8:15AM
DAYS 1-5 (JULY 8-12)
Just a quick update today. High pressure maintains control, looking like through Tuesday at this time, and still watching the offshore tropical system during midweek. Odds favor it staying offshore at this point, but need to keep an eye on it, especially Cape Cod. If nothing else, it will be increase the seas in the region.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs 77-85. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 57-64. Wind light SW.
MONDAY: Sunny. Highs 78-85 South Coast, 85-92 elsewhere. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 60-68. Wind light W.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 78-85 South Coast, 85-92 elsewhere. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Possible coastal showers. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
DAYS 6-10 (JULY 13-17)
Fair early and late period with a shower and thunderstorm threat mid period. Temperatures near to above normal.
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 18-22)
A west to east flow will carry a couple disturbances producing shower and thunderstorm threats in passing, but the overall pattern is on the drier side with near to above normal temperatures.
I am first! Thanks TK.
TK – Are those “coastal showers” for Wed-Thurs due to the offshore system?
Never mind. See previous blog. π
Thank you, TK
Neighbor down here came by to chat last night. She said Wednesday into Thursday to watch for rip tides for the younguns.

Thanks TK.
Good morning and thank you TK.
Rainshine,
1st best of luck with the surgery.
2nd re: DQ
Happy you enjoyed your sundae, but the funny thing is, I recommended a BLIZZARD
with caramel and marshmallow. No matter as long as you enjoyed.
3rd Mrs. OS survived and actually made it out to dinner and cards with friends last
evening. That was nice. Thank you for asking.
Wonderful news.
Rainshine, second JpDave’s best of luck for your upcoming surgery.
Thank you!
Next time I will try the Blizzard at DQ.
So glad theat Mrs. OS is better and enjoyed going out last evening!
And thank you for your wishes re: my surgery. Hoping nothing changes in the weather dept. and we get a hurricane! π
should be that not theat.
Good luck Rainshine!
Thank you!
I don’t often agree with Blackstone, but on one Mr. Price, I agree 100%.
He is a useless steaming pile of Dog excrement.
Was listening on radio, even Joe and Tim sounded dumbfounded by the 3 hit batters.
I’ve noticed he struggles with shut down innings following the Sox scoring for him. Multiple times.
I know what his problem is and he’ll need a shrink and medication.
He’s suffering from PERFORMANCE ANXIETY.
If I heard correctly, he is the first pitcher in Red Sox history to hit three batters in one inning.
it may have been in major league history.
I was afraid of that, which is even more embarrassing.
Thanks TK.
7 th by my count. π
Always 7th by mine π

hmmmmmmm. Even if it stays out to sea, we will probably have to find high ground for the cars. But could make things quite interesting
I’m not convinced that Chris goes completely OTS.
Well now. Hmmmm
So hurricanes here in July are pretty much nonexistent
Some remnants and I remember TS Danny in 1996. We were here but thereβs only one hurricane I can find in 1916
July 21 1916 cat 1
July 11, 1959 remnants of cindy
July 13 1996 TS Bertha
July 26 1997 Danny TS
AccuWeather Trivia Quiz.
Which combination of weather conditions is most favorable for hitting baseballs farther?
A. warm & humid
B. warm & dry
C. cool & damp
D. cool & dry
Answer later today (I got this one wrong).
Tough call but I will go with B.
A
Warmer air is lighter than cooler air. Similarly, humid air is less dense than drier air.
π
A
Thank you, Longshot for the question about longer shots π
A
From experience. The longest balls I ever hit came
during hot and humid weather. π
I struck out a lot. I wouldn’t know what to do if I did hit a home run.
That being said, I did go 2-for-2 with 2 RBI and a run scored and I was the winning, starting pitcher in the end-of-the-year staff-student softball game, teaching the young, whipper-snappers a thing or two. (I am still sore two weeks later.)
I still haven’t answered the trivia question, have I?
I will be going, going, gone with B.
Great question as always, Longshot!
eAsy one π
Knew it from time I was knee high to a grasshopper although I am not sure it is easy π
B
If Chris meanders a little longer than the models have been showing, the center will pass closer to Cape Cod Thursday rather than well out to sea Tuesday or Wednesday. This is how I feel this plays out. I’m leaning offshore but I still am not completely ruling out a center making it all the way to Nantucket or even the outer Cape.
Makes it tough because the closer the storm passes, the stronger itβs likely to be due to the meandering time over warm waters. I think offshore as well but definitely worth keeping an eye on. It looks much better organized this afternoon.
Oh good and I thought weβd formed a plan b to stay here but move the cars to high ground. Guess we may need a plan b,c,d,and possibly e,f
Hurricanes in July…..in New England. Why did I know when Longshot (I think it was Longshot) posted there was tropical development days ago that we might well see something. That brother of mine was always joking around π
There have been quite a few hurricanes that have passed offshore during July over the many years we’ve observed but a landfall would be a very low frequency event. Not going for it, but I’m just not convinced it’s a zero chance either. π
I did see there were several passes and some remnants but only one that seems to have made landfall. July 21 1916.
I remember Danny as we were in Humarock for that. It was awesome. But the House then was on the opposite side of the peninsula and quite high up
Interesting TK ……
New moon Thursday, that is at perigee Friday, I think. Both high tides will be high, the overnight tide will be near 12 ft at Boston.
Swells will bring some splash over for sure.
Oh my. It keeps adding up, doesnβt it.
Take a look at this morning’s 2:47AM ob from Long Lake ND. Just a bit of a severe t-storm, hmm? π
