Keep your eyes to the sky tonight if you live in some of our dark northern suburbs. The Aurora Borealis may make an appearance. It's only forecasted to be a KP5 but it does surprise us sometimes. I will be photographing it from the Adirondacks if it makes an appearance 26175e7f1ba1b3f6879e4df6e46e0dd2.jpg

Was quite visible last night from atop Mt Washington Observatory according to their Twitter page this morning.

ECM warmer than the GFS next week after the cooldown this weekend. May start to see models keying in on the next heat signal on/around 8/15.

Larry Cosgrove didn't seem to big on any substantial or lengthy cool down in his weekend newsletter so it's not surprising to see the models starting to show a warmer look again.

Yeah, i think the next surge of heat is delayed and not denied and we should heat up towards 8/15  with the WAR building in by 8/21 period.   As far as the weekend it wouldnt surprise me if things trended less cool and we are near normal.

I'm not seeing anything remotely close to the heat we've seen in July though, looks like more typical mid August heat.

Dews up into the low 70s.  Not sure if any ensuing heat will match the Jul heat upper 90s/100 but models are building the WAR west and plenty of heat out west could hook with the WAR and spread east.  As of now safer bet low 90s on/around 8/14.  Slim shot Thu for 90 or better in the warmer spots pending on clouds.

Interesting,  southern areas were quite humid last night made it down to 69 only with Dews climbing into the low 70s overnight.

Dews here were still in the low 60's last evening and the low was 64.  Warm front on our doorstep right now so we'll rise quickly

different story up here on the mainland.  Almost needed a blanket Sunday night-felt great.  

SNE is a different climate. And saying summers back in broken on August 6 is silly. We have a few days in the low 80s and now it’s fall lol come on. Late August we will bake

marine influence there no matter which way the wind blows...the sound is in the upper 70's....hard to cool down with that...here the winds blow from the north and it's cool air off the mainland.

Warm water all around us certainly doesn’t help. Your latitude is important as well. Even CNJ has been toasty, so it’s not just the sound

Late July is our hottest time of the year...that shouldn’t surprise anyone. Still a long way to go.

I was down in Philly where I grew up the last week, it's amazing how much warmer it is there than CT.   And it's only 150 miles south....

Different climate. The troughs dropping in from SE Canada don’t make it down there.
