Yes it was less humid today for sure. Locally there is no downsloping here though. He is a few miles NE of me, and its all flat and rural, and no direct bay breeze impacts. Just seems odd there would be a 5 degree difference without some sort of frontal boundary around, or a difference in cloud cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greensboro and Goldsboro are literally a few farm fields apart lol. My station sensor has a shield, plus its only briefly in direct sun in mid/late morning. I have a secondary temp sensor on the north side of the house I use for reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakkelWx Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 My station is elevated off the ground in the middle of a grass yard. Isn't yours @C.A.P.E. right next to the woods? There are hardly any trees for about a mile and a half each direction here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are hardly any trees for about a mile and a half each direction here. My house is directly in the woods. My station is a few feet off the ground behind the house. I like having a secondary sensor that is always in the shade- makes it easy to detect any errors due to sun soaking on the station sensor. Shielding/fan aspiration is the way to go to avoid high temp readings due to direct sun though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 In the woods, its kinda difficult to ideally place the weather station. I placed it in the ideal spot for accurate rain readings, so it isn't under the trees. Still a decent spot for temp readings, although it does get into direct sun for a time.

JakkelWx Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Insane CAPE values of over 6000 J/kg over western Nebraska and causing an absolute light show in western North Dakota right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakkelWx Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 If the 06z GFS verifies for the July 9th - July 15th period, get ready for some very hot days and hot nights in the upper 70s inland and low 80s along the Chesapeake bay. Probably won't verify that hot though, but it's a fun run to look at for heat lovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This spring/early summer has been surprisingly comfortable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 GEFS has 0 to +2C temp anomalies over the next 10 days, and beyond. Basically normal for around here. Looks like plenty of 86-92 type stuff. Also looks generally dry. No surprise there. We always seem to go dry when the sun is strongest. My grass is already burning to hell in places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakkelWx Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Another day of 7000+ j/kg of CAPE in the great plains right now. To add to that, new cells are rapidly developing right in the bullseye of that CAPE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile there is a well defined outflow boundary combining with a bay breeze showing up nicely on local radar moving westward from Delaware, and it cant even pop some drizzle.

WxUSAF Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Was on the very edge of that small eastern HoCo/western BaltCo cell around 7-730pm while at my son's baseball practice. Sun was out the whole time and it rained for 20 minutes with a double rainbow. Nothing at home. But now that new cell is heading my way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
