It's broken. Models did a good job indicating more troughing over the east. Steve stuck to his guts so good for him. I think some just assumed the pattern would repeat since it was so stubborn, but to be honest....it was a real anomalous pattern. Not easy to have a ridge retro west and northwest and park over NY State while TX has record cold. Tough to repeat that. We'll have bouts of warmth and humidity, but the worst is likely done.

The ridge looks like it tries to flex again in the ATL again after 8/10...but its been pushed further out in time than previously advertised. The long range likes the idea of western ridging which keeps us in the longwave trough to its east.

With the exception of tonight, this is tough time to be wanting high dewpoints.  The pattern looks to continue to bring troughiness to the east which is not conducive to any high heat and humidity.  August might come in below normal...

 

An another note, BDL should put up another negative departure day today and lower their monthly average but I think they are going to make the record for the warmest July on record.  However, it's going to do so with a lower average high temperature than the previous three record July's.

BTW - never get seasick. I spent Sunday morning with my head in a garbage bag off of Newport.

 

Dude, I went whale watching the day before Hurricane Bob. The fooking swells were huge. They had a 5 gallon tub of dramamine...I swear. People were puking off the ship.

I spent yesterday 55 miles south of Falmouth in the shipping lanes tuna fishing. 8 ft swells in a 25 ft boat.

It was awful. We were on a 60 ft boat this weekend and I was totally fine Saturday and sleeping Saturday night. By Sunday morning we went out of the bay toward Newport and the swells picked up a bit and I literally threw up for 3 hours. I think the sun on Saturday and drinking during the day/night probably made everything worse - but each time the boat went up and down I stuck my head in a garbage bag. 

 

Still feel sort of wiped out - I think I'm just dehydrated.

Gross.  I'm going to repost this reply into the banter thread.  Seems like our 'pinned thread' is primarily banter these days.  Given the lack of anything exciting, I'm sure no one really cares.  But, there is a banter thread that's not really being used.

I had literally the same experience a couple years ago...was out on a boat my girlfriend's folks owned off Newport (watching the Newport-Bermuda race) and I was totally fine for like 36 hours. But then the drinking and spending all day in the sun apparently caught up with me the next day as I was sea sick all day long. Every little bob and weave of the boat had me leaning over the railing.

Yeah, even figuring we knock a few tenths off each day to end the month, I'm guessing we'll finish about 77.5 or so. 

 

After yesterday's -2° departure, they are now at 78.4° for the month, down from yesterday's 78.7.  Good guess on the temp....let's see how it works out but you're probably close!

Looks like today turned out to be a bit warmer than I expected (88/68) so the temp should hold right around 78.4°. 

 

With two days left, it appears that the record will be closer to 78 degrees, maybe 77.9º.
