GFS still showing a cool down for the 6-10 day period



CFSv2 not showing it



ECMWF centered on July 15th at 850 hPa heatwave?

Just thinking about this again, and we're actually not in a borderline Dfb/Dfc zone.


We're fully Dfb. 100%.


Dfc which is subarctic begins hundreds of km north of here.


Interesting tidbit: the warmest official weather station in all of Canada (east west north south) yesterday was Moosonee, Ontario. It got to 33.9C or 93F.


It's a tiny former fur trading post on James Bay in the Hudson Bay lowlands.


Located here:

Moosonee is actually borderline Dfb/Dfc.


Vegetation there is a mix of boreal forest and taiga, with sparse, short trees, lichens and such.


At this time of year it's not impossible that there might even be some ice left in the bay.


Polar bears are sighted there on occasion.


Just goes to show how continental climates can sometimes be extreme at both ends of the spectrum.


Moosonee's all time record high is 37.9C or 100F.

Last hot day tomorrow. 80s beaches low 90s away from the lake. Weekend looks coolest on the lakeshore. Low to mid 80s inland

When George are u finally going to acknowledge man made global warming? This is real and has to be dealt with.

If by "heatwave" they mean boring temps that barely crack 90F, they can bugger off

When didn't I acknowledge it? I don't question the greenhouse effect. I question the model projections 50 years into the future for various regions including my own. When are you going to acknowledge that regional climate projections for 50 years into the future are fundamentally flawed? Unless you actually believe place like Chicago will resemble Phoenix or Las Vegas during the summer in 2070 with 60 days of 100F+ heat: Do you actually believe this??? .

As for it being " dealt with" what makes you think we can do anything to stop what is going on? Human civilization is a heat engine. We need energy to survive.

1pm partly sunny 87F IKK, 89F at both ORD and MDW

I believe the 90F reading in the top right corner is Miramichi, New Brunswick. Currently the hotspot in all of Canada at 35C.

Euro weeklies say we will be above average over the next two weeks. God I really hope so after such a crappy May/June (other than the last few days of June)

ORD just hit 90 degrees. We're at 88F at IKK.

Happy belated 4th! "Save & Tax Us, We're Gonna Die!"
