ALB at 8pm. Though I'm just 2 miles away and down to 82. Still...the 70 dew keeping it nice and steamy. Had such a comfortable start to the day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#NoPoles Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 wonder if that MCS just north of the border near the UP will round the periphery of the heat dome and drop into New England? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Theres a Best Buy at Berkshire Mall just above PSF where you can buy a cheap $200 window a/c. LOL I have a small fan I bought in 1986. It's all I need. My wife wouldn't like the a/c option. She is actually into hot weather. It's a bother.

The only reason we're not in AK.lol I think you would enjoy AC... you could turn it wayyyy down and put on your ski gear and ski down the stairs 73.1/66 Last night was nicer, but we have the AC off Heading to Jamestown, RI tomorrow to help my mom with some chores.

Fatherhood has been great! Tiring at times but I love hanging out with the little guy. I generally can take the heat back in Greenfield b/c we cool off nicely at night but glad I'm away for this stuff! Can't believe you are down to 70. Won't beat you until the fog thickens a bit.

Logan11 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 That's what makes late July heat bearable.. Knowing that relief is a month or less away with the seasonal shift of the jet. May or June heat depresses me a lot more. Just a few months until this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
