  1. one of my oaks dropped about 3/4 of its leaves yesterday. accumulations 3-4", lollies to 6". disaster last weekend I filled the tank on my leaf blower, and it was empty within an hour. full throttle FTL
  2. At least the temps here have been consistent today. literal 3 degree diurnal spread. hi of 63.6, low of 60.6.
  3. yeah i got 'em too. they suck. i wish they would fall all at once like most maples, instead of taking 4 weeks. And even then, stragglers left on the tree until spring. there is nothing worse than seeing brown oak leaves on top of fresh snow.
  4. more importantly, why the hell are there so many leaves on your lawn? it looks hideous!
  5. it's been around 7 days behind all season long in my part of NH. we are well past peak here
  6. you’re not kidding. 6 hours of leaf pickup yesterday
  7. some do, others actively encourage it
  8. i wear jeans when using my trimmer if only to keep the poison ivy at bay. jeans come off as soon as i am done though
  9. to be fair, the posters in this thread worried about it are from outside of NE. it's really too bad that there isn't a winter conjecture thread in the NY/NJ forum where they could post their thoughts.
  10. oh man 10-11 was awesome in CNE. 40" Jan, 30" Feb. we had a great pack going into march, then poof.
  11. i had 28 "events" between 12/1 and 4/4 that winter, only 2 of them (10" and 12") were > 8". with 116" total. not sure what my max depth was, but i don't think it was anything special.
  12. first frost this morning, with a low of 32
  13. saw some reports on social media about trees/wires down in the NH seacoast area, Rye, Greenland
  14. what a wild night! picked up an inch of rain with downpours of no more than 0.3" per hour, and a max gust of 30. sure am glad that i stayed safe.
  15. I look forward to a benign max gust of 35 and 2” of rain. hold me, I’m scared
  16. "past peak" is going to happen quickly for most areas after tonight/tomorrow (away from the CT coastal banana belt anyway)
  17. It's gonna wash away. i usually don't put down winterizer until november after final leaf cleanup.
  18. he also apparently doesn't realize that a shitty winter in NJ usually does not translate to a shitty winter in New England
  19. not a ton. i've got around 1/4" this week 20 miles west of there 3 " june, 3" july, 4 1/2" august, 6" Sept. there was no stein here. dry at times-sure. drought? no f-in way
  20. local station was $2.91 at 5pm yesterday. this morning it was $3.17. Up 26 cents in 11 hours. i know it's been discussed, but it irks me to no end that they can change the price on fuel like that-the fuel that is already sitting in their tanks. all it takes is a announcement from the a-holes at OPEC, they haven't actually done anything yet.
  21. hmmm, whose forecast shall i trust?
