Allenson Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 OT maybe EeK has the right idea in his post in NNE, posts every few days with no real insight or debate just facts. He is so Laconic, well that thread is great when JSpin, Dendrite, PF, Dryslut, Tamarack are getting snow but pretty boring reading wise. Like reading an encyclopedia, great facts but.... LOL. I've said it before but NNEers are a terse bunch on the whole and not prone to bouts of reactionary emotionalism. We stand as the last bastion of old New England Yankeedom. 56F with drizzle.

powderfreak Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 You know it's not a torch when.... the NWS is comparing the current set up to one we often see in winter storms...with 1-3" QPF down and another 24 hours of NW-flow: "Wednesday...nearly stationary and vertically stacked low (994mb) centered over northwestern Maine continues to bring good feed of low to middle level moisture into the north country via southern Quebec this morning. Northwesterly deep-layer flow in place up through 15 kft...and precipitation pattern resembles what we often see with winter storms...with convergence in the Champlain Valley and favored upslope enhancement into the central and northern Green Mountains."

Typhoon Tip Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I would never speak of any climate zone other than my own. What it does down in the low country is not my concern. I have a simple view of weather in the valleys and on the coastal plain. In Winter you don't get enough snow and in Summer you get too much heat. The fact of the matter is, despite all the incessant talk of torches to come all 4 of the SNE major climo sites are AOB for the month. This even after the "torrid" air mass you speak of. Forgive me if I'm skeptical of the "death by torch" nonsense. Typically we see one or two ninety degree days here each year. Sometimes several, sometimes none. When you are roasting at night in a concrete heat sink I am feeling the cooling effects of 10's of thousands of acres of state and federal wildlife management lands. The forest behind my house remains cool and shaded on the hottest of days. The most notable aspect of a hot day here is the smell of the pine forest as the pine pitch really heats up and runs in that weather. I am well aware (and thankful) that a majority of people posting here do not live anywhere near 1500'. While you may feel my view of the urban megolopolis is rather provincial I feel the same is true when it comes to the views of many urbanites wrt life in the vast expanse of territory beyond the I-95 corridor.How many positive departure days has Ayers seen this month? More than half? I think not. Lastly, an esteemed meteorologist such as yourself should avoid falling prey to the musings of a simple troll such as myself. Life and weather are very different here and the obs that come from those of us in the high terrain are just as important a piece of the puzzle as those that eminate from the densely populated flatlands. Yeah, I actually don't see the "torch" dialogue as being entirely useful, either. Nor would I attempt any argument about June's monthly means, to date. I try to be as object as I possibly can, at all times. If the day is cooler than normal, the day is cooler than normal - period. The same holds true for warmth. I tell you what ... the torridity of that heat wave was augmented by lack of acclimation leading to it. The day before it was 97 to 99F for a high, it was 68F. That kind of "shock and awe" for the lower elevation denizens makes the experience biased as being particularly ferocious, memorable, and not easily diminished by countering impressions of the heat event. The 00z Euro was just ...almost untenable with the heat for a massive area of the conus. It remains to be seen how much gets to our lat/lon.

Good point about the absurd snap in the temp rubber band last week. ORH went from a high of 71F on the 19, to 92F on the 20th. That made it seem very dramatic. It was also the first 80F day since May 29 at ORH ORH at -0.7F for the month. Today will probably not affect it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Windcredible! Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I'd just like to point out the thread title is inaccurate. Cool down June 23-30? Looks like today is the last of the cool down.
