Nothing to see here 

I mean, regardless of the causation, all evidence points to one thing… Warmth. In all regions. The momentum is too much to fight, so you just go with it.

Vegas is more built up now too, but that is wild.

They may never get a record low again.

Damn. They slipped a 120F in there.

it's not data-fill

[dendrite]

Min 64°

Kinda sad that that feels refreshing. Hard to believe CON used to average a min of 57° in July.

According to Winter wolf's snowmobile diaries it's happened before and will happen again. Not going to make any conclusions from some stupid weather charts.

In the eye. Waiting for first light.

Looks like Dendy washes away with his chickens.

What a dewlicious stretch coming up.

As someone who works outside all day, everyday, all year round... Can confirm that I am not looking forward to this week. But I will say I would rather work in this weather than in the freezing cold in January. Thankfully, we don't get many days like that anymore

This is what we should get used to.

What dew you dew for work?

Anyone seen any doggie dew dew?

Haven't been outside in days but I hear it's nasty out there. D:

I'm pretty sure ( personally ... ) at this point that throngs of humanity will literally be dying of heat -related "causality" one day, yet still, those same throngs of humanity will maintain a null mentality as to the why it is happening.

Denial has become it's own religion, with the same predisposition to do so in those who possess the God gene - it's a real thing.  Those that have the trait are something like 5 times more likely to devout ( some sarcasm here but who knows - ).

But something like that is happening. Denialism as a phenomenon perhaps being motivated from that, within the general population density - as though it's manged to accessed that DNA trigger.

It really does seem as though there is a 'faith' in the system correcting itself - like a predisposed belief or conception that that will happen.

By extension...  scheduling the Darwin Award.

This is how it things are trending climate wise imby. It’s an ugly combination for sure;
 

-New Jersey climo November - mid March

-Southern New England Climo late March to May

-Far interior sections of southeast climo: June to October

I remember speculating the bold was beginning to happen some 10 or 15 years ago. 

I used to rail on about it but stopped years ago when I realized that crickets don't engage in objective discussion -

DAW is NJ climo in winter?? 
 

Sacramental wine?

Give me the cold any day of the week. No deer flies. Didn't want to start my day chumming for them. 

 

[Modfan2]

Already 90F here in the Quinebaug Valley

i think he means the NJ of the previous climate era.  that's how i read that.  the NJ of say 1990s has since moved N.  likewise, NJ is now ...  i dunno, Del Marvian from the same previous era and on and so on.

climate is differentiating regardless, and that +delta value requires these "climate regions" migrating N.  I guess folks have opinions on how far that is along the way therein.  sure.  

although i feel there is some usefulness in that distinction the way he describes ( for one ... it's unavoidable - just a matter of time ). however, even if we are there qualitative and quantitatively in that objective reality or not, both regions are still within reach of a Feb 2015. 

like everything, it's a matter of diminishing returns.   at some point we just sort of find ourselves in a point of NO returns.  not there yet -

( although as an afterthought while on the subject last year's huge pan-planetary scaled temperature burst, air, sea and land unilaterally, happening so fast and apparently ... not really 'receding'  - that should give some pause related to 'leaping' )

So the Euro won’t end summer in about 10 days? I figured even if we got a brief mild down we would be gearing up for the back half to be as extreme as the first half. It is almost expected at this point that the AC will be on while I’m teaching in October. 

[dendrite]

I know what he meant and we’re not there yet. We’ve gained maybe a half growing zone in spots. LWM/BED from the 70s may be a better comparison.

LOL... yeah that sarcasm was well earned by that particular model.

the Euro used to have a definitive tendency to over dig heights into see Canada - like all these models' particular biases more expressive in it's mid and extended range. 

So that was 12z yesterday... 00z backed off, but still appears more trough comparing other guidance sourcing.

you think it's that shallow -  interesting.

I think part of the problem is that we are on a sloped curve.  More importantly, the slope is not Y/X ... it is Y^2/X

That affects people, and that in turn effects their 'intuitive impression' of how nature is changing outside the window. 

Personally I think it's further along than one half of a single growing zone - intuitively.  Because of the acceleration in which this shit is all happening, the scalar values may say 1/3 ... 1/2 ... 4/7ths... etc, but 1 year later those are too shallow.

I dew believe he is an electrician.

Yeah....install generators. Multi-ply day today

I can see why you'd like warmth better than cold. I'm betting there's a lot of things you can't do with gloves on.

I wear gloves (thin ones) in the summer too. This biggest issue is dealing with trenches and PVC pipe and wire and flex conduit. It all sucks to work with in the cold.
