Most folks are glad we had nice breaks and a glorious first half with top ten days galore. Hot and dry with HHH days limited. Fantastic month of summer activities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit a nest on mowing and it felt like burning embers shooting into my shins, at first I thought maybe the lawnmower was throwing sparks. After about 30 minutes it was insane burning and itching in my lymphatic areas and my face started to swell up. Sitting in the emergency room it started to get worse and worse and the staff kept telling me they were still nine people ahead of me in line so finally I told my wife to just tell them I was having chest pain's. They wheeled me in immediately LOL They jammed a harpoon of epinephrine into my thigh, I thought my heart was going to explode, Now I have an EpiPen prescription. The funny thing is I had had plenty of stings over the years something about the wfh really made me react poorly. Fortunately I have not seen wfh in a few years but I'm still pretty cautious around Yellowjackets. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should get 3-4 next week I'm giving up counting because the goal posts just keep moving. You're gonna "win" no matter what because you keep changing the rules. At first your call was for 15 days after citing BDL as the "official" station for all of CT but then cited coastal areas and now you're citing your own station? Is the goal to find any station anywhere in SNE that has a Dp of 70+ and that means all of SNE has a Dp of 70+? Then there's the business of taking a one hourly ob and saying it represents the whole day. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radarman Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 SVR issued for 60mph gusts and penny sized hail. Seems very legit with definite storm scale rotation and a strong dual pol sig, especially over N Hadley 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 We are missing all of the precipitation this summer complete opposite of last summer. I'll take it as long as we can get the QPF in the winter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I guess S of the Pike has had the torch this year. Honestly, it has felt like a warm, dry, slightly above normal summer here. Perhaps the lack of humidity has me unimpressed? I am pretty mank sensitive and really have not had too use the A/C that much. Electric bill running way short of last summer.

I’m not sure you’re actually allergic vs getting so much venom that anyone would have had that reaction. In my wife’s case last summer, she immediately took Benadryl which quelled any further reaction. That said, keep the epi pen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Way non-weather related..... Has anyone ever removed a doorknob with a pin-hole detent mechanism? I'm sticking in the little simcard-like tool that came with the new knob, but I'll be damned if I can get the old one off. TIA for any thoughts/advice.

Yup I use YouTube for everything, even car maintenance. If you need to do something, someone else has as well and they’ve filmed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
