I'll have to take note if there's a long, bright white stripe down its back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High of 70F today under full sunshine is impressive for mid-August. Already back to mid-60s as the shadows grow. We'll probably wish we had these days back when it's torching in Sept/Oct.

I'd take the BML obs though this afternoon... hours of 70/42 obs which is an epic September day. Already clear and calm in the mountain valleys, heck BML lost 10F in just the last hour as they are down to 56F. Its 59F here, wonder how low we can go. If the "afternoon dewpoint rule" works, it'll be low to mid 40s...maybe SLK sniffs upper 30s? SLK is really only 2-3 weeks away from frost potential, lol. I just saw spots like BDL and TAN got well into the mid-80s with highs of 86F....with ORH at 79F.... which surprised me given the air mass up here. I figured ORH would be mid-70s and BDL barely into the low 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Total non-sequitor, but does anyone know what Boston's official peak depth was in Feb '15? I remember it was something like 36-37" after that multi-day beast, but was wondering if we topped it with the mid-level magic storm? Also wondering what the peak depth was down around Weymouth/Milton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radarman Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Plague of caterpillars continues here, now featuring the Hickory Tussock. And while they're far less abundant and damaging, you don't want to touch one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the damage on 25B. Meanwhile 2 miles from there, no sign of anything near where we are. I also noticed Rt 109 is cleaned up and not a ton of debris left. You do see uprooted pines here and there on the way to Wolfeboro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
