    Wood heat plus mini splits plus heat pump hot water heater is the way. They’ve been doing that in Quebec for years since electricity is so cheap there. With the any income rebates in Maine plus the fed tax credit it’s a no brainer if you are looking to make a change from oil heat and window units. Maine has done over 300k installs since 2019.

    Duluth, Minnesota is basically Portland, ME circa 2013 but add two ski hills and a ton of mountain biking in city limits. Old industrial city on a big a** waterbody slowly gentrifying. Time to buy real estate here is now imo. Yesterday’s 40 degrees turned into a breezy 70 degrees and sunny. .

    Not New England but temp bottomed out at 39 on the car thermo on my drive from Minneapolis to Duluth this afternoon. We’ve had some bad Memorial Day weekends in NE but this is another thing altogether. 35 degree temp drop in 2 hours from MSP. Glad we don’t live here .

    Loving this London weather regime. Cool and damp is welcomed this time of year.

    Man you’re courageous riding the roads around here. I gave that up years ago for the dirt. Rather hit a tree than get run over by a teenager on their phone

    51 here. Never even got close to advertised highs in mid 60s

    Yes. Get there early

    Tucks and Boot Spur gullies still loaded up as of today. Incredible weather today and no crowds. I’m sure this weekend will be the gong show Tucks is famous for. .

    Great point. The eclipse experience was an open door for millions to share in our collective humanity. That’s why people love it so much, largely because that door is rarely opened in our current society. Imagine if responsible use of psychedelic drugs was the norm. World would be a better place.

    Another poster identified the phenomenon as shadow bands. Worth googling, had no idea about it prior.

    Maybe some small D1 wet slab issues with this next system but then it’ll go isothermal this weekend and you should be good to go. Those buried weak layers will be gone. Spring time hazards will start appearing next week and the lower parts of sherb are probably numbered days.

    Well that was cool. Also saw some weird light wave effect happening on the snow in the field just before and after totality. Can’t post videos or else I’d share. .

    I think those photos were from 16-17 but I’ll let lava confirm. Both good but 16-17 better locally.

    That was a great year. Last one we had that really went big although 17-18 and 18-19 weren’t too bad either. Not sure what to make of this season. Today was great though. .

    13” Bridgton 33 degrees Been dumping here last hour or so. Lots of tree damage. .
  19. NW_of_GYX
    9” Bridgton just got to SR maybe 6”. This is gonna bust low here. Not snowing here currently.

    Already pasted up pretty good. About an inch or so

    Hey there, will let you know how it goes!

    first flakes, 36

    Kieth Carson says to round up to infinity for me .

    40 mph gusts plus a foot+ of 8:1 snow is concerning. Gonna be some outages if those winds verify. Probably some outages even without the winds with those ratios. Not really sure about chasing this to SR on Thursday - unfortunately the local hill is now closed midweek. Lifts go down at SR when a moose farts.

    foot+ on positive depth change is no joke. Think it's safe to say the Whites into the Mahoosucs about to get wrecked PNW style. Next Monday Eclipse chasers trying to find a place to park off the road in NNH NW Maine should be interesting.
