I mean look at the other top 4 years there....all the same for each site...1913, 1932, 1933, and 1937. Then 2020 comes in at #3 for BOS, #8 for PVD, and #10 for BDL and ORH. Something is definitely wrong.
Strong rad night so idk about sneaky...at least for him. -10° at 1st Lake and Lake Francis. Only down to 11.9° here. Should be a nice warm day with 26° atop Gunstock.
Yeah...probably. I'm actually at peace with it. We're kind of escaping the worst of the possible cold (not totally out of the woods yet), so even if we pile on another 3-5ft of snow the rest of the way I'm down with it. The chooks are starting to feel that sun angle...lots of sun bathing today and they're starting to check out the boxes for the first time since Oct/Nov. The worst thing is when we get a ton of rain, I get water flowing into the run, and then we rapidly ice up and turn into AK for a few days. This weekend was an A+ way to get rain...drop it overnight and then follow it up with 40s and sun. Everything soaked in and it can dry out a bit before evening.
But whatever the weather throws at us, we deal with it. It seems like there's always a challenge with them. It's like I fix 2 problems and a new one arises...but I guess we're getting there.
Next on the agenda is growing some hops this year and putting the tines up on the west side of the run. They should be fertilized well adjacent to the run and they'll get lots of sun. Come lawn thread time I'll start asking the beer snobs for hops choices.
