dendrite Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Jesus...just had a good sized black bear go through the yard. We heard a branch break so I turned on the side light and watched it walk around the yard. Pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allenson Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 zomg now a grey fox. What the hell is going on...lol. Nice sighting--quite elusive and shy are the grey fox. Never saw 80 here yesterday either. Got up to 75 after the sun finally broke out around 3:00 yesterday afternoon. Even though it was a little muggy, I found it very nice under the clouds yesterday but they're gone now. Morning lows in the 40s in our forecast here for tomorrow and Tuesday AM. Rrefreshing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see grey foxes a few times a year, but that was my first bear that I've seen (although I know we've had them based on previous feeder damage). Strangely it's red foxes that have been elusive to me.

MaineJayhawk Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Hvy hvy Splashtown today. Pretty nice weather, though a fresh breeze made it feel a bit chilly when getting doused with water. Grade 4 sunburn en route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 High of 75 today... with very low humidity at times under 30%. Dew point got down to 41F so if we go calm we should be able to hit a pretty nice overnight low here in the mountain valleys. On the other side of Mansfield, the webcam from the BTV airport shows what a nice evening it is out there... a couple clouds over the Spine but that's about it.

Strangely it's red foxes that have been elusive to me. I think I remember you mentioning seeing them before. I've seen a few over the years but not many. I've seen quite a few in this condition though--as seen from my truck in Bradford, VT a couple winters ago (nice dirty crusty snow): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Had a delightful 75/53 yesterday, and low near 45 today, with at least one more 40s morning to come, maybe 2. I've never seen a grey, but there aren't many foxes near my place. Their larger cousins are quite numerous (and noisy), which doesn't bode well for Reynard. Last month saw a very happy red fox about a mile south of the homestead, happy because of the COC pheasant in its mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I couldn't dream up better weather... after a low of 47F last night (45F at nearby MVL), it looks like we've got a couple more mid/upper 40s nights and days that warm in the 70s and low 80s.

tamarack Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 73/44 yesterday with a cool breeze, and about 2F cooler this morning. Today should land July's first 10 days right on my 14-yr avg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 73/44 yesterday with a cool breeze, and about 2F cooler this morning. Today should land July's first 10 days right on my 14-yr avg. There's been a really strong north-south gradient in temperature this month. Central Park is +6.3F for July and you're right at average. Nights have only been dropping into the mid-upper 60s here in the northern suburbs, and I've had to use my AC to sleep quite frequently. I could see this gradient continuing with a negative NAO block parking a vortex over Hudson Bay, with a strong jet over Southeast Canada. Areas to the south of the gradient could end with a very warm July. We are clearly seeing how a -NAO in mid-summer leads to warm temperatures over the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, but cooler and more variable conditions in New England. With the short wavelengths, you have a ridge over the Southeast, troughing over NNE/Eastern Canada, and blocking over Greenland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Almost exactly halfway between 42 and 43 this morning, but closer to 43, with high of 77. That puts my July so far at +0.3. Counting my blessings - family in Illinois is enjoying upper 80s yest/today after a string of triples with dews climbing to near 80 (saw an HI of 128 one day last week) and are about +10 or so for July. They're working on scraping/painting the house, and since the place was built in the 1950s, my son-in-law has to wear protective clothing (cool of the morning only, when it's still under 90) when doing prep work. They have four kids six and younger, so the lead is an especially serious concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
