Would be around $5-6k I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 The other problem with the euro overmixing is it gets the mixing heights up around H75-H8 so you’re mixing dry adiabatically down to 850. So you’re inflating the temp at that level a couple degC as well. It all ties in together. That’s why when I see it spitting out 105/55 at 2m with 24C 850s and mixing to H75 I just instatoss it and play it closer to normal big heat climo. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I was really hoping for mid 70's dewpoints. There is something magical about wearing jeans and just feeling the sweat develop on your legs and if you listen super closely, you can hear a faint sizzle as the material of the jeans slowly absorbs the sweat. The sensation you get when you slowly tug the jeans down to try and take them off...it's indescribable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you are right, he would need to get the GPM and recovery rate tested first, which any reputable irrigation company would do anyway. i am on a well and have irrigation. i have a 20 minute recovery/rest between zones to give the pump time to chill out and for the well to recover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 15 hours ago, powderfreak said: Yeah just less diurnal ranges, our records are more like 130 degree ranges. Can be 98F, or -33F. We've lived in 4 towns since moving to Maine in early 1973. Each place had its own character for extremes. Bangor (3 yr) Range: 118° Max: 102 on 8/2/75; Min: -16 on 1/16/74. We were in town; the AP hit -24 in Dec. 1975 while we only got down to -13 that month. Fort Kent (9.7 yr) Range: 142° Max: 95 on 5/27/78; Min: -47 on 1/17/79. Both were set when we lived in town. After we moved to the Violette Settlement, 450' higher than town, in 9/81 Max: 94 on 7/4/83; Min: -34 on 1/18/82 and 1/12/84. Range: 128° Gardiner (13 yr) Range: 118° Max: 93 on 7/20/91; Min: -25 on 2/7/93 and 1/20/94 We lived on a forested lot 3 miles from town center New Sharon (since 5/15/98) Range: 129° Max: 93 on 7/3 and 9/9/02 Min: -36 on 1/16/09. We're in a frost pocket, as cold air drains from a field and stops at our lot as it's surrounded by thick forest on 3 sides.. We've had only 2 heat waves in our 53 years in state. Ironically, both were at Fort Kent and both in May: 22-24/77 and 27-29/78. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damage In Tolland Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Dews are already running in low- mid 70’s today where people live and not tarmacs.. so the lower modeled dews are already failing. Even the Mac at BDL dew is 70 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 28 minutes ago, weathafella said: BOS is rocketing now with a bit of a downsloper. Now that we've collectively groused the apparent "failure" of the models to correctly assess the temperatures that will be realized by this first bigger anomaly of the season, ... the 12z NAM came in with a real roaster at Logan for tomorrow and Thursday. FOUS grid for BOS 30000607452 -1494 242311 77 31 22 15 54000545750 -1193 222311 77 32 23 16 Those spreads will typically yield 35 .. 36 in the 2-meter. There is no codified def for "big heat" but I've always suggested 95 - with some valid argument that the HI should be a part of that discussion. With DPs in the 65 to 71 range, there's not much contention either way if those are realized. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxWatcher007 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 95° was always my bar for big heat. That, or 100° HI. Becoming a scorchah. 84.1/72 at my EH station while HFD is at 84/72 HI 90. HFD was tracking ahead of me for about an hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 The NAM bursting the T1 by 3 C, and the T2 by 1 to 2 C in this run this morning, and looking at area obs already 90 as of 11:xx am should give pause when using the MET for tomorrow. Now that we are in the same synoptic realm that will realize both today and tomorrow ... we are valid to test the behavior ( now-cast ) this thing.

w1pf Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 unfortunately my weather station here in Holyoke is a Acurite, and I think the temp sensor has a radiation problem.. it definitely reads high when it is sunny.. A Davis, it ain't. There are some other issues with it as well, but I don't know if those are due to the station or the weewx driver. I gotta get something better for up here. I think we're at 86/74 here right now, which is pretty dewy for these parts.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
