KLEB?

Only 11 weeks until we get snow, you can make it.

Comet viewing cancelled here. Too cloudy. Plus I don't want to stay up that late.

Was it visible with the naked eye or did you use binoculars?

This inspired me to lookup the hottest rain event as I had a memory of it being set a couple of years ago. 119F in Imperial Valley. Dew at the time was only 58. https://www.wunderground.com/cat6/Hottest-Rain-Record-Rain-falls-119F-Imperial-California This article says highest recorded dew was 95 in 2003 in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. https://wgntv.com/weather/weather-blog/ask-tom-why/what-are-the-highest-dew-points-worldwide-and-for-the-u-s/ It was supposedly 108 at the time, for a heat index of 178! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/capital-weather-gang/wp/2015/07/30/iran-city-hits-suffocating-heat-index-of-154-degrees-near-world-record/ Back in 95, Appleton WI was 101/90 for a heat index of 148.i https://www.wunderground.com/blog/weatherhistorian/record-dew-point-temperatures.html I

Is that some weird new mulch?

Wife called, we have some water in the basement. Drought to mushrooms.

Consider parts of the Champlain Valley as it does not retain snow compared to the rest of Vermont. You can observe this for a bit as you visit your daughter.

A bunch of flash flood warnings were issued early this morning and it has just kept raining up there since: https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=gyx&wwa=flash flood warning

Looks to be massive amounts of rain falling in the Ct Valley north of me up towards Newbury Vt/ Woodsville NH area.

They blew up right near me. I started hearing thunder around 3:30. So they are very slow moving. Some good rain here but the heaviest was to my east. Gray has put out a flood advisory for much of western NH because of them.

Trees would indicate it is at least a few months old

Just an update to say this verified 100%! Looking forward Euro continues to not be optimistic about our snow chances and run to run consistency has been high in this regard.

Next year he will rip up the lawn and plant corn to microclimate his dews.

Facebook. someone has a relative in the Delmarva who was forecast to get up to 4 inches or hears the Weather Channel say that some places may get up to 4 inches. They take it to mean that they to will get 4 inches and posts that as if it is expected. People then run with it without verifying. Same reason a forecast of 4 to 8 inches of snow with lollis to 10 inches turns into a mass believing they will be getting close to a foot then "we are supposed to get a foot".

Don't worry, after this summer you won't hit 85 again there for a decade.

You dew dreams may actually come true:

To install- or not to install, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The sweats and mold of outrageous dews, Or to take arms against a sea of humidity And by opposing end it. To pass out from heat—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To pass out, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to lie sweating on the sheets—ay, there's the rub: For in that sleep of dews what dreams may come, When we have sweated off this mortal coil, Must give us pause—there's the respect That makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the chafing and stink of dews, Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of dispritz'd love, the AC's delay, The insolence of central air, and the spurns That patient merit of th'unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? Who would window unit bear, To grunt and lift from the basement for a weary wife, But that the dread of something after FROPA, The undiscovere'd country, from whose frosty air No traveller returns without 14 day quarantine, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus sore back does make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of heat exhaustion, And enterprises of great pitch and moment With this regard their currents turn awry And lose the name of action.

... and then we steal your severe Over 1.1 inches at the Philly airport from 12 to 1pm, flash flood warnings up for the second time this week there.

Vermont to SeNE 2020: first we stole your snow, then we stole your heat, now we steal your tropical storms.

You're welcome. I had not seen that particular article before but have seen similar info in a couple of books "Reading the Forested Landscape" and similar treatises on the history of Vermont's forests. I thing David Ludlum's Vermont weather book also goes into the impacts of 38. I will have to dig it up for a read.

In case anyone wants to geek out on reading the signs of the 38 hurricane damage in the woods of VT https://northernwoodlands.org/articles/article/hurricane-1938

Gee I wonder where the river valleys are?
