I don't mind the hot temps, actually root for them. I just like long days and high sun angles  :happy: .A 25 degree sun angle at solar noon in the winter is really depressing. Makes you wish you lived more south. If fall/winter had just as long days as summer and not have summer temps, that would be awesome. Can't think of a place that has that though. Maybe up on a mountain near the equator.

The summer solstice will occur at 1:04am tonight on June 21. Starting then, the sun will be on its way back south. Days will get shorter, sun angles will get lower. Not looking forward to the winter solstice.

Looks like Nome, AK tied its all-time highest temp ever today. Crazy heat up there. Tying an all-time heat record in June. Amazing turn around from a few months ago when Alaska was in a deep freeze.

I'm going to opt out of this one. I already missed two days and it's just about over. I have a lot going on in life, with exams and being cyber-bullied. I'll play good next round now that I'm done with all exams. Good luck to both Tavores and Metarvo.  :thumbsup:

I've really been enjoying this Spring, although a bit humid, it's been  overall cool in the 80s. We might not even hit 80 today due to the morning rain and low cloud deck.  :o Speaking of rain, man has it been really wet this year. Were within 0.60 of an inch from reaching the yearly total of rainfall we saw for 2012 which was just over 37 inches and were only halfway through the year! That's crazy! If we managed to keep at this pace, we can easily see over 70 inches of rainfall this year, which would be a foot and a half above normal. :yes:

It's the same here. This was an awkward spring here. Started off cold in March. April was alright, a bit cool but very dry, day after day of sun. The dry spell lasted into early May and we've been in a wet pattern ever since, and KNYC only less than an inch away from breaking its all time wettest June.

Other than that, there are huge differences between the GFS and Euro. GFS wants to torch the entire medium range here. Euro wants to keep a trough over the area through the rest of the month. 0z GFS was hot with day after day 90+ temps, 06z backed off a bit and looks like it's trending towards a Euro like solution, with a ridge, then trough, then back to a ridge.
