HIPPYVALLEY

We get that all the time around here. They come up from Westover AFB and run maneuvers over the Hilltowns. Loud.

The farms around here would kill for .20” over 30 hours.

January 2005 was the Boston metro special. I was in Cambridge and it’s the only time I’ve experienced 30”+

I think 78 is the only storm you and I have in common as an all timer. For me it’s Feb 78, April Fools 97, Boston Blizzard 2005, W MA 2013, W MA 2011

No thanks, a lot of strange goings on in his area... https://northernstar-online.com/curse-of-glastenbury-mountain/

This is awesome, the rivers are too low to find any good swimming spots and a lot of the lakes around here now have bacteria warnings.

Well, if it’s summer track record is anything like it’s winter track record, enjoy the .01” of sprinkles you get.

We tried and tried, dry beget dry.

As we thought.

Oh good, just like winter, west of the river screw job.

The afternoon turned into perfect beach weather. North wind keeps the Falmouth side of Buzzards Bay calm and inviting.

Go check out the Franklin county fair in Greenfield second weekend of September. classic county fair with lots of agricultural stuff and a demolition derby!

Nothing to do now but sit back and wait for the shunt East.

Yes, Santa is sure to bring them for all of SNE to enjoy!

I know a lot of professional farmers in western mass and they are not in great shape. Worst dry spell most of them have ever seen.

Great day, got in some bay time and some beach time. What a comfort difference from the past two weeks.

Yeah, it’s given me glacial amounts of snow over the years. Let’s discuss on Sunday if the models are still showing big rains.

The mosquitoes will be happy!

I think Cape is only place getting rain today.

I got this message from the town of Greenfield today: In accordance with Commonwealth of Massachusetts guidelines, the City is banning all nonessential outdoor watering and water use, effective immediately. The outright ban replaces odd/even day and time-of-day restrictions implemented on July 18. This follows Tuesday’s “Level 3 Critical Drought” declaration for the Connecticut River Valley by the Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs. Residents and businesses are strongly encouraged to cease the installation of new sod, seeding and landscaping; washing of hard surfaces, such as patios, driveways and siding; and continue to follow the bans on non-commercial car washing and filling or “topping off” of swimming pools. “Unfortunately, one rain event is not going to get us out of this situation and we must tighten our mandatory water-use restrictions,” said Department of Public Works Director Marlo Warner. “We’ve been politely reminding people about restrictions to this point, but given the circumstances, warnings and fines are the next step.”

Gorgeous night in Falmouth, comfortable and dry. Buzzards Bay is running 70-72F so great evening swimming.

Or the therapists couch.

64° and cloudy in Falmouth so that feels nice.

Got down to Falmouth at 9pm and lots of deep puddles and flooding in low areas. My niece sad it absolutely poured for over an hour.

It will be hot but not as impressive as this stretch.
