  1. Just shot up 6F randomly… 84F to 90F in about 20 minutes. Temp jumping around, must be differential heating with cloud cover.
  2. 85/66 Finally that A/C investment is getting some good use.
  3. Can always tell the front lawn across the street from him must face north.
  4. Will we have anything left after the cutter? At least some Swiss cheese frozen solid to go with the black snowbanks please?
  5. 82/70… swamp. Seeing a lot of 90/70 type stuff between ALB and BOS metro west…
  6. Not sure if this works, but there’s video of yesterday’s EF-1 tornado in Vermont on a local met’s social stories. I’m sure it’s elsewhere but haven’t found it yet. Edit: Here it is on Twitter.
  7. EF-1 Confirmed in Vermont yesterday. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=BTV&issuedby=BTV&product=PNS&format=CI&version=3&glossary=0
  8. Just emptied Stratus at 1.07” from yesterday. Good drink. It feels like summer.
  9. Narrow band but someone is going to get some sustained rain-rates in the larger Concord area as it curls ENE? Given the moisture levels/dew/lift... no trouble precipitating today out of this sky.
  10. BTV doing well too, ~1.00” now at the airport. ~0.75” here. It’s been raining since 11:30am for the most part. Synoptic rain style, despite one close strike and thunder. Sounded very weird, wondered if there was an inversion in the valley to impact the sound. It echoed.
  11. Sucks, wished we had known you were looking to avoid people, ha. BTV is definitely a small city. Traffic, parking, bustle. Just on a lower scale. Some great views of the lake, Adirondacks, etc. University of VT, Champlain College, Saint Mikes in the area. Lots of college students even in the summer when classes aren’t in session. I’m with you, I’d rather chill in the woods on vacation than in a more urban area.
  12. I fear Dendrite and I pushed him too far the other day asking him to live on planet earth briefly when having a discussion about science. It certainly wasn’t the intent to drive him off. Of course it happens literally the day before he gets the weather he’s been looking for since April.
  13. Couldn’t be happier for someone with rain lol.
  14. It’s been raining here since 11am and you just got more in 10 minutes . Glad you soaked. Eyeballing the Stratus from the house it looks like somewhere near 0.50” give or take some hundredths.
  15. This is where RH and not temperature comes into the C.O.C. discussion. Been rotting around 70F all day in rain and despite the lower temps, it’s near 100% RH and nasty out. Much grosser outside today than a 85/48 type afternoon.
  16. Agreed.... probably get like 0.40" water in like 5 hours of -RN and then get 0.50" in like 20 minutes of convective moisture evac from the atmosphere, behind this slug of warm frontal precip.
  17. I see they even hit 77F briefly. That's got some oof to it.
  18. Just a gentle soaking rain so far. Running like 0.08/HR type -RN rates. Rare synoptic mid-July rainfall.
  19. There's a solid moisture plume punching well into New England in the lower levels. Dews are going to go up, along with PWATs It can turn tropical in a hurry as the fluidity of the atmosphere comes and goes like the tide.
  20. Some synoptic rain coming up this way, with mixed convection. The chance is there for a widespread 0.50" soaking on the 00z 3km NAM across the NW half of NE.
  21. 70/63. It’s warm and humid. Probably A/C time tonight. Max of 88F today at MVL. That’s a solid heater. Dews were in the 50s so it felt ok until this evening when the attempt to radiate has propped dews up.
  22. Biggest I’ve ever seen easily. 3-4 feet tall when on all fours and it’s stomach pretty much went to the ground. Paws were massive mits. I read the black bear in Eastern US can get up to 500-600lbs? Seemed like a lot but this guy was at least four bills. Sort of crazy though to have some 400+ pound wild animal wandering in your backyard. This one was on another level… no adolescent mischief. I was going in his direction and he wanted to pass me, so he just sat down while trying to figure out what to do, ha. Walked away along the field edge, but passing by. Felt like a zoo animal was loose in the backyard.
