Yup, looking left side in the trees across the water is Lebanon Hill Road coming out of Southbridge, Mass.

It’s about where it usually is. Max depth is only like 20 feet. It used to get much lower until they fixed the outlet so it stops draining water at a higher level. It comes up to just a couple feet shy of the grass (maybe 6” depth) and in other areas comes right to the grass. I do think it’s higher than when we grew up, always could swim under the docks with head room.

Not bad in the hills of NE CT. The Mass border is literally on the other side of this pond/lake. It’s cool but great day to be outside, good fishing wx.

Classic. Looks like some good acreage got a soaking rainfall.

Yeah we went 78F to 62F real quick, dew down to 50F. My wife is going around shutting all windows and doors, whereas I’m like let it be cold inside! ASOS gusting over 30mph out of NW, drier/cooler air moving southeast rapidly.

Snow melts fastest around there too usually, or actually that’s the tank.

Was a great afternoon to take the dog for a walk. The green finally reached the summits... funny the growing season up above 3,000ft really only started in the last week, even the ground cover is still brown in many areas where the remaining snow piles just left recently. It'll wake up quickly. This view will be waist high wild flowers and grasses come August.

Front is through up here. 75/55, dews are dropping and sky clearing.

Gonna be a locally wet June for J.Spin. Gets the snow and gets the QPF. That was some crazy training of storms... over 2" of water, he'll be the green backyard while everyone else dries out.

What a localized water dump, J. That's pretty awesome.

What a quick dump of liquid on an otherwise warm and clear evening everywhere else. I also bet those storms continued into the NEK in narrow bands, but radar had strongest over your area. CoCoRAHS should tell the story in the morning with precip amounts.

That's a crazy hit. That Winooski River Valley seems to lead to localized convergence at times. It is just rotting over you, ha! Precip totals seem like the moisture split the gaps in a way.

Friend who works along the BTV airfield sent this photo of the training cells that fired up over the Spine from I-89 and just south. The mountains look so incredibly small compared to that vertical growth on the cloud, but also crazy to think that small of a terrain blip in the grand scale of things can trigger a storm.

Be curious how much rain you get. You are training pretty good now too. Been seeing constant lightning and rumbles of thunder now for a bit out the south facing sliders.

Yeah beers come into style and fade out pretty quick these days. If I had to choose, I'd probably go Sip of Sunshine over Heady Topper right now if those were the only two choices in a bar. I'm drinking an Otter Creek citra right now called Berner IPA... like I said, big fan of the flavor with those. To bring this back to weather, sitting outside listening to thunder from that storm just south of here in Waterbury. J.Spin's probably going to pick up a fast 0.5-1.0" of rain or something right under the core in his precip pocket, lol.

Yeah it’s time has sailed. I’m a big Citra hop fan, what % is that double double?

I feel bad stealing Kev’s heat too. Been a hot day at the N.VT and N.NH ASOS stations. BML with 4 straight hourly obs above 86F now. They’ve been a sneaky torch spot so far this warm season.

87/55...hot but air has that dry feel where there’s a good difference between sun and shade. BTV should hit 90F.

Yeah that and zero traffic during the hottest diurnal time of day makes a huge difference. It’s been incredibly hard to even poach as they’ve had manned security checkpoints to keep folks away from it. Its been a good case study of if a ski area made a shit ton of snow and then no one touched it for 2-3 months, how long would it last?

There was like a solid 7-day period in there where 4,000ft up here saw an average temperature higher than the same period at ORH. Normally given what we’ve seen so far would translate to like half a dozen 90+ days at BDL already. Certainly higher dews down there, no question. We’ve had more of the higher diurnal change heat. Like this morning was upper 40s to low 50s before an afternoon torch.

Late day pump with sunshine? So far I’ve seen: BTV... 88F BML... 87F MVL... 85F HIE... 84F MPV... 84F

Gotta feel for Kev. 85F up here. I feel like we’ve been 85+ more than all of 2016...I think that was the summer it failed to hit 90? 2017 was a torch with like a whole bunch of 90+, but I think it was 2016 when it was a lot of 70s and no 90F.

84/57 here at 12:15pm. Looks like 84/55 at BML. Can probably make a run to the upper 80s for the mountain valleys.

Going to be a hot one today, great pool day. Already 80F before 11am... NWS foreast is for 85-88F zone with full sun below 1,000ft. Way, way above normal sunny summer day.

I almost replied to his post saying "What would DIT tell you? Never plan on rain ever again."
