Weekend not what was expected

The forecast for this past weekend here in the NEK was a little off. We did see some sunshine on both Saturday and Sunday,  but not until later in the afternoon on both days. Temperatures were also cooler than expected.  On Sunday we only managed to get up to a high of 67° here in Island Pond. With gusty winds added in it felt more like fall than it did mid June.

Today iis absolutely beautiful though!  The day started on the cool side with a morning low of 41°. However,  thanks to the abundant sunshine the temps quickly rebounded. We are expecting to see the temperature top out in the 70’s throughout the area today.  The rest of the week looks summer like with temps in the 70’s with a few low 80’s in some spots.

Beautiful weekend in the NEK

It’s hard to get much better weather than we had over the past weekend in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.  On Saturday we had mostly sunny skies with temperatures in the mid 70’s with just enough of a breeze to keep the black flies and mosquitos at bay. Temps quickly fell back through the 60’s – 50’s soon after the sun went down. Sunday was a little warmer with temperatures reaching the upper 70’s to low to mid 80’s throughout the region. We really couldn’t have asked for a better weekend to enjoy the outdoors in Island Pond, VT!

On aanother note,  I’m going to try to adjust the webcam today to show a little more of the sky. Now that the leaves are on the trees it’s hard to see on the camera if the skies are blue, or if it’s cloudy.

Decent day in NEK

Today turned out to be nicer than I had expected in Island Pond, and the rest of the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.  Clouds did win out late in the day, but the sun was out most of the day, with temps in the low to mid 70’s. As this map shows, the same can not be said to our east in NH and western ME where it was 10°-15° cooler at 6pm.
