Your wipers work well. What brand are they?

Not to give too much away but I have on good authority that the focus of the movie will be on family. The story will focus on a woman (probably going back to her hometown for the holidays). She will meet a potential love interest- maybe even a former flame. Sadly there will be a misunderstanding and it appears that they will never get past it. Phew, they connect at the end just in time for Christmas morning to find that Santa has brought love and a puppy. Sadly Santa took the first batch of rain just to my south. Hopefully some showers for the garden later.

Yeah, I had a typo. I put "not" instead of "now". Digger used to be a place where the comments were helpful and often included people who were involved in the story or policy makers. Then the CAX crowd moved in. For a paper with a leftist slant, the comments had a very right wing slant. It was rather incongruous.

My favorite one is the person who moved here to get away from people from out of state. Kettle meet pot. In all seriousness, why do you check those pages? It just seems depressing and angering. Every now and then I would read the WCAX comments and quickly be reminded at how nasty the world can be. They shut down the comment eventually and those folks moved to VT Digger who have now shut their comments. It is brutal but is sometimes just the same ten names over and over. Enjoy your summer and enjoy Killington and stay off Facebook.

Doubled your seasonal total for 19-20?

85/69 at KLEB already compared to 82/66 at the same time yesterday when it hit 96. I guess that is what you get when working off a of 73 instead of 60.

yeah, just haven't gotten that far yet. Kinda hoping just for a stiff breeze. Thank you.

No, I don't have a chainsaw but I will likely get one at some point as I do have over 6 acres of woods. When we lived in Peacham I had friends with chainsaws which is almost as good.

So about 5:30 I was finishing up my cleanout of the garage (a lovely weekend to be doing that might I add) when I took some wood out to put on the woodpile. When I did this I discovered that a pretty large maple had broken at the base as was not on top of our two cars only because it was snagged up above on another maple. Instead of going inside and cleaning up, I moved the cars and spent the next two plus hours working on bringing the tree the rest of the way down with an axe. Sadly things were slowed by my axe handle breaking and my constantly being swarmed by bugs. Good times. Tree is still up, waiting for a decent breeze or a fixed axe. I was making good progress with a crow bar to get rid of rotten bits. Sadly we are about to get a 7-10 split with the line of storms racing through as I think they would have done the trick. 96 topped things off at KLEB and 95 at BTV. We are back to a humid 73. I doubt we hit 90 here because as soon as the sun went behind the trees at 4ish we went from 97 to 84 in a span of 5 minutes. yes my sensor is in the pm sun for a couple of hours.

96/65 at KLEB

94/66 in KLEB

KLEB?

Only 11 weeks until we get snow, you can make it.

Comet viewing cancelled here. Too cloudy. Plus I don't want to stay up that late.

Was it visible with the naked eye or did you use binoculars?

This inspired me to lookup the hottest rain event as I had a memory of it being set a couple of years ago. 119F in Imperial Valley. Dew at the time was only 58. https://www.wunderground.com/cat6/Hottest-Rain-Record-Rain-falls-119F-Imperial-California This article says highest recorded dew was 95 in 2003 in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. https://wgntv.com/weather/weather-blog/ask-tom-why/what-are-the-highest-dew-points-worldwide-and-for-the-u-s/ It was supposedly 108 at the time, for a heat index of 178! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2015/07/30/iran-city-hits-suffocating-heat-index-of-154-degrees-near-world-record/ Back in 95, Appleton WI was 101/90 for a heat index of 148.i https://www.wunderground.com/blog/weatherhistorian/record-dew-point-temperatures.html I

Is that some weird new mulch?

Wife called, we have some water in the basement. Drought to mushrooms.

Consider parts of the Champlain Valley as it does not retain snow compared to the rest of Vermont. You can observe this for a bit as you visit your daughter.

A bunch of flash flood warnings were issued early this morning and it has just kept raining up there since: https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=gyx&wwa=flash flood warning

Looks to be massive amounts of rain falling in the Ct Valley north of me up towards Newbury Vt/ Woodsville NH area.
