metagraphica

Same here in the forest behind my house. European and American Beach trees are in very poor shape. I do have one Copper Beach in the yard that does not seem to be affected by the BLD, but has had some kind of white fungus on the leaves the past two seasons. Wondering how this will affect the mushroom growth this year as all the dead oaks and dead or missing Beach leaves are letting a ton of extra sunlight down to the forest floor. Will the extra light reduce the humidity under the canopy and reduce the amount of mushrooms we get? I guess we'll see.

Currently dark and dank under a very low layer of clouds (not quite ground fog) with satellite showing mid-level clouds from the SW converging with mid-level clouds from the NE overhead. 65/60. Not gonna warm up much until this mank goes away.

Backdoor blocked by CoC, leading to sweaty dews. Always love the summah discussion on here.

Up to 62 already after bottoming out at 45. CoC as far as the eye can see.

Same here.

FYP.

Looking good for SE CT folks.

68/65. Moist with occasional showers.

80/64 Nice!!!!

79/55. This is some nice CoC.

67/65 @ 8:45pm. Installed!! Otherwise it would have been extra sticky night.

Interesting roller coaster for temps today. Started at a low of 59. Made it up to 72 before the t-storms. Down to 64 during the rain and now back up to 77. Sticky with a 68 dewpoint.

Looks like somewhere around the Ekonk Grange got slammed. Hail and maybe some wind.

Just heavy rain and a couple rumbles. No wind at all. Made it up to 72, but now down to 68 with the rain.

I'm sure SW CT will get the goods as usual. By the time it gets to New London county it will probably be weakening due to ocean taint....but we'll see. The current radar shows some good cells over and moving off the eastern end of Long Island.

82 for the high. 78/62 now. AC still not installed.

We can hope. I have a feeling this is summer is going to be warm and dewy.

Hit 74 earlier. Back down to 68 already. Dew point is in the upper 50's though, so we got that going for us.

bleh.....56 and rain. Not a great way to run a Saturday in the middle of May, but not unprecedented either.

Was a small slot of clearing over my house in Salem in the past 10 minutes or so. Could see stars but no aurora.

Wiz, maybe you'll get to see something like this:

Can't wait for these clouds to burn off. Still 52 under this mank as of 11:22.

56/45 currently. Sun trying to break through. If it does we'll warm to the mid sixties pretty quick I'd reckon.

Now this is REAL fake cold. 36 @ HFD, 34 @ IJD, 37 @ SNC. What happened to the frost and freeze? It was much colder just a few days ago. Was hoping to get a real good freeze to kill the damn black flies.

GWDLT. Although it was holding steady at 49ish most of the morning until the clouds finally cleared...then popped to 60 right quick.
