dendrite

Charts lol

"Substantial" may have been a poor choice of words. It's not like I'm saying it will be chilly. Getting 850s even a hair below normal from the NW will probably feel substantial. In the end it's probably more of a mild down than this weekend. Of course if the SE ridge decides to really flex that could hang the front up a bit to our NW and it just clears us as a diffuse POS.

Was using the euro

Looking like a mild down this weekend and then ridging getting pinched off ahead of a more substantial cold front next week.

Great where?

IADOT 91mph

Tostitos Bear necessities right there

Screen doors slammed shut?

Epstein Salt?

This will be the year we pull off a cold early fall and close the windows in Sep with COVID lurking around.

Those have really nice bark at maturity.

Yup...entirely different tree. The nuts aren’t edible either. Gene has one and it’s a nice ornamental, but he does have problems with sapsuckers. His tree service has done a lot of work to seal it up to keep it alive. I’m not familiar with the different cultivars though.

Dunstans are a hybrid with good resistance. Any chinese tree will have resistance too. I know our Agway tried selling a few purely chinese trees last year, but they were still there in the fall. You can find 100% American trees online grown from seeds from parents with good blight tolerance, but there’s no guarantee on what those seedlings will produce. I have about 10 american trees in my yard right now because I’m on the early list for those transgenic american trees from SUNY ESF. I need to have some pure american trees with it to create genetic diversity. Half of the nuts from the transgenic tree with carry the blight resistant gene and the other half won’t. I believe the transgenic ones are expected to be available to the public in a few years if they get the OK from the govt.

Think I found it...robber fly.

I'm just hoping for a cold front this winter. 2 would be gravy.

Lots of nice weather, but about the most boring summer I can remember. COVID restrictions haven't help.

Anyone know what this is?

I live north of you. It’s already dark here by 5pm. In another month it’s full darkness.

MAV with 95° at CON for Tue...probably do it again on Wed.

Dog days. I could already feel yesterday at midday how much bite the sun had lost. The darker mornings suck.

Don't recall that one, but I remember this one well. https://www.weather.gov/okx/HistoricFlooding_081314

Yeah that's rare but doable. You're basically doing 0.15"-0.20"/min. I've done that in a min before on the Davis, but can't imagine it for a half hour. But even as insane as that is, the 1.23" in 1 minute is like 6x heavier. I just can't believe it's possible. That record was from July 4, 1956 and I guess the equipment calibrated out correctly. I figured everything was manual gauges back then though? If it was manual, who in their right mind is going out there to check the rain during the heaviest rainfall in world history?
