Pattern June’s Drought Dialogues

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Headed for our yearly trip to Kill Devil Hills this coming weekend. This will be my 8th consecutive year and it looks to be by far the hottest one yet. It snowed a foot there this past winter now it will be 95 degrees with 100% humidity when I get there. The Jimmy curse is alive and well

Maybe there will be some snow piles left

Maybe there will be some snow piles left

Maybe if they balled it up and put it in a freezer @ the Wright Brothers museum

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

In all seriousness though, Mickey Mouse heat out there today. I cut the grass this afternoon. We need to get these numbers up

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

This is equivalent to them telling you to drip your faucets with temps in the low 20’s for 3-4 consecutive nights. Miss me

This could turn into a repeat of July 1 2012. Outflows caused explosive development that day.

That's what the 3k NAM is showing.

1. RDU: high was 100, which was halfway between the 12Z GFS’ 102 and the 12Z Euro’s 98. So, it was a tie.

2. GSO: high was 95. 12Z GFS/Euro had 101/97. So, Euro was much better.

3. FAY: high was 98. 12Z GFS/Euro had 100/98. Euro did better and was perfect.

I cut the grass too. Felt like I was mowing at the bottom of the pool.

Extreme heat warning this weather is thrilling

Water temp can turn on a dime out there. It’s 77 right now but a day of steady offshore wind can upwell into the upper 60s temporarily. May not be quite as hot as advertised.

 

[ChrisAMB]

Max today was 94. No real seabreeze coming inland which was interesting. Honestly wasn’t too bad of a day. Cumulus came up after lunch and shaded us every now and then.

 

[ChrisAMB]

Hi res models (multiple ones) keep trying to send an MCS from roughly Charlottesville to Rocky Mount to Charleston on Wednesday. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that before.

 

[SD]

Boy the 3k NAM dried up like my yard the past 3 days.

 

[weather bubba]

This GFS precipitation map is optimistic that North and South Carolina will receive precipitation during the next couple of days. I think it is overdone but it would be nice if some of the storms that might pop up tomorrow expanded more in coverage than expected without the large hail and damaging winds.

 

[ChrisAMB]

WPC really seems to like Wednesday too. Lot of QPF >.25” in NC/SC.

 

[SD]

88.7 at 815am

 

[GaWx]

6Z GFS/Euro for RDU highs today: still a significant difference: 103/99

GSO: 101/100

FAY: 99/99

ATL: 102/98 big diff there, too!

 

[Xlhunter3]

8:30 AM. Already 86. 103 Heat Index. North Durham.

 

[SD]

If we keep warming at this pace records are going to get smashed today.

And to add it won't just be the rdu sensor being records this time

It’s 9am. Look at these numbers out of ENC. mercy

 

[Downeastnc]

90 over 82 at PGV at 930 in the morning with a 113 heat index is kinda ewwwwww.

Welp....

96/79 HI 115

 

[GaWx]

10AM readings vs 24 hours ago: all 3 of these significantly warmer as models have been saying:

RDU +4
GSO +3
FAY +6

 

[ChrisAMB]

11am and 95/78 in the middle of a field in Mt. Pleasant based off what my handheld says.

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Top tier weather right now. Gonna lead to top tier storms tomorrow

 

[1300m]

RDU up to 97F on five minute obs. Still running +4 from same time yesterday.



RDU warmed 7F from this time yesterday (93F => 100F).

 

[Stormsfury]

I just scanned thru some 11am observations from Maine to South Carolina. It's insane. 97 (104 HX) in SW Maine, 100 near NYC ALREADY with a 109 HX. 120 HX in Eastern VA popped up (84 TD).

BUT NC takes the cake at 11am..
124° HX with 95 (84 TD) IN NE NC.

And today is mayoral voting day in NYC. I wonder if turnout will be low due to the heat!

I wouldn't be surprised.
That locale in NC dewpoint dropped down to 82, bringing the HX down to 119 just now.

 

[ChrisAMB]

As strange as it sounds it doesn’t feel as bad as the HI says it is. Granted I have a lot of shade today but it absolutely has felt worse.

Wish I could say the same. Maybe I’m just not tough in my old age

 

[Ross]

its bad but not historic

 

[SD]

clouds are probably going to keep today from maxing out and that OFB in central VA moving south might heat up in a couple of hours assuming we dont mix out

 

[weather bubba]

RDU up to 97F on five minute obs. Still running +4 from same time yesterday.

RDU warmed 7F from this time yesterday (93F => 100F).

If RDU continues to run four degrees above yesterday's temperature it will reach a high of 103 today. The temperature at 11:20 AM is only two degrees shy of the record high of 99 for this date. I think it is safe to say that RDU will set a record high temperature for this date.

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Trees wilting. So is Jimmy

 

[Stormsfury]

Now that sensor has to have something going on.. 86 dewpoint at 95 with a 127 heat index?
