Damage In Tolland

Stay over in Portland one night and hit all the breweries. It’s just not a single day trip route

Epic pollen this year with the warm early spring. Inches deep

Didn’t it fail badly on the “door” last week?Instead of screen doors slamming shut , people kept them pinned open to let warmth in

Op gfs is alone

Won’t be miserable at all . Couple days will feature some sunny periods and 70+. Most likely Monday or Tuesday .Especially inland . Couple of showers on 1-2 days , but not much rain . Coastal is way offshore on EPS, GGEM etc. So late week cooler 60’s but likely mainly dry

Beautiful day on tap. Bright bow and pushing 60 already . Heading for 70’s CT

It is nice to see everyone from north to south share in a nice warm and early warm season. Better than leaf outs Memorial Day and beyond

Yeah this sounds decent despite Kooky Kenny posts 70+ where most folks LIVE thru Thursday Confidence higher in the temperatures across southern New England on Monday with the EPS and other guidance sources interquartile range around 5-7 degrees. Should see temperatures topping out in the low 60s across NE MA, Cape Cod and the Islands to the mid 70s in the CT River Valley. Lots more spread on Tuesday/Wednesday with the interquartile range getting to 10-20 degrees between the 25th and 75h percentile. Do have a bit more confidence on Tuesday across CT of temps in the low to mid 70s. Leaned on the NBM guidance due to the uncertainty at this point in time. Readings on Wednesday also fairly spread given uncertainty with the frontal passage. Readings range from the low 60s to low 70s. This is all despite the mild 925 hPa air in the 9 to 15+ degree Celsius range as low level easterly flow will keep those temperatures down. Did add a mention of thunderstorms later on Tuesday into early Wednesday as there is a surge of warmer air advecting in and the front appears to jog a bit further northward. Models showing a few hundred J/kg of MUCAPE across western MA into CT, which is possible given models showing some sky clearing in the low to mid levels

I’ve been keeping quiet while the Yanks have struggled early.. listening to all the Sox fans gloating , saying they’re the best team in the AL east etc. Noting the calendar , and the 162 game schedule. Just watching and waiting and making notes .

Scooter just correcting everyone everywhere. Always a sign hes weather unhappy with the pattern

36.4 and some wind on my run earlier. Not the most pleasant of Mayorch mornings. But suns out and we tan this afternoon in the 60’s

We grabbed

Hickory dickory dock?

Here’s May 9th last year in almost the same view as the one I took today. Trees were mainly bare. So you can see it’s about 14 days ahead of schedule this year with the warm spring

Would you consider the two species of Oaks I posted above as leaf out? That’s how I define leaf out . Small leaves on all species here in CT

Found these on some downed limbs . We out

Every species has leafed out. Every single one . Enjoy the weekend

You’re right . You always are

Do you know what leaf out means? It means the leaves have popped. Not that they look like July . I mean I give up with you . Always has to be some kind of argument

My 15 yr old daughter had been suffering since mid Morch with the warm , dry spring. Was brutal for her until about 2 weeks ago. Whatever blooms early kills her

Every tree has tiny leaves. All Oaks. So do yours . but go ahead and argue. That’s just what you do.

Big rips out there now

Doing what? Ffft’s?

Holy pollen. Vehicles covered in inches of it . Full leaf out. Car wash daily season is here

Next week looks ok. Couple of periods of showers mixed between periods of sun. Typical early May. Second half of month is looking like early summer with ridging over EC
