Oh 100%. It is what it is. We are lucky and can afford it, it’s just more than I’d like.

I’m so screwed this winter. Heat is needed almost every morning at this point even with a 62-63 set point.

31F with solid frost again. This weather on the holiday weekend, going to be a gong-show in the leaf peeping spots.

That was us last week, ha. Evaporational cooling is awesome.

That’s the next priority, as much as the wife thinks buying new furniture is, ha.

Passing showers today.

Sorry for not responding earlier dude. My wife and I made some moves this summer and we were at 750ft in Stowe Village... but we finally cashed in on the location, sold our townhome/condo for 4 times what we paid for it back in 2012 and rolled that equity into a house about 10 minutes outside the village. We were ready to leave the village. We are now only 10 minutes away in a neighboring valley at 1,100ft tucked in closer to the Spine. With higher terrain on three sides of us, we seem to radiate quite well (multiple frosts so far), but I will say the daytime temps don't seem to get up nearly as much as the larger valley from the Village out towards the ASOS. We'll see how the winter goes, but I'm interested to see what the differences are compared to over in the village.

At least someone is getting some damage these days.

Jealous, heat’s been on a few times now.

30F at 3,600ft and 41F at 1,500ft… 45F here with gusty winds.

The NW wind is crazy this evening. House shaking gusts at times.

This has to be the most NNE thing ever, haha. Classic. Recorded the first snowflakes on Mansfield today and first graupel at home.

We snow, legit flakes as this squall moved through at 3,600ft. Temp 35F.

Ha, right. It must be getting cold upstairs because we’ve seen more frozen cores in this. Summits are in the 30s now. The old low 50s but with dry low levels… gets real gusty, then rain before 90 seconds of frozen and back to rain before ending.

First frozen of the season. Heavy graupel. Completely frozen at home in this core.
