A look at June in Danbury past 6 yrs.


2016 & 2017 looked hot. So far so good staying under 81!





The forecast next 5 days............. I don't mind now. I have a switch inside me where I mind clouds and rain in Spring, then come June & Summer I don't mind.

A/C not on here again at 72°. .

On Off drizzle all day

Precipitation totals for Bradley so far this year? Where can I find that? (Assuming Cambium doesn't have it at his fingertips). Last year was the 4th rainiest on record, I'm wondering if we're on pace to top that!

Includes snow melt.

(1983 was the wettest to date, before the climate was changing. )

That page is so non intuitive it could have only been designed by the government.

Pre 1990.

In 1953 BDL had their warmest year on record.

2 yrs later they had their 2nd wettest year on record.

3 years after that they had their 2nd coldest yr on record. Imagine all that.. All before the climate was changing.. homework and history lessons needed

Pouring here with temps in the upper 60s. Had to close the windows and turn on AC. Got too stuffy and humid


Thought I can go all day without a downpour. Oh well. Was watching this one from NJ

From latest NWS discussion. Good lesson on 2 things here.

1. Why forecasts can be wrong sometimes. All they do is use the tools at hand (models) and sometimes the forecast is just a guess.
2. Why a pattern can be a wet one for us

Front is stalled over our area and the flow is creating on off showers and downpours for days. So expect more of the same tomorrow

The frontal boundary will remain nearly stationary somewhere
south of the area, through Central New Jersey and south of Long
Island. The flow will remain nearly parallel to the frontal
boundary and additional shortwaves will move through the flow.
There remains uncertainty as to where the frontal boundary will
be and where the energy will flow with the NAM mainly to the
south, and the GFS and ECMWF farther to the north. So, did a
best estimate of timing and areal coverage for Monday into
Monday night,

Awwww, Mother Nature must love me Another downpour. I'll be over 1/2" by morning.
And Looks like something else wants to develop over NY & NJ and head here.

Forget about wettest and rainiest and vice versa, that's where it's simplified and exaggerated. All it is really about is averaging all the temperatures globally over a period of time (usually an entire year) an comparing it to a period of time (again usually a year) over the past. When you do that, it is clear there is a mostly uninterrupted warming trend. Same if you do it only for the US, but it's the entire world that matters because otherwise what you say would hold (i.e. the US could be warmer but some other part of the world could be colder and that would be the "luck of the weather dice").

Not sure if low at Central Park was 70 or 69 this morning (hourly low is 70 but there were 2 straight hours of it so it may have dipped to 69 "in between"), so the streak of not having a low of 70 or above may have ended if rain doesn't produce a brief cooling or it doesn't go below 70 late tonight before midnight.
