T. August Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 It was a hot one today. Got to 86.5F here before the t-storm hit around 3:20PM. The temp dropped from 85F to 71F in about 30 minutes. Got .47" of rain today. Regional highs- BWI: 91F IAD: 89F DCA: 92F RIC: 88F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Humid. Hot. Sigh. Anyone spare some rain? You are welcome to some of our rain down here in South Central Texas. We have yet another MCS full of heavy rain making its way across Texas, lol. In some parts of TX this is starting to get ridiculous. Houston got waterboarded with 11 inches in ONE FRIGGIN' NIGHT a few days ago. We have seen at least 7 inches in the past 8 days, with about 12-16 inches this MONTH geeze. There is standing water EVERYWHERE! We're progged to get another 3 inches tonight, then more storms forming along an old boundary tomorrow night, then a front will come south Saturday night and get hung up over the Austin/Buda Corridor and more rain will form along that boundary into Sunday morning. You can have our rain any time you like. I gotta get started on my Ark lmfao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOfClimatology Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Looks like we'll get a temporary break from the warmth early next week with the backdoor trough. Hopefully some nice rain/storms on Sunday as the boundary passes through. The warm look continues in the long run, though. The EPS, GEFS, and GGEM ensembles all bring back the heat after June 5th.

snowfan Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Agreed. It's nice out. Storms on the eastern shore dumped some healthy rain totals overnight. Looks like the Kent island area got 1.5-2.5". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the Kent island area got 1.5-2.5".I noticed some flashes of lightning during the night from those storms. Looks like a more widespread rain coming Sunday and into next week. 68 this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high risk Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 ugh. models trending away from a good Sunday/Monday soaking here. still think that most areas will get at least some rain, and some areas will probably cash in nicely, but the chances for widespread heavy rain seems to be diminishing.

Now it's mostly sunny with a 40% chance of a storm. I know how that usually plays out. I have a feeling it's going to be a long summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandymanColumbusGA Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Gearing up for a hot summer here in Virginia. Hopefully the 4 summers I spent in Georgia prepared me for this! Oh, and I've learned already that we need to cut modeled precip in at least half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Alright, I'm done. Too hot. October yet? This is shaping up to be an absolute disaster. It's May 30 and it's already been deep summer for a solid month and I'm already in solid drought conditions. The "cool-down" for next week has already turned into upper 70s and mostly dry. I know how that goes here; it ends up mostly sunny and +5F warmer than forecast. Still nearly 4 months of summer yet to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOfClimatology Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 The trend I'm seeing on the ensembles is a westward retrogression of the circulation in the NPAC in the long run, with high heights developing in the GOA/NE-PAC. That's a double edged sword, in my opinion, because while it'll lead to a few backdoor style troughs here initially, it'll also begin building higher heights so our south/southeast in the long run, which is a much different beast than a ridge centered to our north, at least when it comes to heat/humidity. We all know the drill there..once that return-flow starts up after the 1st or 2nd backdoor high, the SW flow initiates and we melt. This is pretty much what happened in June of 2012.

smokeybandit Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I just fully hooked up a new water barrel and fixed a gutter piece on the other side of the house. I was out there all of 20-30 minutes. Sweating like a pig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOfClimatology Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Haha, how did we handle 2010-2012? It was consistently 10-15 degrees warmer than today, with much higher humidity. The last two summers have spoiled us. Going to be interesting when the next real scorcher comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
