  1. Well I actually do agree that dews can be higher in more vegetative areas and where surface moisture is more readily retained. I said that in my first post. But I don't think it's a 5F+ difference like we see sometimes with some home stations vs ASOS. If Davis ever develops compatibility to the Sensirion I2C sensors we can start using the SHT35 and SHT85 sensors in our stations which are highly accurate across the entire temperature range.
  2. So toss the BDL temp then?
  3. There's much better mixing at airports and most sites I've seen look fairly arid with not a lot of evapotranspiration nearby. Most of these home sites have sprinklers, pools, trees, shrubs, lush LESCO filled grass, etc. There's also better accuracy with ASOS although some of the newer Davis thermohygrometers have much better RH accuracy than previous versions.
  4. The low clouds are slowly eroding away. Valleys ftl.
  5. Almost totally clear at home, but totally overcast in CON.
  6. Aloft doesn’t translate to the surface anymore? Wha?
  7. My cats and chickens were petrified and hiding.
  8. Neighbors had a huge fireworks show last night and this morning I have a crap ton of debris in my backyard and woods. Yeah, it’s pretty, but why do they allow this crap again?
  9. Anyone have any recommendations on a gas powered brush cutter? I want to wipe out a lot of this buckthorn. Some of it is 1-2” diameter, but I suppose I could lop the biggest ones.
  10. I don’t think the people in Houston on my 600lb life even keep their ACs on 60°.
  11. First glimpse of sun of the day. Pretty much a ratter. 62.8°
  12. 1st Lake, Diamond Pond, and Lake Francis are all the warmest in NH right now with 70F.
  13. We will happily conserve our TP.
  14. Wed/Thu should be pretty damn hot up here. S-SW flow is a downsloper for S/C NH. Of course that should keep the dews in check for us as well. So probably warmer at CON/MHT than BDL, but less humid.
  15. 68.3 Nice halo around the sun earlier
  16. Nice. I did the whole yard last fall with a backpack. Fun stuff.
  17. We wait. They came out of the fridge about 10 days ago.
  18. Yup. Keep locking these days in. 11th top 10 day of the year.
  19. 36° A little too close to freezing for my plants’ liking.
  20. No cold front indicated there
  21. There’s tulip poplars in VT and MA. I got one from Go Native trees a few years ago and it’s doing well in the back yard. It just needs a stake to straighten it out a bit. I’ll get a pic of it later. If you want to try something from scratch you can try getting seeds from Sheffield seeds and germinating them yourself. I’ve direct seeded some tree seeds from them. I just find it superior to pot growing and then transplanting. I’m trying air pots right now to see if the fibrous root pruning claims are as good as they say they are. edit... there it is. It should be pretty easy to straighten out.
  22. It was funny. We had a wind shift from NE to ESE a couple hours ago and we’ve been tickling down with the temp ever since. 66° and crystal clear blue skies and a nice breeze.
  23. The sun is strong this time of year. A cold front is really a density front with an airmass of higher density advecting in. Clear it out behind the front and it can actually end up warmer than ahead of it. That happens all of the time up here in CAD land. It's the same thing as a dry line. I know you know all of this...just "saying" it in general aloud. We should really confuse the public and call it a high rho front.
