Just awful. It blows that our summers have turned into rain, smoke, rain, smoke. 

Days and days of steamy pavement, smoke, and moist plumbers cracks..ya love to see it!

smoke adds a nice hazy summer vibe/tone to the sky, we take.

AQI clown map. Let’s pump those numbers up.

 

It’s been pretty high here on my sensor as well.

[powderfreak]

It was a smoky blue tint hazy day.  There were some clouds around the mountain, but the view was smoggy.  The Mansfield ridgeline is 2 miles long from above where I'm standing to the high spot across there, and even that view was hazy.  The 5-6 mile visibility seemed about right.

Eventually the clouds filled in.

I'm sure the girls must have been excited. BC is a good neighbor. Used to do a lot for my travel and AAU teams. Did you play on the field behind Alumni near the reservoir ? Do you usually play at Cold springs Park? Played many a game there...

BC built a new softball/baseball complex behind the Seminary on Lake St a few years ago.  Really nice fields too as they just hosted the ACC Softball championship.  The softball program isn't that great, but they try hard and it's a fun watch for an impressionable 10u player.

We're supposed to play at Cold Spring Sunday, but that field takes a while to dry out, so we'll see.

Oh yeah back on topic.  64* with clear skies and it's less humid out.  Didn't seem smoky around the moon, but we'll see tomorrow?

Might be able to see the base of the mountains, with tops in the clouds.  Hope the wx at PEI is better.

 

This is what we saw.

1.54” today but we need it.

Yikes. We drove from BGR TO PQI and didn’t see anything other than sprinkles. I don’t think it rained here at all after we arrived around 12:30.

Gondor calls for aid..shall we answer the call? Seriously, all smoke and memes aside, those are simply incredible shots. Thank you for sharing!

Yeah that place is built on a swamp. I used to hate retrieving foul balls. Whole bunch of funk on the left side.

.90” from yesterday’s rain, lawn and fertilizer happy!  Let’s see what we get out of Tuesday.

Just saw a squirrel in the yard that had no tail. Looked like it was bitten off . Just a little stump. wtf

Good morning DIT. Thank you for incentivizing my last few brain cells to charge and search. (Sadly without beer.)
stay well. As always …..

I'm never going to Florida in June again. Jesus Christ...

[HIPPYVALLEY]

Is it just high thin clouds or are we smoky in western mass today?

[powderfreak]

73/51

Back in the sweet spot for temps/dews.

I usually go in July every year.. It actually doesn't bother me when I'm there. but hate when dews get 70 plus at Home.. I guess its a different vibe or I'm on vacation and don't care 

[CoastalWx]

Get storms at least down there too. Yeah I’ve been there several times in the summer and it doesn’t bother me too much.

It's too hot the sun is too strong here even in January. Dews creep up to 77 or so at night here by Tampa Bay. Idk, I don't get the appeal of living here. It's fine to visit in winter or late fall early spring but other than that? No thanks.

[CoastalWx]

Very confused

my brother lives in Lakeland.. I would hate it lol ill visit anytime of year though 

[eekuasepinniW]

In case the smoke wasn't thick enough by itself, the white pines decided this was the day to unleash the pollen clouds.  Just ridiculous looking outside.

Smoky/hazy from Sugarloaf

I'm in southeast St. Petersburg right on the bay. You have ass crack sweat just trying to walk at night. I've never longed for a desert climate (so long as it's not far south) as much as I have the last 10 days.

maybe I just enjoy it because I mostly stay in Orlando and visit parks.  BTW today is perfect up here I wish this would last the rest of the Summer.. its so comfortable out

[dendrite]

Interior FL is a hellhole. Gulf Coast Tampa-south is amazing. You need some air movement with the continuous 75-80+ dews and mins.

I can’t imagine living there and not being near the water.  Strong hell no to interior Florida.

Yeah that's cool visiting in winter like I said. Idk about doing the parks in July. That sounds rough...I haven't been to the parks since I was kid in the early 2000s. Nice, looking forward to more comfortable weather when I get home Tuesday.

Something had it by the tail and he got away.
