  1. That’s fine. Although 2hrs would be even better.
  2. I just want that 3-4” of rain. I won’t lose sleep over missing out on a 35mph gust.
  3. At least the lawns will green up again by DJF.
  4. June was mostly seasonably cool except it was bookended by heat that averaged the month out to slightly AN. August was near normal with consistent ups and downs. 2013 doesn't really stand out when you include all of met summer.
  5.

  6. Here’s the coldest daily mins for the 5 warm season months at BML since the ASOS took over in 96. These numbers look nothing like this July.
  7. Freakish although it seems like the polar airmasses are harder and harder to come by in the heart of summer.
  8. Avg low is upper 50s here and I can barely get a low below 60 this month. Berlin COOP averages about 78/55 right now...the ASOS is 78/50 since they radiate so well.
  9. I’ll have to go single some of mine out and get pics. I need a 2020 pic of the chestnut out there too. This is all I have on my ipad. There’s a few pines out there with diameters like this. Some of the hemlocks are near the heights of the biggies. I thought most of the trees out there were white pine until I put my glasses on and actually got a good look at the foliage near the top.
  10. Sorry...I meant to put the 100’ label on the pines and not the hemlock. I think there’s only 1 NH hemlock measured at over 100’. I’m probably overestimating my white pines too, but there are some very large ones out there and the hemlock have to compete with them.
  11. Yeah the 100’ yellow birch and only 80’ white pines stood out to me too. I have some huge hemlock and white pine in the back woods that have to be over 100ft.

  13. It was better this year with the dry stretch, but my red maples are starting to get those fungal spots on the leaves again. Annoying.
  14. Hooksett Agway had some dawn redwoods. First time I’ve seen those.
  15. Wait until fall when it goes dormant maybe? Then try to get as much of the root mass as you can
  16. 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.
  17. Green ash has very short petioles (stems) from the leaflets. White ash has longer leaflet petioles. Black ash have none.
  18. Do you think blue ash would grow well up here? We’re pretty far NE from its native range. I’ve read that it has shown the best resilience to EAB although maybe that’s just a case of them preferring other ash first. Maybe the chemical that helps produce the blue dye inside the bark isn’t very appetizing?
  19. My green ash trees are producing a decent amount of seeds. Haven’t checked the sugar maple yet. But we have plenty of the ash and red maples if you need any to spread out there before winter. Maybe the shrubby willow is pussywillow?
  20. Tamarack holding me to a higher standard of information. Largest edible fruit tree native to the US (some sources say continent).
  21. I have a bunch of pawpaw seedlings started as well. They can handle zone 5 temps and are native to S MI and W NY...we'll see how they do in C NH this winter. They produce the largest fruit from any tree native to the US. They tend to grow as an understory in river and stream bottoms and can handle the occasional wet feet flooding. It's about as close to a tropical fruit tree as we get near this latitude of North America. I can't wait to get fruit from mine. omnomnom
