    Where is all this heat? 87/64

    If we are going to be stuck in Mass then Berkshire East is the best terrain we have...unless we all storm Brodie.

    Last week I worked on the neighbor's lawn a bit with a thatching rake after the storm. Lots of dead/dormant grass. Pretty impressed with how it is filling in and greening up in 5-6 days. Just goes to show how grass keeps growing in this heat with little rain if you get that crap out of it.

    For you maybe. It makes sense given your high elevation puts you closer to the sun.

    Hope everyone is enjoying the last real torch of the year. Cider doughnut season cometh!

    Only about 0.2" in a brief downpour. It all helps. Wife's tomato plants have gone wild in the heat. We have a couple well over 6' and producing non-stop red and orange cherry tomatoes. The big fruits are just starting to redden up. Storms are trying to form, been pretty dark here the past hour. Temperature has really leveled off at 88* since about 11am.

    The half inch of rain the past week has completely rejuvenated the lawn. Was getting a little off color in one section of the newer fescue planted the spring. 3-4 weeks I will dethatch, overseed, and start a nitrogen blitz.

    Nice breeze yesterday and more today. Makes it quite nice out. Looking forward to the potential for some more storms this evening. We had about two hours of good thunder last night.

    Ah, the best Pringles flavor.

    Only reason I know of this is because the New England Historical Society on FB. They have some really interesting little reads. https://www.newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/the-deadly-october-gale-of-1841/

    So many roads closed in town. Just saw a FB post it took someone almost an hour to get to Ludlow (usually a 10 minute drive) due to all the road closures. Waiting to hear if the Quabbin access road is open. No point in trying to do anything else.

    This is unreal. We have moved to the middle of fhe house. Our living/sun room is getting pelted with branches and had a limb just miss the side of the house. I don't know if it is our exposure on this hill or what. Last hour has been better than Irene was in RI for me.

    What is happening right now?! We are getting thrashed. Gusts have to be above 50. Never seen wind like this.

    Rocking and rolling now. Some good roars.

    Looks like just north of the Mass/VT border is the spot to be. Another impressive cuplet west of Dover. edit: older return

    Tornado on the Mass/VT border.

    Brother-in-law in Manhattan on Pier 17 said wind is really starting to move in the past few minutes. Consistently >35 knots, no real gusts though.

    Some cells really starting to pop in western CT/Mass.

    WTH

    Agreed, it's an afternoon and evening show.

    There was a western shift on models very early this morning. Precip shield looks further west than modeled yesterday too.
  22. PowderBeard
    One to the south looks like it really went nuts on velocity.
  23. PowderBeard
    Maybe some new trails at Berkshire East?
  24. PowderBeard
    This is going to be a wild day.

    The fire tower on top of Mt. Toby will be swaying quite a bit.
