ORH hit 78F...so I guess I could see the davis in the grass with a little extra elevation being 75F. Funny you point out AFN...I'm not sure if you noticed, but they have had a step change recently in their temps...much much warmer than they used to report. They are consistently coming in like 3F warmer than ORH on max temps in a homogeneous atmosphere and that hardly ever used to happen. Either their ASOS is going out of whack or something was altered at/near the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...over the past few months there were a few times where I glanced at regional temps and AFN seemed strangely warm. Looks like the step was around Feb/Mar this year?

The ASOS site was shifted and suddenly they didn't cool off as much and some of their maxes were higher too. 79.7°F here for the max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have an exciting PD day Friday...zzzzzzz How is it going? (and we have Good Friday off...) I've never heard of a Promethean board....it looks similar to SMART technology, however. I really like mine, we did a math game with exponents where they had to choose the right answers to deflect alien bombs that were being aimed at the Earth. The kids loved it! I also do a lot of slideshows and video clips from my Mac that I was given for school. I've rarely had two days off for Rosh Hashannah and another day for Yom Kippur. This is a great treat. We do most of our PDs afterschool and doing the summers, and we get paid $42/hour for attending them. We have a few that are integrated into the school calendar, but most are during off-hours and are for extra compensation. We've had some good ones lately....I was sent to a workshop of integrating robotics into the science curriculum, and I did another one where we worked on selecting texts for ELA to align to the Common Core learning standards. I am really liking this school so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow them closely...but it would seem the radiating spots have done a bit cooler recently since we had some dry airmasses in here. MPV is a good cool site for an ASOS...it's on an elevated bench at 1200ft that runs cool during the day AND tends to radiate. We usually have lower mins here at MVL as we radiate nicely at 700-800ft between two large ridgelines of 3000-4000+...but our highs are always 3F (sometimes 5F) higher than MPV due to their higher elevation and I think we may see some compressional heating between the mountains...which is why I'm always talking about high diurnal spreads. We cool off at night moreso than other areas but on the flip side get hotter during the day, usually with lower dewpoints locally due to compressional heating drying the air.

powderfreak Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 First mention of frost in my forecast for 800ft in the valley... Sunday and Monday mornings look chilly. Zone forecast has mid-30s with patchy frost and so does the point 'n click. Another step towards winter is seeing that "patchy frost" in the forecast, haha.

See Scott below. Nothing more needed. I had to run into downtown Greenfield at 2:00p.m. I got out of my car at the hospital there and the heat felt pretty strong. Was happy to get back into the hills. KPIT is usally 5-7* cooler than greenfield on the highs, 3-4" cooler than Shelburne falls.
