Love when those things overflow, some weird sense of pride...lol.

Just went past 2" for the total since Friday. Impulse after impulse dropping in all day, no crazy rates today, maybe like .35" or so since 7am.

It's definetly getting jungle-esque down here..weeds, grass, etc going crazy with just about 5" past 7-10 days.

Must be nice. Congrats.

Yeah you've been wetter down that way recently, but this was a real good soaker too. 

 

Judging by the PWS stations from today's rain they range from 1.15" at the base of the mountain to 0.57-0.59" in town. 

 

Also, in classic form although I had 1.74" down in town, a few miles away at the mountain almost doubled that.

3.19" total at the mountain vs. 1.74" in town...the difference in orographic lift and another event that shows why town may average 50" of liquid a year while the mountain gets 75" a few miles away.

Not sure if this was just a swirl connected to base of TCU or part of meso or what...just what I saw.

Eek, that storm that lifted out of MA just east of Rindge definitely had a little meso in there if I'm remembering right.

 

WTF with these NH lakes and their waterspouts!

I remember a decent cell just on the east slopes of the terrain there hung up on front. Local helicity FTW?

It went right over the warm front. I distinctly remember taking a strong interest in that cell near the MA border when it started to spin tighter. 

 

It was the kind of event where I was closer to pulling the trigger on more TORs than I was SVRs.

0.30 here yesterday, all from a 10 minute sultry burst. 

 

1.56 inches over the last 4 days, 3.19 inches for the month. 

 

After receiving only 2.70 inches for the entire month of June, the vegetation had a late summer look to it.  But the last four days of showers has turned everything a deep, rich, green.  It's beautiful.

Based upon the square footage of the lake and the current asphalt cost, it looks like that will cost me roughly $6,021,734,400.

 

Doesn't include the cost of fill or the permit.

 

Look for my gofundme page soon.

If we are going to be doing a climo changing project that money would be better well spent in excavating the top of the Spine in VT.  So tired of hearing about upslope.  I want a clear flat view to the Great Lakes.  I think my project will cost more but we could kill 2 birds with one stone and use the fill from the Greens and fill up Lake Winni

Dump some asphalt on the elephant ears and charge for off loading parking for Naswa.

Avid skiers are far more numerous than weather weenies and deal with this type of issue all the time; for most, the only option for altering their topography and climate is to move themselves to a new location.  That’s why so many of them end up in ski towns.  I’m sure a lot of them would love to have tried the landscaping route if it was at all practical, but financially (not to mention environmentally) it’s just not.  If the skiers in the Greens had their way, they’d probably be happy if the Adirondacks were moved out of the picture and the Great Lakes were extended right to Lake Champlain.  It would probably produce a massive increase in our moisture feed from the lakes for a more Hokkaido-like setup.  People looking for snow leeward of the Green Mountain Spine can at least be happy that the Greens aren’t as tall as they once were.  If they were potentially as tall as the Andes or Himalaya as some suggest, there could be a massive rain shadow depending on the prevailing weather patterns.

Haha that is a smart plan...use the Greens to fill the lake for Eek.

Your CAD might diminish though with the removal of the Greens...would make the CT River Valley the Champlain Valley so the warmth would be nearby. The Greens form that initial CAD barrier and by the time you get to your eastern position the cold is well entrenched.

 That would be something with the prolific upslope on the western side and then painful downsloping with LP's coming up the coast--some thin high clouds as the eastern side gets pounded.

 

Wonder what the normal seasonal snowfall/precip distribution would be?

excavate VT and drain Winni into it. No more upslope for them or downslope for us. Then we get LES too.

I've always thought about that... both sides would have the ability to get crushed and downsloped (as they do now, but it would be severe).  Like easterly flow on the front side of a coastal system would crush the east slopes, and then NW flow on the backside would destroy the west side.  Given the height of mountains like that, you'd almost have like partly cloudy skies on the leeward side even in a nor'easter.

 

Hard to say which side would get more precip throughout the year... probably the west side?  The East side would get the more prolific QPF producers which usually come on a SE lower level flow in these parts.
