Hey! Great summer - but a tad cooler than I’d have liked. No biggie, still awesome. I only have a few years of data but it’s been somewhere between August 20 and Sep 20 so average is probably somewhere right around the first week of September. Unfortunately all you need is a clear calm night and boom, plants are toast even if the airmass is not that cold. Coming up fast!

39 this morning for the second time this August

39 this morning, so it seems pretty safe to say that this year we'll have had 30s every month of the year. Go 2021!

37.8F to start the day today. 30s in July - check

Just shoot me lol. Things haven't even really started growing this year!

Exactly! NH is actually pretty good on that front, especially compared to Mass. The only time you are liable is really if there is an issue of negligence. Otherwise... S%it happens. But that doesn't bar anyone from suing you for the stupidest thing so you want to be prepared! And in the end it's all in the hands of the insurance company.

Is there a place to see expired warnings? We have a guest who wants to sue us because he went outside in the middle of a severe thunderstorm warning and something fell on him. People are so dumb.

Pouring here. I miss the "drought" lol

Totally agree from the tourism perspective. 6” on the ground with flakes in the air and snow covered trees feels a lot better to most tourists than 12” of icy crust

Not even a tenth of an inch here. Flood worries cancelled

Speaking of which, left Lincoln with broken clouds, hot home with a drizzly misery mist. went up the cog yesterday though, great day for it.

Funny. My perception is quite the opposite. There seems to be a lot of days when it’s gratuitously overcast compared to other areas - even aside from the persistent winter upslope days. So many times leaving here socked in clouds just to arrive south of the notch in bright sunshine! I’ve also noticed that some plants that are typically shade plants (hostas for example) thrive in full sun here (not sure if that’s related to cloudiness or just general weather). Still love it… but we do get lots of cloudy days in my experience.

Some crazy downpours and hail here.

We had a single shower today that dropped 1/10" in maybe 2 minutes. It was like a bucket of water just came down from the sky. Soupy but tolerable (69/62). Not that it makes a difference, my house is always the same exact temperature lol. Can't imagine not having AC.

For some weird reason it's down to 75 here when it's still 80-81 all around us, and it's not radiational cooling since it's quite windy

35.2 overnight

44.8 this morning. Down to 43.2 now. Seems like the 30s are likely. Just no frost please!

In the meantime as we talk about the incoming heat, down to 48 already at 930pm. Gonna be a chilly night.

Spent the week in St Maarten. Talk about great weather for outdoor activities lol! The temperature is pretty much perfect.

36F, off to St Maarten!

86/59 here but it’s pretty heavenly with the breeze

That makes sense. That’s the pattern that I’ve observed here. Warmer but drier. Which really bakes my garden lol. Then once the dry heat has taken its toll it hits it with frost. I’m starting to see why so few plants grow well in this zone.

Interesting hearing you say that. Do radiators tend to heat up more? It has struck me in the past that during the daytime we can reach some pretty high temperatures here given the elevation

Mittersill at the base of Cannon is pretty close to 2000ft I think

Funny that it was warmer than 2 nights ago when we had no freeze warnings.
