    This is how you draw up a Memorial Day Weekend weather-wise. Bluebird every day, warm afternoons, very low RH. Noticed while hiking that a sweaty shirt would dry up in ridiculously quick time in this airmass. Also very interesting to see how long it takes for leaf-out to occur on the northern VT hilltops. It struck me that it is the last week of May, Memorial Day weekend, and the hardwoods are still just budding. It takes a surprisingly long time to go full foliage.

    Still got two hours before darkness. You’ll be asleep before a hoodie would be required, beautiful evening. Standing at 3,300ft right now at 7pm, just suffering through it in shorts and a t-shirt.

    Got to 81F here too, with dews in mid-30s… 20% RH. 46 degree diurnal swing from patchy frost at 35F to 81F. What a day.
  4. powderfreak
    72F and rising off a low of 35F. Can’t draw it up better.

    46F and falling, but this should be the coolest night in a while. What a time to be alive it seems. Clear sailing for as far as one can see. Goes out through Thursday too, past the NWS icon forecast. Getting warm with low dews. San Diego in New England. Cheers all... to the warm season

    Anyone have any model runs from that event? That was the 30+ at Whiteface too. Best possible event for green foliage and snow.

    Another great Chamber day, almost a little cool.

    lol yeah I’m ready too. Memorial Day Weekend is time. It has been a bit on the chilly side some days. I’ve gone from shorts back to pants some of these days. Could get rid of the highs in the 50s, sun or not. 70s here on out would be nice.

    You'd have liked this vegetation damaging fake cold this morning. 45F at 1,500ft... 37F at 1,000ft... 32F at 850ft... 29-30F under 800ft. 16 degree difference up Mountain Road (108) from near home to ski area.

    Looks like as far south as TAN and IJD dipped into the 30s. IJD hitting 37s now on 5-min readings.

    God damn. 29F neighbor’s PWS, 30F at MVL. Solid freeze out there. Growing season, not yet. Plants think it’s very real cold, but also very fake. Spruce Peak base at 1500ft showing 46F while gardens in town get freezer burn.

    Just saw the Euro has 0.0” QPF here through Day 10. LFG, that’s awesome. Outside every day until late in the evening, no worry about packing rain gear at any time. Let’s go San Diego. Hopefully that lasts for a while. What a sick stretch coming up again.

    Mid-50s north to mid-60s south. Pretty crisp non-rain air mass for this sun angle.

    We joke and jest, but sometimes it strikes me as amazing how plants and vegetation ever survived prior to artificial watering . Good examples of fake cold last night… temp bouncing all over. 36-37F, then puff of wind and it’s 45F, then back to 30s, cloud overhead back to mid-40s, etc.
  15. powderfreak
    36F. Made it 4 days without rainfall?
  16. powderfreak
    830pm and down to 42F at neighbor’s PWS. Looks like higher up towards 1500ft is 39-42F with breeze. Hoping the wind and clouds can keep us away from frost.
  17. powderfreak
    Yeah my lab seems to tolerate it. And it seems to work, ticks seem dead or barely alive if we find any at all. Seems to be a few a summer but this dog spends almost daily hours off leash in woods, mountains and fields.
  18. powderfreak
    Getting some breaks of sunshine again after a few hours of rainfall. 48F and breezy. Much colder than this morning.
  19. powderfreak
    Maybe some who put their window units in 5-6 weeks ago might get to use them?
  20. powderfreak
    Doors and windows slammed shut. Got up to 66F and then immediately down to 50F at the base of the ski area and 51F in town. Going to be a raw cold afternoon, playing out as modeled. Temp is now lower than this morning's dew point.
  21. powderfreak
    We keep holding off on planting the garden, thinking each one will be the last. 6z GFS was cold tonight again. NAM is upper 30s though and would avoid the frost. Memorial Day weekend is historically the "safe" time to start thinking it won't frost/freeze anymore here. So seems right on cue.
  22. powderfreak
    Don't notice them so much in the village and town, maybe it's all the open farm land in the valley around here... but man the minute one gets into the woods a bit or up into the mid-slope elevations... today was brutal. And came out of nowhere, almost nothing yesterday. Hatching day or something.
  23. powderfreak
    Black flies have finally reached the north. Ripping flesh off mid-slope.
  24. powderfreak
    lol going to be rough. 3pm with 44F at MVL and probably near 40F up here at the office as 850s go negative, while the rest of ya wander around in shorts and t-shirts. That RUT 40F is absolutely a wild prog though if it's 72F at GFL and 74F at VSF.
  25. powderfreak
    33F. Looks like HIE, BML, SLK all snuck below freezing.
