Peak foliage in Franconia Notch, NH yesterday.

@jphayes21 @BEisenhart 8.6 mph is a 7:00 pace, which is roughly a 1:32 half or a 3:04 full. Not even in the same ballpark as the world record. A lot of runners and even a lot of women can run that pace below their lactate threshold.

@arianaelena97 Congrats!

@Pegasus_Ruler @Moth_In_Stars It's also deeply infantilizing and probably not the greatest long-term solution.

@BoCamaro The average WNBA player is only like 6" shorter than the average NBA player. I think the bigger problem with lowering the hoop is that they've played on a 10' rim their whole life and adjusting their muscle memory now would be impossible.

@MaxUrus254 @schweinbeck They do. They just end up a jumble of text that doesn't guide the eye anywhere obvious. Kind of defeats the point of a graphic.

@TurtlesAnon @michaeloburns He's green for an amazing reason

@paulrlma @benoistsabrqms Pretty good at lacrosse, hockey, and wrestling too.

@paulrlma @benoistsabrqms The Ivy League is ranked 5th after the Power 4 *without* giving athletic scholarships. They would not be there if they imposed strict academic requirements on recruited athletes.

[Jihan B. @PC8923]

@jacklyn_tyburk @itsmrstealyour_ Jordy Frahm is 23.

[Jihan B. @PC8923]

@paulrlma @benoistsabrqms Supposedly Ivies have high academic standards for recruited athletes but I go to an Ivy and I have yet to see this. They're all bricks. The Ivy League would not be as successful an athletic conference as it is if it truly imposed strict academic requirements.

@tknep3 @NycStormChaser C is the best answer cause you get all of the Whites plus N VT and the southernmost Maine 4,000-footers and also Acadia.

May 23, 2025 vs. May 30, 2026 at Hermit Lake. As I noted last year, late May snowstorms certainly aren't rare in the Whites, but two years in a row is pretty crazy!

[Jihan B. @PC8923]

Beautiful morning earlier in the Whites after 6" of fresh snow overnight. Snowline was the sharpest I've ever seen, straight from summer to winter!

[Jihan B. @PC8923]

@ericfisher Snow amounts last year (L) and this year (R) in the Whites looked nearly identical! Makes sense there would be a much bigger discrepancy in Boston compared to the Whites given last year was a nor'easter and this year was a clipper.

[Jihan B. @PC8923]

@arianaelena97 Pretty much my exact sentiment these past couple of weeks. It's either 80° and you're dying or it's 40° and you're chilly. The things I would do to get just one week of temps in the 60s. Surely not that much to ask of spring.

Winter is back above 3,500 ft in the White Mountains!
