  1. 32. It's going to be quite a few hours below freezing tonight. Not that it matters, plants are dead
  2. I'm not disagreeing. But my post was started by your comment that the trees in my pictures looked "drought." I don't dispute that trees in Southern areas may be stressed. What I was saying is that I don't think they are up here, and therefore disagree that those trees looked droughty. They look like pretty typical early foliage trees.
  3. 39. It's frigging freezing, Mr Bigelsworth!
  4. We had about 10" or so. The last 2 weeks have really been the only really dry stretch (0.25"). Below average for sure, but not like it hasn't rained in months!
  5. 1. WTF is mental loss 2. You will notice it says "parts of the Northeast". This isn't one of them. Sure, top soil is dry. But there's plenty of water around. There is still water in the wetland and vernal pools around my property. It's not the Sahara you imagine
  6. The whole "foliage is bad because of drought" seems ridiculous to me. We've had about 2.5" of rain in the past month. Sure, only 1/4" in the past 2 weeks, but tree roots are not 10" deep. Even my grass is still doing fine and I don't have a sprinkler system. If grass can be green, I doubt trees are suffering that much.
  7. It actually went up as it got windy for a while but it's dropping again. 37
  8. LOL. I was forced by my kids who kept whining that they were freezing at night.
  9. I had a fire going last night. Love it.
  10. Good. My dead tomatoes need company.
  11. I guess this is the easiest way to show it
  12. I'm just about there just a little bit to the East. My house is actually directly below the West Mountain ski trails at Bretton Woods
  13. Very similar to my river here. Funny thing is my well pressure overflow still spews water like always. I wonder what it would take to change the water supply at 750 ft deep. But I really don't want to find out. Let's plan on making up the qpf in the winter
  14. That's exactly right! You can actually see it driving up 16; very often there's a wall of snow to your west/northwest, and broken clouds with flurries in the valley
  15. Busy day so I haven't been on at all, but Pinkham Notch gets significantly less upslope than we do. Our numbers from the past couple of years seem to align pretty well with Randolph coop so I think it makes sense.
  16. -36 was the coldest I’ve seen since moving here. It hurts
  17. I drove to Whitefield daily last year and I can confirm that there were plenty of times when we have a foot plus and they had nothing. Literally bare ground. In fact I’ve noticed a few occasions when Littleton had significantly more snowcover. It’s a combination of lack of significant upslope, strong downslope, and poor CAD (although we are even worse on that front at the higher elevations, but we more than make it up in upslope)
  18. By the way since I somehow hijacked this thread (I really am not using it for advertising I swear, I just thought that house would be cool for weenies like me to see) we are looking for maintenance and office people if you know anyone interested in living up here. We now manage 70+ properties, can’t hire fast enough.
  19. I don’t think so...but I’m not a snowmobiler so I should probably find out!
  20. It is. We have 2 on that road, one facing the CT river and the NEK and this one. Aside from the view, it’s a really cool house designed by some famous architect in the 60s I believe. Very quirky
  21. That’s correct! It’s about 1500 ft on Dalton Ridge
