17 Hours of sun past 2 days. I'll take it! Clouds moved in after 1:45pm

Yup. Feels like a NorEaster but winds are from the north. Was a beautiful morning today!

Clickbait title and clickbait article - the media always manages to completely change the narrative. What a shame

Here's the real forecast, saying 4 major hurricanes in the Atlantic basin. 45% chance that at least one of those hits the US East Coast, 69% chance for the entire US coastline. And that's only on page 2 of the document. Either a completely incompetent reporter or media sensationalism, once again

I used to go to FL in July for a few weeks every summer growing up. I remember coming back here and feeling more miserable during an August heatwave. My grandparents had central air, a pool, and lived right on the beach. We had none of the above. Heat is easy to accommodate for. So is cold for that matter, though I'd say to a lesser degree because it really keeps you indoors. But clouds are impossible to fix in any way. I saw somewhere that CT is the 10th cloudiest state in the US. I'd argue that has a lot to do with the low morale this state suffers from but it's the one thing we never talk about.

New England, the Midwest, and the Pacific Northwest are relatively cloudy. I was suprised FL is that sunny but it makes sense because (even here) when it's warmer precip falls at a faster rate for a shorter time (thunderstorms).

I lived in NH some and, as you'd guess from the map, it's even "worse" up there. Luckily I'm not that affected by it. I, in fact, like the soft light and find the sun annoying sometimes

See it? The storm off the coast is moving WEST. (It happens, relax everyone. lol)

Whipping rain bands off the Atlantic into New England. Looks like a heavy batch entering Tolland, Hartford and Windham Counties next hour or so

Not below freezing at 5000' except parts of NY state so its not even snowing at that level. Above 7000' yes

Temps in the 40s across CT.

Yes, northern New England is much cloudier than southern New England.

Also, upstate NY (well past NYC) and western PA are also amongst the cloudiest parts of the US.

Yeah that's totally how Florida rain is. They get a huge amount measured by inches but it's a lot of torrential downpours during late afternoon thunderstorms. I think they get far fewer gray, washout days than we do.

That map is interesting. Especially how it shows that Eastern Mass and Jersey are pretty sunny for the northeast.
