Brilliant sunshine right now.

looping this .. we're "clearly" getting very lucky here in southeast NH and northeast MA.

And no kidding! the cleanliness of the air must be providing exceptional radiation efficiency because 'brillant' is an understatement

that's because the sun is flat like the Earth -

:lol: 

It's possible I saw something. There was some "shadowing" towards the bottom right of the Sun. Not sure what it would look like viewing through eclipse glasses since I've never done it. 

Clouds totally rolled in now so no shot to look again.

the cloud motion on there is something.   

180 and deg between low and upper levels like that - I mean no angle.   That rareness is what it takes to f over SNE from getting truly warm this late spring.

oh, I know what the problem is - you have to stare at the illuminated disk with unaided, unprotected eye for no less than 5 consecutive minutes.

Qpf = dews…ok got it.

yeah, it means more to RH.

like ... when it is 30f'ing9 degrees and pouring rain, while 'Making America great again' folk inform us that it's an unending, unperturbed perfect spring of warm days, ... the RH is likely up there around 99% 

phew.  so hot that you have to install.  I mean after all, it's  99   :wacko:

I think all the birds are back. I've counted eight different kinds of warblers today.

My window has concussed 2 orioles in 2 days. Maybe I have the rare Welker oriole

Admittedly today surprises me a little with the sky and cloud layout.   I was thinking the opposite, that the mid and high synoptic deck would eat back heading E of NYS, while we'd be inundated by Ole man Labrador strata farts up my way, rending CT and western Mass salvageable.   But alas!  the mid and high deck is spilling over, while apparently Labrador's been taking his dulcolax because there's no strata deck/accumulating fog miasma fartin off GOM so far. 

It's not warm, per se.  But with that intense May sun beamin' through this coolish air it isn't so bad really.

60/37  ...nice early autumn appeal :(.  

It's interesting that the world is apparently still putting up gaudy CC temperatures making press about every month being warmer than the last and unprecedented this and that ... while we 'feel' like this is iglooian purgatory.  I was just looking at the monthly - so far - DEPs on Box' climo site and apparently we are  above normal - more so CT way.  I suppose having a couple of 80 days'll do that, huh. 

I guess what it boils down to is that we will always be cool, relative to the world's CC issue ...while still being above normal, at times ...being stung by rancid Atlantic cold.  Welcome to the heat short bus

I don't think Logan's been a mystery at all.

In fact, it only underscores that uselessness of placing any kind of a 'societal indicator' out on an island in the midst of a thermal black hole -

that's the enigma.
