moneypitmike Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I've had a family of them wander thru the yard everyday now for about 2-3 weeks. Always early in the morning Their turds are probably destroying the LL (lesco lawn). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Nice looking deck. How high off the ground is it? We have a low one so no railing (or spindles) needed, ftw. The top tier is 5 feet or so..except for one area where maybe 6 feet near where the grill is..the bottom tier is about 3- 4 feet. The spindles took me 5.5 hours FTL.. both sets of stairs and the entire rest of the deck took less than 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Boston did not make 80, maybe tomorrow if the clouds hold off, next chance Mem day weekend? What a perfect late spring day! Was out for 2 hours in the woods with the dog. Mid to upper 70s with td in the upper 30s. Doesn't get much better. My family and I are heading to CO for a long weekend event leving Boston Thursday the 17th at night. Looks perfect out there. Summer is a wonderful time around here....looking forward.

Dude..it's brutal doing those spindles..Have to get on a ladder for part of them and reach up...It's a full days project..But man does it look good when it's done It might be able to be walked on tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Rain Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Humidity next week FTW I don't know... SE flow FTL on Tuesday with humidity. Wednesday if we're lucky but I don't see much high dew air. Euro and ensembles have a really nice refreshing cool punch Thu/Fri. GFS definitely more zonal and milder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Why not use a spray applicator? Why would anyone do that? Nothing is better than a brush..If you spray it or roll it,,you still have to backbrush it..so double your work..No thanks and brush looks the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Topped out at 76F here. The CLI shows CON peaked at 79F, but that was only as of 4pm and they racked up 79F right through to 6pm. Had some textbook lenticular clouds spring up this afternoon ahead of the other WAA clouds. The gf thoroughly enjoyed the explanation on how they are formed. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctsnowstorm628 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Man, even with a west wind we got killed down here! 80F at MMK, 79F at IJD, but 69F at the beach front, 73F at my station, and 75F at SNC.

Ice Warrior commander Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 80F it is for CON...49F range on the day. I always like checking out the Diurnal range on days like this at KCON. 78F/37F was the Max/Min TT here on the 12th. I sort of have a Large diurnal range fetish as well. KSLK and Berlin are high on the list too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 80F it is for CON...49F range on the day. Nice. Manged a 29* range at the Pit (45.1/74.0). Like a summer morning out there today--54.4/43. Taking my daughter to see "Beauty and the Beast" in New Haven (tour tickets were half the price there than the dates in Boston, FTW). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
