    Biocontrol showing signs of protection against EAB in second growth ash stands in the Midwest. There are also many pockets of ash in very remote locations in Maine that stand a chance. I have been injecting my ash shade trees and will continue to do so. Sad thing is ash is a huge part of creation story for eastern Algonquin tribes like wabanaki.

    We’re rocking in western Maine this afternoon. Some good sized hail in this cell. GYX just barely hoisted the warnings in time. .

    I think it’s a big shedding event. Seeing it all over southern Maine and eastern New Hampshire. It’s too widespread and sudden to be pest related imo. If it’s needlecast that’s a big deal given how widespread. Most trees will recover

    Wood heat plus mini splits plus heat pump hot water heater is the way. They’ve been doing that in Quebec for years since electricity is so cheap there. With the any income rebates in Maine plus the fed tax credit it’s a no brainer if you are looking to make a change from oil heat and window units. Maine has done over 300k installs since 2019.

    Duluth, Minnesota is basically Portland, ME circa 2013 but add two ski hills and a ton of mountain biking in city limits. Old industrial city on a big a** waterbody slowly gentrifying. Time to buy real estate here is now imo. Yesterday’s 40 degrees turned into a breezy 70 degrees and sunny. .

    Not New England but temp bottomed out at 39 on the car thermo on my drive from Minneapolis to Duluth this afternoon. We’ve had some bad Memorial Day weekends in NE but this is another thing altogether. 35 degree temp drop in 2 hours from MSP. Glad we don’t live here .

    Loving this London weather regime. Cool and damp is welcomed this time of year.

    Man you’re courageous riding the roads around here. I gave that up years ago for the dirt. Rather hit a tree than get run over by a teenager on their phone

    51 here. Never even got close to advertised highs in mid 60s

    Yes. Get there early

    Tucks and Boot Spur gullies still loaded up as of today. Incredible weather today and no crowds. I’m sure this weekend will be the gong show Tucks is famous for. .

    Great point. The eclipse experience was an open door for millions to share in our collective humanity. That’s why people love it so much, largely because that door is rarely opened in our current society. Imagine if responsible use of psychedelic drugs was the norm. World would be a better place.

    Another poster identified the phenomenon as shadow bands. Worth googling, had no idea about it prior.

    Maybe some small D1 wet slab issues with this next system but then it’ll go isothermal this weekend and you should be good to go. Those buried weak layers will be gone. Spring time hazards will start appearing next week and the lower parts of sherb are probably numbered days.

    Well that was cool. Also saw some weird light wave effect happening on the snow in the field just before and after totality. Can’t post videos or else I’d share. .

    I think those photos were from 16-17 but I’ll let lava confirm. Both good but 16-17 better locally.

    That was a great year. Last one we had that really went big although 17-18 and 18-19 weren’t too bad either. Not sure what to make of this season. Today was great though. .
