Powder skis (115 waist) in the east are best for when 10-14" falls on bare ground, keeps you up above the rocks lol. I like 95-100mm for a daily driver, especially in bumps.

For hockey fans, Glendale opting out of arena lease after this season. Let's go Nordiques! https://theathletic.com/2778340/2021/08/19/point-of-no-return-glendale-to-boot-coyotes-from-gila-river-arena-after-2021-22-season/

All about the clicks and views. A 927mb looking buzzsaw on the 3km will get peoples' attention.

This is boggling my mind. Every model keeps it so compact and not taking on ET features. If it was moving 30+ mph from off the Carolinas to SNE I could see it, but being a slow mover and not taking on ET characteristics makes me think models are clueless.

NAM doing NAM things. 12z 975mb through 12z Sat vs. 992mb on the 6z.

This is what I'm watching. Tonight's updates will have people panicking or weenies saying "it can still ______."

Was surprised to see this as well. Will be going down the rabbit-hole reading about ET transitions this morning.

Seeing a couple WU stations west of you reporting 4.5"+. You'll be there soon.

Winds really picking up. Neighbors will be calling a tree service. There is an 80' dead oak that snapped about 30' up and the remainder is resting on another tree. It rolls off and about 20' of it is on their roof.

Flooding and uprooting incoming.

Even farther north in Maine, the snowstorm's effects remained disastrous; following its passage, a 60 acres (240,000 m2) timber lot at Thomaston was nearly entirely uprooted, clearing a massive forested area and making towns from great distances away, previously obstructed, suddenly visible.[19] The effect of the storm was so pronounced that, according to Sidney Perley, "people felt as if they were in a strange place".[27] The storm was particularly severe on the Atlantic coast, especially in Kennebec, Wiscaset, Berwick, Kittery, and York, causing moderate destruction and killing several cattle. However, at Portland, the hurricane was less severe and its impact was minimal.[2]

The social media hype train is running so fast by tomorrow night it will be another Snowicane of 1804.

Henri is making the "prom night promise".

If seals can get up the CT River to Holyoke, so can surge lol https://www.westernmassnews.com/news/seal-sighted-along-connecticut-river-in-holyoke/article_bbe401f6-7dbd-11e9-9fcb-f7f5bdf558aa.html

Someone needs to sacrifice a chicken. Is Kevin Costner hammered for this "Field of Dreams" game interview? Doesn't sound right.

Never seen clouds moving in so fast.

Was hoping you would get it too. Absolutely incredible. Better than the derecho.

Memorable storm to say the least. Definitely came in with a 50+ gust. Watched some kayaks and paddleboards get blown off car tops and docks on the pond. Leaves, limbs, and trees down everywhere. Four trees down in the road on the 5 minute drive home.

Have a 16' "bass boat" for the Quabbin. Complete rebuilt from just the hull. Has a 20hp Mariner and does low 20s. Have dual 7" Garmins and 24v 70lbs Minn Kota with the co-pilot system. If you are looking for a Quabbin boat look for the older 80s hulls, 0* rise and lighter hulls so great in rougher water and quick. I could put a 25hp 4-stroke on for the Q but just love the older two-strokes. I might get it washed again in September to fish the last month of the Q, we'll see. Drop-shotting smallies in 30-50' this time of year gets boring.

If you ever want to head out on one of the lakes in Brim/Brookfield just let me know!

Been having too much fun fishing other ponds lately to head back to the Quabbin (never thought I'd say that). Hit Quaboag again the other day and had about a half dozen largies in the 4 lbs range along with about a dozen others. Forgot how much I missed throwing jigs in heavy grass and winching them out.

I want to see Houck in the pen if they can't keep him in the rotation. No reason to be moving him in and out.
