NorthArlington101 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Had a nice pop-up downpour a couple minutes ago so at least I don’t have to go turn the sprinklers on. Hopefully I don’t end up the winner of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adelphi_sky Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Point-and-click still has 60% chance of rain for me tonight. Looking at the radar, I'm intrigued how this is gonna happen. It's more like a weak 10%. Unless something randomly kicks off some showers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Second day in a row of booming/cracking thunder, with no rain(well my rain gauge did somehow record 0.02" yesterday). Have had at least 3 other "events" similar to this, this month. I feel like I am in the desert SW or something with all the T & L and virtually no rain. eta- A minor miracle apparently has produced a 5 min downpour, resulting in 0.15" of rain here. Shocking.

Sparky Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I had a quick downpour early this afternoon that dropped 0.27". I'll take it considering the heat that is coming. Feels really gross out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 The rare excessive heat warning in effect here. Not too common as I am in farm country pretty far removed from the urban corridor. Forecast high of 100 for Sat with HI of 114. I will take the under, as it rarely gets that hot here. I will predict 97-98, with a HI of maybe 108. Would be cool to hit 101/115, but it historically has not ended up as extreme as forecast here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 84/74 (finally got a new station - mine got damaged in that crazy hail storm a few months ago) - but dew has been spiking to around 77/78 as we approach midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 We do heat well here. We got upgraded from an advisory to an excessive heat warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Steamy morning. Looks like Sunday might be the hottest day now. Forecast high is 98 for Sat and 100 for Sun here. Again I will take the under. Gonna be super oppressive either way. Looking forward to early next week. Impressive advertised h5 trough digging in over the MA. Hopefully the front brings some decent rain. Looks slow moving with possibly multiple waves moving along it. High of 83 on Tuesday and Wednesday. Yesss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Eff it. I work outside and decided to stay in the office today. Not worth it. When lows are in the 70s its going to suck. This heat is legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesss is right, that airmass change looks great ! Hope you are right regarding the rainfall. Seems we are in line for rainfall as we exit the heat, but the WPC trimmed down a bit on rainfall in our region for later Sunday through Monday night.

frd Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 @C.A.P.E. Some private met service providers going 2 to 5 below average Eastern half of the Country days 6 to 10, that is bullish ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah its a bit up in the air but the overall idea of a strong cold front, relatively slow moving, signals a chance at a more widespread event than we have seen lately. Some severe possible as well given the air-mass it will be moving into. Other than last Thursday, my yard has missed just about everything this month. I will gladly take an inch of rain between Sunday night and Tuesday AM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That frontal passage will be the only rainfall oppurtunity for the next 7 to 10 days once the drier airmass moves in, so hopefuly we all score.

Hopefully once this heat ridge moves out we can keep a mean trough in the east for a while with ridging out west.

( We are getting this heat right at the climo peak ) Wonder if the highest temps "relative" to normal still occur in September and October this year? Fits the decadal pattern .

Warm Atlantic , strong WAR I won't wager a guess, but one of the things that make late season heat more tolerable for me is the earlier sunsets. So for me, this time of the year is the worst of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
