  1. Sugarloaf and Metherb been MIA for months its seems. I know many posters take breaks, hope that's it.
  2. High of only 80 today, but dews were still 62-65 most of the day. Felt better than recent days, but not some super comfortable Canadian airmass.
  3. I picked up 3 bee balm plants late last year on sale for $3 at a local nursery l, forget the name, but they're pink and loaded with bees also. Nice to see.
  4. Right, it's not like it was some super anomalous cool shot, just pretty much normal like you said. Felt good though compared to recent weeks. Even down here average low is about 59 right now, and my low was 58, so again pretty normal. I remember a few years ago 4th of July was really chilly at night. I remember being outside with multiple layers and blankets later at night..must have been low-mid 40's I'm sure for low, like you said balancing out those lows in the 60s.
  5. 30" here with an average prob in the low-mid 80"s. More awfuller. I have mentioned this before, but I honestly think Bennington VT had under 10"..like 7-8". Absurd even for Bennington standards, they still prob average 60-65". 15-16 was all time rat in SVT.
  6. Similar down this way. My wife works for a real estate company and out of state buyers are purchasing stuff sight unseen, cash, within hours of some homes being listed. Ever since I've been here its normally a really slow market with most stuff being listed for many months and even on and off for years. Just today someone from NY called looking for a rental during the school year to send their kid to one of the schools here, budget was 10k month for the rental.
  7. Yea, no valley/downslope screw jobs in that east/west jack zone. Even Bennington had 20-24".
  8. Last night was first time a long while it seems we got down into the 50s. Total COC today and perfect evening unfolding...
  9. Posted this yesterday in the NNE thread, just wanted to put this here as well. This Facebook post was yesterday, there were 5 positive Covid tests from just this one clinic in town here. My wife is friends with the Doctor at the clinic and they had 26 more positive cases just today. 31 in 2 days in a small VT community seems like a big outbreak.
  10. Damn, looks like a possible covid cluster here locally in Manchester. 5 positives in 1 day from a town of 4500 people seems pretty high. It's been zoo of out of staters the past month or so, which I guess was expected with stuff reopening.
  11. Some house shakers rolling through..been a quite a while since I can even remember any thunder and lightning that wasnt 20 miles away.
  12. All water holes nice and warm with the pretty much sustained sun and warmth..felt like mid 70s maybe..kids enjoyed a nice dip
  13. Seem to have a nice force field up this summer with lots of 7/10s and decaying storms, but at least a parting gift looking east over the Greens..
  14. Here we go again with EEE.. WCVB Boston: Massachusetts health officials report season’s first EEE positive mosquito sample. https://www.wcvb.com/article/massachusetts-first-eee-positive-mosquito-sample/33138531
  15. I know this is a broken record at this point, but what the hell is going on there? Looks like a plowed field ready for some crop planting. At this point maybe just hope weeds grow and fill in the all the bare spots?
  16. With the amount of convection around SVT since Monday feel kind of hosed at only 1.02" for the 3 days.
  17. Some serious bad luck Gene to only have 3/4 of inch in 6 weeks. Think you will score some decent rains the next few days. Picked up around .60" or so today through 3 or 4 different cells rotating through from the north. Much needed.
  18. Doubled up yesterday's .02" with a whopping .04" today. Just got to hope for some hits the next 3 days.
  19. Anybody ever use Cedar Oil as insect /bug repellent on the yard? Thinking about doing a blanket spray around the yard, but wasnt sure if it wouldn't actually do anything and I have alot of area to spray.
  20. Just got back home and see .48" in gauge. Not sure how much of that actually went into the rock hard ground, but will take it.
  21. Deck getting close to completion, water is a ridiculous 81F for June.
  22. Meanwhile another 0.0 in the books here. Hopefully we can get something more widespread today and tonight.
  23. Duxbury cocorahs came in at 3.09" @powderfreak So right on the money with radar estimates.
  24. I think a little under 1" for June precip so far. I was peeking at my cocorahs and I dont see any summer months lower than 2.55". Small sample size, but that was the lowest back to 2015. Most summer months are 4-7" going back to 2015. Guess that's why I have never seen the lawn so brown.
  25. Yes, I do. Just keep watering, but not over water it. It's already stressed, adding N will only stress it more IMO.
