8611Blizz Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Ok thanks, just trying to figure out if I need to get the snow shovel out or put away the chainsaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 47F here and dropping. I wonder if Killington is making snow. It's 27.5F at the summit of Mt Snow and that's roughly the glades elevation. Looks like a short snowmaking window today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Didn't even know it was going to be windy. That said, I didn't hear much wind overnight in the house even though we gusted in to the 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoth Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 5 hours ago, OceanStWx said: Also we had wind gusts on MWN to 55 knots for tonight, they are already sustained at 70. That's gotta be one of the more difficult places to forecast. I remember going hiking there a few years ago in September. When I left Boston in the early a.m., conditions at the mountain were clear and calm. I show up three hours later and it's blowing 80 sustained with an ice storm in progress on the summit. By the time I got up to Tuckerman, it was a gorgeous day and almost calm. You can easily see why so many people die there. A lot of hikers seem totally unaware of how variable the conditions can be.

Yeah I mean you can leave the boundary layer and enter the free atmosphere there. With some of the inversions up there you can swing +/- 10 degrees easy as you hike up. But I will say MOS is pretty darn good for the summit. I dumped the MET in to fix it quickly and it gave me sustained 84 knots and gusts to 102. That ended up being within 10 knots of reality.

CoastalWx Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Some good gusts last night. A lot of branches down. Some people I know in SNH without power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remarkably uniform gusts around 40 knots with the fropa. We ended up with about 75k without power in our CWA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxBlue Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Nothing against anyone personally, but chasing in a major hurricane is just dumb. Glad it appear everyone in the chasing community made it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava Rock Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Any suggestions on an LP powered garage heater to use infrequently during the winter so I can do some work in the garage? I've been using one of the kerosene wick heaters, but btu-wise, it's pretty low (<30,000) and takes awhile to warm the garage. I suppose I could go with a K1 salamander, but they stink. I've got a 20lb propane BBQ tank I thought I could use hence looking at some of the propane heaters. Of course, a CO2 detector would be used.

I bought this one (Mr. Heater F232000 MH9BX Buddy 4,000-9,000-BTU Indoor-Safe Portable Propane Radiant Heater) after a 20 hour power outage in 2013. I've only used it a few times since for a couple of hours. There is an odor to it but for a few hours it's bearable. They have a bigger one too which might be more what you need. http://tinyurl.com/yc77667e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use one of those in my sugarhouse on really cold days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
