Damage In Tolland Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 what seems like overkill? not necessarily going to be some horrible week of weather, but looks like a really solid chance that its cooler than normal. The cold. I don't think it will be hot or above normal, but I do think the wx next week ends up near normal with plenty if sun/cloud mixes.

ski MRG Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I'll go on record that the Euro is wrong again and next week ends up near normal. Don S has 2nd half of June torching with some monster hot analog yrs. Gibbs says retorch somewhere around June12-14 I love how the line in the sand keeps getting re-drawn. First it was suposed to be a record torch April, then that was revised to May, then the second half of May. After that it was a wire to wire torch drought for June, now it's the second half of June. It will be fun to see the line continue to be re-drawbn as we move through Autumn. You should hitch your wagon to another team of horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Torchey Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 BDL and ORH really making that final push for +5's for May, +10 and +9 respectively today, looks like they will both settle around +4.8 or so for the month, yet another well above normal month.

Not sure where you're living..but May came in another solid well above normal month in all of SNE..June looks like another. 12 or 13 months in a row of solid torch. Will it end before you move?

Will it end before you move? More than half the days this month failed to make it out of the 60's, there were only 1-2 days that could be characterized as summer-like. You beat the gong of torch as if a molten glob of the sun was going to break off and engulf earth. There simply has not been the searing blowtorch you've so hoped for. Face it, we've been in the weather doldrums for months. As badly as you want an extreme event you can't conjure one up by force of will. I've tried.

We had one mildish period the first week or so of the month and since then it's been much above normal..esp at night. Whether it's highs or lows or a combination of both..a torch is a torch. It seems you may be getting the definition of torch wrong. Maybe the hair is too long on your head and it's clouding your ability to reason..but your area was +3 to +4 for the month.

I agree with LL here. Sure it's cooler at 1400", but it's way above normal in GC. Again it's all relative. I'm sure folks at MWN observatory aren't saying it feels like a tprch at 50F even if it's +10. Yesterday, GC probably had the greatest + departures anywhere.

I've had a lot of lows in the 61-63F range on my weather station, which is well above normal for the Monadnocks at over 1100'.... I went with all stations being above normal on the June forecast contest, but I had the smallest anomaly at Boston because of the -NAO block. It looks cool with the onshore flow caused by the NAO block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from the Goshen station which is close in elevation though a bit of a warm spot compared to the glen here. Still, if you can count, there are 16 days this month that failed to make it out of the 60's, just as I asserted. As you can see, only a few days could be characterized as summery. It's been an average month with only a standard deviation from normal. Oh and look, it's been rainy too!!! Over 2/3rds of the days saw measureable precip. That my chrome domed, running shorts soiling, won't let the kids play on the lawn friend .....is a completely unremarkable May.

RIcoastalWX Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Saturday was foggy? I heard Sunday/Monday were mid summer conditions with record crowds. Nice start to the tourist season for those folks. The economy needs it. It was a pretty foggy weekend along the immediate beaches. No sun on Saturday until about Noon - the fog rolled back in around 4. Sunday was pretty much the best beach day with very little in the way of fog. Monday was interesting. Fog hung tough along the beach while Atlantic Ave had just a few fog patches blowing across it. (Amazing difference in such a close proximity). The sun was dimly visible until around 11am when a light S wind switched to the E and became quite gusty. While it helped to clear the fog, the sky became overcast and the temp fell about 10 degrees in 5 minutes. This lasted for about an hour. Those that decided to stay were wrapped up in towels and sweatshirts. By Noon, the wind switched back to a light S direction, the fog rolled back in and sun was dimly visible again. At least the temps were tolerable again. Finally, shortly after 1pm the fog lifted and the sun was out bright until low clouds came back in around 6pm. None of the 3 days made it past the mid 70's and the dews never made it past the mid 60's. Traffic was congested with summer folks but not nearly as bad as it can be.
