  1. Had a window seat at Red Rose on Main Street when it went though and posted about the hail. just about everone in the restaurant was looking out the windows when it was whipping, it was quite exciting for a minute or two, there was quite a bit of foliage flying around from the wind and hail. Had a few route detours due to downed trees and emergency vehicle calls we had to navigate on way back from dinner.
  2. Wiz was right- Springfield rocked while he’s at Fenway
  3. Street trees down in downtown Springfield blocking streets
  4. currently 77/75 in the 'hood, not a good day to work outside if you don't like being drenched in sweat
  5. Last year we stayed down by Killington in Gifford Woods. This year the kids wanted to check out the White Mtns. but NH camping options really lag Vermont in both quantity and quality, so picked a location where we could get there within about an hour's drive, and still be within easy reach of Burlington, which is always on my list when in the area.
  6. best deal ever, 140+ bucks cash tax free for a 200 mile round trip
  7. Lean-to at Big Dear next week Monday-Thursday. I was hoping to get an on-water lean-too at Ricker Pond but waited too long to make the reservation.
  8. me too, there is no cell service at the camp ground (kids are going to freak when they find out)
  9. heading to VT next week for camping with the kids, weather looking good !
  10. they can present lots of information efficiently
  11. I don't have a home weather station, but have thought about how I would site one if I did. If they come with the ability to places the various sensors in different locations, I'd have the rain sensor in my garden, the temp and RH sensor in the back yard over the lawn where it is open to the sky but shaded by tall trees to the south, and the anemometer would go on the roof to get above the numerous trees and obstructions down at ground level.
  12. is it generally not acceptable to site a station on a slope?
  13. 3+ more inches for the lawn, hoping that means the end of irrigation season (fingers crossed)
  14. after that 3 inches of rain mine started growing again
  15. Let’s hope not. 76/71, dewscusting out there right now
  16. humidity is great when you want to mow your lawn, get drenched in sweat, and then covered in grass clippings ejected from the mower
  17. humidity is great for plants and if you are in the pool or sitting absolutely still, otherwise it blows
  18. This. A while back I installed a gas fueled insert in a poorly functioning fireplace. While researching for the insert, all the info I gathered indicated the only fuel source less expensive than piped natural gas (on a per BTU delivered inside the envelope), was wood you cut yourself.
  19. you mean you haven't figured it out ? never let the facts get in the way of a good story telling
