Not gonna happen. They tried DST in the winter during the mid 70s and for this reason it was a disaster. I was in hs that year. And you are correct it was a disaster. Rainy days were the worst because it would stay at least somewhat dark well into the morning. Teachers took to pulling down all of the shades in classrooms to brighten them. I hope there is never a repeat of year long DST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Sign of the season, I really like the look of the PV anomaly that swings across the Northeast late this week. Strong, pivoting to negatively tilted, all guidance coming around to the idea of a rapidly organizing low. Too late to do much across the area, but the NAM flirts with a flash to snow in the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Various model runs have tried to flash to a heavy wet snow in either the Greens or Whites as that deepens and tries to go negative in Maine.

Hazey Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I’m still liking the 10-13th timeframe for potential. I see no reason to deviate from my thinking so far. I sniff some opportunities for a wintery appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 1 small hemlock on my property, but there are quite a few of them in the area, so that may indeed be the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmanmitch Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 7 hours ago, tamarack said: Hemlock has a hard time getting above 2,000' in NNE. Fir has lots of issues, and I think bark beetles are secondary pests on fir, attacking trees already weakened by other factors. That softwood stand in Mitch's yard looks crowded, with many trees probably with narrow crowns, thus slow growing and vulnerable. ((Added note: On white spruce, bark beetles can attack perfectly healthy trees, as is currently happening on the most NW-ly large tract that we manage.) Hemlock is sparse at my elevation, but it does exist. I have a single small one in my spruce/fir stand. There are many more below 2K. There are lots of narrow crown firs around, and my long term goal is to thin out my woods so I can get an understory and have healthier trees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWS understandings the CT power grid issues? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
