Thanks TK! Happy Friday too all and to all a good day 🙂

Thank you TK.
While we remain in our generally below average temperature pattern, I thought I’d look back at previous May’s and their highest temperature at Logan over the last many years. I went back 15 years …..
May 2015 : 89F May 2007 : 92F
May 2014 : 85F May 2006 : 84F
May 2013 : 94F May 2005 : 78F
May 2012 : 86F May 2004 : 89F
May 2011 : 87F May 2003 : 82F
May 2010 : 94F May 2002 : 84F
May 2009 : 92F May 2001 : 92F
May 2008 : 83F
Arghhhhh !!
I had spaced it out horizontally, but when posted, it came together.
Word Press sucks with their formatting!
Very surprising at that May 2009 temp of 92. That was the most recent year “without a summer”.
The pattern hadn’t turned yet.
Speaking of birding.
Check out this video. It is so cute

I couldn’t get it to work 🙁
Thanks TK. Bit of a chill in the air this am. Is it that old east wind we are feeling so far inland 🙂
Pleasant surprise on the amount of sunshine today. High level cloudiness has really thinned out.

Greatest risk for heavier rainfall is across western MA and CT. Looks like very little across eastern MA.

Looks like much of SNE is already in the “Abnormally Dry” category. I fear we may go into the Moderate category as we head into summer.
Mark nice win by your Islanders Wednesday night. Will see if you go up two games to none before heading home for two in Brooklyn.
The Islanders have always been my second favorite team. I’m really hoping they go all the way.
Really!? I have new found respect for your taste in sports team now 🙂
It has been 23 years since the Islanders have advanced to the second round of the playoffs so I am pretty excited. Would love to see them go all the way and I think they can get past TB, but even if they do, Washington will be extremely difficult to beat in the conference finals.
I respect TBL. Decent team and organization, but how I want the Islanders to beat them. And it would be so sweet to see them face and beat Washington, assuming Washington advances, though they’re off to a good start.
Thanks tk. Another beauty. Reached 61.1 degrees at 3:13 pm. Currently 56.8 degrees
4 picks tonight!!!! Go Patriots!!!
Charlie, they are still skiing this weekend at Sunday River. Interested in joining me?

Lol!! Not a chance!! 🙂
I’ll be drinking a Pina colada on the deck tomorrow afternoon.
I do miss spring skiing. Enjoy Mark!!
Oh I’m not really going. But if Charlie said yes I would have made an exception….
Hahaha….well if I had not been away from skiing for far too long, I’d have gone with you. I suspect after four decades of skiing, it would come right back to me tho.
Man, both the euro and GFS look look like shade pulling disasters by Mother’s Day weekend and a bit beyond. Ensemble mean looks better though. Hopefully those operationals won’t stay that way. If they do, we’re in for some spring suck-a-tude
GFS at least is progressive. Would be a dry Mothers Day with highs in the low 60’s if the 18z run verified.
12z Euro is all blocked up with a nearly stationary low off the coast resulting in periods of rain through the weekend and temps in the 50’s.
I think/hope the GFS has a better handle on the pattern.
As long as Lexington KY is ok 🙂
GFS is dry and in the 60’s in Lexington for the Derby!
GREAT news thanks. Never like horses running in mud
We’ll see. Hope your right. Euro’s been more plugged up. I didn’t look at the 18z, just the 12. No real long term warm trend at this point. TK says around the 20th, not sure if he’s still thinking that. Patterns got to give it up eventually.
A lot of warmth not too far away by Saturday the 14th. We’ll see if it can finally get in here! This from the 18z GFS:

New post!
I’m off to a community yard sale (over 60 sales through the city) and my son is doing a car wash for the school during the same 4 hours. Nice day for both!
