NNE going to steal the rain tonight?

This is just leftover snow. You can hike all around and go wherever you want. The Toll Road was open but that’s it. There are no services at a closed ski area on leased state land. You can go wander around but if something happens you need to call 911, not the ski area. It’s considered backcountry. These are just folks who saw snow and were drawn to it.

Saw a couple families sledding today. Lugged the light plastic sleds up and were taking turns going sledding down the terrain park piles. Others just sliding around on their shoes. The remaining snow was an attraction for the holiday weekend.

That’ll do it for the natural snow season on Mansfield. The stake is now clear of snow for 360 degrees around the immediate tree it’s on. It’s still patchy up there in the E/NE facing high ground but getting fewer and further between them.

High clouds moved in, but nice shorts a T-shirt weather to the summit.

I know, quite the flip possible. Its pretty nice here now. 66/37

Low of 34F. Already 61F and nice out.

42F at 10pm… its just an overnight and early morning chill, then moderates rapidly in the AM… but it does impact heating/cooling usage. 67F high, 42F now. The temperature is always moving around here.

You think 1,000ft where his point and click is probably from sees 10 days of 75-85? I’m guessing 1,000ft is 67-79F starting Monday like that forecast. Doesn't seem unreasonable.

Yeah I hear ya, and we post about it because it’s the min temp… but it’s also such a small part of the day its impact is very minimal except for sleeping and maybe to the vegetation.

Ha I don’t think so, it’s just a different climate. We recover like 8-10F per hour rapidly… so comparing here vs OXC/Waterbury, CT 6am… 29F vs 48F By 9:15am… 54F vs 54F Very quickly normalizing after sun-up.

Ha, you guys make it sound like it’s 30s up north while it’s 70s down south. We had a hard freeze and are now the same temp as Waterbury, CT. We go up and down fast.

We are getting there. Ebb and flow.

We’ll probably be close to your temps in a couple hours, ha. Like the overnight never happened.

30F
