I guess I haven't missed too mch whille I've been down here in NOLA. Very eager to get back into the old stomping grounds tomorrow, even if it is just to some wet weather.

Quick question for Scott if you're on. What's your thinking on turblance tomorrow? 8:00a.m. flight from NOLA to Charlotte and then conndecting to BDL with a 2:00p.m. touchdown.

Pretty bouncy flight when I came down on Tuesday.

Charlotte to BDL may be bumpy at times. It doesn't look too bad at first, but I look at satellite images too, to determine turbulence and obviously I can't see that on a 24 hr turbulence. However, it doesn't look terribly rough, but there may be some bumps for sure.

Great--I don't want to spill y diet Coke.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sounds line a statement a salesman would make. Over-generalization with little specifics.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but up to today, only one station is positive for this month, BDL?

I think they all are now except for PVD which is up to 0.0 with BDL leading the way as usual at around a +1. This kind of pattern is good for piling on the departures though as a +10 low adds roughly 0.2 to the monthly departure by itself, and a +15 low adds nearly one-third of a degree. Yesterday added nearly half a degree to every station's departure. A few more days with these massive low temperature departures, and they'll all at least end up in the +1-2 range. With no real cool air on the horizon in the next week, looks like September is a lock to finish above normal. Perhaps not a torch as there's only so much damage you can do with overnight lows, but a warmer than normal month nevertheless.

Bingo. Not a torch. Just your average ho-hum minimal above average month. Pete and Kevs torch/siberia shtick got old 2 months ago.

Call it what you will, it looks gross no matter what.

Looks like the temps are a cooler in a line from Litchfiled, thorugh GC and up through northern ORH county. Wander what that differential might portend (if anything) for heavier rain placement.

Meanwhile, my station should be in the trusing hands of the Davis folks. Hoping for a quick repair.

I call this month normal. Nothing out of the ordinary. Sure there have been days above and below normal. It's tiring waking up to seeing dumb posts on "Torch" no "Tundra" etc.....

Goodmorning Bob,

So honest question, its going to be above normal, humid and wet for the forseeable future, what should we discuss in a "banter" thread during the most boring time of year? You, said you wanted truth posts, well, the truth is we are going to have monster positive departures at least the next 7 days if not longer, All sne stations should finish 1.5-3 for the month.

Kind of a huge spread you picked there. :arrowhead:

I'd pick closer to the 1.5.

Yes, we are in an above normal regime right now, but we just came out of a pretty negative departure regime and some people were calling that a torch.:whistle:

There was NOTHING about last weekend that was a torch, it was just as impressive cold wise as its warm now, and was the first two weeks of the month if not even more impressive. About the spread, locations are all over the place right now, bdl is warmest, down here even though southern ct is not considered new england BDR is already +1.7, so the spread station to station will be huge in my opinion. Good news is we may salvage some of the weekend! Happy Fall :snowman:

I usually love it when I come on in the morning and see the torch/tundra debate going on. What's better is when there's a posts that go back and forth debating the said debating.

This just makes me look forward to winter more, although I will have to make due with soggy 70's for a bit longer.

71f and a crap load of humidity right now.
