We won't make it up here... low of 48F and a high of at least 83F so far (today may tie the warmest day for July if it hit 84F between obs), so only a 35 diurnal range it looks like right now. Wow--stayed cooler down here. We got to 81*, down to 79* now. It looks like several spots here wound up like here, while lots of mid 80's down in the Valley.

Ginx snewx Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Classic Weekapaug RI beach day. Upper 70s crystal clear warm water and crystal clear sky. Occasional rideable surf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 The sky is pretty awesome right now. There are towering CBs going up everywhere. Crazy how fast these things can form as they pass over the high terrain of the Spine. Went from bright sunshine to cracking thunder and some impressively quick vertical development of the clouds in a matter of minutes. Orographic trigger though looks like this will miss by about a mile or two to the south. Impressive thunder and lightning though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Nice to have a dry 10-14 days straight after the soakings all summer. Dry the ground out and clean cars without dirtying them up driving in the rain . Just clean the bumpers and windshields daily of the bug mashings.

powderfreak Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Today seemed like a more classic summer day than anything over the past 7-10 days up here. Temps were bouncing around from 80-83F from noon onward with dews tickling up into the low 60s. You can certainly feel the difference with the tick up in dews today as Td's of 47-52F recently have felt more fall-like even in full sunshine....but today in full sunshine at like 82/62 it felt like summer with a bit more of a haze in the vistas from the mountain. On top of that, there were pop-up thunderstorms that seemed like just air mass thunderstorms with no real synoptic forcing. Stuff that developed over the higher terrain and off the lake breeze boundaries and is slow moving with lots of thunder. Looks like a couple tenths of an inch ended up falling here but just south of here in Waterbury Center it looked like there were spot 1-1.5" amounts. Afternoon/early evening thunder and brief downpour leads to a very humid evening as that rain just seems to jack up the low level moisture...go outside and dews now into the mid-60s feels very much like a summer night as opposed to the dry air sharp cool down of the past couple evenings.

CT Valley Snowman Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Pretty decent 9 days I had up in Maine. Warmest days in the 80s were on my arrival and departure days. Most of the week had highs in the mid 70s with lows in the mid 50s. Crappiest day was last Monday but managed to hit 69 before rain dropped temps into the upper 50s in the late afternoon.

dendrite Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Finished the month of July with 85F being the warmest temp. We'll probably break that this week. It'd be funny having May, June, and August all having warmer temps than July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hiked the 3 brothers and Big Slide with the kids yesterday. We were on the peak at 1400 and watched 2 of those boomers form north of us near Whiteface and start rolling east. Beautiful to watch from a few miles away and happy to not be under them on those exposed peaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 yesterday's convection/patterning of cloud cover vs clear sky was interesting... Down here in N Mass there were great, open expanses where there was no cloud material at all, zippo... pure blue. then, a single isolated tall tower that glaciated ...side-lit as the sun was going down. Usually you have a CU field with one or two over-achievers, but it was like one CB and no surrounding anything for 50 miles in any direction ..then another. weird. my hunch is that there was a dearth of DP in the boundary layer to offer parcels any SBCAPE, that then taking place under a temperature curve that offered a decent interval of steeper lapse rates farther above. ...go curve just no fuel...

HoarfrostHubb Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 ORH finished July with 9 straight negative departures and an overall -1.0F Also, -1.94" of rain. I was surprised at this.
