    63/63 and dense fog. Lol at BTV being well mixed and 80F at 4am with the tropical nocturnal southerly jet developing in the valley.

    EURO tracks it right up the Hudson Valley... couldn’t follow the river any closer if it tried.

    75/73 here... gonna be a real mild night if we have already radiated to the dew point. Still mid-80s at 9pm in Burlington.

    Now that’s a rockslide... awesome shots, thanks for sharing.

    It’s a more liberal interpretation of what constitutes “western CT”. Seems to be pretty good consensus of at least a Hudson Valley track after 18z. Most seem to go over ALB or even west.

    Because that’s not where we want it. We need everyone to concentrate really hard to try and steer it.

    You are talking official station dews, he’s talking backyard Davis. Models print dews as they think the ASOS will report, not forested backyards. If they are showing 75-78F dews, Kev probably sees Iowa cornfield 82-84F on his Davis console, lol.

    Man I'd gladly take the May heat when it was like 93-95F but with low dews over this 88/69 stuff. Even the shade doesn't offer much relief in this air mass. This is the classic upper 80s and humid New England air mass. Not impressive highs but certainly more than high enough.

    88/68. Trying to mix out a little, lol.

    85/70... A/C time for sure. Thats about as gross a reading you’ll get from MVL but it’ll probably get worse. Hard to keep high dews from trying to mix out in a mountain valley air field up here, but with the dense fog this morning there’s plenty of low level moisture.

    Ahh, gotcha. I was picturing like downtown Southbridge or over by Big Y ha. But if you are at 715ft that makes more sense... it goes country real fast up on Lebanon Hill.
  12. powderfreak
    If Southbridge, MA is “the country” then my idea of what “country” is is wayyyy off.

    Now it’s gonna be hot or time for AC because the wife is hellbent on every door being closed. No free flowing air.

    It’s a black lab, no way could it handle a bear but it thinks it could take all animals that run from it. She’s fiercely loyal, and most wild animals looking for food will run from a howling dog, regardless of size. I’m not letting her out, that’s for sure.

    Bear just came back to our porch. Holy shit. I'm jacked up. Dog went nuts again and is scratching the door to go outside and chase after we closed it. Screen door open again, it must smell something coming from our kitchen. I saw it's face through the screen door for a split second before the dog went nuts and it took off back into the woods.

    That is by far the way to go. You can manage air and efficiency very easily using the sun to or against your benefit. Full sunshine in floor to ceiling windows in winter cold is gloriously warm... in summer it’s time to pull the shades during midday solar, especially if you aren’t home. No brainer if you aren’t home actually. Head to the summits during that time. Then in the evening as it cools off or whenever the temp outside goes below your AC temp, you open everything up.

    Yeah it’s rain cooled air too... but also climo of NNE to get more weak FROPAs and storms. What’s not climo is the over-the-top torches relative to normal that have been happening since the late-May.
  18. powderfreak
    Ha! I go with much colder settings... I like 65F in winter inside. Right now it’s mid-60s outside and three screen doors in different rooms plus windows ushering that air in.
  19. powderfreak
    What’s your set point in the house? My wife wants/is lucky to get mid-60s inside in the winter. My folks set their AC to 73F in Albany and CT.
  20. powderfreak
    66/64 here. Humid but cool enough where multiple screen doors offer plenty of ventilation to those 60s temps outside. It's summer, but wouldn't trigger A/C.
  21. powderfreak
    Might go far enough west to help out. At least that eastern side of the track will be high humidity regardless of rain.
  22. powderfreak
    But you don’t want rain either, ha.

    Just had a good size bear run in front of my car 15 minutes ago out by the mailboxes when turning onto my street... I’ve never seen bears around my place in 10 years as we are in a pretty active part of Stowe with decent traffic, restaurants, Rec Path pedestrians, dogs, etc. But this summer the things are everywhere. It has to be the same adult that was on my porch to the dumpster to running past diners on the Sushi Yoshi patio just now.
  24. powderfreak
    You’ve gotten hit with some big rainer storms this summer! I do think there’s something with the Winooski Valley and convergence. Storms and squalls like to split the gap.

    Now that’s a true heat and dews lover. You walk the walk if you don’t use A/C and love it. We know DIT likes the thought of it but can’t stand living in it.
