I put it down too heavy.  Had the spreader on the wrong setting.  Oh well.  Matches the rest of my lawn.  I try but I suck at it

That’s how radar looks currently but maybe the line develops. That’s a beast of a cell moving to our SW. congrats Meriden

Scooter’s fault if your lawn gets ruined. He guaranteed you rain.

It’s rare for storms blow up at the river, but it does happen.

Happened last month, only because we had straw laying, lol!

I’ve seen years where the “professional lawn companies “ put it down on lawns this time of year with the high , hot sun angle and whole lawns are completely burned . And not just temporary.. like it kills the grass to the roots .

Went to New Britain. Got a nice view from walnut Hill Park. Shelf incoming soon

Lightening to the north, lightning to the south.

Sprinkles overhead.

Par for the course.

Just straw.

Next week looks good enough for some hay.

[Damage In Tolland]

At least Mitch is getting crushed in VT. The downed trees will cover up limbs and body parts that surfaced after the snow melted.

Can hear boomers in the distance, but radar looks lame.

No hay cut here, so if we miss out on any significant rain, it’s all on you!

Yeah it looks bleak as of now. Hoping something congeals but already having nervous stomach diarrhea

Storm riding the CT/MA border may slip N towards Agawam.  Could be a hair too S here.

I put it down in early May (maybe late April)    Not much I can do at this point but hope it recovers someday.  Not losing sleep over it.  At some point I will have to order truckloads of soil and start over.   Not this year.

Start dragging out the sprinklers before it gets dark.

Looks pretty sunny tomorrow.
