  1. Nice deluge overnight. 50.4” and +RA right now. 2.26” and rising quickly.
  2. The Davis is pretty accurate. The differences pretty much come down to siting. The airports tend to have 360° of unobstructed flow to the 10m sited ultrasonic anemometers. The home stations obviously tend to have to deal with buildings and trees and have trouble getting up to the official height. If you have trees around the recommendation is to go even higher than that to get above the tree canopy. Good luck with that. You can actually read too high in some slanted roof setups if the anemometer is too low since the wind will accelerate as it is forced upward. All of that air flowing in in that column from the peak of the roof to the bottom gets “squeezed” together and it has to speed up the slope…think bernoulli. A good 5ft+ above the peak of the roof should suffice.
  3. Would like some breaks tonight given the space weather.
  4. 10 years ago weenies were worrying about warm ground.
  5. Up here it's... Plow: Nov 25th Salt: Never
  6. SLK 20F BML 22F HIE 22F The rad pits were chilly this morning. Quite a few 25-27F mins in Merrimack Co. as well.
  7. 31.2° Really wanted to make it to Novie freeze free. Oh well.
  8. 34.5° here…I brought a lot of my plants in, but left the avocado trees out. Hopefully it doesn’t drop below 30°.
  9. That's a sign of a cold night at the N NH pits...higher summits with low RH and rapidly radiating sfc air draining into the bowls.
  10. Everyone is out there gunning for huge strong bucks. On a related note...that chronic wasting disease in deer is looking pretty serious. That's going to be culling a lot of the herd as well. Hopefully it doesn't make it up here and doesn't spread to humans.
  11. The world would be better off killing off 25% of the human population too.
  12. Killing off the strong promotes the weak to reproduce.
  13. Hopefully all of the deer this season make it out alive.
  14. Other than decoding the METARs for the day you can go on Mesowest and they usually have the peak wind obs decoded. You have to scroll down to the 1553z ob to find it on the right side. https://mesowest.utah.edu/cgi-bin/droman/meso_base_dyn.cgi?stn=KHVN&time=GMT
  15. As much as it pains me to agree with him the ASOS gusted to 55mph in between hours.
