What year was that ridiculous May heat… was that 2020 or 2021?

Like 95F at SLK at 1,600ft.

May 22, 1977.  The day I chose to add 6" fiberglass insulation to the attic of our first house in Fort Kent.  Fortunately, it was a small house - 2-story 18x20 - and I was done by 11 AM.  Temp was probably 120+ up there by then.  CAR temps 22-24 were 96, 95, 94 and the low on the 23rd was 69; that 82° is just 0.5° below their hottest mean.

Looks like 65 mph type stuff. Wish that could happen here . Shed looks salvageable?

2-3' on the GFS end of the week into Saturday. Deformation and ratios TBD.

CT should be ok by Sat late morning but AEMATT may have a wettie

1.2” today, 3” MTD

.71 so far. Radar looks anemic for now We’ll see how the 3-6” forecasts here some had and flood watches work out . Time will tell

Perfect track Fri/Sat for SNE.

I don’t want to hear any bitching come winter now.

Biggest heat this summer will mostly be well west of New England.

Luckily, the shed structurally came through pretty well. Just need to add a some roofing once I figure out how to remove our fallen friend.

Even 1:1 ratios would be great
