Similar to how many weather enthusiasts get excited by a tornado or hurricane I suppose. It’s great to watch from afar, but not so much personally.

Juliancolton Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 When this heat wave first started showing up in the LR, I had thoughts about heading to Westerly for the weekend but quickly came to my senses on that. Even places like Squantz Pond and Lake Waramaug will probably be at capacity for the foreseeable future. Pools and secret swimming holes deep in the woods are the name of the game I would think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing where to park and where the right a ways are and you can be on the beach with maybe 5 people. Key is getting there very early and making a whole day of it to avoid any traffic Knowing back roads helps too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Summer cool night in the upper valley, 66F outside and 72F living room with windows open. Let's just see what the torch bringeth. Portable a/c in play already this season and will probably install a window unit tomorrow. I love and hate, that we've come to a place, where window installation dates are a thing to discuss.

That high pressure position is much more favorable for coastal locations around that timeframe. But the I95 corridor is really going to cook. For days and days. Many of our interior friends are looking at quite the heatwave. Not jealous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 NAM tries to bd all the way to NYC on Sunday. 70s with sun there with 21C 850s. It’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out. I think Sunday will be tempered a bit even back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
