Northeast radar flagged a 25 mile long by three mile deep cloud of spruce budworm moths drifting from Canada, with Mason warning a second cloud may arrive in two weeks. Spruce budworms damaged firs and spruces in Coos County this spring and summer, defoliating some trees by up to 6 percent and destroying about a third of next year's buds. Mason urged caution with Sevin insecticide due to honey bee hazards, and noted army worms and webworms spreading across New England, affecting the southern half of New Hampshire.
