    i am not sure anyone is making a profit here, but i could be wrong

    Drove through a downpour in MHT earlier. Temp dropped from 99 to 79 instantly. Then it sauna-ed. gross

    thanks. walking across the alewife brook parkway in cambridge is kind of like playing Frogger, even if you do have the walk signal. i think the hot weather makes people even more insane than they already were.

    just walked across the street to get lunch. hot as balls.

    my dewpoint sensor on my pws is wacked. an hour ago it had a temp of 90 (accurate) with a dewpoint of -9, with a heat index of 135. if the dewpoint really was -9, i am pretty sure my skin would crack and fall off my bones in about 20 seconds.

    you can feel (and smell) the sea breeze here in Cambridge. the sun is blazing, but that little breeze helps a bit.

    herpes?

    there is def. a lack of water going on. hard to tell about fert without seeing it and knowing how much or what you put down. either way, a decent amount of rain today should help quite a bit. unfortunately with that slope, heavy rains are just going to runoff and not drain into the soil. but every little bit helps.

    1.4" in the month of May. could possibly double that just today. as of this AM, up to 2.8” in June

    That front meant business, for about 10mins. Lost a fairly large maple tree, split about 30’ up

    yeah lava you need water, and plenty of it. new grass will die off quickly with lack of water. you didn't have a wet fall, and spring has been quite dry since mid-April. can you install irrigation off of your existing well?

    informative? hardly. i couldnt get past this (bolded emphasis mine):

    what's the big deal (assuming it is a big deal to the severe weenies). 90+% of the general public has no clue what a derecho even is, including myself.

    agree with Bob, aerating this time of year is just an invitation for the weeds, especially crab grass. you could at least spread some fertilizer, not a big investment and the right stuff will work well. Also, may not be the best time, but lime pellets are pretty cheap so it's not like you would be throwing your money away.

    plus, what you said about the timing is important. it is hard to get a new lawn established this time of year. the sun is brutal, and the new grass has to compete with weeds, which have already seeded. last year i put some loam down and seeded an area where i can't get any water to. this was mid-September. granted it is a mostly shady area, but that grass came in better than a lot of areas i have done, mostly because of the time of year. the only water it was getting was from morning dew.
  16. SJonesWX
    Lava, I strongly recommend that you rototill that area. it has dried out so much it is probably wicked compacted. Putting new loam on top will be nice, but the roots will have a hard time penetrating that cement.

    you just gave WWiz a microburst in his Wranglers
  18. SJonesWX
    why don't you just use Roundup?

    when your forsythia bloom you are good to go. based on your location, i am assuming that has not happened yet
  20. SJonesWX
    technically it doesn’t blow
  21. SJonesWX
    we get it. stop posting the same crap over and over and over

    well to be fair, the forecasts leading up to the event were in feet, not inches. the TV mets were going bananas.

    Our new Dover, NH posters would have loved March 5-6 2001. not sure how much the Dover area got, but not too far west/southwest of them got crushed. the route 101 corridor and south, I think some parts had up to 30". i remember being disappointed that i only got around 2', but I am not exactly sure what i ended up with. i was a younger weenie with no record keeping abilities. that was in the CON area.

    6-10 moon shadows, with lollis to 16

    you know, even though we have been trapped under the wheel of ‘rhea, I don’t think it really has been that bad. A week ago it looked like we were going to have off and on rain, with cooler temps. Yes, the temps have been pretty chilly for this time of year, but aside from last weekend, i haven’t seen much rain. *yes, I also realize that this weekend is going to suck.
