Yeah, funny how caught up in the weeds forks were yesterday, and their posts reflected that with all those homages to autumn and how the summer was over. I warned - yes I did. Not that this is going to happen, but...at D7 seeing 20+C 850mb air over southern Manatoba is preprecarious even for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH's seems to contradict the report saying that there were up to 100mph gusts in eastern CT and the fact that the tract was not too far east of them. I guess it still begs the question....just what were the winds like? BTW, I didn't know that Wunderground had that data....I'll add that to my links. Thanks!

There was a few days where it looked warm for later next week...I think I even mentioned that a day or two ago. Looks like a decent cool shot (esp for NNE) beginning of next week, then the warm up later next week...perhaps very warm. I think there was some joking going on too...but the first sort of autumnal storm always congers up thoughts of Fall. I know my mind wandered..even though I knew last August 31 was like 96..lol, so it can get hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Going out to build the pit, was going to do it this weekend, but the weather is so awesome, much rather sit outside tonight with the wife and enjoy a fire and some margs than rot in technological hell.

nzucker Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Felt hot today, even though the high of 84.9F is just slightly above average. Big change from day after day in the 70s with rain, had to flip the A/C on for an hour and will probably be sleeping under its hum tonight.

Nice 31 degree movement. We only went up 27 degrees. 51 to 78 Wonder if I can go the rest of the year without AC. We did run it for a little while after our trip, just to get some of the mustiness out of the air. 11 days since we were at 80F Istink at math! only 9 days since 80F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been kidding around but honestly it has been so cool and beautiful up here, 3 of the last 4 days in the 60's and today sunny mid 70's. Easy summer livin'. Don't get used to it.

HoarfrostHubb Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Joe, they do sell iron fire pit rings that can be surrounded by blocks... but yours has that back wall which will throw heat back atcha.
