He’s getting in August what you got last January.

65.6° BKN skies Chilly with the 20-30mph gusts when it clouds up.

1.58” yesterday in the stratus.

Fairly seasonable week up here. Warm days and cool nights to start the week. GFS and euro have some rain up here Thu with the WAA so we’ll see how that plays out. It’ll probably end up being well into the 80s even up here. Then it comes down to the FROPA and CAA timing Friday. Right now it looks like a COC day up here with falling 850s and 70s although it could be in the 80s if the front slows. With the frequent cold fronts now we start running the risk of turning these 1-2 days torches in to wet CAD days and then we pull a couple of COC days behind it with W-NW flow. So the warm colors aloft won’t always be translating to the sfc up here. BDL will probably pull 90° Thu and Fri though.

Loud thunder.

1.31” in the Stratus and 1.40” in the tipper. Time for a calibration.

While I’m out with my birds in pants and a hoodie

I grew to love pack living here. Everyone here has their winter thing. PF has the upslope, you guys have the biggies, I have the consistent mod/hvy events and pack, some have the elevation boost, some have the rad cooling, James has the wind...lol. As much as the pack drives me insane sometimes it can be good for the yard. Having 6”+ over the landscape DJFM can really help insulate the plants. The CAD wedges can get depressing though.

High of 62 here unless we mix out later. lol

Who are you?

CAD season is back.

59.6° -RADZ Neverending torch

28th most prominent mountain in the CONUS. How many of those 28 have public roads up to the summit?

Had 1.01" Aug 1-28 and then 1.35" this morning.

57.6° -RA with embedded heavier showers. 1.33”

I know a good landscaper.

1.14" RA/+RA

Over an inch and already puddles in the yard. It doesn’t take long.

Jesus. Just saw dews down there are 70° while the temp is 56° here. Nice theta-e grad.

56° + RA 0.78” and counting

Yeah I’ll have to do some digging on samaras from more obscure acer trees. I’ve seen striped maple seeds (have one in the back woods) and they don’t look like this. Other than striped, boxelder, and mountain maple I’m not really familiar with any other of the less common maples.

MPM moves around more than pickles and he’s a traveling gigolo.

Quick 0.57” in the tipper. Still heavy rain but tapering toward moderate.
