dendrite Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I dunno. Yesterday was awesome Today was not perfect, but pretty good. Morning started a bit cloudy and clouded up now plus the td is going up But you like higher dews It was a little different up here compared to there. Today ended up a little cooler and sunnier. There was only a couple hours of midday mid-level altocumulus that came through. Otherwise it was mostly sunny from sunrise through now with a pleasant breeze. Dews were a little higher up here than yesterday, but they were still in the low/mid 50s all afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalcottWx Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Must suck to live in a place that's 64 and cloudy while the other places are 90 and sunny not too far away. Oh...that and the lack of snow, interesting severe, hot days. Man, a weather fan's worst nightmare. I do recall you saying how jealous you are of our living location a couple days ago. (a)Consistent hot days are no prize to people that receive them, you would know that if you lived in an area upon which that occurred. (b)I live a stones throw from one of the most popular beaches in Boston. I happen to love this current comfortable seabreeze at home. It is currently 70 and sunny. It is actually bearable to live without the a/c on and there is a beautiful ocean breeze coming throw all of my windows as we speak. I will trade in the conveniences of here over East Harwing-nowhere any day of the week. ©interesting severe occurs once or twice and sometimes never in SNE. Congratulations on your prize I suppose. (d)sometimes there are elevation winters and sometimes there as coast winters. I will take my blizzard of 78's and boxing day blizzards over your nickel dime events when we miss a few inches due to warmer ocean air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The guys are hunkered down at 14k. Occasional breaks allow them to acclimate by climbing up above 14k for a ski back to camp. Despite it being mild for the mountain they are enduring full on Winter weather conditions. They haven't seen temps above 0 for days. Truly a test of will. A planned push for the summit later this week/weekend may be delayed. Even marginally sketchy weather can be fatal. Low vis, a zig when you should have zagged could mean a several thousand foot plunge. So jealous.

It's tough to fully wake up in winter when it's dark until 7a. There's a different way of thinking in GC I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherMA Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 In the summer I like to sleep until 10-11 (No Kevin I'm not sleeping half the day away) and most of the time I have to run the AC because there's too much noise by 7 or 8am. That usually works though as not too much light is let it in so that's not a problem. Sometimes I wish I could run on 3 hours sleep though...lol. I love being up till 2-3am and having after about 1030-11 completely to myself, but I also love summer mornings...usually 60s and calm. Can't have both.

Logan11 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I have shades in the bedroom... Not perfect though as the light still leaks in, but ok. I was particularly annoyed today because I took refuge downstairs in the living room where there is central a/c these last two nights. No decent shades on these windows. Unfortunately the central a/c in this house doesn't do much upstairs. I make due with the fan and decent breezes most of the time, but this is tree pollen hell season and I can't open windows. I guess all of the above partially explains my disdain for May into June. LOL I also don't particularly enjoy cutting the lawn every 5 to 7 days. Yeah exactly. I like the mornings...but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
