No idea what you two are talking about. Doesn’t look cold or wet next week lol. Scooter wasn’t calling for that either . Next week should be nice overall . Maybe showers mid week but warm, dewy flow vs cold. ACATT lol

wanna bet?

I’m just saying to watch that cut off. It could cause some bad weather for sure and also cooler temps. There’s still some uncertainty.

Is there a such thing as too much water for seed? Asking for my lawn.

yup there is, but just be patient. it will dry out before you know it 

seriously though, i know you're talking about rainfall, which you obviously can't control. but when not raining, just need to keep it moist

1.2” today, 3” MTD

Drove through the Tolland triangle on I-84 today. survived.

Fucking sick of these windy days.

Had to check our forecast before I commented, but this is one of the thought processes that I go through during the warm season. Like two days ago I have no qualms about going "showers likely" but once you get to today I ask myself what public perception is going to be. Are they going to step outside and say it's showering, or it's raining. If it's the latter, I make sure I change the wording from showers to rain. 

To that end, I almost always go "rain" when PoP is 75% or greater. 

you’re fine. My comment was directed to a particular poster in Tolland who has held firm on his forecast of just showers for today.

over an inch of “just showers” so far

GFS low 30’s 18z Saturday. Unless you have precip rates ripping good luck. Not a snowballs’s chance in hell. 
 

Those northeast winds at the surface are advecting from areas 45-50F in NB, by the way….

 

2.5” and has been under 33 degrees all morning great call!

Too early to throw down some grass seed to repair patches?

it's close, you want soil temps above 50. usually forsythia blooms are a good indicator of when it is time-but keep in mind shady areas need more time (and you really don't want cold nights)

Did you read their reasoning?  It's MA that they think has the greatest potential to see gusts to 50 mph with other zones peaking 35-45 mph.  Maybe they are wrong, but they state why they are doing what they are doing.  Calling them laughable is over the top...

you must be new here

yesterday afternoon turned out OK, was able to get a little yard work done

that said, this weather sucks ass. Aside from a couple tiger lilies poking up, not much is happening spring-wise. The red maples have the usual red buds, but those take 2 months to open up.

Pretty cool to see a battle in very early spring where the warmth ultimately wins. 

we 70+

High temp records look threatened. 

congrats on your high of 51 yesterday.

rotting at 45 here. Still waiting for the 60+ that the pope-a-wheelie promised

1921 was a bit of a unicorn - not sure it reached up that far in Maine. Back then there probably wasn't a whole helluva lot goin' on up there I'm guessin' so no exposure, but who knows.

But interior SNE was demolished.  It would be interesting to redux that sucker given modern demographic explosion while dependency on infrastructure and all that.  And in fact, it extended almost to shore zones.  Pretty much the entire region was dealt 2.5"+ accretion. Reports were as high as 4" of rhymed gray.   Thing is, it was later reanalyzed to have had a coastal storm get involved of all things. Highly...highly unusual delivery method. 

DIT just got 2.5" of accretion in his dungarees.
