Yup...and, we have some towering pop-corn kernels already prior to noon suspended over the Worcester Hills up along the spine of the Monads... Usually that's marker for conditional instability... Some of those towers (est) already look over 12K feet from eyeballin' We've had a marginal vertical temperature profile all along but today we have ~ 5 deg of additional DP in the lower layers.

I did the same thing for the missing day in 2014. Anyway, when Steve ran the numbers the much lower mean for HFD compared to BDL stood out to me. Now that I know HFD was missing data it looks closer than it originally did. I forget if 2014 was the previous year where we kept bitching about the BDL temps, but historically, BDL has almost always run cooler than HFD for July.

Looks at the treacherous dews advecting in from NY/PA/NJ. Thoughts and prayers. Can tell a dry hot air mass when we have days of 52F min and 86F max (yesterday), followed by 53F this morning and now back into the 80s. I love the low-50s at night and mid-80s by day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin will never have an inaccurate summer month forecast if the month ends up above normal...just how it goes. If it’s hot in summer he’ll be right and if cold and snowy in winter, chances are he called for that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDL hits 90F for a few days, ORH gets to 82F or so, and most spots are upper 80s. Its takes about +5 or +6 on the average high at BDL for a heatwave.

I've been advertising this me self - Interestingly, the GFSX MOS teeters with a big heat suggestion for Tuesday ... 93s and 94s... I think that's 95 or 96 accounting for climo dimming - It's probably a fropa in there helping to better mix and transport a bit richer stripe out ahead.
