Well it does take a little bit of number fudging to try and justify that he averages as much snow as Ray. He has to make up that 3" per year deficit somehow.

Any type of physical activity and your drawers are instantly soaked i don't know...a 64/65 dew is only rough, imo, the first time you deal with it in a summer season. once you've had that first wave of several days at 68-72F type stuff and it settles back to the low to mid 60s it's kinda meh.

HoarfrostHubb Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 79.1F/61F Not too bad... wish it was cold (I always do) but this is not overly humid. Yesterday was much nicer, Tuesday was worse How is 66F upper 60s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we can get a string of days like this...around 80-82 and full sun... once Late June/July comes along and I can actually enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 LOL..with dews in the upper 60's? Some people have the ability to function comfortably under a wide array of conditions. Others, that live their lives like veal, need constant climate control. is it 80 degrees there? looks like it's close. 76 was the high @ 2k, and 78 here. It's been very breezy and that's made the conditions fantastic for keeping the Black flies at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 76 was the high @ 2k, and 78 here. It's been very breezy and that's made the conditions fantastic for keeping the Black flies at bay. Just got off the mountain... still snow up there. Rather continuous snow cover starts in the woods around 3,500ft... but it is widely variable due to melt patterns this time of year. Still, I was impressed at how the temperature dropped about 15 degrees once you hit the snow line. Sort of like that feeling when you open the freezer door in mid-July and get blasted with cold air. Very, very refreshing. First time I've ever wandered through snow while being in a Tornado Watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
