2025 Lawns & Gardens Thread. Making Lawns Great Again
jbenedet replied to Damage In Tolland's topic in New England
I’m generally in strong agreement but a carpet of healthy grass does do a lot to protect the home/building foundation. It’s unnatural but can be practical especially if you have gutter systems directed to handle most of the watering in dry/hot spells. -
Saw first honey bee. 58/40 Farmer’s tan incoming.

Kinda funny seeing the title here “please end it”; seeing everyone outside majority of days this month. No one wants it to end. Yea the weather could be a lot better… But right outta winter’s grip, full sun and 50’s with light winds scores really high on the endorphins scale. Not my opinion. Just take a walk…
-
53/39 Normal for April 15.
-
49/37 We April.
-
I’m running +7 for the month. It’s impressive given the context of the teleconnections and MJO; not overall. That was my point.
-
A coating in December and a March with April averages but it was a long winter.
-
If it was in the direct sun it would be reading 50+. You surely are smart enough to know that…but given that you keep saying the same thing…I guess not. It’s funny to think that this is more tainted by sun with the many buildings around…vs where you guys get your obs from open airfields… You guys fail in judgment. You’d have a better argument claiming UHI in a city of 35k.
-
What an impressive warm stretch; even without major help from teleconnections and MJO… In that regard things flip biased +AN next week to end of the month. March gonna end here with April temperature averages. A coating in December and a March with April averages but it was a long winter.

44/31 average high 43. We torch
-
That’s exactly my point. You have a recency bias. It’s otherwise common; i.e climo. 60” is 5’ of snow. Just in case you guys are still struggling through the judgement side of this.
-
Winter ended Feb 25th and I had <40” snow vs average of 60+ but “normal winter” because we maintained a pack. This place has mid Atlantic climo (recency) bias now.
-
Scary
-
It’s all entertaining. It’s like you all forgot what is a normal winter in colder sections of New England. Having a consistent pack in Jan and Feb is normal lol. I average 60” a year.
-
Winter quite literally ending 6 weeks early vs the calendar and it’s not a short winter? You guys must live very difficult lives. Everything isn’t complicated. Also groundhogs day must be a recurring day a violence.
-
It was overall very different, yes. But again resulted in a much shorter winter.
-
Yawn. Let’s see the balance with Morch factored in. I was near normal for Jan and Feb; this month gonna tilt it well above.
-
Another very short winter. Past few years were like 4 months of late March; December—>april 1. This year was a winter Jan and February but a fall December and spring March.
-
Nice. Yea that would have been a good choice. For me it was Rte 1 and 1A mostly in Portsmouth and Rye.

9.8 Divine.
-
62/35 Gorgeous out...
-
The interesting thing is that from an H5 standpoint this flags very cold and very dry. The real mystery is why it wasn't...
-
Disagree. We saw both - arctic direct to the central US, but also SE Canada. SE Canada was very cold throughout. Completely different than last few years. We saw numerous clippers out of Ontario with arctic behind...
-
What’s pretty remarkable is we had the arctic open right in our backyards from Jan through most of February but still had near normal temps for the balance.
-
32 for low but already up to 35/34
