Wow, nice! I thought it was just drizzle getting blown around by the breezy conditions.

BTW, the final piece of Berkshire East's Wind Turbine arrived this afternoon, the crane is showing up tomorrow. Hopefully in a few days the hill will look MUCH different!

Those things are awesome. I went out to check on the few little (realy little) flakes... felt more solid than drizzle, looked like little flakes in the floodlight.

The wind is the real story. Howling

We've flipped to a rain/snow mix up here, too. Definitely more rain than snow but the flakes are there. Its about time, I haven't seen flakes in over a week.

I haven't seen flakes in over 8 months. I was in CALI when it snowed in MHT in october.

Yep I heard a few rumbles here as that line came through with mainly torrential rain here. But much more active south of ALB.

Wind pounding out there now. 39F.

Man did it roar last night. Saw ORH gusted to 59.

We had some pretty good gusts, but I didn't feel like it gusted that high...airport really got a good one though. Sometimes I'll get a gust that I'm sure was 50-60mph and the airport goes 41mph or something....59 is impressive. I've heard the wind all night though. I will admit I havent been paying that close attention. +

Yep--a pretty good zephyr.

Have to go to VT for a couple meetings, then my Thanksgiving vacation officially begins (unofficially, I'll still have a couple phone calls scheduled, projects and can never fully separate from my cell/e-mail). But--I'm psyched either way. Just got my saws sharpened, brush pile ready to burn tomorrow, lime to purchase/spread. Good stuff.

39.8/29
