It's not just about the pattern. There's a reason climo is climo, and even the mighty BDL 'mac has trouble getting to 90 after about the 23rd of August. If Ryan's 10-day is right, which takes us to the last week of August, yesterday and today are critical for BDL breaking the record. If you're expecting a late summer like '83 or '73 then yeah I guess it doesn't matter and we'll blow past the record, but I wouldn't bet on it. I disagree with that to an extent. In fact, you could argue pattern becomes even more critical. Late June and July..we bang bang out 90 "relatively easy"...you don't need that crazy anomalous pattern or airmass...earlier than that and later than that it likely need it more. The look on the pattern (at least through the end of the month offers a much higher potential for heat against average or below-average. With the strength of the western and WAR ridge's there is plenty of room and window to pinch heat into our region. We have to solely rely on troughs to dig in and for some actual cold fronts to move through. Maybe perhaps some weaknesses develop within the WAR but as long as it stays that developed it's going to take numerous trough ejections and fronts to really weaken in.

STILL N OF PIKE Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 If the Late month Heat holds BDL will break the record ...regardless of what they do today. I don't believe that late Month heat is a lock right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 One problem is we will continue to struggle with pushing any meaningful cold fronts through here. Given what is being advertised on the Euro and GFS we would see a plume of anomalously warm 850 temperatures push well into Canada and southeast Canada and then right into our region...almost similar to I think what happened in June...(just w/o the cut-off to the south). There offers potential to get a solid NW flow down the road...sure sun angle is decreasing but a downslope flow with dry ground at favorable areas are going to torch. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 12z euro too wanting to throw some heat our way. If BDL falls one shy of the record I demand every day that hit 89 be reanalyzed...maybe someone forgot to round. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if we can plant some growing grass around the ASOS we can convert 91 back to 89. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 There aren't many things meteorologically more riveting than BDL hitting 90F in the summer...probably only dew talk and my soil temperature. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 My high was 78.7. Ocean ftw. I have some time off heading into Labor Day so I’ll take a torch then, but Scooter is getting old with this. I had my fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 The heat is definitely getting a bit old here in the DV. Electric bill was awful, and along with the the heat we are also dry so without consistent irrigation everything looks like dog crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have...especially right after 18z when there was a string of 32C obs. But if they didn't hit it in that 20 min period it may have been tough because it was mostly 31C obs after that. Based on the 5 min obs I'd guess they did....I'd put it at 80/20 odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
