All Activity

Yeah. Was working on a house near BDR last week and everything is torched to a crisp there.

A dry spot wandered by here and dropped my DP to 71. AAFB is with us at 72, but KNAK is 77. Low temp was 73.

Yes, no argument there. Last season was a glaring deviation from the norm in that respect.

Did you play that Banff Springs golf course? Played that many times over the years on various golf games.

Alright, I don't have access here at work to the site I would normally prefer for this type of question, but I used some other sources and can at least say the following with regard to MDT.... July should end up ~80.0, which, when combined with June's 73.8, should get us close to 77. 2024 immediately stands out as the GOAT with a mean June/July temp above 78 degrees. Then there are a number of other years slightly above that 77 mark. So, no I wouldn't say it's the hottest start ever, but yes I would say it's one of the warmest starts, top 5-10ish. Depending how August goes, it has an outside chance of making a run at the Met Summer record.

Picked up 0.15" anvil rain/ISS early this morning. Up to 5.42" for July now. As of yesterday MLI/DVN was at 8.74"/8.21" for July.

eh, so much for the Cotuit/Wareham CCBL game I was going to on Friday

Looks run of the mill now on most models....although we can use any rain we can get here-very dry

Yes, surprisingly for once it was too warm. Other that that lone exception, the long range modeling has been too cold in the east for almost 10 years now

Someone is getting hydro Phil.

It's a weird one.

I wouldn't want to be a forecaster trying to figure out how much rain we're actually going to get.

CMC also likes to give us lots of snow in the winter.

I seriously had to look several times because I know that we were in deep purple, but it's intriguing that the map seemed to have updated it even after you copy and pasted it. They definitely lowered rainfall totals in the range of 1 to 3 days. I could still use an inch though.

0z CMC had a weak tropical system.come up? Lots of rain

Models backed off a bit.. Euro is still fun though.. let's see what 12z brings

What smoke

Hopefully it's like Leominster Round 2, but a little further west.

That's not the map I originally posted. Its the updated one. I did a copy/paste, so I guess it links. They have definitely been making some adjustments.

Better late than never!

94 yesterday...should easily eclipse that today.

72/68 today's going to suck.

I work in Home Improvement and deal with massive yellow jacket nests all the time. Buy a bottle of Taurus SC. The active ingredient is Fipronil which is the same stuff used for flea and ticks on dogs like the brevecta collar. A few second spray to soak the entrance hole and they are gone in 24 hours. They carry the stuff in and it wipes the nest out completely. Its not repellent so I spray the entrance from a distance during the day. They just think it's water/raining and don't bother you. Since Taurus is non-repellent, insects do not detect it and do not avoid it. Over it, they will consume or distribute Taurus SC across the colony.

Pretty sure I recall @bluewave stating that the Euro was too warm for last winter....but you're right for the most part.

Not too bad here
