  1. I was trying to put it off... but had to install Today. Our living room was getting too warm for the Chinchillas, and we both slept like shit last night because the bedroom was a thousand degrees. At least we won't have to use it continuously yet
  2. We actually have quite a few patches greening quickly in our lawn. Lets get some warmth now to help them along. Also... allergies are already nearing off the charts
  3. Just a few flurries here overnight. 26 degrees on the way in this morning
  4. For sure! My friend is super picky with design. He took one look at how ours was installed and said it looked like a discount hooker on a Wednesday night
  5. By then we'll be seeding the atmosphere and folks will be bitching that it's become far too cold... You will NEVER win
  6. Certainly not dry IMBY. We had pretty much all of the snow melt before the rain, so you aren't going to see excess runoff. I was doing some yard cleanup yesterday afternoon and even the frost has gone very quickly. Those drought maps are as suspect as a BDL snow meaurement
  7. I'll take it! It's my birthday weekend, so would be quite the gift. I have Friday off work as well and hope to spend some time outside
  8. Diet Mnt. Dew here
  9. Got used to the furnace quieting down... now this. We're weaning off the gas and leaning on pellets more this time of year. as long as the living room is warm, I don't care about the rest of the house... until we're back at pipe freeze temps!
  10. Funny, I never grade only on amount of snow. Pack retention is big, however I'd rather have near continuous storms even if most/all of it melts in between. We had above average in Westfield and SImsbury, but got shafted on the Blizzard. In give this winter a solid B. If we had more continuous snow along with the pack, I'd have given an A-. I reserve A+ for winters like 93-94 and 95-96
  11. A couple reasons I wouldn't even consider an A- for my area. First, the Blizzard was really nothing I haven't seen in 50 other smallish storms. Second, too few events. I mean sure we had several small ones, but to be an A for me it needs to be pretty much wall to wall events. I'd give it a solid B because of the long pack retention and on time start of the season. By March even in the best winters I'm pretty much done so I don't use it to sway my vote much, however if we had a prolific first two weeks, I'd move to B+
  12. You love to see it. We have quite a few in Westfield
  13. I'm not a big caffeine guy, but man.. extra sleep and it feels worse than nap hangover. Probably woke up in a different phase of sleep. I've heard of the headache when quitting caffeine. Have you had a chance to test the BP? Funny how some are effected by it. Me, if I wanted could pound a pot of coffee and fall asleep an hour later
  14. We talk about weathers fraud 5... how about life's? Go to bed early so you can feel extra refreshed in the morning... and wake up feeling like shit. Seems to happen every time! Where's the caffeine!?
