Nice catch.  Weird how the nowdata apparently reports it from the previous day.  

It’s weird how they do it with the COOPs. The daily data gets entered in for the day at the time it’s reported…so 12z. So all of those COOP highs temps from the hot day on 6/24 get listed as occurring on 6/25. I know they want consistency, but I hate it.

What a boring decade.

Besides the south shore blizzard, what memorable storms?   mild winters, heat and drought have been headlines.

nothing historic for hill /lower mountain towns, and of course populations didn't see much.

I had around 40? in the 2015 blizzard, which was drifted  8' against my front door of house.    It was almost impossible to measure properly beyond the 30" range but L.E. was around 3.6" iirc

Yeah I’m torn between viewing and trolling versus giving him the views and clicks. It’s a strange timeline that we live in.

Ordered some of this today. It gets good reviews. If it works I'll let folks know. I have three nests I have to kill.

Yes! They’re coming. Show it love. 

They usually cause an infestation for a couple of years and then their numbers wane.

Mother Nature does it for him.

Guy disappears in summer, but drops his draws every 6 hours in winter to tell us the H2O content of his sample. Make me wonder if he keeps his family in some sort of underground dwelling.

It’s a waste of time killing them. They’re here now. It’s like the gypsies. I have to laugh at the public service announcements they’re putting out south of here to smash them all. The predatory insects and birds will realize they’re lunch soon.

Like all the insects and birds that eat the spongy moths before they do any damage?

Also be aware, I have filed a complaint with our local moderator for your use of "gypsies".

Never mind. That's you..
