CoastalWx Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Thanks guys, wish I didn't have to work at 5am. Hopefully some rain this way later today...still unsure how much punch it will have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 You're not leafed out?!? Central VT is leafed out already. Not yet, leaf out is painfully slow here and above 800' it's mostly still tree's with tiny buds, a few bare tree's and a select few tree's that have leaves. Maybe the freeze on sunday morning slowed things down a bit: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 no way still lots of trees in bud stage, I would say 80% What's Coventry saying? That dude has good no-spin obs...but IIRC last year we had this discussion and many of us have slightly different ideas of what leafout is. IE if a tree has any green then its leafed out in Tolland, even if you can still see straight through the forest. I think of 100% leafout as you cant see through the trees because well there are leaves obstructing the line of sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Look to the south shortly...should be a nice band of summertime looking TCU moving up.I'll be on the lookout...I'm in CON. There's a few Cu to the SE, but that's it right now. One of them has that pileus/lenticular cap look above it, but there isn't much vertical extent so no TCU. Kinda strange to see that from a smaller Cu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same situation with regards to leaf-out in Bolton and Tolland near the coventry border as it is here above 800'. I had business in Northampton MA yesterday and it was nice to see near full leaf-out in alot of locations, but depressing to come back to somewhat bare tree's.

MainePhotog Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Even here on the coast, temp has rocketed to 68.7°F. My highest temp so far this year. Clouds are moving in, so may temper temps a bit. Happy birthday, Scott!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had business in Northampton MA yesterday and it was nice to see near full leaf-out in alot of locations, but depressing to come back to somewhat bare tree's. I was up at my sugarbush in Union over the weekend and there's a difference above 1000' as well. It looked as if most trees were just budding but it's a little beyond that. It's definitely running late but not unprecedented. Looks like some nice rain incoming...that might speed things up. Just to join the chorus - Happy Birthday Scott!
