i just hope we can cash in on something interesting if we get on the edge of the high/trough. models won't necessarily pick up nw flow disturbances well from far out but the pattern looks like it's a possibility at least. the euro kinda wants to do something sundayish.

Its been there on a couple of Euro runs now.

Kudos to the GFS at short range for the win today on temps.

Went for a walk after class and a good storm (ended up going severe) crept up on me. Could hear it thundering in the distance and it got eerily dark. Good thing I wasn't too far from the car or I would've been soaked because it came up on me fast. There were a few reports around the city of trees down, but I never saw anything except the prolific lightning.

Huge cutoff this weekend in New England?....going to be a battlezone here

I think that will drift further south. I still think that the shorter and longer term projections will try to knock the trough out and replace it with a long lasting ridge and I do not think that will happen this month.

If we can stick in the 60s today and hit 98 on Thursday, we'd get a record low max and record max within 4 days of each other. Little chance, but still interesting to think about.

While that won't happen, yesterday's DCA high of 71 was the lowest maximum for June 18th in 65 years. Also, it was lowest maximum for any June day since 68 on June 17, 2009.*

* I just noticed that we also reached only 71 on June 5th this year.

Humid this morning when I walked out the door at 7:45. Maybe I just wasn't paying attention, but it appears that temps for this coming weekend have been bumped up a bit. Looks like we're still in the low 90s on Friday, around 90 on Saturday and high 80s on Sunday. Looks like my run of low BGE bills is over.

My brother sent me a photo of a long string of power lines down about 1000 ft from his house. I vaguely remembered experiencing a good thunderstorm, but it was fleeting.

both the euro and gfs are focusing in on next monday now though it looks like it would hit places southeast more. and it's kind of a weird setup the way the trough drops in.

I'd rather see some anomalous cutoff than 88/70 the entire week....summer is boring...I'll talk about it either way though...I gave plenty of attention to the cold snap...as far as my outlook, what's done is done...I've been wishcasting slightly, but I do think the final week is up in the air...

Yeah maybe tho it sure looks like we trough for a bit. Fits the pattern of late. I love summer but I wouldnt mind some more cool if it's going to be boring.
