dendrite

Yeah that’s the camp I lean in. Slightly AN with lowest departures the further NE you go. But that’s been the trend for awhile now...there’s just a seasonal progression to it.

Euro op looks pretty warm in the extended. I feel like the heat is more likely to verify. Thought DIT would’ve posted about it by now, but maybe he woke up puking on the ceilometer at FMH?

And you’re one of those Massholes that flies by me on my way to work going 90-95mph.

59.4° here...had to turn the window fans off at midnight.

Nice hole punch.

Indoor temp?

Yeah I know what he meant. Just a little shot at JB there.

And yeah...more hope against EAB? https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-018-23216-6

They're coming.

I thought this was '53?

Superior is a frigid pit. Glad we don't live there.

No. But not much for shadows until about 3pm. Also I’m naturally whiter than NNE snow.

Man this sucks. It’s hot trying to work on a deck in the sun. MHT 88, ASH 88, CON is dead, but 87 in the area, LEB 88, LCI 85.

Not yet...been wiping them out with the pruners and loppers.

lol Did he graduate?

63° and rain.

I’m pretty sure the transgenic ones are going to get FDA approved in the next 2 years. All they changed was 1 gene. It doesn’t even kill the blight...it just allows the tree to be able to handle the acid it produces. Studies so far show that it doesn’t change anything with beneficial forest fungus, bee pollination, leaf litter decomposition, etc. Frog tadpoles have a higher survival rate in water with the chestnut leaf litter versus those from leaves from other trees too. Makes you wonder how much of the frog decline is due to that too. Anyway, they’re coming. Just gotta save the elm, ash, and hemlock now.

65/58 Warm but not warm enough here. DIT would be angry having to tie his B.U.M. Equipment sweatshirt around his waist so he can throw it on when he gets that chilled weenie by the fire.

Pic with a quarter for reference. Thank you Di! The smaller ones are mostly dark now and the larger mostly green.

It’s going to be sad when the Tolland cicada stops playing music and struggles to go into hibernation because the great late summer torch carries right through winter too.

Storm drains got blocked. My guess is the hail flowed and piled up in low draining areas as water drained out through it. Impressive either way.

You’ll be right eventually. You’re on a tough streak.

After Lava mentioned it, I found some of that around my chicken run too. The flowers fully open def look like creeping buttercup. I’m not a weed expert, although I’ve been trying to ID many of them since getting chooks.

Glad we don't live in Wyoming.

Low heights to our NE. Where have I seen that before? Could very well end up above normal in that period though. Devil is in the deets.
