  1. That could be the dead ash trees from the emerald ash borer too, I saw a lot of those along that stretch last summer. I was out in western Orange County last weekend and the hillsides along 84 had lots of bare spots from the caterpillars. I’ve heard the New England guys talk about this for a couple years and now I see it in person it’s no joke. Up to .23” on the day with rain still falling.
  2. Will see what happens with the batch heading in now but the showers here earlier today looked more impressive on radar then they were thru the tipper. We shall see.
  3. Around here the radar is more impressive looking than what's actually falling thus far.
  4. It started with the smaller trees near me, now there are numerous fully grown huge oaks completely bare. The maples and others are getting chomped up too but at least IMBY the oaks are the worst.
  5. Pretty odd looking at trees bare like December in such a high sun angle.
  6. Thanks Gene and glad to see that all is well!
  7. There are 15-20 younger trees planted over the past 5 years along the road in the park, maybe 15-20 feet tall, completely wiped clean.
  8. 0.00 here, did have a very light sprinkle about an hour ago. Heavy chewed leaf and caterpillar poop though.
  9. Coldest day in years forecasted here...
  10. Looking at the last 12 months (6/1/23-5/31/24), 9 were above normal IMBY. Over that period I recorded 73.19", my average is 45.25"
  11. 11 of the last 16 months have had above normal precip, a number of which were WELL above normal. Its been quite the wet streak.
  12. .90” for this event which puts me at 5.12” for May…yay
  13. .64 yesterday, 4.22 for the month. Another dusting of caterpillar poop as well this morning.
  14. Yeah, so these damn caterpillars….light to moderate poop and chomped leaf drop here all weekend. Just sitting outside under a patio umbrella and it sounded like very light rain falling. Disgusting.
  15. Numerous trees down on cars and buildings
  16. Like I said in the NW thread, I don't recall ever seeing a request for so many UTV for a call that's not a brushfire.
  17. I knew that cell went through Greenwood Lake but I didn't realize it was that bad. I do now after looking at the fire calls from this morning, at least one tree on a car and numerous trees on houses I saw after taking a quick glance. I dont recall seeing a request for that many UTVs before for something other than a brush fire.
  18. Just some light rain up here for the most part but there was one bolt of lightning that must have hit the tower at the top of the hill because the flash and crashing boom were at essentially the same time. It got my plague flowing for sure.
  19. Nothing is wrong with that. Whining about it on a daily basis is a different story.
  20. It would kill any shot at decent foliage
  21. Thank you. Sunday looking relatively decent now. I was going to mow after work but of course those pop up showers are going right over my yard.
  22. I'm getting better!! Agreed, not much to talk about. Sadly I think Ive got use to the rain every couple to few days.
  23. Good morning, is there anybody alive out there?! Up to .52" for this event. 2.70" for the month so its looking like another above normal month here. My son got married at Notre Dame on 5/4/24, a fantastic weekend all around! The weather turned out great out there that day. My son and daughter-in-law are doing it again this Sunday in NJ for all friends and family (Notre Dame was a relatively small affair). Hoping the rain gets out of here by Sunday afternoon.
