  1. We are seeing other signs of fall up here- white plated cars driving 30 in a 50 or doing U-Turns on the Main Street in Stowe during evening traffic, locals selling crap in yard sales to folks looking for antiques, lots of LED headlights heading north on Friday night on 100 or 89, local craft places selling pumpkin ales ... .
  2. A little surprised to see the convection in the Bahama area didn't even make the Tropical Discussion.
  3. I almost missed this. This is fantastic on so many levels!
  4. I have been stung on 4 occasions this summer alone.
  5. Stories about him, however, often have happy endings .
  6. I assume you know but in case you don't the 2012 event was the so called GAC or Great Arctic Cyclone. https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/78812/2012-arctic-cyclone https://news.ucar.edu/7732/ice-vs-storm-2012s-great-arctic-cyclone
  7. Last time I played a round was at St Andrews. I remember my first drive landing right in the fairway on the Old Course. It could have been better only had I been playing the Old Course and not the course next to it. Great fun even though I managed to lose enough balls into the sea, gorse and ponds that when I found some kids who were fishing balls out of a pond and I bought some from them so I could finish the round.
  8. I have the week off and with it being a nice cool day, I went in the yard to do some weeding and other jobs. My labradors stirred up some wasps, I think each got a sting. I got stung about 10 times on my legs. Spent the rest of the afternoon icing the bites down and napping by the TV.
  9. Lake Hicthcock reborn https://dinotracksdiscovery.org/supporting/context/glacial-lake/
  10. Meanwhile this was taken by 1-91 by Lyndonville. Its on the internet so it must be legit.
  11. We lost power for about 6 hours at home. A really good drink- maybe 1.5 to 2 inches based on the nearby Davis stations but 2 went offline with the power issues. Drive home was white knuckle due to the wind, rain, hydroplaining and occassional branch in the road.

  13. Some rotation at 17 to 19 seconds on the far left?
  14. Eye clearing out and getting much better looking right with landfall.
  15. I just installed for the first time since we bought this house 8 years ago. The times before when we got hot or humid it would break soon enough but my wife has been really uncomfortable for the past couple of days with the heat. Looking forward to Tuesday's low dews now.

  18. prediction: storm somehow avoids SNE and makes landfall in St. Johnsbury by having micro eye go straight up the CRV
