  1. What are people's thoughts on the Saturday system? Seems quite a bit of difference between the EC and GFS with respect to measurable--particularly in northern areas. Do you think this will pretty much a CT/RI rain per GFS? Thanks.
  2. With this being the futility thread, I'm taking the under across the board. Persistence, ftl.
  3. Winter's no-show is causing tempers to grow short in Mount Tolland's environs. https://www.foxnews.com/us/mall-brawl-involving-hundreds-yields-4-arrests-3-adults-and-1-juvenile?intcmp=ob_article_footer_text&intcmp=obnetwork
  4. Cliffs are not a good place for weenies to be walking in the winter of 18-19. Not good at all.
  5. Coming back up Rt. 122 from the house showing in ORH we passed a moose hit in Oakham. First one I've seen in Mass.
  6. LOL--have an escape here has been a blessing! Barring miraculous timing of closing here and closing at a new place, I'm going to find myself back up there. Suffice it to say it will be hell. As far as bands go, J. Geils started there when he was a student at WPI. Not music, but so were the Coors Light twins. There are two reasons to go there. Climate alarmists may call this a winter of fore.
  7. They're great folks---just different life styes!. Growing up in New London even we thought Worcester was bad. That's a bit like the pot calling the kettle black! We had lived there in the early 2000's. It's funny how life comes full-circle some times.
  8. My snobby brother and sister-in-law who used to live and die with everything that was Cambridge (and have since moved to Harvard) have discovered the best restaurants are in fact in ORH, not in their old stomping grounds. The winter of 2018-2019 causing for threats by blowing inflatable snowmen and reindeer than WWA. Sad. Very sad.
  9. If we were to wind up with normal after the first 6 weeks of met-Winter producing zilch, we will have had a great second half. My dog's water dish ended up staying frozen with yesterdays storm/last night's mild up and I still have a lingering patch of snow. Shocked to see either. 38*
  10. The fact that he's been hung-ho on a strong is reassuring--Ray really knows his stuff. With each cutter and the pattern change incessantly being pushed back has me seeing this as a really bad ratter. We may very well make it from December- mid-January with 1". We'll see what happens beyond mid-January.
  11. The post-deluge CAA is all this winter's going to offer. Soak it in. Maybe you can work in a winter Lesco treatment in time for the New Year's rainer. Or the one after that. Or the one after that.
  12. With my wife working at Clark we certainly have a wide-range of towns we can consider. She's a bit 'done' with country living at this point. And, the houses on the west side are just fantastic homes architecturally. There are so many 1890-1930 Victorians and Arts/Crafts home there. I've always thought the houses in Worcester are as awesome as you can find anywhere. Plus, ORH is finally achieving it's long-sought and long-promised renaissance: https://www.npr.org/2018/10/23/658263218/forget-oakland-or-hoboken-worcester-mass-is-the-new-it-town so despite the price of the west-side homes, I think it would be a positive investment. That said, I'm not sure what we'll do with 4000 sf (other than need to buy an awful lot of furniture). 39*
  13. FWIW, the CAA comes in like a lion. Wind's a ripping......I've never seen things trigger the motion-sensing light. Doing our first ORH house showing today. Love the look of it on-line and from the drive-by we did. Not thrilled by only 630' elevation. Now that we've accepted an offer on Pit1, we can legitimately consider making offers now. 43*--down 2* in 10 minutes. Didn't we just watch this movie a week ago??
  14. Put this in the "in case this December isn't bad enough" file: During the requisite chit-chat during my haircut yesterday, the woman cutting my hair asked me if I had grandchildren.
  15. That's a helluva a lot colder than SNE at this time yesterday, and only 10* warmer than much of the region today.
  16. I hadn't realized the wind was going to stay up all night. Still howling. If only we had a blanket of snow, the moonlight would have been awesome. 27*
  17. I could be, depends on the living situation at that time. I also mis-read the title. I thought it was a huddle to discuss a January 19th HECS. That's why I said James approves.
