snowNH Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Dad has carotid artery surgery tomorrow. good luck. My grandparents each had double by pass open heart surgeries and lived 10 years longer! Unfortunately they both passed within this past year. Its kinda funny, its almost like they died so close together so that they can be with each other whatsever after death.

Allenson Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 Well, topped out at 85F here at the house yesterday and sitting at a not too bad 65F this morning. Would love to see some of that rainfall action in SE Canada making its way here... Still have never seen 90F here but today might be the day. Dad has carotid artery surgery tomorrow. Good luck, man.

mreaves Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Local forecaster Rroger Hill mentioned that BTV and MPV had possible record high minimums this morning. 76° at BTV and 75° at MPV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Spin Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Local forecaster Rroger Hill mentioned that BTV and MPV had possible record high minimums this morning. 76° at BTV and 75° at MPV. Thanks for passing that along, I missed Roger’s broadcast this morning. I’m very surprised to hear that MPV had such an elevated temperature, because we’re often similar in overnight lows. We got down to 66 F at the house last night though, so clearly we were in a different environment than MPV – perhaps we were sheltered from the south wind and they were in a similar situation to BTV? I was actually curious how things would go last night for temperatures, since our BTV point forecast had the low at 69 F, but we certainly got well under that. The air was cool, but definitely moist as well. Our point forecast temperature for tonight is similar to last night’s, so we’ll have to see how it plays out.

I saw that MPV was still in the 70s this morning while over here, we got down into the low 60s. Thought that was a little strange... Anyway, warm & sticky out there today but so far, the persistent cloud cover has kept things manageable. Mid-80s here on the CT valley floor right now. A lot better than the 95F that Gray is showing for Hanover on the point & clicker.... I shudder to think if the clouds go away..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The house was 71 this morning and it felt cooler outside (thermo on the blink). Cloud cover currently keeping things reasonable - 82°/68°. Much more comfortable than I expected when I went out for lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eekuasepinniW Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 My station peaked at 95.1 which beats my previous record of 94.6 back in 2007. Really curious how much warmer it would have been had the sun actually came out for more than 5-10 minutes at a time. There was a thick cirrus cloud hovering pretty much stationary overhead for what felt like eternity around 3pm. Pool somehow didn't gain a single degree today. The 30+mph wind was unexpected and it tangled my amaranthus plants all to hell, but it kept it feeling remarkably comfortable outside. Hopefully this wind gives us a Key-West-in-April style night and keeps the temps above 80 until midnight or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Peaked at 93F...this is just pure insanity. Wow was today impressive. 75F at the summit of Mansfield is pretty much unheard of. BTV made it to at least 96F based on the hourly observations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw 65F last night... couldn't believe BTV was in the mid/upper 70s for overnight lows. You know that downtown BTV was hotter than the field out at the airport too. Last summer I remember a few nights at my girlfriend's where her basic thermometer on the side of the house wouldn't drop below 80F. You'd wake up at like 2am to go to the bathroom and it'd be like 84F outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I'm seeing the great lightning show down here in Central NH. Its awesome! 82.5F at 10pm and with the humidity is just so sultry. Tons of stars without the moon and the light show to the north is a great thing to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this wind gives us a Key-West-in-April style night and keeps the temps above 80 until midnight or later. Really? That's interesting mine started the day off at 80 and gained 4.5 degrees to the highest its been this summer at 84.5. You have much shade around it or just due to the overhead cirrus? I was thinking the same thing earlier. Though as nice as it is to be reminded of Key West it doesn't hold a flame toward actually being there.
