You know when the next chance a nice dry day will be? Thursday onward to the end of the forecast period looks mostly cloudy with a chance of showers at best, heavy rain at worst.

Tomorrow, Thursday, and I think Sunday is going to be nice and dry after the storm clears out Saturday evening. After that it gets sketchy. GFS says Tuesday/Wednesday stays dry. Euro says showers every day Monday to Wed. As far as clouds thats hard to tell. I think Sunday morning will be dry and cloudless.

That map makes it clear how icebergs can survive on the north coast of Newfoundland in early summer.

And yes, agree all the polls are just too much these days. Rather repetitive. Why do people keep bumping them up?

what does 500 HGT measure [units]? What units is the 1000, 500 thickness. Shouldn't it change with a storm?
