dendrite

DD…large cold brew, black, no ice

Electric Blue?

Hell no

Did Stein stop hyperventilating after the 00z euro?

Glad we installed.

Don't do it. I have it in my chicken run and maintain the rhizomes, but it's aggressive. But yeah, it got top killed again this year. The rhizomes store a lot of energy so they will just put up a bunch of shoots this spring...they just won't be as tall. If you want a bamboo privacy screen look into the clumping bamboos (fargesia). They are more cold hardy as well. The running ones are primarily phyllostachys although there's a US native one that is more shrubby in the SE (arundinaria gigantea...aka Canebreak or River Cane bamboo). That will run too though.

COD has avg cloud cover for the NAM, GFS, and a few others. Look under precipitation products. https://weather.cod.edu/forecast/legacy/

Maybe. I've had -17F a couple times here and they flowered after that. This obviously had wind with it too so maybe the flower buds got desiccated.

My pear trees are already breaking bud...before my forsythia.

Another warm one. 73.8° for the high.

Back to reality. 45.8°

Yeah I think they were. CON’s 5 earliest days of 80+ were all that 2012 stretch.

I’d put Mar 98 as more anomalous up here. Mar 2012 and Apr 76 as well…definitely a different story deeper into SNE though.

I’ll be honest…it was just a casual glance and I haven’t been eyeing BDL long term. But it definitely stood out at the time. Looks like BAF may have snuck at least a 94° in there as well considering how long it was at 34C.

Pretty sure Scoot has FIT and OWD on the 2F watch list as well. It’s kinda weird. We went from the home stations predominantly being warmer than the ASOS sites and now it’s mostly the other way around. I think the home stations have gotten a lot better while many airports now care more about ease of maintenance rather than extreme accuracy of the data. Maybe I’m exaggerating here and it’s only a case of a few here and there. But the improved home stations is a real thing…aspirated shields and improved temp accuracy in that 0F to 100F range.

We’re due for a 73° the first week of December.

BAF 92 and HFD 91…time to pull out the MADIS?

For those who hit B2B 90s this will probably be the earliest on record for that…although I think the heat wave centered a few days later than this in 1976 was a little more anomalous.

Nope, but I’m beyond impressed that BOS is holding low 80s despite E 16mph obs on 4/14.

Yeah BOS dropped to 77° and then crept back up to 80° despite ESE flow. Total weak sauce. Even ACK is back up to 71°.

BOS just flipped E.
