Torch Tiger was there. Or was that Noel?

Wasn’t Noel. Noel was actually an epic chase. That was almost legit Hurricane conditions at CHH. We found that shit tavern that was open to get inside for cover. You literally couldn’t look into the wind because it was sandblasting everyone…that was despite downpours…wind was so strong it didn’t matter. It couldn’t mat the sound down enough and we’d just get blasted.

I remember we were hanging onto that metal post on the beach in the wind

Remember all the damage when we drove back to my grandparents house in Yarmouth? It was damage everywhere. Really impressive storm that was. One of the few that lived up to the hype.

At least I'm 99.9% sure. Wasn't the Earl the one that all of a sudden started to crawl towards the Cape and it was the slower forward speed which factored into the less impressive wind aspect? 

Yeah, I remember on my old android phone that could barely load anything, trying to post obs during Earl.  It wasn't that cold so I didn't understand why you were freezing. :D  Earl sucked in FMH, 55mph.  Noel however was really roaring, lots of trees and limbs everywhere and no power.  easily 65-70mph gusts maybe 75

I think we got a handheld at 65-67ish on the beach at CHH in Noel and that is obviously only 6 feet off ground and not 10m. There were def some hurricane gusts in spots during that. 
 

Irene was pretty good on the Cape too. Earl was kind of a bust.

straight rain here.   32 ... looks like on the button, but accretion, despite being into fresh glacier of snow/sleet mix to the tune of 6", isn't happening. 

glad. phew.  Cause when the winds come around after this thing that's a scenario I'm glad won't set up

Same here, pretty steady and looks to get heavier, gonna be a hell of a pack when all this freezes.

32 now as the next slug of moisture is moving in.  Too bad temps weren't a couple of degrees colder.  

I think we have played with the ice enough, at least down here, close to .4. As is I’m rotting at 33-34. Id like some of this ice to loosen before the wind comes.
