    .65" yesterday. Meanwhile the wildfires are brutal in Quebec. The smoke is just now crossing into extreme NNE. Wonder how far south it makes it with the BD cold front? If it does make it to me in CNE and we have some afternoon T storms it is going to be pretty dark.

    Meanwhile glad we don't live in Quebec.

    EAB arrived here a few years ago. Ash are dying like crazy. My neighbor just cut 3 dead ones down. We spent $600 last year to treat our 2 ash. Brian, by the way the 3 chestnut seedlings we bought several years ago are doing great. The biggest one is now about 7 feet tall. Frost killed the first leave sprouts but they bounced back.

    Oh that's right. Gypsy moth's are no longer politically correct.

    As of June 15th things are nice and green in my hood of Central NH. We took a ride down R93 to the Mass line and boy have the oak trees taken a beating. Around here they are starting to leaf back out after the May freeze but south of here towards Concord many are bare. Gypsy Moths plus the freeze? Maybe Brian would know since he travels that stretch.

    If it had been overcast it would have been near midnight dark. This has happened a few times in history but this is definitely a once in a generation (at least) event. The upper low over Quebec was in the perfect position to drive the smoke plume down the coast.

    This is a once in a life time event for the Northeast. Perfect setup to bring smoke down from Quebec. I have been watching the Empire State Building Cam. Earlier it was hard to see over the East River. Now I can not see even street level. This is with clear skies. If it had been overcast or thunderstorm activity I could see how those dark days of yesteryear could have happened.

    View is so low you can not see ground level atop Empire State Building. If there had been cloud cover over thunderstorms it would be night black

    Total ground stop LGA

    NYC at 12:45 100% clear skies over the Tri State area. This is the view from the Empire State Building looking east. You can't see across the East River so that is 1.4 miles away. A once in a generation (perhaps) smoky day

    Normally there would be a west component to the wind but there has been a big upper low around Nova Scotia. That has been bringing the upper level winds south. Take a look at the satellite pictures. You can clearly see it. The low will eventually weaken which will improve air quality somewhat but there are many fires burning across Canada so don't expect dark blue skies anytime soon

    These Canadian wildfires are really exploding today. Amazing how much smoke is coming down into the US. I wonder why this season started so early?

    Flow is bring the Quebec fires south into the East Coast.

    1pm 30F with moderate snow atop the Rockpile. Grabbed this picture a bit earlier. 47F with rain in my hood.

    About .60" yesterday. I wonder what the June record number of hours below 50F is for my location 48.7F as of solar noon

    Heavy thunderstorm moved through. Not severe but pretty close. Lots of lightning and .43" rain

    Tomorrow is June 1rst so it is time for a NNE warm season thread. Going into the summer May has been very dry. Probably the biggest weather event was the late freeze on the morning of May 18th. Just about everyone got down into the 20s and I think there might have been a few teens? The oak trees around here took a big hit. The small leaves had just emerged and now the oaks are mostly bare with brown dead curled up leaves. I'm sure they will bounce back quickly. Below is the regional precipitation deficit for the month and a chart of my temperatures and rainfall here in Central NH.

    There is one batch of smoke moving NNW that is over SE New England that seems pretty thick. Then less smoke over the Atlantic. Over the past few hours another big fire looks to have started in NS.

    50.4F on the other side of the cold front up here.. Behind the cold front the air is crystal clear. About .10 with the convection. Awaiting the afront rain coming in.

    Aurora tonight? Skies should clear out, at least up here and there is no moon. Currently a solar storm is going on. Will it continue tonight? Spaceweather.com

    I'm all for a good soak. GFS still shows jack way down in E Mass. So much divergence in modeling so close to go time. The freeze did a number on my Chestnut trees. New leaves will fill right in.
