That was some heavy rain. 0.89” in under a half hour. Rain rate peaked at 3”/hr.
-
That ass sweat loosens it up… but 83/48 and I’m loosest. Snow crying for its mama. The bugs are just starting to get going as green up is through 2,000ft now. Another 3-5 days and it’ll probably be time to get carried away by black flies. Today I did think of Scooter and the clouds jokes in NNE… hit about 12pm and clouded up with the humidity and terrain. Then brief downpours.

Today was hot. 83/62. That’s MVL mid-summer climo right there. Average high peaks around 83F in July. Now getting brief downpours. Like the 5 minute variety. Feels tropical.

This is the first evening that's really felt like warm season. 8:30pm and 68F... all windows and three sliding doors wide open. Still some light outside. What a couple of days and this evening has the feels, listening to the peepers and insects, late light, smell of fresh cut grass. Warm season. Still near 80F up in N.ME.

Could feel the humidity rise out there as the dews went from 20s to 30s with some cloud cover. I do agree though, 50s to near 60F is good summer dews at the ASOS sites. You can swim with that. Today if it started raining, temps would’ve gone from like 75F to 55F with wet bulbing lol.

74/27 About perfection.

36F at MVL. 35F at the station on the edge of the Stowe Country Club. That's the closest to me. River bottom and open field topography. As soon as you go a 100-200ft up it warms real fast. Very fake but refreshing. No match for SLK’s 30/27 right now.

Where’s Ginxy?

Forecasting with the desired vibes instead of models sometimes does work out. More often in the summer than winter, haha.

Sun broke out up here too… I will say these evenings feel 10x better after two shitty days. Definitely enjoy the last couple hours of daylight outside today. I was wrong too. The models 48 hours ago were lingering the system much later. Definitely leaned nicer on the fringes as we got closer.
-
60F inside here too.

“Can we take these out of the windows so we can just close them? It’s getting cold in here.”

If you post anything about poor weather (aka disaster) from March to October you are guaranteed a confused emoji from one poster on here, lol. Unless it’s an actual natural disaster, then you’ll get a 100%.

I don’t crave high heat and dews, but I want to be able to enjoy the long daylight as much as possible. Today and tomorrow aren’t it.
