Crappy cool day again. 74.7F

A severe 0.52” of rain. Down to 62°

Moosup Hollow?

Barely a heat wave at the STEM and we know 990ft is cooler.

NWS El Paso has had wx calcs up for as long as I can remember there being the internet. https://www.weather.gov/epz/wxcalc

Is there enough potential horizontal vorticity in the atmosphere after all of the tors from Fay?

Showers and overcast all day here. 67.7/62 No suits here

Was at a light in Concord by the river and was just glancing around and realized just how many honeylocust trees were growing around the area. That may be another tree that would thrive in your wetter area. You could get the native thorned ones, but they have those stunning thornless Sunburst honeylocust cultivars too.

Glad we don’t live there. 63° this morning and 60s and rain now.

Yeah I know. But with the way it spreads like wildfire through those buildings I feel like it's not representative of the community spread as a whole. The nursing home right across the woods from me had like 50+ cases, but Franklin has only had 68 total cases, Tilton 5, and Northfield under 5 (NH site just lists 1-4). I know this doesn't apply to all areas (especially higher density areas), but in these rural areas we're talking about I just don't find them very representative.

Maybe I'm wrong for thinking this, but I don't factor senior centers and nursing homes much into the community spread.

Not making fun of anything. Just pointing out how the GFS was doing everything within its power in the mid/late range to keep the heat out of here. It tried another prolonged retrograde of CAA garbage like it did earlier in the month. Looks like 18z is continuing the theme. Another GFS vs EC battle?

MT and WY aren’t doing well? They’re near the bottom of the lists in cases and cases/1M. And these are red states with a lot of people that dgiaf about masks, distancing, etc.

It’s pretty easy to keep numbers down in rural states like VT, NH, and ME. Population density seems to be driving this the most.

ineedsnow ran this GFS run out of his basement.

82/61 Not damaging

Full moon goon for sure

Lots of those beetles here too Oriental beetles

Some sun is good. Too much is bad. Obviously if you’re pastey white your genes are inherited from ancestors that evolved to not need much sun. The less melanin in your skin, the faster you can make vitamin D from minimal UV exposure. Of course that also means less protection from the sun. I can burn pretty quickly early in the season so I have to limit myself until my body adjusts and at least tries to produce a little melanin in my skin. A lot of research has shown that the UVA is the nasty wavelength of UV wrt cancers even though it doesn’t produce much of a burn. A lot of truck drivers deal with skin cancers on their left arms or left side of their face eventually in life since the glass of their windows blocks the UVB but not the UVA. So even though the UVB will cause you the most pain with surface burns, the UVA goes deeper into your skin. Also, getting some infrared light before being out in the sun can help minimize burning later in the day. Very early sun has a higher IR:UV ratio so getting some at 8am can prime you to handle the midday UV a bit better. There’s IR saunas available in some areas too.

Only 554 active cases in NH as of yesterday and 1/5 of those were in Goffstown which I assume is a nursing home.

I use pivotal weather and always compare the frames valid at the 18z times. So it's always the peak of the afternoon. They have it out to d10 at 6hr intervals.
