Tropopause_Fold Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Are they the yellow or red maples? Oak leaves just starting to peak out here. We're about a week behind the valley where everything is just about fully out it's weird...maybe it happens every year i don't know...but i think i'm actually ahead of you out here. i noticed in those lawn photos you posted last week too. our maples are probably like 75 to 80% done and most of the oaks all have those small light green leaves now...some still have that reddish orange hue but a lot are now leafing out.

CoastalWx Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Are they the yellow or red maples? Oak leaves just starting to peak out here. We're about a week behind the valley where everything is just about fully out They're those Norwegian Maples I think, but I've never seen these weird green things. Perhaps I just never noticed them before. Anyways, it's a mess and I'm pissed. Everything is coated green. The oaks are also a week or so behind in the burbs as compared to the city. I have those yellowish green leaves right now, while up in this area and even down at my parents, the leaves are just poking out giving that yellowish tinge look to the crown of those oaks.

CoastalWx Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 LOL. true weenies pay attention to everything nature-related. LOL, it's true...and the funny thing is that we all understand what each one of us is saying when describing these things. I also think as compared to many springs that I remember, we're a little ahead of the game in terms of green-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Good Morning Southern New England (even though phil says living in Fairfield ct is not new england) AS expected, nothing but wall to wall sunshine and 70 temps for all except se mass and the cape, probably the BEST weather week of the entire year! Best Spring ever rolls on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sunny 56 Perfection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sounds like you're def. ahead of me. The maples aren't even fully out yet. I think since it was warmer out your way in March and early April...it helped get you going sooner.

HoarfrostHubb Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 The birch trees have huge numbers of blossoms (flowers, or whatever). Don't remember seeing so many. They are loaded with pollen. When I was doing yardwork this weekend I brushed up against some and a yellow cloud formed. Maples coming along, oaks lagging as usual. Can't wait for that pollen Gorgeous outside today. Nice breeze, Tip's cerrulean skies, not too warm, dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed those stupid maples that I have are leafed out, but the yellow and red maples are still just getting their leaves. Around my area though, things are defintely ahead of most places.

Logan11 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Sometimes it's a plus to live in primarily fields. I have a nice hardwood forest out back, but it's 1500 feet away from the house. Looks like a nice sunny day out there so far. . They're those Norwegian Maples I think, but I've never seen these weird green things. Perhaps I just never noticed them before.
