eekuasepinniW Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I wonder if Gronk pissed on the hail damaged magnolia that night to finish it off? The magnolia shrugged off the hail like a champ. For correct trolling, use the baby lantana plants that were so badly butchered that I ended up removing and replacing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Finally got myself a weather station; the Davis was a bit too much at this time, so I settled on the AcuRite PRO. Got very good reviews, and I'm happy with it so far though I need a better spot for it - it's very sheltered from the wind where it is. Just hooked it up today so I have little history on it.

There are lots of cams out there now, probably for less money. I really like having a cam so I can see what's going on when I'm not home and other board members can view too.

wxeyeNH Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Well finally looks like a good T storm day. Solid line heading into New England, high dews and should get in here before sunlight wanes. We should all get into the action with at least a good heavy rain. Webcam with timelapse all set too go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we get something decent rainwise. Seems like a quick moving front, so maybe 0.25" depending on location. That's not going to do much for the lawns and gardens. Sick of one day of showers then nothing for another week. We're pushing a year now with this semi-dry pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Some heavy rain in Rangeley about 1 PM - actually to the west in Oquossuc along Mooselook Lake. Roads in town were dry. After several hours in the woods feeding the deerflies, we were spared a soaking by just a few minutes. Not often that it works out that well.

Needed twice the precip, but sure beats the usual miss/graze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year we had 5.5" in June then something in July (have to look it up). In comparison, this summer is why drier so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Lava, 2.68" for June of which most feel in one storm early in the month. 1" for the first half of June. 2 pictures of my pond, first from the begining of growing season this spring and one from today, its gone! We have had just enough nickel and dime rainfalls to keep the surface damp enough for the grass to stay green. All the foreground grass in the attached picture has been watered with our sprinklers so its holding its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaineJayhawk Posted July 17, 2016 Author Share Posted July 17, 2016 Well, this is something of a surprise. I thought it was supposed to be another sun-filled day, turns out clouds and rain are now in the forecast. Glad I did my outdoor funning yesterday.
