  1. 0.64”/hr for Bob right now in Taunton. Pretty good for steady +RA.
  2. Pretty cool watching the radar loop in SNE all afternoon.
  3. 56.7° with sheet rains now…high so far 57.5°. There’s some thin spots in the overcast between the heavier showers and it’s probably enough insolation to play with the temp despite being stuck in a wet sponge. Looks like the really heavy stuff is moving in for Ginx and DIT.
  4. Yeah that problem came up...we plan to look into it.
  5. Yeah I totally overlooked that aspect of your post. lol Dews gone wild in summers these days. We're not touching some of those 1960s/70s records here for a long time (30s). I remember growing up with frequent 40s in the summer and now if it hits 48F just once it feels like a miracle.
  6. 24 record low mins at the rad pit of CON in the 2000s and after quite a lull they've been picking off some in the last 5-6 years. Most recent were the 3 in a row last Sep 19-21 (28F,27F,27F) after I thought our chances of record mins in early fall had vanished. Then there was Apr 5-6 in 2016 where CON set their all-time monthly record low (4F) and then a daily on the next day with 11F. The -21F on 2/24/2015 was a daily record and the coldest for so late in the season. They had a daily record of -17F 3 days earlier as well. The POR goes back to 1868 too.
  7. Meanwhile up here we . Although this weekend helps. Not much help for the Maine folks.
  8. July 50s for highs CON - 55 -- 7/1/1882, 57 -- 7/19/1873, 57 -- 7/2/1914, 58 -- 7/6/1956, 59 -- 7/18/1873, 59 -- 7/4/1932, 59 -- 7/4/1992 ORH - 55 -- 7/4/1978, 56 -- 7/6/1956, 58 -- 7/13/1986, 58 -- 7/4/1992, 59 -- 7/8/2005 Not sure how much yore is in that 1873 stretch in CON, but yikes. 7/17 64F 7/18 59F 7/19 57F
  9. Not going to lie...I enjoyed today. As for tomorrow...not too sure. If Sunday is like this I may start popping vitamin D pills.
  10. Yeah I agree. I think the overall theme is simple and easy on the eyes.
  11. 56.1F Has rained over 24hrs straight...no break. The lulls are sheet drizzle. Up to 1.74".
  12. Give us a little time. Long story short...it wasn't exactly planned. lol
  13. Pretty sure these won't stick long term. I think all he did was a quick upgrade. I had no idea it was being done...lol.
  14. Finally getting upgraded. We’ve been bugged about it for 2 years whenever we log into admin cp.
  15. Stratus is overflowing the inner tube so we’re over 1” since yesterday despite the tipper having 0.83”…probably robin poop plugging up the hole.
  16. He thought it was Christmas eve with this wx.
  17. This is what my 12/17 deform looked like except the orange pixels were snow. lol
  18. 59° and pouring. This is like a synoptic small droplet drenching even though on radar it’s yellow and orange pixels. Love it.
  19. Looks like most of the rabbit sightings are near the eastern Mass border.
  20. So a question about my refrigerator... I noticed the other day the fresh food portion was freezing all of my food (freezer is on bottom). I noticed the fridge is permanently running. I cleaned it out underneath and made sure the coils weren't frozen...check. I made sure the fan was running and pulling heat away from the compressor...check. However the damper in the fridge was permanently open. I took it apart tonight and it's a simple mechanical damper with thermistor. So I'm assuming this part failed. Either the damper physically broke or something failed with the thermistor. My question is, would this possibly cause the compressor to keep running and cold air to keep blowing? With the damper permanently open I would think it would still get cold enough to stop kicking the compressor on and blowing cold air. But if the thermistor is fried it may be thinking it's continuously too warm in there and the damper stays open and compressor keeps running? I just figured the compressor ran based on a thermistor in the freezer portion and not the fridge part, but I'm not exactly an expert with these things. I thought maybe someone here has an idea and could help. It's an older Maytag, but it's a Whirlpool part too. edit...just turned up the setting on the freezer and the compressor and blower kicked off. So maybe that's running normal and there's just too much cold air escaping into the fridge part forcing it to keep running?
  21. It's weird because when I lived in the countryside in Auburn I never saw one there either.
