It doesn’t even look like rain, just cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 This may go down as the worst severe season we've ever had. This is horrific...it sucks. Reminds me of like 2003 and 2009 where all the big events happened in NY/PA and we got screwed. Although...MA has had some decent action...can't let backyard-ism get to me but I haven't even had anything to chase ughhhhhhh 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be cool if we could have a way to bring water to a lawn or garden. Maybe some type of metal pipe with a valve we could turn. Then a flexible tube that we could attach it to and move. let’s get some top people of this stat! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two rain barrels, but need to get the downspouts into them and establish some sport of pumping mechanism. My problem for my lawn, is that I am on ledge and the soil stinks. So frequent rains help. Last year was great until about July. This year has been ok, but I've dodged a lot of the bigger rains. Just enough for most plants to be happy for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent way too much money trying to reclaim the lawn but it was basically useless. I gave up and just treat for bugs. It is what it is. I turned lawn into gardens as much as possible.

Despite how dry it's been recently....cool temps and just enough rains have helped. It's those periods of real hot weather with no rains for days that hurts.

tamarack Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 1 hour ago, CoastalWx said: I feel him on the gardening/lawn stuff despite him being a bit over the top. Agree. Water table is still fine, even though the nearby Sandy River is running well below 25th percentile. It's the top layer of soil that's dry, and that's a pain for gardeners like me who began planting in mid-late May, so the tiny plants haven't reached far below that dusty top 2". (And given the 27 here on June 1, very glad I delayed.) Seems like it's often dry when the garden is started here, just like it always turned cold and windy when I started the garden in Fort Kent. The one year I held off putting out tomatoes and peppers until June's 2nd weekend it snowed on 6/9. Always an adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Has anyone been using NBM MOS at all? Or does anyone know if it runs extended like the GFSx? From what I can find I don't see anything. But MOS is freaking awful...want to see if NBM is any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
