I see the HRRR near surface smoke forecast graphics on Pivotal, but they only go out to 48 hours (every 6 hrs); is there any decent smoke forecast model that goes out maybe 5-7 days that is available on-line?  Thanks. 

I just did a quick google search & came across the following link:

https://tools.airfire.org/websky/v2/#status

Has the GFS domain out to 120hrs.

I’m pretty invested at this point in seeing if we can actually score a cooler than normal summer (relatively speaking). I would have to think an eventual flip to our typical summer inferno is coming by mid July and is more likely than the alternative, but still I’m finding this pretty interesting. Especially with so much heat to our southwest. 

I think there is at least a 40% chance of finishing this summer a bit cooler than normal. I'm not sure at this point whether there is that typical mid July inferno this year at least not if this pattern continues. I think a day or two here and there of 86-91 degree warmth/heat is more likely this summer. I would think that whatever heat we would have if any August would probably be when most of it would occur. The current pattern is kinda locked in for now.

Sky here reminds me of Sunday---with some blue to go with the cumulus congestus.       Nothing happened here however.      The Predicative Radar says nothing for the Boroughs in the next two hours either................

By the way:      What is the AQI today?     Governor warned of bad air Wed/Thurs.

1980 - The temperature at Wichita Falls, TX, soared to 117 degrees, their hottest reading of record. Daily highs were 110 degrees or above between the 24th of June and the 3rd of July. (The Weather Channel)

 

1980 was another year in which Texas was baking to start the summer. For 21 of the 30 days from 6/19 thru 7/18 the record highs at Dallas are from 1980. The stretch included 11 consecutive days from 6/23 thru 7/3 with record highs.

Looking back at 1980 locally June was similar to this year temp wise. As the summer progressed July turned very warm compared to the averages at that time & Aug was a dry torch by any standard. It's the warmest AUG on record at Central Park & #3 for Philly.

Even if we stay in this current pattern we will be above normal. Overnight lows will run above to much above normal. While the story may not be daytime heat, it is a warmer than normal pattern because of overnight lows. The pattern is also showing some signs of breaking down. We aren't going to stay in this pattern for 4 straight months.

Thank you, I’ve really been enjoying your posts and analyses this spring / summer.

Smithtown LI - my weather station shows .62” from storms today. I’m out east in Port Jefferson and storms keep forming and cutting a little west of me here (into Setauket). Another one on way now. I know family has heavy rain further east into Shoreham area also a short while ago.

NWS Mt. Holly did damage surveys for Tornadoes that occurred on Monday in Northampton Cty, PA and Somerset Cty, NJ.  I am attaching photos below of what I saw in the Northampton Cty. Survey area.  The damage survey information is also shown.  I saw two wheat fields with damage and took photos of the one with the more significant damage.  As noted there was no other crop damage seen besides that in the wheat fields.  The second one had a few small spots with the wheat knocked down.  There are corn fields, soy fields, and stands of woods in the immediate vicinity.  I did not see any evidence of broken branches, twigs, or leaves on those trees.  Such is the fickleness of Mother Nature.

0.72" from that cell here.  Found the old milk crate we put recyclables washed down the street (was already empty, fortunately).  The rainfall total from the prior 3 days was only 0.20", mostly at night.

I just missed it all while driving back from Westchester County, but the traffic still sucked on the dry roads in the Bronx and Queens.

We are well within range and live a few blocks from one another - so your reading corroborates with mine pretty well. Healthy drink today so I won’t be watering the herbs and plants . Lol

Several of those years stick out as El Niño years. Is that majority ?

Finally some showers/storms today east of the city on the sea breeze front. One did clip my backyard earlier but the best has been just south/east. 

Looks like my place in lynbrook did well. Where I grew up in south wantagh and is still my dads house has managed to miss every single rain event in the last week. I remember as a kid old (original buyers) saying it never rains in south wantagh in the summer. Only north of the southern state. Looks like that’s dead on accurate. Based on current water temps being close to what they were in the 60-80s during the summer. Moving forward Long Island as done well, including south wantagh once the water cracks 75. We had a record flash flood event about 10 years ago in august were we received about 6 inches in 2 hours. (Not the islip event)
