I fear CC means that's our summers forever. Seems like 7 out of the last 7 summers have been that way. I may have a traumatized memory there to some degree, but the shit summers have been very real. May have to relo at some point. Regardless of cause ... CC or God is an asshole aside, having to rationalize and gaslight self into believing winters aren't as bad as x-yz, when in objective truth they are actually butt rape, followed by putrid summers, with destructive interference stopping anything otherwise regardless of season... that is a hell. Expand Not disagreeing with what you say, but unless I'm remembering incorrectly ( and that could be a distinct possibility) last summer did not seem terrible at least as far as temps compared to the few before. For me I still think summer 2018 was THE worst as far as combination of extended heat along with high dews. It could be simply because it was a memorable summer for me preparing for my wedding in September, however the weather just seemed terrible and broke just in time for our outdoor wedding. Only time in my life I've ever felt the effects of heat stroke or whatever you call it. Feeling dizzy and shaking uncontrollably... It Came Upon me out of nowhere.

My favorite summer weather is 85/55 ...which doesn't allow for a lot of wiggle room, nor likeliness, no. But the sideways sun shine of late afternoon through 7pm after an afternoon of 87/55 ... when there is a light breeze is pure splendor Expand I remember days back in the 80s when we would have occasional days in the mid 70s to low 80s and low dews, often accompanied by a decent NW breeze.

NOT a fun experience Expand So you are into temperature concerns... word. I'm sick of this, "convective debris by 1 pm in 78 DPs, with thunder boomin away always somewhere else ..." and it's penetrative warm wetness that seems to even get into your bed it is so inundating - if you don't have sufficient hvac methods . It's like we get this weakness in the 500 mb height field - I think it's related to these unbearable record hot heat domes going on over western N/A, more and more so in summers. It is causing the flow to physically/necessarily sink in latitude over the eastern continent - in the means. Sure, it won't be all the time, but is however the base-line super synoptic rest state. The flow is SE over VA, S over PA, and that pools in New England. That means like Scott was saying ...we seem to more and more end up with high DPs, which of course is true... There's no seems about - regardless of cause, we are getting persistent DP anomalies. This then inimically leads to +cloud anomalies and basically ... NOT getting the 84/55, WNW breezy, nostalgic summer types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
