You can replace a fixture or outlet in MA but if you're running new wire and such, you need to pull a permit for that work, so there is oversight there. You're also entering an area where if you're a homeowner and you're not pulling all the proper permits for you, you may nullify a homeowners policy. It's best to hire professionals or ask the local jurisdiction what you can/cannot do own your own and with/without permits.

I prefer the reverse direction to reach reconciliation.

It is indeed illegal to do your own plumbing. https://www.mass.gov/doc/plumbers-and-gas-fitters-consumer-fact-sheet/download While we call them outdoor Showers, they're technically Rinsing Stations and cannot tie into the homes septic system. That would be a Title V violation. They have to drain into the ground. You're also not supposed to be using soap in them.

70/65 with no wind

It's friggin' gross out now. Dews in the mid 60s.

I think Oak leaves would survive a nuclear winter the way they reman on the trees all winter.

When people said Summer's back was broken.

Not very UHI for a city of 60K, where I live. More trees than pavement/buildings.

Where most people live

E MA 1-2F above normal MTD.

I'm with Scott. I like a dry house, so I'll run my central air for that if not the temp. Love my house to be 70F with RH just at or below 50%.

Stepped down for sure. But back not broken in my mind.

But it wasn't 90F+ everyday. We had a period of torch for about 4 days towards end of August. The entire month was not like that but had above normal temps and dews overall. The month ended above solidly above normal, but not a torch. All I'm saying it's its right back to that solidly above normal regime over last several days and we are now above normal on the month, so not much of a change in my book.

Broke back summer to me would mean an extended period of average to below average temps. A few days does not an extended period make in my world.

One night in the 40s here. Mid/upper 50s and 60s for lows.

And what was it like yesterday?

Above normal temps and dews.

We were told back was broken 2 weeks ago, yet here we stand mid-month and in the same boat.

Mid 70s for highs and low 50s for lows are the norms mid-Sept here. So those numbers would yield +3-4F. Solidly above normal.

+1.0F MTD now.

CMC and tropics, 'nuff said.

The swamps and low lying stream areas have already changed around me.
