  1. Yeah....but I will also warn you, that Methuen, plays with fire a bit, and likes to be close to/in the exhaust. That October snowstorm, we got jack....just sat in the exhaust the whole storm..ended with like 5", didn't have to go too far west to get into the good snows.
  2. There's a little ridge that runs along and east of Howe St, starting at the loop and heading into New Hampshire that probably helps a bit....after east and south from the it flattens out around the Merrimack River
  3. Yeah...its a bit early in the year still...easier time getting through
  4. Most time's yes....It would come just up to Lawrence and alot of time stall out there and eventually back down. Not all the time, but alot of the time it had a hard time pushing through. It's a decent spot, as I said not great for t-storms, although a microburst went through just north of the fire station a couple of years ago. Always a good spot for wind, if you are into that. If you like cannoli's, tripoli's are fantastic.
  5. I was just north of the loop on Howe st, diagonal from Tripolis for 9 years. You can go back and see how I did over the last few years since I updated the table....its not a bad spot...sucks for thunderstorms, did well in most snow storms.
  6.

  7. I'm in Kevin. One change for me though. I am no longer in Methuen...I am in Brentwood NH now. Can I get the username and password again, as it appears I have lost it. Thanks.

  9. 000 NOUS41 KBOX 182248 PNSBOX CTZ002>004-MAZ002>024-026-RIZ001>008-192300- PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BOSTON/NORTON MA 648 PM EDT TUE SEP 18 2018 ...NWS DAMAGE SURVEY FOR 9/18/18 WIND DAMAGE IN SAUGUS, MASSACHUSETTS... LOCATION...SAUGUS IN ESSEX COUNTY MA DATE...SEPTEMBER 18 2018 ESTIMATED TIME...1107 AM EDT ESTIMATED MAXIMUM WIND SPEED...70-75 MPH MAXIMUM PATH WIDTH...250 YARDS PATH LENGTH...1 MILE BEGINNING LAT/LON...42.4613/-71.0088 ENDING LAT/LON...42.4581/-70.9901 * FATALITIES...0 * INJURIES...0 ...SUMMARY... A NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SURVEY TEAM LOOKED FIRST-HAND AT DAMAGE THAT OCCURRED LATE THIS MORNING IN SAUGUS, MASSACHUSETTS. THEY DETERMINED THAT A MICROBURST, OR STRAIGHT-LINE WINDS, WAS THE CAUSE OF DOWNED TREES AND TREE LIMBS, A FEW OF WHICH FELL AGAINST HOMES. THE DAMAGE WAS NOT THE RESULT OF A TORNADO. ALTHOUGH TREES, TREE LIMBS, AND SOME WIRES WERE DOWNED ACROSS MANY PARTS OF SAUGUS, THE MOST CONCENTRATED AREA STRETCHED FROM THE WESTERN PART OF RIVERSIDE CEMETERY EASTWARD TO BETWEEN STOCKER PLAYGROUND AND LINCOLN AVENUE. THIS IS APPROXIMATELY A ONE-MILE LENGTH. THE MAXIMUM WIDTH OF THE MICROBURST WAS AROUND 250 YARDS. THE ESTIMATED MAXIMUM WIND SPEED WAS 70 TO 75 MPH. THE SURVEY TEAM WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, SKYWARN AMATEUR RADIO OPERATORS, AND LOCAL RESIDENTS FOR THEIR HELP. THE INFORMATION IN THIS STATEMENT IS PRELIMINARY AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE PENDING FINAL REVIEW OF THE EVENT AND PUBLICATION IN NWS STORM DATA. $$ BABCOCK/DUNHAM/FIELD FOR THE LATEST UPDATES, PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBPAGE AT WWW.WEATHER.GOV/BOSTON YOU CAN FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK AT WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/NWSBOSTON YOU CAN FOLLOW US ON TWITTER AT @NWSBOSTON
  10. They are cheaper then down here at least. Main reason why we moved North, to get more land and more house for the money. Yes property taxes are higher but wanted out of here.
  11. Thanks...I think the snow stats for where I am now are similar to where I was. I was looking for that better snow map that shows the average snows, but couldn't find it. I am sure its in a thread here somewhere.
  12. Thanks Great Snow...I appreciate that. That certainly doesn't sound good. I haven't been too close to the issues in Methuen as of late, but based on your comment I am glad I moved on. One thing I noticed at least down where I was, was all the houses they have build building in Northern Methuen up on Hampstead street and Howe...just house after house...the traffic was getting unbearable.
  13. Just moved up to New Hampshire this weekend. Found a house a few houses down that is reporting to Weather Underground. Don't know how good his rain gauge is, but currently reporting 3.2" so far. Again, I have no idea what his equipment is, just reporting what it says at the moment.
  14. Metrowest is going to be the big winner I think...They always do well in these setups.
  15. What are the odds of hitting 93 in April and needing AC vs highs in the 40s and needing heat? Probably leans much more to the heat.
