2009 was a horrible horrible summer, really hope that doesn't happen again. 2006 was incredibly warm tho~they couldn't have chosen two years that were more different from each other
Looking at the entire record, when you look at extremely cloudy summers (those with less than 500 hours), there's definitely an increasing trend recently.
57-59: 1
60-69: 1
70-79: 3
80-89: 1
90-99: 0
00-09: 2
10-17: 4 (could possibly be 6 by the end of the decade)

Similar ENSO states.
The major telliconnections were different though.
2006 had a +AO. 2009 had a -AO.
2006 +NAO, 2009 -NAO.
2006 -PNA, 2009 +PNA
Basically 2006 had all the ingredients for a warm summer, the complete opposite happened in 2009.
LJK1988 your climate is almost certainly gonna resemble Jamaica as a result of global warming, no need to worry about desertification in your neck of the woods.

2006 the whole summer we were stuck in a reverse west wind flow. Everyone 8 to 20 miles east of me had plenty of rain while anyone right on the coast had no rain that summer. I had like 5" for the whole summer..
Our weather is much hotter than Jamaica ever dreamed of being. Our dewpoints are much worse.
Just got around to this... I had to laugh at this statement..
"From heat to humidity and severe weather, the Northeast and mid-Atlantic are set to experience a bit of everything this summer." Don't we always have that anyway? LOL

Summer to bring heat, humidity and severe weather to Northeast, mid-Atlantic
From heat to humidity and severe weather, the Northeast and mid-Atlantic are set to experience a bit of everything this summer.
A few hot periods will take hold throughout the summer, though it won’t be persistent.
“I think there’s going to be surge later in June when we really start to feel some heat here in the Northeast. But will it stick around the whole summer? I don’t think that’s going to happen,” AccuWeather Expert Long-Range Forecaster Paul Pastelok said.
I-95 cities, including New York City, Boston and Philadelphia, are predicted to average close to normal with respect to the number of 90-degree days.
“Humidity-wise they’ll have to watch out for August. That may be up a little bit,” he said.
Severe weather could strike the northern mid-Atlantic states and eastern Ohio in June.
Just great. Bastardi said in his Weekend Summary, that 2014 is a possible analog for this upcoming summer.
