iceman56 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 A beautiful sunny 48 degrees this morning in Bretton Woods, NH. A couple of maples with some red branches already. Big diurnal range here today with high forecast into the low 80's. Looks like the 2nd half of my vacation week goes in the crapper. Off to summit MTW...

Some trees always get stressed. Obviously some years are worse than others. The fact that some trees have a little color tells you it is stress from something. It ain't because of Fall.

Baroclinic Zone Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Nice Bob look forward to the TAN radiating days sub zero. Seriously. Been about a year and a half since I've seen sub zero. Right now I could use the rain. The storms the other day split the uprights and missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin probably lost most of his hair from stressful winter forecasting scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Yeah, birch seem to be the first trees, I've noticed, to drop leaves in dry conditions. We have a 35 stand of 40 foot white birches at work in front of the building. Every year they drop leaves in mid summer and every year someone tells me they are drought stricken. It's too funny because there is a lawn irrigation system that waters them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Lots of folks in sweatshirts last night at IJD playoffs and this morning when I went out for coffee. 55/ 52 will do that. Fall starts Sept 21 in case you forgot. Not all of fall is in Nov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eekuasepinniW Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 What would be the stress? Plenty of rain up there Work hours? Mortgage.? Pregnant wife? Not everywhere.Thunderstorm downpours with excessive runoff and light rains with like .30" do little to get water to the roots of a tree. Not to mention insects and disease are just as capable of causing premature leaf drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 But, the swamp dews will make an appearance later tomorrow and Thursday. Might stick around for the period near the south coast depending on the low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 We have a 35 stand of 40 foot white birches at work in front of the building. Every year they drop leaves in mid summer and every year someone tells me they are drought stricken. It's too funny because there is a lawn irrigation system that waters them too. Birches, especially white birch, seem to shed some yellow and brown leaves every August, though dryness also seems to increase the early drop. By mid-August, the red maples on swampy sites will be showing some significant color regardless of temperature - it's just what they do around here. Early month is running almost +5 for MBY, though today will finish about -2 and drop the 8/1-7 departure closer to +4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
