To be honest, if I had to put window units in, I’m probably letting this stretch ride with 60s/40s back in the forecast right after.

I think having every window blocked up for the foreseeable future every day its in the 60s might annoy me more than a couple nights without A/C.

But I have a deep disdain for window units.  Now just flip the remote to the snowflake icon for a couple days.

Yeah. Heat pumps for the win. Just press that snowflake and enjoy the cold. Sounds like someone has some Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps?

Ha, raises hand.

I feel like those are pretty universal though on electronic displays… sun or flame and snowflake.

Yeah I lived in a similar spot a few years ago...not quite as high but 1k, it'd be like 88 at MHT and 81 at home 

I feel like SNE has some of the most drastic low level lapse rates between like 200ft and 1,000ft elevations.  We get it in NNE a bit but not like down there.  

It has to be going from like peak urban heat islands to forests and fields, mixed with the elevation changes.

Definitely true. There’s typically a 5-8 degree difference in highs between here and HFD/ BDL

Yeah even from Southbridge/Sturbridge to Woodstock… elevation is only like 250ft to 750ft (but urban to cornfields/forests) and it’ll go from 90F to 83F.  Lebanon Hill Road drops like a degree every quarter mile, ha.
