You might want to go back to geography class, son.

Get used to that gradient. I love how the CRV moved 45 miles east.

Stay safe up there!

I'm glad you're back to making posts I can tolerate. In other news, one and done does not cut it at at mi nuevo casa. Everyone's out blowing leaves (including me). Will probably be back doing it again tomorrow

Retirement must be treating you well, Jerry!

Yup. Kill the thread.

How much for Pete?

1.52 at the neighboring PWS. You can talk about replenishment but not need to continue drought talk. We are no longer in a dry pattern. At the risk of sounding like Kevin, I hope it drys out so I can blow leaves.

Stay safe.

meh

.Every non-gfs model is much wetter for the entire region than the GFS which his west-focused.

What year was the big Halloween nor'easter? 93?

As long as it feels warm in my car.......

Dry slot for Bob, ftw.

If only it were December. It will be fun trying to figure if any of the models are getting things right this winter. Given how sucky they've been, we might have a lot of 24-48 hour surprises. Surprises that could go either way.

My wife and I were just discussing that this morning. Our priority's are things in the house (kitchen, windows, floors, sun-porch conversion). That would have the greatest return should we relocate soon.

Bring on the GFS. I'm channeling Kevin a little in my new digs. I'm no longer taking the 1-and-done approach to leaves. Mowed yesterday and did the second leaf blowing (with the vast majority still on the trees). For many in my neighborhood, lawn upkeep is highly regarded. It's a neighborhood of modest 70's houses. As they get sold, the new owners are doing some significant rehabs. We're doing our part in that regard--some ourselves, some outsourced. Lack of attention to the lawn is increasingly frowned upon. Fortunately for me, I have woods in the back so I just blow things over the stonewall. Our property itself requires a major landscape overhaul--an incredibly steep grade and heavy shade is sub-optimal to say the least. Looks like a lot of folks in the area have tackled/are tackling similar challenges. Tree removal, regrading, retaining walls, new top soil. Cost-wise, this will be a deferred project.

Got to 37* under the trees. Lots of frost once you get down the hill. In other news--the National Grid fairies came overnight and I'm back up with power and internet. Surpised the internet came back up as well==we're on FIOS so I"d have imagined Verizon would have had to come to rerun those lines. Whatever--I'm back up.

Guess who is in the “less than 5” in the outage?

Still in the dark here in Westborough. Looks like they repowered the line right up to the immediate area as NG say it’s only 10 customers. No eta on restoration. No work yet in the tree....i I m tempted to break out the Stihl.

Looks like they killed the wires (fire truck ms left a few hours ago). Nothing happening with the tree yet. I’m losing confidence they’ll get to it tonight. Greater doubt that Verizon will be up. No internet ftl.

DIW—damage in westborough. Lots of trees and wires down. Kevin would love it.

I guess I figured why my power is out. Guessing I’ll be in the dark awhile. 1 house down from me. My wife and I each walked by there 15 minutes before the wind hit.

Power out and pea-sized hail in Westborough. Along with a couple close strikes.

I'm late to the Eddie posts. But oft-overlooked in Eddie's masterpieces is this classic.
