  1. Too many sinners living on that berg.
  2. We were pretty dry most of the summer, but 2 years ago was worse in my area.
  3. Yesterday marked the anniversary of an historic snow storm where I grew up in upstate NY. This is one of my friends marking the occasion. Never mind the spelling error.
  4. What are the ponds and rivers in your area like now? Close to normal levels? Still in deficit?
  5. Worse in what way? I am not trying to be a tool ( at least this time). Are you talking simply from a historical record sense or other? When I see the severe drought discussions, my mind goes to food production, water scarcity, etc...tangible things that make things miserable for us humans, animals, etc., not Kevin's lawn. seemed to be on this drought fear train where we all should have been heeding his doom and gloom warnings, and if not sure death would be upon all of us.
  6. When was the last severe drought that truly affected New England (or parts of the region) in a negative way where there were dire consequences? Food production? Severe water shortages?, etc?
  7. lol. Pretty much sums it up every year, just prior to the start of the season.
  8. Are any of the fall allergy prone people here having more serious than normal allergies over the past week or so? I am. I will have to consult the dead sea scrolls and see what this means for winter.
  9. Indeed. Been howling most of the weekend, but more so overnight and especially this a.m. "Howling" is probably excessive. Maybe few small pots of mums blew over.
  10. I can only speculate that everything built on that island within the last 30-40 years was done so to the strictest of hurricane standards but anything else has to be gone.
  11. Having this depressing round table talk about how expensive energy costs are going to be in New England this winter from an energy analyst guy, and man, the sh.it is grim. The one thing he said is a "positive" is the long range weather is calling for above normal temps. I guess it will be a lame winter, weatherwise and for energy cost as well.
  12. Yes. Yesterday morning it was mid 30s and snowing for a few hours. There is. Video of it on Facebook but I don't tmhink it will link unless your a member of the lake page.
  13. Closing camp for the summer. Snow and 30s this a.m. and sun and 40s in the afternoon. Stacking and storing firewood, and of course, putting to sleep more super uncomfortable Adirondack chairs that no one uses. That barometric pressure gauge is from 1920 or so.
  14. Been snowing most of the morning up around 2K here in the 'dacks. 36F currently.
  15. It's darker out now than when I left for work at 6am. Raining buckets... Raining Cats and Dogs... Coming Down in Sheets... [Insert favorite, heavy rain idiom/ expression here]
  16. I get what you're saying. June and the first part of July were fairly comfortable to me. Wall to wall heat and humidity didn't happen from June through august. The heavy heat and humidity crammed into 5 or 6 weeks was bearable to me. And I am one to usually cry and have meltdowns over toilet-paper-sticking-to-my-azz, sweat-dripping-off-my-dome heat and humidity. Maybe it's because I am older, but I wasn't too worked up about the HHH period this summer.
  17. You are probably right about the Great White band in N.H. Those guys can still do it. I have trouble with Warrant and no Jani Lane. I am not sure which singer is there now. I used to be a big Dokken fan back in the day. Saw them open for Loverboy in 87, and then again on the Monsters of Rock tour in 88. That is a bummer about Don's vocals, but it happens to all of them. For example, Rob Halford really needs to give it up at this point. At 70 plus years he has nothing left to proove.
  18. Thanks. Should be awesome. The environmentalists nightmare show.
  19. ... After multiple Covid delays I will be enjoying some serious stein tonight at Gillette.
  20. Ha. This is great. I saw all of those bands back in the day, and even more recently. Had tickets to the infamous Great White, Station show but just decided not to go at the last minute.
