August Discussion


TauntonBlizzard2013

August 1st is the summer equivalent of February 1st. 1/3 of summer still left.

 

The sun angle is the same as on May 11th.  I'm curious as to how many 90* days occur on average at the climo sites between August 1 and the rest of the year (and how that number reduces with each progressive day).

 

Tick tock.

Not sure how much rain makes it past PYM-GON tomorrow. Tough to get heavy rain far north from the warm front during summertime. Unless of course the front pushes pretty far north. 

 

I picked the wrong weekend to be back in my old NL stomping grounds.

 

Any early thoughts for next weekend?  I've got family coming out.....don't want them hanging in the house.  :)

12z GFS was like 80 miles offshore. Both shifted...you can't just look at how the wettest model shifted. 

I just go by how much rain is forecasted care less about where a front is, NAM is a soaker, GFS is lt rain showers, Euro is a steadier rain, makes a huge difference for our tournament in Taunton tomorrow.

The near shore ocean this year is colder for August 1st then I can remember. Just has not warmed up. for example last year Montauk Buoy maxed out at 25.3 C this year 22.0 C in July

My daughter took the ferry to Hull to visit a friend summering there. She was impressed by how cold the water is. In recent past years it's been much warmer. Throwback year we're having.

Normals from Aug 1 on...

BDL 4.8

BDR 2.0

BOS 3.3

PVD 2.9

ORH 0.6

 

As for how the number reduces, August 18th is really the day for BDL where the odds of a 90-degree day begins to quickly drop. The probability of a 90-degree day is about 1-in-5 from July 5th through August 17th, and then by August 23rd, it drops to 1-in-15.
