I'm sure many of us hope to hear to you say this Dec-Feb LOL

71 for the low here, warmest minimum of the year, disguising.

92 for the high here, not memorable in the least allow it’s the first 90 plus in a while here, I guess that’s exciting. I’ve had one low that remained above 70 and that low was 70.

Same here

Maybe we'll get our first heat wave this weekend into early next week.

Anyone out here in the ‘burbs have a heat wave yet? For July I have had four days with highs of at least 90 but I haven’t had any back to back let alone three in a row.

Yeah, that sucks for sure . I've often said, I have no idea how farmers do it, as there are so many things against you when you're trying to grow things, especially food.

Surprised there was no installation that late into spring.

Is your yard fenced in? As you saw in my photo, there is no way the deer herd around me would allow for lower branches like yours. Looks good.

Thanks. The photo is deceiving a bit as I’m standing uphill, the tree is at least 8’ tall now.

I'll grab a photo when I get home. Mine came in a cardboard box that FedEx delivered. The stems on the top of the tree were bent a bit to get it into the box so I was concerned last year when I planted it but over time those stems straightened out last season. Actually there is some bending of the new stems this year due to the growth and some of the recent downpours but I can see them getting more straight again already.

I have a white birch that's about 10 years old and for several years the leaves would turn yellow by late June and they would drop in August. After trying various things over the years thinking it was something on the leaves this season after taking a closer look at the soil I figured out it appears to have been an iron deficiency. The tree has responded very well to iron treatments and with that has come some decent growth. Then last week I had a birch bending downpour, the top third of the tree was leaning pretty good. I tied it up to straighten it as much as I could for a few days, with success. Then had another downpour Saturday and the top quarter of the tree is leaning the other way, LOL.

I bought a 6-7' Autumn Blaze Red Maple from them last May, Dendrite, you may have actually mentioned this site to me here. Anyway, I would buy from them again in a heartbeat. The tree I got was nice and full. I got solid new growth on it last season and its nice and full this year.

.01 overnight here

Yesterday’s total was 1.04”, the Davis was clogged so my reading comes from the Stratus. That said, the storm that just blew through here was way heavier than anything I say yesterday. Small branch’s and twigs all over the yard, eggplant, peppers, and zuc took a beating, the bride ain’t happy. .54” which fell in 10-15 minutes, the birch is now leaning the other way, I can’t win.

.76”

.40 here

I’ll be surprised if I break 1”

You must be chuckling a bit to yourself with the way folks are getting "crushed" today...how quickly did you get to the 3.53" again?

My mother in New Windsor has 3.9" in her non-Davis, an impressive dump over that way.

To be fair, that intersection has had flash flooding issues for decades, no disrespect to the deluge today though. I remember in the great '93--'94 winter that intersection flooded during the storm around 1/17 when it dumped snow in the morning, 6-8" as I recall, before a warm front blasted through changing it to rain. That evening the arctic front came through causing not only a change back to snow but a flash freeze that left roads more or less undriveable for a good week. Anyway, when it changed to rain that intersection was under water, not as bad as today but bad enough.
