  1. Somehow we still found a tick on Benson yesterday. I have no idea how since lows in the 30s and highs in the 40s. Bastards.
  2. Nice pic, we woke up and my little thermometer said 28F at 3k ft but I'm not sure how accurate it is. Water bottle had frozen solid so it was obv below freezing. Took a drive into Accident to go to Firefly Farms and it was gorgeous, leaves have to be close to peak and the sky was such a deep blue....basically same as your pic!
  3. Had a hard freeze up here last night. Very windy up on the mountain but a gorgeous day otherwise.

    Winter 2022-23

    Long term forecast is such horseshit. In one tweet winter is gonna be a bust but in the next tweet it's gonna be epic for the eastern US. Friggen A, I could do that job.
  5. 43F here on Meadow Mountain. In the he middle of a cloud here with what looks like lake effect rain based on the radar.
  6. Heading out to Meadow mountain to camp for the weekend and every night at 3000ft is supposed to get to freezing. We even got some TA KO2 tires on the G wagon in preps for winter. I'm ready.

    Peed my pants a little reading that.
  8. Yeah we may have gotten 6"+ here but it happened over six days so no sign of flooding. Not to mention the ground was really dry beforehand. Perfect for recharging soil moisture heading into winter. I'm just waiting for the inevitable cutoff ULL that happens with six days of straight snow and -20DFNs come January....lock it in.
  9. This mist just won't quit. I did see some lighter skies for about 20min and the temp has warmed to a balmy 57F so at least there's progress.
  10. MAKE IT STOP!!! I gotta be over 7" now. Guess I need to get a bigger rain gauge.
  11. Have the grassy surfaces caved yet?
  12. My rain gauge overflows at 5" and it overflowed at some point today. Pretty steady rain out there right now.
  13. 4.2" here. Really cold and windy this morning. Lots of leaves ripped off the trees.
  14. I'll take my 40" of snow and be happy. Maybe even 50" if you do it kuchera.
  15. Almost 4" as of now. Still breezy and misting so we might get that far by tomorrow morning. Thank God for heat pumps.
  16. Just surpassed 3.5" here so far for storm totals and raining pretty heavy right now.
  17. Probably but we're not getting anywhere near 40mph gusts. Maybe 15-20 gusts if I'm being generous. Basically just an overcast breezy day here now.
  18. Nice evening here, it actually warmed 3F while we were eating dinner in North Beach. I'd say this storm was pretty much a total bust, barely even a breeze out now. I'll take the 2.5" of rain for sure though. No complaints here.
  19. Oooo man I can't wait. Fire up the wood stove!!!
  20. Might've been a little early on my bust call. Checked the rain gauge and almost exactly 2.5".
  21. Hello Clarice! Deaths head hawkmoths. They're quite unlike any moth I've ever reared, and I've reared thousands. Like furry tarantulas with wings. And they squeak really loud when you touch them.
  22. Nice, should be gorgeous up there I'm betting. Id love to put blizzaks on the G, or any of our cars really. Until we build the cabin we're just going up there for a weekend every now and then and it snows like 2 days a year down in SoMD so I think it'd be a waste. Once we build the cabin and spend a lot more time up there I'm down for dedicated snow tires. Just bought Benson a puffy dog jacket because he's a wuss in cold weather. He's gonna have to toughen up.
  23. Woke up this morning and anxiously checked radarscope...couldn't even find where Ian was. Seems like a bust heck wouldn't be surprised to see some sun at some point today. It is breezy out but rain was meh.
