Nice waves in Welfleet:

Falmouth not so much

45 outside, 50 at the kitchen island- I probably shouldn't have left all the windows open last night

I shudder at how bad the hype would be:

Do a trip to 5 Islands Lobster in Georgetown and combine it with a visit to the beach at Reid state park which is only 2 or 3 miles down the road on the same peninsula. Frosty's in Brunswick is only open 4 days a week but makes great donuts. https://apps.web.maine.gov/cgi-bin/online/doc/parksearch/details.pl?park_id=13 https://fiveislandslobster.com/ https://www.frostysdonuts.com/

Who looks ridiculous now!

Folks who want to see Rainn Wilson, William Macy, and Steve Zahn all in one movie perhaps?

48 was the low here.

Try planting bamboo.

I think it will be too south of here to feel an effect.

In June we went below 60 on 21 of the 30 nights with a monthly low of 36. In July we have been below 60 4 of 14 nights. So even with the hot days here cool down at night and with open windows at night and closed during the day the house is very comfortable most of the time. That being said I was going to put the AC in 2 or 3 weeks ago but could not find one of the two side accordian bits and was too tired at that point in the day to rig up some cardboard to close the gap in the window. One of the plus sides to having a house at over 1200" surrounded by trees and hills.

I broke down and installed this morning. Not too hot, just too dewy

Just had a couple of VT Water Search and Rescue vehicles pass me on Rte 100 south of Stowe. They were zooming north with sirens on.

Wasn't July 4, 2015 colder than Christmas Day 2015?

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?
