All Activity

Peak to past peak here, but still plenty of leaves yet to fall. Spent a few hours today blowing/raking to keep ahead of it.

So you experienced MP's last Big Dog in Feb '08?

dad jeans?

Feb 19-20 2025

I haven’t worn jeans yet. Warm days

Low 60s and shorts today. What a day.

We can always dream ……. And … well … you never know …… as always ….

What a day . Hours and hours of blowing then mowing . Another week or two of straggler leaves and it’s over. https://imgur.com/a/DnPs4Vw#2nhHoMg

There's snow in dem hills up here.

Have a 30% chance of snow in the point and click for tomorrow morning, Looks like the bulk of the week is 40's for highs and 20's for lows, Full step down in progress.

Thanks MN Transplant for the information and welcome! Now I'll get back to hoping for a Ravens win tomorrow and first flakes for everyone on Monday night.

WB latest weeklies: lot of below normal temps leading up to Christmas still with normal precipitation.

LOT

The upcoming forecast is giving me partly sunny, breezy, and chilly vibes through the week. It continues to be extremely difficult to get a big storm here. As for today...primo.

Today’s Euro 10 mb got slightly weaker and I’d call it 2nd best only barely behind 3 days ago (depends on criteria): once again it’s showing a real threat of earliest SSWE since 1968! 3 days ago 1 year ago: near avg/much stronger than ‘25:

No it wouldn’t. You’ll never get an accurate wind reading anyway. Just put the station 6 feet above a patch of grass

Upper 60s, mostly sunny, little wind. Top-10 practical weather day of the year.

This isn’t too far from you. Outstanding sweet and hard cider. Stunning location. https://www.newsalemcider.com

Updated "expected" snow maps upped a lot in Illinois to 7" expected in Chicago now. Probably cuz ^ and 18z hrrr.

I’ve been on a cider kick the past few weeks. Beer will be back soon

.13" last night

Ideally I'd have an open area 2 meters off the ground for temps and a pole above the roof at 10 meters but either can't be done. Would temps be affected if I put the thermometer literally next to one of those white solid plastic fences? Would the plastic fence affect readings?

Fake suburban life, sucks for me

Wedgy season is here

Well, yardwork was going OK and then this happened. Maybe my wife was right when she said “having beer on tap in the driveway is a bad idea” . What a day!
