Today's heat is kind of a "betweener" heat.  Most NWS sites are 88F as of 4pm, but driving around you get your 90s and 92s everywhere you go.  HFD is blazin' away, though.    And it is starting to feel like a legit dragon fart afternoon out there.   

 

I bet the temp is like 75 at midnight in the urban centers... that type of night.  Maybe even more; in fact it just prompted me to check and Logan NAM MOS has 76 at 06z with that off-shore component dumping the city's heat on the airport.  So get ready for a torrid evening if you don't have AC.   

 

This heat is really about tomorrow though. This sets the table. We plummet to 73F by dawn in the Urban centers, ...then, it's one of the mornings where the temperature starts to rise before the actual rays of sun bend over the eastern sky.  It's like the atmosphere is so sensitive to temperature rise, it begins to do so when the radiation of mere daylight umbras the horizon.   82F by 9am ....88 by 11 ...90 at noon, 94 at 1:30...95 at 2, 97 at 6 at Logan Airport.    

 

Tomorrow night is going to be really soupy shorts affair!

Slightly OT, but our recent rains have reduced our drought concerns to merely Unusually dry according to USDM.   They also have improved some of that situation in the Plains. 

 

I wonder what it would take to really dent that.  They have daily rakes of convection ...2, 3 and 4" totals on-going.

Bust-o-rama at ORH today...83F has been the highest hourly...MAV had 88F and MET 89F...woops. Seemed a bit steep with 850 temps around +16 though. Not sure why it was doing that.

 

 

What is their pressure coordinate (sigma) there?

 

I am asking because 16C adiabatic extrapolation on the skew-T does support 31C at 1000mb, but I am not sure if they may be higher than that.  

 

Also, I think the area DP being wet this morning cut into some heating potential imo

I'm not sure how it is spitting out the numbers it is in NH tomorrow with +17-18 850s. Maybe if it works out perfect ASH can pull off a 95F and CON/MHT reach 93F, but upper 90s?
