Stomping is a waste of time and who wants bug guts all over your shoes? They will wreck havoc for a couple of years and then calm down whether you stomp them or not. There’s so many invasive plants, insects, and diseases that it’s not worth fighting it anymore. It’s a global habitat now because of humans. All of the continents would come back together in another 250M years anyway. One good thing about them is they love the invasive Tree of Heaven. So they can wipe that out while other animals learn to eat the lantern flies.

HRRR and 3k don't fire up the line tomorrow until it's just barely east of here. I may start breeding lantern flies and dumping them off at members' homes if I don't get some decent rain soon.

I reported you to Governor Healey for your excessive use of ground pesticides.

It’s a waste of time killing them. They’re here now. It’s like the gypsies. I have to laugh at the public service announcements they’re putting out south of here to smash them all. The predatory insects and birds will realize they’re lunch soon.

Yes! They’re coming. Show it love. They usually cause an infestation for a couple of years and then their numbers wane.

Yeah I’m torn between viewing and trolling versus giving him the views and clicks. It’s a strange timeline that we live in.

One of mine has bad blight at the base. I need to mudpack it or cut it down. I posted some pics in this thread. Have you had flowers yet?

It’s weird how they do it with the COOPs. The daily data gets entered in for the day at the time it’s reported…so 12z. So all of those COOP highs temps from the hot day on 6/24 get listed as occurring on 6/25. I know they want consistency, but I hate it.

Gotta subtract out that 7/31 data. Belchertown had 1.91” and Amherst 1.42”.

Disaster month north of CON into the Lakes Region % of normal

0.54” here MTD. 0.50” of that was 1 day.

The avg first 32° at HIE is 9/14 at the ASOS. You should be close to that. Last year was the latest since the station started in 1996…October 6.

Mins

“Only” 33° at HIE this morning. Bummer.

Back up to 34°…there’s maybe a 20 min window in there where they may have snuck one in. 42.4° may do it here

6hr min at HIE will be interesting…

42.7° Coldest since June

Not a drop. We try again Friday.

Holy shit

F off

0.07” with that shower at CON…0.27” MTD now. Nothing here yet. 67.6° BKN

Some of the earlier runs had the sfc flow backing a bit and a hint of a closing sfc reflection, but it never looked like much of a big deal for SNE. There may have been a run or two where it enhanced rainfall for N ME.
