CoastalWx Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 I will say we have a lot of mom and pop coffee/donut/bagel places, but they aren’t cheap! I’ll pay a few extra bucks, but some of the prices are mind blowing. Depends on how “trendy” some places are too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take cumbys anyday over that crap You realize I’m not paying $13 for a jumbo coffee right? $13 buys enough beans for weeks of coffee daily.

mreaves Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I’m in Lake Placid for the weekend. After dinner I took a weenie ride over to Saranac Lake. I didn’t drive over to the airport but I couldn’t really see why tho place radiates so well. I guess it is in an elevated bowl but the high peaks are southeast of here and the other Mts. Don’t seem that high. Maybe if I had driven to the airport it would have been more apparent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IZG radiates really well with mountains to the west but only Pleasant Mt to the east, and it's 1,100 feet lower (1200 if S.L. obs are at Adirondack Reg. AP). IZG is also a couple dozen miles closer to the equator and lots closer to the Atlantic heat sink, so no wonder S.L. gets siggy colder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish it had a separate outdoor temp sensor though. I mounted mine to my roof to get better wind readings, so my temps suffer a bit (not as much as I would have thought though). I have another gauges for my temps for better accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No complaints here with the system itself. My main issue is the my mounting location which I have to fix, especially for wind readings. I also have a +3-4° bias due to proximity to my asphalt roof, so I need to look into a 6ft mounting pole for both wind and temp. It was really deflating during the Oct 2020? wind storm when my max reading peaked out at 38.6...when we had gusts between 75-85 in the area.

I bought a mounting pole that’s like 3-4 feet and plan on mounting it off the roof of my shed. So the actual system itself will probably be like 12-15 feet off the ground 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about 75 or 80 minutes from here and only open Friday to Sunday but it is $25 for unlimited play and they have VT beer on tap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinball is huge right now and used machines are stupid expensive. If you can afford it, you’re better off buying a brand new one for 6-8k, they don’t lose their value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years ago, when we went out to Vegas, we went to the pinball hall of fame. That was really cool. Just a huge warehouse with arcade games dating way back to the early 20th century. You could play them all too. I’m not even a huge pinball or arcade guy but I loved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Since I like to Follow global finance and monetary policy closely (don’t ask why) I found it Kind of hilarious to hear a very experienced couple of Russian personalities that have tricked world leaders to taking calls from them ..posing as government officials themselves ... had a long interview with Fed Chief Jerome Powell and parts of this prank (Powell thought he was talking to Ukraine President zelensky hahaha as he gives him his plan for monetary policy Happened in January Part of it was released, nothing earth shattering mentioned (thou when not in public light he spoke more candidly and didn’t tip toe as much around the fact the Fed is trying to slow economy , slow hiring (increase layoffs temporarily) and lower wage growth ...because those are the tools they have to fight decades long inflation apparently 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
