July has arrived ... the Meteorologically defined mid summer month


Typhoon Tip

Recommended Posts

The MET is some 4-7 F less than the MAV for today thru Friday.   Doesn't have heat advisory caliber warmth at BDL/FIT/ASH/BED ... Humid as back of sack, but it's upper 80s. 

MAV is 90-94 throughout.  Even 97 at LGA, back to back days.   That's the first 'big heat' numbers I've seen on machine this summer, anywhere in the NE U.S.  The pattern cannot seem to shake this +PNAP aspect to the flow orientation.  The models seem to struggle for many cycles to finally raise height over SE Canada, but then in a single run ... collapse all at once back to ridge west - trough east ( particularly along and N of 40 deg lat).  It takes 0 effort for them to go this other direction.

Shunt summer.  But honestly ...I've been seeing this a lot in recent years.  We get hot, but we do it while there is cyclonically curved flow orientation aloft..  It's really like the trough ingests a warm tongue of air from an expulsion out off the W/SW ... so just a timing thing. This heat these next couple of days is streamed out along a zonal flow... but there's still a vague semblance of an inflection axis in the flow centered on western PA ... So, you know it's fragile as a construct.  And no sooner, the models end it with a shot before the shot across the bow air mass like they couldn't wait to do it..  Not breaking summer's back ... but bending over backward.  As early as the first week of August ...before the perennial end of the solar maximum ( ~10th) ? 

I don't think they will succeed as much.  They are correct in the trough return, as they have been on multiple other occasions this summer and other years going back.  But a separate moving error through all is that they tend to over amplify those when in mid range.  Matter of how much or little.

We got more rain yesterday than the Jay-Dixfield drowner the day before - 0.04" vs. 0.03".  Since the all-day rain on July 2, every precip forecast here has underperformed.  Dare I say that the garden needs water?  :wacko2:

Mine doesn't.....lol, And the pump passed the test from last night, Garden is dry this morning.
