It's been tropical, with the storms and rounds of downpours, mixed along with true summer real feel. A/C running the past couple days. Windows have not been open.

Sutton on GoogleMaps looks to be located between say 400m and 900m (really might be 850m) in elevation. That equates to 1,300ft to 2,900ft in elevation. That's a significantly lower elevation for a ski area. A 2,500ft snow measurement probably describes a good bit of it to be honest. There is a non-noticeable amount of snowfall possible on average between that and above that. All else aside.

Dude this Field of Dreams game is awesome. Watching the hitters launch home runs into the cornfield. Kids running after the balls in the rows of corn. Plenty of offense so far. MLB won with this. Hopefully they put on the Sandlot next time. Build an empty pen with a dog chained up, home run means you let one kid at a time past the fence to try and get the ball. Joe Buck having the time of his life.

Camera jealous, ha.

You get any velo scans as it went past your house? Was it a gust front? Inflow?

The 7 acorns on the driveway deserve the damage moniker.

Just get home here at 4pm and it’s 87/70. Feels all of that too. We seem to have a hard time getting to 90F with dews 70+… the 90-92s seem to be 62-64F type dew days up here. Anyway, nice little breeze rolling in, and what’s that smell? Manure. Fantastic. It’s hot and steamy outside and some farmer upwind somewhere must’ve decided today was the day. No better day of course. So the quintessential Vermont village smells like hot cow shit right now. I cannot fathom a worse day to spread or move or pump manure than today. Just all of the summer feels at once. Tourists get the best of VT today.

Yeah it feels like all that too. MVL here is 84/72 and 81F and very humid feels right in the base area. I was up top briefly a little while ago and even above 3500ft it doesn’t feel “refreshing.” More like a very humid hair dryer.

They are just gummy bears… that make you think you are a gummy bear. Ginxy’s sounds like the place to be. I’ll bring some wings. Its too hot today.

If I was a lurking NWS MET, student, or new poster this thread would definitely make me want to add to the AMWX discussion. Embarrassing.

Well it should’ve been in every sub-forum or not at all. The problem with discussions like that where people have such incredibly strong opinions is it degrades rapidly with the more people who join. A small group, even of different viewpoints, can reach an understanding of how to converse about it in an adult manner like you would sitting on a back porch with some friends. Add in another couple dozen strangers who haven’t read the room or the customs of that conversation and you can no longer politely discuss that topic like adults. And that’s what happens and it’s gone.

Yup.

You can but this is a weather forum. It’s not like anyone comes here to add any substance to a weather topic in here. It’s likely because it is a fairly political topic… people come out of the woodwork to discuss those topics. Come in and add some weather substance from time to time… that’s what the forum is for.

I learned two things this summer. Deer flies like the color blue. And COVID attracts deer flies like blue buckets. Half the posters never stepped into the NE forum before.

As the Notorious DIT said, “It’s over. Time to move on.” Like I’ve said, humans love drama. Any and all of it.

Same here this morning.

Some might say “LFG!” .

Yeah I can’t wait. What a great story line for MLB. Plowed a corn field to make a baseball diamond just like Kevin Costner. If you are a player how could you not be excited for that.

Torrential rain and thunder from the SW once again. Third downpour today. This atmosphere can flush some water, tropical rainfall, monster raindrops.

Not often you give up 7 in the 9th and still win by 12. 20-1 would’ve been cooler though lol.

This is insane lol. Should’ve gone with a position player at 20-1. They would’ve blown this bad if they didn’t score 3 touchdowns with a missed extra point.

Thank god they put up 20 runs because the Rays have put up 6 so far in the 9th, ha!

20-1 now. Boy they needed this.

0.10” this evening and 0.30” on the day… this stuff just continues to pump the low level moisture. So humid outside this evening after the brief downpour. MVL hit 75F dew after the rain shower, I bet if you had a PWS in the forest near the grass you might have gotten near 80F.

14-0 lead might be enough of a lead for him to give up a couple bombs.
