Had a beautiful hike and swim (in that order) at Council Lake west of Mount Adams today. It was in the low 80s up there. A lot cooler than the lowlands but still pretty warm for the 4,500-5,000 ft lev

*Major* record low set. In July! 32 this morning breaking the record of 35 set on 07/02/1966.   It's rare to have mid-summer records broken.

Looks, feels, and smells like a mid September day...So things are improving!

I could possibly have to water the lawn for the first time since August 2018 by next week. Very concerning. Hard to believe I have water every 2 years.

Perhaps. But he did make that statement about the hottest weather of the summer happening by 7/4. We'll see... could be right!

Could still happen. But that was 2 months ago when he said that.

Up to 66 here!!!!!

70 and sunny here and completely calm. Beautiful on the deck for dinner. That is only possible when its 20 degrees above normal in July. ;)

Pretty incredbile weather.  Low 70s and sunshine in July.  Going to be clear tonight after a failry cool max so we could see 40s for lows.  Incredibly comfortable weather.

Agreed. Great day. High of 75 here, already down to 71 now with north winds and dropping dewpoints. Could definitely make a run at low 50s here tomorrow morning.

Backpedaling a little bit on this claim?

Not sure yet, because I was speaking in reference to climatology, not absolute temperatures.

 

IMO, the upcoming period of ridging is likely to be intraseasonal/transient, just like ones in June, even if models are struggling at the moment. That’s pretty typical for model guidance during an intraseasonal wave cycle opposed to the low frequency state.

 

That being said, June was also troughier than I was expecting (I didn’t foresee early establishment of IPWP/dateline subsidence), so it’s less clear cut now whether summer “peaked” (relative to climo) in May/June, similar to 2016, or if it has yet to do so.

 

Will probably be a close call either way.

Running an average temp of 60.9 currently only 0.9 degrees warmer than the avg. for all of June. Has been really nice to be cooler than normal in the summer with some sunshine mixed in. Has definitely been a bit cloudier than normal for July but there’s still been some nice days too. Even the most cloudy days have had some sunshine mixed in at one point or another. Would be nice if we could continue this roll of weather all the way into the fall. Maybe a couple quick short lived heat waves and some thunderstorms to make it interesting too.

At least we’re consistent. You get slightly more rain and lower highs then I do :)

My location definitely seems to get slightly more rain and cooler day time max temperatures. Your house seems to cool off better at night though.

That was poorly contextualized on my part, but note I didn’t explicitly predict the hottest temperatures would occur in June (only that it was a possibility). I wouldn’t ever *predict* that to occur anywhere in the NH.

And contrary to expectations on this forum, I’m not in the warm August camp at all. So long as subsidence holds firm over the IPWP-dateline domain, I’d lean towards a cool August (and warm September assuming a continuation of the present periodicity of the AAM structure(s)).

 

The problem is, since 1998, WPAC/IPWP forcing has been much more common during the second half of summer, especially during August, and sustaining large scale subsidence in that critical 140E-150W domain has been close to impossible.

 

This year, unlike the majority, the low frequency system state has featured IPWP/WPAC subsidence, and it’s held very firm thus far. So if there’s to be a cool August absent a healthy/strong niña, this would probably be the year to do it.

All of my preferred indicators and conference calls are pointing to a frigid August.

 

 

Great call.   I also predict a record-setting cold August.   Its 100% guaranteed and I am never wrong!

      April 2024 Weather in the PNW

      I think their 2" on August 24th 1992 is absoluetly f****** absurd. At least in June there is just enough residual wintertime cold left over at the poles to drop snow levels down to 5k feet should it be displaced south, and enough of a poleward thermal gradient still in tact to spawn strong-ish cutoff lows around the meridian line. Mid-late August is a joke of a time to get a snowstorm, even at their somewhat high elevation. They pretty much combined the strongest weather system possible at that time of year with the coldest air possible... Neither factors being very impressive nonetheless. But enough is enough. The only month I doubt they could pull off a snowstorm at all would be during July, and even then I bet the first week holds some out-there potential in the right setup. July 15-August 15 is off the table though. I think....

      Gorgeous evening. My daughter got the Irish setter up on her trampoline and is hosing her down. Pandemonium.

      April 24-29 Multi Day Central and Southern Plains Severe Weather Outbreak

      Pi-Day event had its interesting parts. Before the main bout of supercells in IN/OH, there was one lonely supercell that travelled from near Cincinatti all the way to my vicinity a few hours prior, with nothing else picking up on JKL radar around that time. Then all the later night storms developed into an MCS hitting me around 2am. Overall the Feb 28 and April 2 events gave me much more of a uh-oh feeling in the gut. Pi-Day had a ton of large hailers, and a few storms that happened to hold together a stronger tornado. Not to say 3/14 wasn't a good one though, Ohio was a surprise during that one as they weren't exactly bullzeyed at first.

      Polite Politics

      Oh, I think one side is just a bit more guilty of that than the other. Trump has taken the racist nationalist playbook and made it his platform. He is the GOP nominee and has a real chance at being the next president. No sane person can make that claim about the left and Biden (even if he is Netanyahu's little biatch). And I loathe what a lot of the left has become.
