  1. 2-3" on the GFS and Euro...perfect. We don't need any of that 5" nonsense.
  2. It's all good. Historically I've been just as critical. And yeah, the youngins don't know anything other than winning. Heartbreak is in the Gen X DNA.
  3. I always enjoy how tblizz and scooter switch personalities in the Pats forum.
  4. If we got 5” in 24hrs the posts would be about how most of it never soaked in.
  5. Bottom of the hill at the Winni River
  6. Foliage has been looking epic around here.
  7. Euro op and weeklies bad? Euro seasonal snowfall good?
  8. I started a nasty cough last night and my wife started it this morning. No other symptoms.
  9. Maybe it'll come back next year and resprout from the ground. Waiting until it went dormant may have been a better idea. I have a 4ft ash tree growing out of my front mulch that I've been hesitant to chop, but I may dig it up and try to transplant it in Novie when it's deeply dormant.
  10. fwiw my soil temp hit 54F this morning. Here's the date that 1st happened in recent autumns... 2020: 9/21 2019: 10/5 2018: 10/14 2017: 10/17 It may drop even lower tonight with another near freeze.
  11. Some really vibrant oranges and reds in the early maples. Everything seems to be early this year and I’m sure the cold shot and dry weather help. 80s type foliage season.
  12. Foliage is starting to pop around here. Seems pretty vibrant in spots to me. I never noticed drying or wilted leaves this summer though.
  13. Make sure you treat them again in the spring because they can put out a few generations in a season and multiply quickly. I’ve gotten some pure neem oil off of amazon and mixed it with mild soaps (like those dr bronners castille ones) and water and sprayed some plants with it with some success. That should protect the pollinators since neem only kills when it is eaten. The problem is you really have to saturate the leaves. The systemic non-organic insecticidal soaps work well too, but they probably harm the bees. The systemic ones allow you to just spray the tops of the leaves and then it works its way through the plant. Neem you would have to spray on both sides...kind of a PITA.
  14. Balmier 35.9° here. Tonight’s the night though.
  15. Pinkham had a little bit of yore in their Feb 69 report. Their depth kept going up the same amount as the new snow even with depths well over 100”. Maybe you could argue the depth was correct and they just called the increase in depth as the new snow? How much of that depth was due to drifting? Impressive nonetheless.
  16. If you like radiating and a short growing season HIE is for you though.
  17. Spotty color here too. I'm not ready to write off the foliage season up here. The forest floor around here can tolerate the minor droughts we get. Lawns are a different story. These numerous 30s should help the foliage out as well.
  18. Opening windows down south while we start closing them.
