Happy 4th of July. 

 

Yeah but did they install?  What are the dews?

59 to start the day, had the windows open all night, wonderful for sleeping!  House is cooled back down. 

Showers have come through here, maybe some more later too.

Down to 72.  Humid still but summer's back is broken.

Does that say 102 by Pawtucket/Central Falls or is that a trick of the eye?

KLEB already at 90 at 10 am.  8F ahead of yesterday when they topped out at 99.

Ouch.  Your best bet may be to move the papers, dig down a few feet and drop a weed cloth, perforated pipe, and crushed stone, top with pea gravel for the entire paver area.  Run that pipe to the woods if possible. If not, get past the house and dig a wide catch basin (there's a specific plastic part to drop in that spot, I can't recall the name).  Unfortunately with standing water like that you can't do a half solution.

That is my general plan.  I believe the pipe is already in place the water can't get to it because of how solid the "soil" is above it.

Friday was a nice display of the compaction and drainage issues I mentioned recently about why I am having trouble maintaining grass in the area below.

I am both curious to know what Google search terms lead to this picture being found and at the same time afraid to know what those terms were.

Is there a reason why my neighbor would be mowing his lawn every 2 to 3 days?
He’s only 60 and retired so it could just boredom but maybe there is a good reason for mowing that frequently?  
i’m not going to ask him because I find it all a little annoying and he’ll probably detect that in my voice.

edit: this is the same person, who will spend Sunny days in late February and early March, snowblowing snow from shady sections of the yard into sunny sections to melt it quicker.

 

We used to have a neighbor that did this and he usually did it right as it was getting dark/ bed time for our kid back then.  We assumed he did it to get an hour away from his wife.

This spot looks like they had to reset their gauge early 

3.82 today after 2.05 yesterday

After spending 7-8 hours standing in 50F Noreaster rain last weekend at a huge lacrosse tournament here, let's do it again this morning for another big event. Only 4 hours this time . It's comical at this point.

There is no doubt that Vermont, the North County, and northern New Hampshire have seen their fair share of rain and wet weekends lately. Burlington International Airport, where records are kept for the state, has recorded measurable precipitation every weekend since March 22 and 23, but even that weekend had snow flurries.

To find the last completely dry weekend at Burlington International, you have to go all the way back to the weekend of December 14 and 15, 2024, nearly 25 weeks ago.

Many of you have asked us if this nearly six month long stretch of wet weekends is a record-breaker. Meteorologist Peter Kvietkauskas and the First Alert Weather team combed through several thousand days worth of data dating back all the way to 1884 to find out. While we are getting close, we haven’t broken a record yet. There was a longer stretch between 1934 and 1935.

 

this cant be good

rain just restarted here fortunately.  it had been dry here for at least 6 or 7 hours and I was getting worried about possible drought conditions.

Meh. Heat is done. Even that period after next weekend looks meh.

I think we can agree that Summer's back is broken.  Sure we may see a warm or even hot day here or there but soon we will be sipping hot fresh cider and peeping at leaves.

Had a few rumbles an hour or two ago.  two tenths of rain this morning so far.
