77/45 Puffy Cu. Top 10.

Had ~0.40" today, not a washout but the garden has been well fed. I'm 4.5+ inches on the month. It's been higher up north of here. The water has come at a great time for spring growth this month.

Had about the same this afternoon in the Stratus. Garden has been well fed. I think I'm 4.5+ inches on the month. It's been even higher up north of here. Car said 52F arriving home. East and west slopes of the Spine is low to mid 50s. It feels fallish.

Got brutally cold in the 50s for a while, we’ve recovered back to 65F as the sun has come back out.

Nothing like 50s and rain at 1pm on Memorial Day weekend Saturday. Be glad you aren’t here. Local stations are 0.30-0.50” water so far. Windows and doors slammed shut.

Warm season in VT. Superstar glacier is down to the multi-colored grayscale (the base layer of the snowpack) in spots, but this is still 3-10 feet deep.

Nice warm day to ski.

Another Top 10’er. Mid-70s, low dews, feels warm and nice outside. Southerly flow should keep it from cooling off to quickly this evening. Perfect for late-May.

Not if you water religiously and really focus on the area around the Davis station.

72/45 Full Sunshine. Top 10 Chamber weather.

One can only imagine the dire tweets that would be firing if that happened again.

I do too. I love their demeanor and behaviors. They have no enemies but also do not want any. They just want to exist. Curious animals.

Did you hit 90F in the past heater? Genuinely curious the max there. My folks said it was hot.

Really nice day. Mid-60s, full sunshine. Dews in 30s. Nice to mix these in with the heaters.

36F for the low. Crisp.

Can already envision someone thinking the weekend is fantastic if it’s showery at 69/68 solely because the dew is upper 60s… temp and weather be damned.

56/54 locally, 57/52 at MVL. The sliding doors are getting shut. Heat might come one to be honest. Bonehead move to leave it all wide open after the front.

For sure. It’s mind blowing this time of year could snow or be 90F… not likely to snow, but the range of historical obs is probably close to the most impressive of any time of year.

I thought it was May 18, 2002. Had like 2.5” in Albany at Hudson River elevation. Went up to Thatcher Park in west Albany County and it was plowable 6” above 1,000ft. That is one of the few memorable events my mind remembers like Will .

What a change from a couple hours ago. Dew point at 5pm was 70F, and now 55F. Big time “real feel” change. Honestly thinking about it, I can’t think of a bigger 15 degree difference in either temp or dew point that can be so noticeable as 70F to 55F dews. I guess anything near freezing if it changes rain to snow, but as far as a real feel change, that dew difference is huge.

Watching storms move up the valley. Getting some healthy winds up here but staying dry. Strong southerly flow, almost SE flow.

We had some good nocturnal thunderstorms last night. Love waking up to Thunder and sound of pouring rain on the more summer-like nights.

Driving home there’s some pockets of straight line wind damage seen from the interstate on French Hill… right on the “o” in Williston. That velocity max went right over that area and there was a large tree (looked rotted though) and debris in the breakdown lane but then in the median there were several healthy looking trees uprooted. All facing ENE in direction. Fresh branches broken off several other trees as well. Must’ve had a decent little downdraft move across the interstate from WSW to ENE. Found 0.33” in the Stratus at home… at least we don’t have to water the garden tonight. Hasn’t been much watering needed these days.

1.2 degree… it was 2,000ft elevation there. I mostly use 1.2-2.5… first one for west slopes and then second for east side. It’s definitely off the deck.
