For the second day in a row we have reached the 80’s here in Island Pond. Fortunately there is a nice breeze to help keep it feeling a little cooler. Even Coles Pond, at over 2000 ft of elevation if flirting with the 80 degree mark. We are expecting thunder storms later today and showers for the rest of the week. Early indications show a great weekend with temps in the 70’s on Saturday and low 80’s for Sunday.

Beautiful Weather 5/14/14
The weather over the past seval days has been beautiful throughout the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. We’ve seen some clouds and showers, but we’ve also has a fair amount of sun. Temperatures have been in the 60’s and 70’s. It’s currently 73° here in Island Pond as I write this post. The forecast is calling for tomorrow, Friday, to be warm but mostly cloudy before cooler weather and rain for the weekend. The trees are starting to leaf out here in IP, and the lawns are starting to green up. All of the snow is gone here in town, but I did see a few small piles beside the road on Tuesday on the way to Newark Pond.
We are only a little over a week away from the unofficial start of summer, Memorial Day weekend. .
I also wanted to mention that I setup a twitter account to make it easier to do weather updates that don’t contain enough content for a blog post. You can find it at: @nekwx
