    Hoping we can pull off a week of highs in the single digits with no snow on the ground. Really get that pond ice established!

    Fans in open windows tonight. Nice to take a break from the AC for a night. I love warm summer nights, just don't really care for AC.

    Correct. Praying Mantis are tick killing ninjas but they also will prey on beneficial native insects when the pest insects are mostly devoured. You can buy their egg cases on-line.

    69/64 finally shed those tropical DP's the last hour or so.

    Nice night! Great for yard beers on draught. The Allman Brothers are all time favorites of mine. Nobody but you and I know what "rare GB" copy means. Is that mono?

    My dad was the first person in MA to get Ehrlichiosis. Same deal, soembody from CDC flew up from Atlanta to interview him.

    Confirmed to be on Cape Cod and possibly the South Shore. Not enough information to confirm for other parts of the state. The Lonestar ticks are pretty discernible from deer ticks and dog ticks. Obviously, it becomes a more tenuous situation if a nymph bites you because you might never see or feel it.

    Days over 90° should probably be double what they are in Greenfield this summer but it’s just always cloudy now.

    Greenhead and "horsefly" bites hurt like a MF though!

    That's their jam. W MA has had a lot of precipitation at the wrong times the past few years but our dry periods have timed well with regard to stinging/biting insects. This year there are more mean pests than the past few but my Vermont friends have been chirping loudly about them the past few weeks.

    Except for some localized flash flooding two summers ago, Franklin County has gotten screwed with precipitation summer and winter. Even that stretch of a dozen rainy weekends in a row it was just crappy weather without a lot of precipitation..
  12. HIPPYVALLEY
    It’s definitely accurate for most of W MA. Have not really had good rain for a few weeks.

    Nice afternoon in Falmouth,
  14. HIPPYVALLEY
    Took the midnight NAM going anywhere?
  15. HIPPYVALLEY
    Shower earlier but just cloudy in Falmouth now.
  16. HIPPYVALLEY
    I'm in Falmouth so hoping the axis of heavy precip is from central CT through Boston tomorrow morning. Comfy night here.

    I like where I live and I'm glad most people don't live here.
  18. HIPPYVALLEY
    I mean, maybe for Long Island.

    Heh’ soil starting to get that powdery feel here. Let’s Stein the rest of the week and bye-bye mosquitoes and gnats etc. maybe I picked a good year to forgo doing a vegetable garden?

    I’m not sure MPM ever broke 90° when he was at his old location out in Shelburne. I would consider moving to that area more for the winter than the summer breeze, but not many houses and certainly nothing affordable for us, that I would ever live in.

    I’ve only had one heat wave so far. Several close calls, but we get stuck in the upper 80s because of cloud cover.
  22. HIPPYVALLEY
    High of 87° so far in Greenfield. I’m sure we would’ve broken 90 but it’s always mostly cloudy now.
  23. HIPPYVALLEY
    Lawns around here are actually starting to brown out a bit. Very little rain so far in July.
  24. HIPPYVALLEY
    It’s been a warm but overcast stretch here in the upper Valley the past few weeks.
  25. HIPPYVALLEY
    78/74 that’s a nice summer evening.
