The stage is set. 80F here with tall clouds building.

Still expecting scattered to numerous thunderstorms to develop in the late afternoon as 700 mb inversion erodes and low level convergence increases ahead of the front and MCV currently over central MO. The combination of low to mid 60s dew points pooling ahead of the frontal boundary over central IL/IN/OH, and good surface heating should contribute to ML CAPE values over 2000 J/KG along and west of I-65. Main storm mode should be pulse in nature given the strong instability, but relatively marginal deep layer shear. However, a few storms may exhibit a line segment mode with damaging wind threat
Pretty photos; I should visit that thread more often. Maybe post; I'm not that far from the Vermont border
You should. There's 2 guys that post awesome photos. tkln, Joe Moving, & Cloven. Check out their VT Photo thread.
You'll sometimes see my same posts as here in their weather thread but mostly when it snows.

Here I am happy to think the days will start to get shorter in 2 months!

How about now???
New 2pm Update. Still Sunny in Caribou.
4.5" of snow in Durham Maine.
39° Boston. 57° in NYC. 84° in Philly
Severe Storm Watch boxed out
I'm really surprised there's no thunderstorms along the frontal boundary, perhaps the air mass isn't unstable enough? I see a 73 F in Williamsport, PA and a 42 F only 100-150 miles north in Western NY.

Yeah, the sun here is ridiculous though thankfully it's covered by clouds now.
And yeah, the climate there is sweet I do wish winters were a bit colder or that the UHI in Minneapolis wasn't so intense (perhaps I should look on the outskirts so I get less UHI?) but I won't complain about a -5 C average high and -14 C average low after years of non-winter.
Plus, summer is pretty active with a good amount of storms.

Trenton, NJ literally 2hrs from me. 82° there 53° here.
Watches are out. Im seeing cells pop up now.. Heads up PA and NJ
Ah, I stand corrected. I can't believe I missed those storms in PA on the radar.
