Yeah. Its been perfect cool season grass weather with rain practically every other day here. My lawn and all my plants have been just thriving. Mowing every 3 days at 3 inches and my grass has been literally growing an inch a day. Last fertilizer I put down was some purely organics just after july 4th. Also have hundreds of different species of mushrooms popping every other day.

Shes going to leave you once she finds out you uninstalled...

Man.. going to be a ton of dirty hippys in the Pioneer Valley this week with river levels low. Haha. My hippy aunt in Ashfield said the same thing about river levels.

Sounds like Connecticut Shade Tobacco? I have enjoyed many cigars wrapped in it.

Been a really special summer here...

Ryan explains it here. Looks like he updated it as well with another nearby weather station recording a 97 mph gust. "A nearby personal weather station recorded a gust to 97 mph in Morgan Point (East Haven)" https://ryanhanrahan.substack.com/p/incredible-103-mph-wind-gust

Very localized. Only damage seems to be Lighthouse point and the area that says woodmont on your radar screenshot.

Looks like the carousel building took a direct hit. https://www.wtnh.com/news/connecticut/new-haven/lighthouse-point-park-in-new-haven-closed-due-to-storm-damage/

Lots of damage in the Milford/Orange area. 5k power outages all in one small area.

Upton has storms rolling in again later tonight. KEY MESSAGES... 1) Two rounds of showers and thunderstorms with marginal severe thunderstorm possibility through early Wednesday morning. CAMs indicate two sets of convection that move across the region. One generates late this afternoon with the low level instability and cold frontal forcing, moving from NW to SE across mostly the western half of the region. The second one has more uncertainty and occurs late tonight. Some CAMs have a convective complex moving across the area, mainly across western sections while others having it more to the south of the region.

What a summer..

Yeah. Was out on Pt Judith all week at my sister's beach house. Yesterday was the only day it got above 80. I set this station at my sisters a few years ago. Didn't there used to be a coop station or something out on PT Judith back in the day? Probably one of coolest non island spots in New England. Last above 80 reading was July 15th. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KRINARRA66

At my sister's in Narragansett this week. What a green up here compared to when I was here July 3rd.

Yep. Muggy Meter shows it well.

More rain coming in for BDR. Hopefully they will pull of the wettest July on record.

Just saw some 2.5-3 inch rates on my wunderground station at my sisters place on Pt Judith. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KRINARRA66

BDR is 2nd wettest July. Record is 12.84 July 71.

Working on a house on the water in Milford and its been pretty sunny all day. Tons of people on the beaches.

Yeah. You can see it on wunderground how New England stands out with some cool temps. Crazy how warm it is up near Hudson Bay.
