Go to Funspot today. They have those old school arcade games. 

A bunch of kids on a rainy June Saturday there. No thanks. Candlepin bowling…maybe. Thought about hitting up Moulton though…they had some decent hydrangeas the last time I was there.

:lol:  I’m joking. I stay as far away as possible. I actually try to go for a drive and hike if it’s not too bad. Nice little area off of Sandwich Notch road that has a waterfall. Or up the Kanc for a few hours.

Why is there such a dramatic difference in rain intensity between the GYX and BOX radars for this area?

It’s been like that for years. BOX is on PEDs.

Some of it may be brightbanding though. BOX is up into the glaciated level up here…10-11kft ASL for us. GYX is around 5-6kft.

Looks wet later this afternoon in SNE. Could have been worse - interesting how that low off the coast wants no business really interacting with the disturbance moving through from the west. Just keeps moving northeast…

Started here about 30 mins ago. Looks very meh . Light showers on and off thru 5:00 then moves east . Enough to ruin the afternoon and breed the great mosquito outbreak of 25’

After spending 7-8 hours standing in 50F Noreaster rain last weekend at a huge lacrosse tournament here, let's do it again this morning for another big event. Only 4 hours this time :lol:. It's comical at this point.

There is no doubt that Vermont, the North County, and northern New Hampshire have seen their fair share of rain and wet weekends lately. Burlington International Airport, where records are kept for the state, has recorded measurable precipitation every weekend since March 22 and 23, but even that weekend had snow flurries.

To find the last completely dry weekend at Burlington International, you have to go all the way back to the weekend of December 14 and 15, 2024, nearly 25 weeks ago.

Many of you have asked us if this nearly six month long stretch of wet weekends is a record-breaker. Meteorologist Peter Kvietkauskas and the First Alert Weather team combed through several thousand days worth of data dating back all the way to 1884 to find out. While we are getting close, we haven’t broken a record yet. There was a longer stretch between 1934 and 1935.

Every time I take the dog out I get eaten alive. Going to have to get some kind of lotion.

Hordes of mosquitos here, but one of the lightest black fly seasons we've had.  (At least here.  Makes me wonder if it was another 1996.  On Friday June 7 I spent 5 hours at Oquossuc (Rangeley) Bald Mountain helping scope out a new snowsled trail and saw maybe 10 black flies.  The next Monday our men's wilderness retreat reached Portage Lake about noon, and it seemed there were 10 of them per cubic inch.  At Deboullie (25 miles SW from Fort Kent) where we camped, Ben's 100 lasted barely an hour.  I'd never seen flies so thick before, and haven't since.  Tuesday it was 91 at Fort Kent and blazing; black flies usually retreat to the cool woods when it's much over 80, but not that year.  Even on Deboullie Pond a hundred yards from shore, they were thick.  Maybe insufficient airspace over the land?  Only place to hide (other than a steam bath inside a tent) was NW from the pond in hollows amid the spruce forest/boulder garden which still held ice and snow.)

And it's like almost 10 dBZ off too. 

I know our beam blockage does through some things off above the freezing level, but Z shouldn't be one of them.

I notice it a lot in winter when there’s a band at 30dBZ over S NH on GYX and BOX has it pushing 35-40. With that said, GYX looks a little light compared to ENX and CBW too right now, but it’s tough to make on a whim comparisons. You would know better than me.
