Good afternoon BW. I must confess, without thinking of the proper etiquette, I did attach a screen shot of your post in my letter to Mr Boutin. I have attached two screen shots to show my rather wordy letter. I even mentioned how some of our members had volunteered to do the pruning. I could just imagine Will showing up with a chain saw in a hockey mask. The way things are going lately, he might not even stand out. Thank you BW for the okay on the good to share forum post data. Mr. Boutin gave me the office number and a cell phone number. Perhaps, if he ever has the time, he may peruse the forums. As always, here’s hoping ….

Good afternoon BW, Liberty. After reading all the discussion on the CPK ASOS, I decided to reach out again to the ASOS group of the NWS. I mentioned the Board and the ongoing data concerns of our professional, well qualified/versed and regular members. To his credit Mr Boutin answered within a half hour. Below is his reply. Stay well all, as always ….

Good evening Rmine1. It would be a record in the New England sub forum if the fine folks there went 10 minutes without posting. As always …

Good morning all, the photo below was received from a local news outlet. Even though it was from a previous strike. The booming woke me and much of my neighborhood also. Stay well, as always ….

Good morning Liberty. It might be a bit simplistic but what if you did a years ratio comparison, pre ASOS, to other Metropolitan sites than moved it forward in time? Not sure if all Metro or only select sites would be best. I keep thinking that Don and/or BW may have done projections at times. Stay well, as always …

Good morning forky, BxE. Well said. As always …..

Good morning BW. An amazing graphic. If this reflected the precipitation amounts after an extremely cold January, It would qualify as the final exam for the weather forums Coastal Plain anger management course. As always ….

Good afternoon, RJay. I shudder to imagine the fun time contention if CPK was located in that area. Stay well, as always ……

Good evening Tip. With a nod to M W Hungerford; “Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder”. Stay well, as always …..

Good morning DIT. What appears in the forefront of the photo I’m guessing is a mulch of sorts. What impresses me is the pristine beauty of the pictured home front. The flowering shrub, gentle amongst the green. The grass, in various stages of green growth, kissing the field stone border. The magnificent sunshine that fills the scene with promise. In total; looking at the bare trees complimenting the pastoral spring scene, I’m filled with hope. Thank you for the photo. As always…..

Good morning Liberty. On a quiet summers night with a gentle breeze ….. for me it’s “ speak to me softly, like the rain”. Now that I’m alone it’s only a memory. As always …

Good evening Will. These words by BJ Thomas compliment your post……. ”Cause I’m never gonna stop the rain by complaining. Because I’m free. Nothings worrying me.” Stay well, as always …

Good morning all. Ref: NOAA; sometime between 4 and 5:51 the CPK low was 39 degrees. Sunshine over the postage stamp right now. Below is a screen shot sample of the weather alert that is delivered by our local zip digital news called Patch. Stay safe and dry tonight. As always ….

Good morning Unc. The days when the Hanson tower was the standout downtown Brooklyn identifier are gone. Now it is dwarfed by by this/last decade additions. Stay well, as always …

Good morning all. Ref NOAA: 06:51, 41 degrees. Even by an inner city row house, beauty can be found. May we all find peace. As always ….

Good evening all. Ref: NOAA at 21:52 the CPK temperature was 47 with light rain. The 13:51 temperature was 71. A drop of 24 degrees in 8 hours. As always …..

“Now I need a place to hide away. Oh, I believe in yesterday.” As always ….

Good morning BW, Liberty. It looks like forky and or Anthony found a way to hack the NAM. As always ….

Good morning Anthony. For you this photo rates as a wall pinup. Stay well and safe. As always ….

Good evening all. Ref: NOAA, CPK hit 79 for a high. Noticeably cooler as conditions deteriorate. A roll of thunder and a few heavy drops. Stay safe and dry, as always …..

Good morning Don. Hearing birds chirping through my open kitchen window, as my sunny postage stamp begins the climb to the low 80’s, I wonder what thoughts are going through a person looking through a similar window in Billings. The atmosphere will seek balance regardless of the consequences. What echos back to me are simple words often used and heard but seemingly difficult to learn …..”We Reap What We Sow” stay well, as always ….

Good evening, Irish, Julian. It will take me another 5 years but I intend to give it my best effort. Stay well, as always …

I’m old. Bring back anything. As always ….

Excellent point Unc. Either the trees are not old enough to sacrifice or a little accuracy is a too dangerous thing. Stay well, as always …..

Good morning BW. I wonder/ponder whether there is a full realization as to the difference in treating a symptom as opposed to addressing the disease. Perhaps the late 80 year old cherry trees might have an opinion if, with the gift/curse of sentience, they still existed. As always …..
