Ginx snewx Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Most places have seen little if any wind today... highest gust I saw was 15 knots at IJD... otherwise sustained 5-8 knots or so. Pretty quiet wind wise at the asos sites. Grilling and beer very nice out now. Everyone was complaining how chilly it was earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Grilling and beer very nice out now. Everyone was complaining how chilly it was earlier.

#NoPoles Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 broke into the sun between 1-2pm...still a chilly day, but way better than last week...i'm so depressed that crap weather is moving in for an extended stay- round 2...sigh...guess i'll have to dress in my rain condom almost every day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 This week does look wet and cool. Perfect. Nice to give the rivers and streams a good recharge. Also perfect weather for the golf courses to get the greens in tip top shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 CT weathermen pissed a lot of people I know off this week. Perhaps the worst forecast week all year. Even the best busted, congrats Scooter and Phill, they nailed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 It's just a bummer this week isn't going to feature more sun. Most people (not weather people) think that the past week has been horrible... and they're going to get another bad week coming up. Just a pretty crappy pattern. Not Arctic wind-driven thunder clouds like Ginx saw in IJD today but just gloomy. I took down a monster sugar maple with my brother on Saturday. That is hard work. Unnecessary attack by Ryan, when you are a little guy monster sugar maples look like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 The joys of home ownership. He should just have called National Grid for help I love big trees, but if they endanger a house..time to take them down. Growing up, we had a giant white pine..the base was like 3'+ in diameter. The new people that bought the house took it down. I don't blame them, but that tree had to be way over 100 years old..whatever the oldest age they can get. It was massive.

Yeah this thing was about 30" in diameter and it was a monster. Some of it fell in October and it was hanging over part of my house and the neighbor's house. It had to come down. Now I just need to get the stump removed and the brush cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
