  1. Just a nice steady rain for the past several hours, pushing a half in so far it seems....
  2. Thanks, yeah the grass was a deep green in most locations and will probably take off with tomorrow's rain and no real cold for a couple of weeks.
  3. Actually had to mow this evening, hopefully the last of the season... Colors are really starting to pop down here too!
  4. I missed both of them living in Delaware, so I guess I am due? 18 inches has been the max for me since I have been here. I saw 36" during the blizzard of 96 living in PA, but was only 13 at the time and can't recall too much. Living in rural PA at the time, I remember being truly snowed in for days.15 ft snow drift on 1 road and a 12 foot drift on the other. Needed equipment from Erie to get the roads cleared.
  5. I hate to say, it can't get worse than last year, because it could and the way things are going it might...lol
  6. A light version of 2014/15...light snow and 10 degrees while eastern CT is S++, can't wait
  7. This is very true, let's run these low pressures into RI all winter long and shovel our way to above normal precip by April....
  8. 0.20" of rain this morning, at least there is something...would be happier with 2.00"
  9. that would definitely put a dent in this "drought"
  10. After last year, day by day is probably the best way to go...but yeah, expectations are low. I didn't get to experience 2010/2011 up here, so let's go and do it again!
  11. No pigs please.... hopefully the blocking we have seen recently has something to do with the solar min and not some random garbage. Possibly seeing some rounds of blocking this winter. Probably the typical massive swings 0 to 60 degrees in 24 hrs with little snow retention with and average winter is what we can hope for I guess....
  12. So the the stronger we get here, the more it can impact our region.... Great, our winter was looking grim before, now we might as well go full ratter at this point. So the wild card could be the solar min. Expectations remain low going into October.
  13. 34.2 here, looks like another perfect day....
  14. Only got down to 41 last night, heavy fog this morning. Despite the low 60s for temps yesterday, the sun felt almost hot. Should be a fantastic weekend...
  15. No piggies please....September through March, but it is 2020, so why not
  16. Will take anything at this point, 1-3 inches state wide sounds good. Reading a thread from our old town and it seems like there are quite a few people experiencing well issues over the past week
  17. This guy has been around 2 out of the last 3 nights....first at 430 am and last night at 815 pm, 5 minutes after I had the dog out. I do not really want to run into him.
  18. .08 overnight, first measurable since September 11th with hopefully another 1-3 inches this week....
  19. Yup, cranked the heat up and sent the kids in....maybe push for tomorrow and Tuesday before closing up?
  20. Yellows, with the occasional oranges/red showing up here in the valley....still a long ways to go around here
  21. No thanks...way too much of that here of late. A snowy November through March would be alright though! Those few mornings of sub 30 and now 80+ feels weird, it felt like August today, the kids swam in the pool for a bit. Temperature was actually 68 before I kicked the heater on, sun is still cooking the water, just a bit at least.
  22. 28.6 this morning...Looks like a warmup is coming, 70s/50s would be just fine until November
  23. Great views from my house as it sits at the high point of the "valley". I don't think those hills will effect much, might end up staying under 32 in freezing rain events though. The breezes are great, so much better than our last place, surrounded by trees, never had any breezes, always felt stagnant.
  24. The bottom third, that the main unit is attached to is a galvanized steel pipe. The anemometer is attached to an aluminum pole that is used for a roof rake. Since it doesn't snow anymore, I figured the pole would get better use holding an anemometer...
  25. Thanks, definitely want to maintain my credibility in the temperature department...lol I planted a few apple trees the other day and the soil was super sandy, the whole way down. Not a rock to be found, amazing to find in SNE...Interesting microclimate for sure
