Henri was devastating around here… still picking up the pieces to this day. IIRC, 1992 was well below normal for ACE, but the folks in south Florida might think otherwise.

The hatched hornets do something that leads to the 'hornet's nest paper'. As more eggs get laid hatched, the nest gets larger and larger. Ultimately, there are about 750 hornets in the nest. Seems reasonable, though I still doubt that the queen carries those few eggs thru hibernation. Probably holds sperm thru that time and develops the eggs in the spring, perhaps while she's building the starter nest.. And the hornets are basically doing what a groundwood paper mill does, on a slightly smaller scale - grinding wood down to the individual fibers then allowing it to dry as it's applied to the nest. Biggest difference (other than scale) is that the paper mill mix is 99% water when it hits the Fourdrinier (fast-moving screen that begins the water-extraction process) while the hornet mix never has nearly as much water.

At the same time the band of heavy stuff is moving north much more quickly, increasing its persistence over a particular locale. Not a drop yet here, just cloudy, humid and breezy. P&C forecast adds up to <1" here while the GYX map has us in the 2-3" color. Computers. Looking more and more like this will be my 2nd September of 24 without a frost. The 1st, 2011, had a month minimum of 33. Its first frost came Oct 6 and was a 25° hard freeze. So far this month the bottom is 38. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Out of nowhere the sun just burst forth... Back in now, but the satellite shows rather abrupt thinning inside this tube of shits - ...may actually salvage a late afternoon in the relative sense. Meanwhile, if you're driving west on the Pike, you go from murk skies and probably residual road spray, to zero cloud open sky sun over the span of 1.5 miles or something. All of western CT and western Mass are cloudless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 You guys are whacked if you think dews are over. Yeah maybe no more 88/70 but plenty of 77/67 in our future.
