It seems many people who like it hot have a pool and/or a boat. Heck yes! No pool no boat but they are good when you can utilize them. I do the hammock with an ice T or the porch chair and wait for storms that now never come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtd208 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Picked up 0.30" of rain for the day. Current temp 58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Well a polar opposite (pun intended) morning from yesterday. Low was 52 earlier and dp plummeted to 49. Currently sunny and 55 with dp 50 and shaping up to be a really nice day!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically, hot, humid and sunny weather calls out to my inner crab-fisher. I call it crabbing weather because it somehow seems so right to spend a hot af day on the water, pulling up morsels of tasty goodness from the briny deep. Add ice-cold beer (and maybe an impromptu picnic bbq on the shore/beach) to the mix, and boom: * chef's kiss * heaven. So what are everyone else's favorite "hot weather things to do"? P.S. I do not have a boat but I do have a kayak. I mostly crab from seawalls/piers. I like to stay inside with the air blasting at 68 and play video games. Anything over 90 and screw that outside noise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Made it up to 76 as a high today (amazing for this time of year) and currently 72 with dp an amazing 48, with some scattered cumulus. Supposed to be a "carbon copy" tomorrow too, although I think a few degrees warmer. But with the high overhead, I expect we might decouple pretty efficiently tonight.

Looking forward to a backyard campfire tomorrow night to celebrate the end of my work week (currently on 4x10 schedule). This week has been very nice to work outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 No luck with any 40's in the peaks of the Welsh Mountain anticline but close yesterday and low 50's this AM. Today will mark 10 of the last 14 days with below normal temps.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, here's the local airport (KRDG) less than a mile from my house and at a similar elevation, and I kind of have to assume they have a better setup than I do: This is actually lower than what was recorded from the NOAA (highlighting is mine), though it says these results are still pending verification (which seems a couple of days behind): But you have raised a valid complaint in which my personal station certainly does not meet the criteria you have laid out. It's the first iteration of my PWS and therefore reduced cost was the prime motivator in getting one up and running. In the short term, I think I might want to rig up another remote sensor (Arduino, perhaps) to record and log shade temps. In the long term, I hope to be able to afford a much fancier unit. That said, one of the things I was most looking forward to when buying my house was to be able to log IMBY weather data over the long term, so your feedback (and post history, and personal website which is btw awesome!) is most welcome, thank you.

JTA66 Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 Been watching the heat ridge build in the Pac NW. I've often thought that might be a nice place to retire to. Sure, I'd have to give up on snow chances, but it might be worth it to avoid the heat & humidity of summer. NOPE! Scratch that off the list. I only understand about 10% of what HM posts, but he has a theory about the Hadley cell being displaced further north as a possible culprit for the heat up there in recent years. Anyway... Another awesome night of sleeping weather, got down to 54F overnight. Enjoy it while it lasts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are coastal, then yeah, they have more of a maritime climate (which frustrates many who like growing tomatoes and peppers there because it generally won't sustain the type of day/night temps that those plants like). But if you go back away from the coast further east on the other side of the Cascades (and the Cascades are where the snow falls there by the hundreds of feet each year and is used for drinking water for the states further south), then that is a whole nother place. E.g., Spokane, which lists about twice the avg yearly snow fall (~44") than we have here in Philly. I managed to drop to a low of 55 here this morning (a few degrees warmer than yesterday) and it's currently 78 (just above my high yesterday) with a reasonable dp of 51, and lots of fair weather cumulus. I did notice a pretty sunrise this morning with some tinges of red/orange/yellow so I suppose that is foretelling a little about what is to come.

Hurricane Agnes Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Looks like I reached a high of 79 for the day earlier this afternoon and am currently down to 73 with dp 50.

All this means is I do lawn work starting at 9am or before and piss off the neighbors....maybe by 8am with the V8 gas powered weed wacker and blower. 78F / DP 57F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
