Celebrating our one-year a little late. Speaking of 40's though...I've debated going bac to drinking a 40 during Bruins games this year. I went to Salem once on Halloween like 15 or 20 years ago...never again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salem Halloween Road Closures, Traffic | Salem, MA Patch Yea, I guess it was fine to do once, just to say I have....but lots of inconvenience, which I don't tolerate as well as I did when I was younger. Thankfully, that was back in my drinking days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your experience during Halloween? (We're going the weekend of Oct 22) I went two years ago . Love it . Every sign on highway said “Salem’s closed “ lol . Got there ..Salem was open . Been there about 3x for Halloween...it’s fun . You can people watch or party or both . Wasn’t that crazy ...it’s not like fantasy fest in key west . Just people dressed up having fun . I parked 1/3 mile away and walked 10 min into the Madness and was easy to leave . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 BOX had a very difficult day.

40/70 Benchmark Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 I think the first calendar year that could even potentially challenge 2022 for how boring it has been is 2006. Although, I would have to give the edge to 2022 because the former had the Feb snowstorm, and the epic May floods. This year had the blizzard that was only severe across the se third of the region, and a drought. Both had lame tropical seasons... I give the excitement edge to 2006.

40/70 Benchmark Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 ..Of course, December is pending, and given that December 2006 was one of the worst in history, I think that will ultimately tip the scales. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Warmer up north today… this year has certainly been exciting, ha. When it’s interesting that CAR-BML-BTV sees highs of 82-83F while SNE sees 70s… this year needs some damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
