wxeyeNH Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Alex. For weather watching/animal watching I definitely prefer the narrower camera. With the narrower view you also have privacy if people are using your deck. I would not want to be close up sitting on the deck with the camera broadcasting to the world. If its important to have the deck or more of the woods then the wide angle is a better choice. It does show me that there is a problem with your first camera. The wide angle is much crisper but that is not because of the wide angle but just shows me your first cameras lens is faulty and that unit should be returned. My vote, narrower view cam, but return this unit and get one with a non faulty lens!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Agree! That's the wide angle; I have to assume that it's due to the lens problem... I would certainly replace it either way, that camera is definitely defective. I guess the question is - keep the wide angle, which gives me a bit more of a view from a "security" perspective, or try another standard view, hoping that it was in fact a lens issue and that the new will have similar quality to the wide angle?

eyewall Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I tried to get some shots of the rime and foliage today. I will go through later on. I got one drone flight in but it was too windy to go up near the summits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Here's a pic of the rime in a distance. Even if it's not snow, nice to see white! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Had 0.24" yesterday, boosted the flow on the Sandy from 38 cfs to 39. Wind has brought down a lot of leaves but the ones still on the trees remain bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frequent light to moderate acorn showers. One heavy acorn shower around 1pm accompanied with gusty NW winds to 31mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 LOL, I wonder if NWS should start adding acorn showers to the grid. Currently 39F, heading for a low of 26F according to P&C. It's coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendrite Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 We dropped off pretty quickly last night, but then leveled off quite a bit after midnight. I thought I'd easily go below 32F based on the midnight temp. Anyways...low was 32.0F here. The higher els in the county were U30s and the cool spots U20s. Bear Brook RAWS pulled a 27F and CON 31F.

ApacheTrout Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 My pond is drying up. This is the result of a lack of snowfall (less than 20 inches) last winter, below normal rainfall (13.09 inches since May 1, 1.24 inches since September 1, 4.67 inches since August 1), and a warm to hot summer. The little brook that feeds the pond hasn't run since early June. In some years, it never stops running; in most years it goes intermittent at times during the summer. At capacity. Drying up. The water level is about 2 feet lower than normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
