Summer update II: As of July 10, SNE region's 4 primary climo sites are all solidly above normal nearing mid July

[Damage In Tolland]

this seems irrelevant.

Bob has gotten 7 reports on this already

[Baroclinic Zone]

I honestly don't know what to think. All I am concerned about is winter is short enough. We don't need to lose another montb

You should probably move now.

Barbara Conrad is offended.

LOL...wow talk about obscurity.

Yeah something like 10 per day per poster. There we have it. A new rule is born. You still have 9 more today so use them wisely

[Tropopause_Fold]

depending on the timing of the late week trough next week...the second half of the week could really be warm as some of that mid-west heat tries to eject east.

of late the trend has been for the NW flow aloft to be just enough to deflect the worst of it S of us but it's going to be close.

Yes.

First, there are those that may try to argue the significance of it either way, based upon their personal agendas (then persuading their perception of things), but the hard facts are as follows as of the 10th of July.

ORH: +4.5

HFD: +4.3

PVD: +3.7

BOS: +4.6

Wow! Amazing how much different the first 10 days have been in SNE vs. NNE!

Departures in my area are a little different...

Morrisville-Stowe Airport, MVL.... -0.1F (essentially normal) Last 3 days have been -4, -8, -6.

Montpelier, MPV... -1.2F

St Johnsbury, 1V4... -1.8F

Interior VT is running -1F to -2F below normal so far.... quite the difference from the 4 SNE sites.

[powderfreak]

TORCH!!

Huge torch. These departures are just staggering... been a rough month so far in New England.

-1.2 at Montpelier and -1.8 at Saint Johnsbury...two long running climo spots in this area.

Glad we're not there. Whew

Yeah the elderly are dying in droves up here.

The vacationers are loving it though...sunny day after sunny day and good sleeping weather and warm afternoons. What's better? No one wants to sweat profusely while on vacation hiking and biking and enjoying the outdoors.

[CoastalWx]

You forgot -6.6 in West Chesterfield.

Noone wants to be bundled up in pants and jackets when they go out to dinner or breakfast either. Shirts and tees all the time in summer, no extra blankets and windows closed

Similar for some NNE locations, though lower magnitude as we were farther from the heat dome.

CAR...+1.5

BGR...+2.8

PWM...+3.7

CON...+2.0

I think PWM stands out because their coastal location kept them out of the 40s Mon-Tues while the offshore winds held off the seabreeze cooling most days.

Huh... I would've thought they were lower.

There must be a pocket here in VT of below normal...my guess is it might be from the great radiational cooling conditions we've had so far this month with the high pressure, no clouds, and no precip. The daytime highs haven't been that cold.

Summer is back

Toilet gone, vanity gone, laying cement board attm

Tropical talk in a New England thread... at least Ray, Scott, and Phil know what they are talking about

Renovating your bathroom?

Quite the moisture conduit on the euro into SNE on Sunday.

Showers firing up AWT

84/47 for 27% RH.

I've been digging these dews in the 40s lately. Feels hot in the sun but pretty dry warmth with only 25-30% humidity.

Thank God. Is it convective in nature?

This shows the difference between PWM east facing shore and my south facing shore from your numbers above: (first number under month is avg since 2000)

June

62.3°F

60.7°F (2012)

-1.60°F

July

68.9°F

68.4°F (2012)

-0.50°F

This is from my wx station records. And yes I know I am not an official NWS station. My station is properly sited and not under the influence of lesco lawns and foilage. Never-the-less, take with a grain of salt.

[CoastalWx]

At least some of it might be. I'm still a little wary of how robust it is, but like we said ove the last few days...rain chances will increase Sunday and Monday and at times next week with a front nearby and moisture. It doesn't mean everyone gets soaked, but I would think some areas get a decent drink.

You busted on the squirrel-cast so you can't be included.

Solid friend of fire / circle of sizzle / beautiful summer weather fan here.

Gorgeous stretch continues here in Boston.

Euro with another iteration. Mild down accomplished mainly by more showery and humid pattern before reloading late in the run for possibly more heat.
