While we’re at it, it would also be important to consider what if any impacts the recent i.e last 30 years of commercial timber management regimes in the far north has played here in terms of broad ecosystem impacts. Prior to the mid 80s nobody was cutting wood that far north into the Canadian Shield, that’s changed. Look at google earth, they’re cutting wood right up into the sub arctic. Point is, there are so many factors to consider. I don’t agree with attributing this to CC with blanket statements, as many have done. Who knows, maybe CC is the dominant driver, but we just can’t say that with certainty right now, there are too many other variables to consider. 

The Google Earth I have is dated 2006, some 2005 (April that year, so everything is white).  I'm sure the cutting has expanded.  The dominant tree there is black spruce, which holds cones and some seed for 10-20 years.  As long as no fires run thru the slash to kill black spruce germinants, the forest will return, though on the skinny soils of the Laurentian Shield it may take 100 years to produce a spruce 6-7" in diameter.

One quick downpour a week ago Friday and not a drop since. Bone dry out there. Watering new grass areas and garden daily again . When does the wet pattern start?

Looking at precip maps last 4 weeks and then current radar. It def shows overall the haves and the have nots

This tells the tale of sun vs. clouds well.  https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=subregional-New_England-02-200-0-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

Seabreeze cleared out the clouds all along the coast for a glorious afternoon, while inland was stuck under convective clouds.  First day without measurable precip here in over a week.

Stations around town ranging from 0.15 - 0.67" depending on who got hit best.  Very localized downpours at times.

Basically sums up the past week.  Varying layers of clouds, passing showers, temps in the 50s.  What a start to June.

It’s early but this summer better start summering or it just might not at all.
