TheClimateChanger Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 17 hours ago, LibertyBell said: Even drier than the 1965-66 period Chris?? I think looking at precipitation only is insufficient to determine dryness without also considering the impact of elevated temperatures on the hydrological cycle. Ground and surface waters may tell a different story. We can see for instance Lake Champlain is teetering on the edge of its all-time record low level. We can see from this September 4th article, the all-time low level is 92.4' set in 1908. Source: Lake Champlain approaching record low levels | WAMC We can see in recent days, the lake has dropped to within about 7" of that record, although it has recovered a bit today in response to recent rains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if it was in the 60s in July people would whine. So why should I have to deal with 80s in October? 80s isn't hot though (especially with low humidity) In my experience we get our first 80s by April and our first 90s by June. Our last 90s are normally in early September and our last 80s are normally in mid or late September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time both cities had at least four consecutive 80° or above highs in October was way back in 1990. whats the latest that either or both had 4 consecutive 80 degree highs Don? I noticed the records for the date were from 1944 and 1949, both years had endless summers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyBell Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 4 hours ago, Picard said: 0.56" overnight into this morning, which is far more than expected based on most of these falling apart or missing the area. I did catch the squall line around 5:30 AM with wind and a heavy downpour. Neat to see northeast movement of the overall system, and southeast movement of the squall line on the same radar loops. it's like seeing two layers of clouds moving in two different directions lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it’s been dry but everything balances out. . Water withdrawals have essentially zero impact on Lake Champlain's level. It's a minute fraction of the total volume, and most of it is treated and redeposited into the lake system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
