DHTWN REMINDER:
There’s a lot of to be distraught about these days, but life goes on, keeps moving, flowing, and willing itself onward. We’re a manifestation and part of that life force, but it goes way beyond us, and we’re lucky to be a part of it. Even if things aren’t going well, there’s always a chance things might improve. If you’re struggling, I hope things go better for you today, and stay open to the chance that they will – they just might.

MORNING DISCUSSION
Good morning everybody, anyone get frost this morning? I saw some upper 20s in southwest NH, and lots of low to mid 30s. Where relative humidities were in the mid 80s to upper 90s in terms of percentages, I’m sure frost formed, so let me know if you got some, hope you got any tender morsels protected.
We will rebound well today, rising through the 60s and into the low 70s under mostly sunny but hazy skies at times as smoke from Canadian wildfires makes its undulating crazy path through the north of Canada down through Hudson Bay and into New England.
High pressure is pressing in from the west and will get south of us tomorrow, which will continue the warming trend through the end of the week into Saturday.
We could see a spot shower between Thursday and Saturday, and possibly an isolated thunderstorm Friday, but we will be mostly dry through the period and some of us will crest 80º by Friday (see above zones and nutshell sections for temps etc).
A wave moves through Saturday and bring a frontal boundary through as well, which should cool us down into the 65-70º range for Sunday and Monday, with warmer 70s expected by the middle of next week when our next real rain chance exists.
Otherwise, it’s mostly dry, mostly sunny, mostly calm wind, and mostly pollen-y.
I hope you have a great day and that things go your way!
BE KIND
“Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you’ve got a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies: Goddamn it, you’ve got to be kind.”
