powderfreak Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yeah....probably a lot of 80/65 type days for us. That's what I was thinking...though that would be a pretty above normal. Ave high is 80F so we'll be around normal there but lows in the 60s will bring departures up since normal is 55F and starts to lower as we go through August. But we are done with the 91/51 or 85/43 with 40F+ diurnal ranges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N. OF PIKE Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 pfreak Think u'd be more like 82/60 but I'm guessing and splicing hairs at same time. Hopefully we get something tropical to watch. Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I haven't looked at much because this time of the year just bores me silly. But this doesn't look very swamp azz to me ...on my local NWS forecast. It looks pretty blah and comfortable overall. 63 76 60 80 63 82 58 80 59 79 60 79 58 78 That's what I was thinking...though that would be a pretty above normal.

I always liked long beach island, especially the quiet parts, a good beach to me is to take a long walk and only see a handful of humans, and no towering condos or highrises.

ORH_wxman Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Looks like a pretty large error in the BOS CLI for today...they list BOS high as 79F at 11:47am, but the temp at 11am was 68F, and then it was 68F again at 12pm. It rose to 73F at 2pm which was the 6 hourly high reported at 18z...then the next 6 hourly high at 00z was also 73F. So it appears an input of 6F too high for the BOS high today.

I don't see anything extraordinary. But, what do I know..... Boy--another Flash flood watch in one week! I received .04 during the last one. Pulled off .03" in yesterday's deluges. We'll see what happens today. My bet is that it will all come tomorrow morning while I'm zipping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is wrong there, but BOS appeared to be a legit 77 at the morning 5z so the error probably is only 1 or 2F. The 79 may even be correct, but it didn't happen just before noon like you mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 79 may even be correct, but it didn't happen just before noon like you mentioned. I got a PM from Will about this, but didn't take a close look. Now that I have read this, I called the office and the HMT on duty will look into it more closely. She will dial into the ASOS and look at the 5 min readings. You may be correct...the 79 may be correct but the time is off, likely at 05z-06z somewhere in there. She will send a correction if needed. Will, thanks for the heads up. --Turtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Well--managed to get the front lawn done, though the last 20 minutes of it was in the rain. Upstream radar suggests the side and back lawns may get washed away and mowing cancel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Nice steady rains here since about 11 AM. Had some lightning and thunder for a time earlier. Nice to see the lawn getting some water, but it may be too little too late as there seems to be some kind of mold taking hold of the burned grass. I wonder if this means its dead?

Mitch--don't know about the mold. But, ours was looking awful up until a week or so ago when we picked up probably only .10-.15' of rain one night. That had started it greening by the next morning. Not lush, mind you, but I was amazed at how quickly it rebounded on just the lighted amount. Raining steadily here, too. That stinks LESCO can save it! It can do anything. Even polish your car.

Yeah, the grass that didn't burn as badly has recovered some from the recent rains, even though it hasn't been a lot of rain. The mold is actually black in color, so the brown grass actually looks darker than it should. I'd imagine the rain may make it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Yup and all of those reports are not serious. We really should reserve warnings for life threatening weather. 4-8" of water on a road (in places that typically flood, mind you) is not dangerous. Over warning continues.
