Maybe avoid any seafood sourced from LI sound for awhile.

Just awful. Stating the obvious here but the recovery efforts are going to be $$$ and last for months. Vermont's topography and the fact that most towns are settled along the rivers in the valley make it a "perfect" candidate for significant flooding. The water just has nowhere to go. And it's not like these are people building new multi-million dollar homes along the floodplains of prime hurricane country. These are hundreds of years old settlements. That is to say, you can't fault anyone for the losses they're experiencing.

Appreciate the updates. I have family in Henniker, nice to have a(nother) poster from that area.

I see whats recently been added to the grocery list.

Yep, 66/64 with thick fog. Mid-winter stillness in sound, late spring in sight, and feels like a mid-summer-on-an-island night in Penobscot bay.

Still managed 81F here somehow despite the marine puke

That would be my head. Guess what? I don't like dongs over my head.

We went with my 1 & 3 year old nephews last summer. The 1/3 did fine, but keep your expectations in check for how long you'll actually make it into the day. I think my kids were probably 2 and 4 the first time we went. I'd say the ages we enjoyed it the most was when the kids were between 5 and 8, as they could ride all rides (plus no nap/stroller)

Yep - Wednesday July 5 for me.

Effin' A right it does

I wonder if there's some terrain/orographic lift influence (either in reality or with that algorithm) as that steep increase in total from Somers to Stafford follows the elevation gain, right along 190 there.

I do. They're currently jumping on the trampoline in a downpour. Weenies in training.

0.39" rain and cloud cover until about 530 pm. Got in 2 hours at the beach and a swim.

It's only ruined if you let it. Make lemonade.

8.53" since June 1 here, with 2.48" of that since July 1. This mornings 0.01" (and counting) after the 7AM cocorahs report makes for 11 straight days of measurable precip

Things have definitely changed, especially here in Casco Bay. When I was a kid in the 90s the temp would struggle to hit 60 on the beaches by late August. Now, the temp will touch 70 or higher every August. I'd guess we're currently at 62-64, even with the upwelling yesterday.

Beer. Undoubtedly.

Ha, forgot about that. Manny, sh*tbag that he is, was worth the $$. 67° and FOG.

It's also Manny Ramirez day. Getting 2M a year through 2026.

I'll take the 66° Atlantic all day everyday. I'm a tuna, ya know.

Not a refreshing temp at all.

Stratus puke aside, nice to have another ME poster. Sun'll give us a (coc) tease for an hour tomorrow. About all you can hope for at this point.

If it ain't monochrome it's stein

It's all you can do, right? The fact that we've got 2 (short) camping trips and 2 dips in the ocean in so far is miraculous. Looks like June will end with 21 of 30 days with measurable precip, and only 5 of 30 completely dry (no trace). Georgetown Island (Pit 2 territory) today.

Pick your poison kind of summer so far. Low level Atlantic mank or wildfire smoke. Swell.
