Cool Mornings

The past several mornings have been on the chilly side throughout the NEK of VT. This mornings low of 40.5 F was the coldest we’ve had here in Island Pond since June 22 when the temperature dropped to 38 degrees. On the the plus side the last few days have been beautiful with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s. The NWS forecast is calling for increasing clouds tonight with showers tomorrow. After the showers move through more cool air is on the way. Highs on Friday will only be in the low 60s throughout the Northeast Kingdom. We may even see a few 50s for highs in the cooler places like Coles Pond and other locations at elevation. Saturday morning will probably have most locations in the 30s. I wouldn’t be surprised to see scattered frost in some of the sheltered valleys.

I’ll end this post with a photo of the Mt Washington Hotel that I took yesterday while in NH.

Back to a Fall feel

After several warm summer days in the NEK we are back to cooler weather. Today has only warmed up to 63° so far. In Island Pond, and I doubt it will get much higher today. Tonight’s lows are forecast to be in the 40s to low 50s throughout the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.  Tomorrow should rebound to the mid 60s to low 70s The upcoming Labor Day weekend doesn’t look to be a complete washout,  but will be unsettled with a chance of showers.

Hard to believe it’s Labor Day already. In just 4 more weeks the region should be ablaze in near peek foliage. As you can see in our webcam image below, we even have a few birch leaves dropping on the lawn in the foreground.

Summer returns to the NEK

After a long stretch of fall like weather,  summer has returned to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.  The high temperature so far today,  Sunday, is 78° in Island Pond, VT.  Coupled with a nice breeze, it’s a beautiful day to be outside and enjoy all that the region has to offer.

Fair weather clouds over the NEK

This week’s forecast is calling for more summer weather with highs in the 70s and maybe even a few lower 80s in some spots in the NEK. Get out there and enjoy it as fall is fast approaching. There was even snow falling in the mountains of Montana this weekend.  As you can see in the following photo taken this afternoon in our yard in Island Pond,  fall will be here before long.
