dendrite Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Down to 73/61 off of 87. Keep the dews a bit down and we’ll radiate quickly in the evening. Window fans will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno....kids went to the beach....I had to do some projects and it was hot....but nice being able to have the temp where all can have fun. My kid’s lips were turning blue the other day playing with their slip and slide. By 6 it’s already cooling off a tad with a steady south wind. Pleasant enough for dinner outside. I do agree 95/70 is tough except around a beach or pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 77/66 here. High of 84 I was actually able to see some students in my building today as they cleaned out their lockers. It would have been toasty teaching in person today. Remote learning has that one advantage. AC and a pool at the ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m moving in that direction but I’ll never enjoy high dews. I actually really enjoy this dry heat. Never would’ve even 5 years ago. Maybe not as drastic as you, I mean you violently hated dews/heat even just like 2-3 years ago it seemed...but I’m getting there. I think my bigger change in preferences has been in brutal winter cold. I want it to be 20-32F and snowing, ha. I have really started hating sub-zero cold the last few years.

Certainly wouldn’t want this all summer though. I’m also a big fan of the drastic changes that seem to happen up here...from a weekend of highs in the 50s with folks lighting wood stoves, to going on a run of 86-93 style heat right after that. At least it’s been real dry with great sleeping weather and 90 doesn’t feel that bad when relative humidity is under 30%. I have been enjoying the 40 degree temp swings.

I like that zone where you can do anything outdoors without feeling cold or needing an oxygen mask from choking humidity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have a big diurnal range fetish as many have noticed, but it's practical too. We left all the windows and sliding doors open last night and this morning the indoor temp was 59-60F. Before I left for the day I closed the south facing drapes and shut the place up tight. Even with a high in the 90s and full sun, the indoor temp late this afternoon when I got home was only 71F and very comfortable. It's already 72F off a high of 91F... we've lost 15 degrees in an hour and 15 minutes... so open all the windows and doors again and let the natural A/C work again overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely right. I feel like my kids changed me. These warm days has them outside and doing all sorts of activities without getting bored and wanting screen time. If I’m off, I’ll try to be at the beach or up north at Winni. 75 and crisp is nice for outdoor projects, but if I’m not doing that....turn it up a bit. By September, this grows old and soon those crisp days in the 50s are welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had a pool or lived near the beach I might embrace the dews more but give me 80/55 any day. Not like the kids can’t play outdoors. My kids were outside all during this stretch of 73/40 weather too. My 4 year old cant get enough of outdoors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryce seems to want the torch because he’s just always doing something with water lol. I’m sure if it gets to the 90s for a prolonged time it will get old. But today wasn’t bad I thought.

alex Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 These temperature swings are crazy. 44 to 89 - exactly 45 degree swing, and in less than 4 hours we are already lost well over 20 degrees and it's down to 62. Chilly - hot - chilly. Just about perfect weather lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree 95/70 is tough except around a beach or pool. I have so many outside interests now between the birds, yard, and gardening that I almost wish it could be like this all of the time. I was just outside chillin’ by the coop watching the fireflies light up the backyard. June is pretty awesome in New England. I love deep winter, but just wish it wasn’t so long. I’d like 10 months of this and then 2 months of deep freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 They finally arrived here... the bugs have exploded in the higher terrain. Climo has risen enough for them to prosper. They are ferocious in this wind-less heat. Black flies mostly, but the dog gets an occasional deer fly. Anytime the wind blows they can't compete, but damn these light to calm wind speeds let them come to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 This is so fooking stupid. Everything gets shunted southwest b/c we're nothing but crap here. I'll also be in NH at Hampton Beach during this time on vacation but still...this is fooking bullshit. Even scrolling through...nothing makes it here..just gets deflected to the southwest like there is a stupid bubble over us. The models are now into July...that's virtually towards the end of peak severe season. It's over...freaking over and we got crap to show for it.
