Good Morning,
And just like that, we have reached the last day in June. Certainly feels like one of those “blink and you missed it” type of months. Perhaps because the mountain has been an absolute beehive of activity day-to-day that our dedicated and inspiring crew has had little time to think about anything else. The current forecast has contributed to a somewhat more subdued summit compared to the four weekends prior, but with the major American holiday approaching, there are plenty of busy days and weeks still to come. Despite their threats, the rain never quite materialized over the mountain yesterday, save for a handful of brief mists and sprinkles throughout the day. The clouds held their stranglehold of the crest with only occasional glimpses of sunshine and views into the valley. When that bright orb did break through, one sure could feel the heat though. Clouds are clinging to the slopes this morning, swirling in and out, while storms slowly work their way across the state toward our direction. By this afternoon, we could start hearing some rumbles and receiving some liquid precip. Day hikers who are quick on their feet should be able to make their treks up and down safely this morning without much fear in the way of getting wet. Otherwise anyone anticipating a long day spent in the outdoors needs to come prepared with the right clothes and gear for some potentially nasty weather. Even small hail is being mentioned by forecasters. Temps will be toasty once again today as we should see the upper 60s. Once we get past today, the first couple days of July look sunny and beautiful. There might even be a brief cool down, at least in our neck of the woods! Have a great day.
