You need a countdown clock in your signature section. Not that anyone is counting.

Here is a webcam in Hamden, in case it is heading that way: https://www.see.cam/us/ct/hamden/highwood-historical-scsu-route-10-foot-bridge

I don't know if they still do but they used to run a half price day for locals on Father's Day weekend.

Not really uncommon to have furnaces in NNE in September. I usually run my furnace at least once in September. No need yet but most windows got closed last night and I had the heat on in the car for a good chunk of the commute today.

What is the plant? Is it a type of Canna?

In response to this model run, Eversource has cut power to SE CT customers for the next 4 hours so they can practice for not having power for a week.

Vermont did something along those lines with the economic crisis 10 years ago. State employees making over 60K took a 5% cut. Those under got a lesser cut- 3% I think,

May want to edit your details lest someone with a permit reads this.

I am curious how they could tell. With so many people coming and then leaving in the subsequent outbreaks could be anywhere, even along the route of travel. Sturgis itself has 6k people (IIRC) so if they got hit you could see it but if my dog's vet from RI goes out there,, gets it, stops in Indiana on the way home, gives it to hotel worker, and then spreads it to friends in RI- who announces the contact tracing to show it had an effect.

Pouring here in Rutland, for a drought it has been raining a lot here (though missing close by)

I misread this at first as "I've always loved Kevin's poetry" and quickly thought of "Ode to Dews," "A Few Lines Above a Downed Eversource Line" and "To Fescue my love" His classic remains: "I went out in the mornings dews To escape the suppression news My sweet sweet lawn Looks most lovely by the soft light of dawn But an Eversource line was down Laying near my remaining straight edged snow mound the 'lectricity sizzled and fried My poor fescue till it died revealing a brown straight streak like a turd left by a bruin in the land of Powderfreak." I am jealous as Kev's lawn when fried still looks better than mine at its best.

Do you have any problems with the water from the downspout of the gutter running off into the pool?

Nice crisp 48f to start the day this morning. (that was the temp at 5:45am, I didn't bother to look if it was cooler before that) Felt nice walking around the garden.

50 at the house this morning was a nice way to wake up. I just got caught in a downpour walking back through town- first time wearing this suit too. Fortunately I had a spare suit and an emergency shirt at the office.

Looking at your Nest cam, it looks as if the land slopes down and away from you. Is that correct? If so that would allow the colder air to drain away from you as the night settles in. We have had a similar temp pattern at our current house and the last one as well,

Can you see all the way south to Shaftsbury, VT?

Nice to see you other "back broken" folks joining the party.

Well that is quite the line of storms firing up in NY

70 here after an evening shower. No need to turn on the heat tonight..

"They said brunch started at 7 am but why is there no sign of the omelet station?"

This bear on the porch at the Mount Washington Hotel is one of the greatest photos I have seen in recent years. It was last year or the year before.

Do you get moths and other bugs attracted to the screen?
