  1. It’s the novelty and party atmosphere. Definitely not for everyone. I heard this weekend was bonkers, the lift line looked pretty solid on Sunday. Selling beers and burgers right off the snow, and people had some real elaborate tailgating going on. They’ll be open with some walking required next weekend too. There’s certainly a big difference between folks who show up for that vs casual skiers, ha. Same in October for 500 feet of chopped ice cubes.
  2. As we draw it up. Lush, green, Chamber of Commerce views and vibes on Memorial Day weekend. Couldn’t be more stoked on the weather the past couple days. Early warm season, when fresh green leaf-out finally reaches the upper elevations. Late spring transitioning to early summer type vegetation. That's Jay Peak and Big Jay in the center of the horizon.
  3. Low 80s, dews in the 50s. Hot enough for swimming, but nice enough to do literally any other outdoor activity. How you draw it up.
  4. Low 0f 48F, now up to 73F. Last bit of natural snow on it's way out at the Mansfield Stake. Time to shut 'er down.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Got brutally cold in the 50s for a while, we’ve recovered back to 65F as the sun has come back out.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Not if you water religiously and really focus on the area around the Davis station.
  12. 72/45 Full Sunshine. Top 10 Chamber weather.
  13. One can only imagine the dire tweets that would be firing if that happened again.
  14. 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.
  15. Did you hit 90F in the past heater? Genuinely curious the max there. My folks said it was hot.
  16. Really nice day. Mid-60s, full sunshine. Dews in 30s. Nice to mix these in with the heaters.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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 .
