Brian5671 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 5am? Here they start going after 4am...it's amazing because you start to see a glimmer of light and sure enough they start going. Birds must like dawn because they make the most noise then but then seem to quiet down after the sun gets up. I'll echo the thoughts about the dry days and cool nights. I have a window fan that cools off the house quickly and it's nice to have the cool morning air. 30s yesterday and 40s this morning. Could use some rain though.... We have a "whole house" fan...it yanks the hot air out through the attic and pulls in the cool air through the open windows...run it for 30 minutes and it does the trick. If it's nasty out, then the Central air goes on, but we use that 30-40 days a summer depending on the summer, less like last summer, nonstop for torches like '10-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not totally familiar with the Ecosystem here, but all I hear is dead silence in the morning (4-6am) with the window open, no birds or anything, I don't really get it. Its kind of eerie actually. I have found it pretty strange compared to the cacophony of sounds from my house in PA starting at 4-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Check this out! time sensitive, but if you loop this, fascinating depiction/evidence of BD front E/SE of Cape Cod. You can bet this extends N along that axis, too... Notice that thing punching west like that... http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/index.php?load=vis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Love waking to the sounds of nature, smelling freshly sprouted flowers and trees with the cool breeze. The morning light at this time of year is pretty cool, sort of dim yet bright enough to reflect fall like colors off the newly budded and tiny leaves. Still not full leaf out as the Oaks have finally woken up a little but the Cottonwoods and Tulips are just starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 2007 was a nicer spring than this, at least here...once we got rid of the Patriots Day storm and things broke around 4/20. But it's definitely been a nicer May so far than most years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Not a drop this month, with temps avg 73/36 thru yesterday. Too good to last, methinks. Last couple of months beginning with a week-plus of dry wx to (5/13 and 6/09) turned ugly quickly and persistently. 2009 descended into stratiform-rain torture, with the subsequent 8 weeks dropping 1.5 feet of rain without ever having two consecutive dry days. May 2013 only brought a 17-of-18 day rainy spell. I'm certainly enjoying the COC wx while it's here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
