DomNH Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 1 hour ago, powderfreak said: Nice! The BTV bike trail along the lake is sweet. Some of the best views in New England with the Adirondacks rising above the Lake on the western side. Best sunsets in New England by far...hopefully you're down by the lake for that this evening. If you bike far enough you can get out on the Colchester Causeway. The Causeway is connected to the BTV bike path but it is probably the coolest rec path in New England. Out in the middle of the Lake with nothing around. That looks fantastic. We made it to Colchester but didn't go that far. Had we known that existed we probably would've kept going. The trail was beautiful. Next time we have to come in season and get out on the lake in some kayaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimetree Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Rogue gust took down the patio table and busted the sun umbrella. Not sure what the speed was but it came out of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal take is that Sunshine>Heady, but after trying some Trillium brews last weekend I think those win overall. They're both great but I agree Sip is better.

Any Trillium is far better than both and Treehouse is at the top. You're still in the entry level of IPA's. We all follow the same progressuon. You'll see.

moneypitmike Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Driving home from Maine yesterday afternoon it looked like a sizeable dead tree had come down at least partially onto Route 2 out toward Hubb's place. We topped at 74* here during the day but it was into the 60's by the time I got home at 7:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 That wind got intense for a time. I see peak winds were near 35-40kts, but we had one gust that really caught my attention and made me bring my son inside after some branches start falling. That was definitely one of the strongest this year. I did not expect that. Off of 48.7 for the low. 49.6 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time it blew through here I just thought it was an anamoulous microscale phenomenon. We had 25-35 mph gusts for about 45 minutes with one gust that was of the "oh $hit" variety. Seeing the comments here, it looks like the same sequence of events affected much of the region as the BD pushed south yesterday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I said this before, I'll say it again -- if this is the weather one should expect after a BD in April, no one would ever complain. Already past 50, with clear skies. Spring sun ftw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
