If the fungus doesn't kill them this year there are going to be massive amounts of them. Look at the egg mass increase. The red areas are the aerial survey defoliated acres. Pretty scary driving around and seeing all these massive dead oaks lining roads and near powerlines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty scary driving around and seeing all these massive dead oaks lining roads and near powerlines I’ve seen it so localized in town that one strip of 1-2 houses are bare and next 2 still some leaves . Even cases where one or 2 oaks in a yard bare, but other oaks in same yard not hit hard. Parts of town wiped out last 2 years while others minimal damage. Gotta be due to the wind distribution and where it blows them. I find it fascinating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more eager to see sun than leaves. Alas, heavy overcast the entire trip. Warm though, car was reading 64* as I passed the sign welcoming me to the Blue.

It's not, my red Maple and dogwoods still bare and most Oaks only have Catkin's. The freeze last week really slowed the leafout. Only a few trees are fully leafed out. 0% advancement of the foliage on my oaks in one week since the freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Looks like drier air is trying to back in from SW ME to at least erode some of the lower clouds...especially E NH. Maybe we can get some breaks of thinner overcast to let the temp creep toward 60F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarloaf1989 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 0.34 here overnight, currently 55F. Looks like more below normal temperatures here midweek and beyond. Hopefully we get the sunshine and 60's / 70's early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite deep blue skies, looks a bit hazy or some high moisture...but we'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violently throwing things at the wall inside the house as 2-5" of sand falls while the meso models 12 hours ago head-faked a 12-18" event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
