Go to Pats Peak, just west of Concord.

That's a good call.  Henniker, NH.  You can get there via 202, which is essentially a one-lane highway.  I wouldn't advise going up to Pats Peak in a sports car.  The roads to get there are winding.  "Downtown" Henniker might be good enough.  You can walk around there, too, by the river.

yikes at that HRRR run.  I'm having a hard time buying those totals, even at 7:1 for my 'hood.  

Are the dynamics that good to flip to snow for that long inside of I95 in PWM?

I think the GYX map for coastal areas like PWM is underdone.

Love to hear it.  What's your rationale?

if >12" verifies in PWM i'll never post again

If y'all start talking about eating my kin I am out of this thread so fast.  Scallops, oysters, fine. 

You start talking about that dolphin-safe?  Peace.

LOL at all the sudden anti-vaxxers. Gonna need to get Fauci up there to tell the masked-up scared sheep this is a good vaccine and they can receive it. 

That's a pretty black and white, broad stoke.  

One can believe in the steps and actions that reduce the risk of transmitting the virus AND also have a healthy skeptism of whatever vaccine is first to market. 

Also can you please elaborate on what "masked-up scared sheep" means?

Put the leaves to work for you.  Make them a part of a sheet mulching project (for spring gardening) or top your freshly planted garlic with them.

Apologies...

Ha, it was great content and you did a really good job delivering it, and at an audience-appropriate level.  I enjoyed it.  You handled the questions pretty well at the end, too, which isn't always easy.

What a nice surprise, @OceanStWx is doing my spotter training tonight.

Apologies if this has been posted already.  I found it sound and informative.

If I had to guess, I suspect the recent surges (not just in the US) are due to relatively small, familial/friend gatherings indoors where all 3 measures in the article (masks, airflow, duration) are ignored.  

Wow, congrats SNE crew.  What a storm (some knew, right?) 

Nada up here.

But at least I'll sleep well tonight knowing my 0.0" today means I'll actually have a winter, while you all are toast for the season

Nice!

Just rain here in SoPo.  43/37

Obviously not all masks are equal either. I use the 3M 8577 P95 ones.

Genuine question: do those filters work on both inhale and exhale? I thought the primary goal of wearing masks was to prevent you from potentially spreading it to someone else.

43°F off a low of 34°F

Yeah, for Christmas make grandma show her test results before she can sample the egg nog. 

So dumb. Full kool-aid drinker here, folks.

I think you're dramatizing his idea a little.  It sounds pretty responsible to me.  Probably a good way to have a semi-normal holiday gathering without putting the family and community at greater risk.

How does that make him a kool-aid drinker?

You are entitled to your opinion. I think we will be able to judge for sure if this is a "horseshit conspiracy theory" by mid-January. Under your narrative, the media should be absolutely tearing into President Biden by that time. "Blood on his hands" and all that. I think we will see a major decline in COVID media coverage by mid-November depending on who wins. We will see.

BTW, my statement has nothing to do with the actual virus. I am referring to the coverage and propaganda being beamed into everyone's homes. The virus is not a hoax, I am not arguing that. 

"If it bleeds, it leads."  I think COVID will continue to dominate the news regardless of who's in the oval office.

Nothing wrong with questioning studies, or wanting to understand methodologies.  But to me that graph is just common sense at this point, regardless of validity.

Tourism didn't miss a beat in NNE this summer.  In fact it felt busier in the PWM area than past years.  The major outbreaks in Maine have been linked to Churches and a wedding, both where people were indoors and unmasked. I haven't heard of any outbreaks related to out of staters.
