Thread Box:
Nice trees for riding under?
Thread started by OverTheHill at 08.15.08 - 6:39 am

While commuting home on hot SFValley summer days I've noticed, in addition to their grateful shade, the occasional small moisture drop apparently fall from under the cool shade of the Crepe-myrtle trees commonly used for street landscape in the west SFV. No way I thought, a moisture drop from a tree? No, must be overhead airplanes flushing their.... never mind. But a wiki search shows trees "sweat" in varying degrees a process called transpiration: "A fully grown tree may lose several hundred gallons (a few cubic meters) of water through its leaves on a hot, dry day."

Only noticed this under crepe-myrtles; evidently pines don't transpire as much. Haven't noticed it under any other type of tree.

Nice trees for bike path shade on hot days if true. Anyone else notice anything like this, or am I just...

 I have experienced the same, where its kind of a light mist (i have no idea what kind of trees.) I wondered what this was!

 Seems it has to be hot and dry and windless and as far as I've noticed, only under a crepe myrtle... like this big one at Owensmouth and Gault in Canoga Park. It kindly obliged this afternoon...

Yeah... I've felt the same thing and just like Graham... I thought it was mini beetle poop or something that was trickling down on me. Hey... is that your recumbent? Nice...

 that's why sitting under these kind of trees will be nice and refreshingly cooler on a hot day. yay trees!
