Any bouncy houses flying through the air? Leef peepers are going to be wondering where all of the leaves went in NNE. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 2 hours ago, HoarfrostHubb said: Winters following a 6” or more of October snow at ORH have been BN in total snowfall *edit. 2020-2021 was a good winter ***this is all tongue in cheek. At the late lamented Farmington co-op (volunteer passed and no one picked up the torch), 32 out of 128 Octobers had measurable snow, some in each decade except the 1980s and the 2 years of the 2020s. Average snow in those winters was 1.2" AN but since the Oct snow averaged 2.6", the November-May average was 1.4" BN. Only 3 Octobers had 6"+ (1962, 1965, 2011) and those winters ran +6.6". Of course, those Octobers averaged 7.2". All that adds up to not much effect. Wind is howling, gusts to 40+ which is significant here in the woods. Went to generator power at 9:25. Trees around the yard are 90%+ bare and the leaves are nice and dry, perfect for raking. It may be dumb in this wind, but I'm going to try anyway as the Monday rain and unsettled week may not allow the leaves to re-dry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog has cancer so the prednisone makes him pee all night and I went out at about 5am..the wind was insane and a mist literally blowing sideways. It was intense. Still windy now, but nothing like that. Def a fall crisp out there today. Hoodie weather.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 Still no power here but not quite as windy - G35 instead of 40. CMP scoped out our short road about 11:15. The four lodged firs that were tipped on 12/18 remain secure; any one of them would easily reach our power lines if they came loose. Leaves are piled up and I'm counting on a bit less wind before I move them to their winter home (including some atop 2 rows of carrots for next April - dug the other 2, nice size and form). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 No power here since 10:30am. We have the Jackery solar genny so it is making plenty of power with the bright sun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 The damage to that large tent is wild. Even saw a street sign on RT 108 pushed to like a 45 degree angle. Fences blown down. Might’ve gusted 60+ at some point on the NW downslope off Mansfield into town. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
