I wonder if the backlight on my original VP2 console will ever burn out?  It's been on for like 20 years now.

I feel like every explanation for shadow bands I've read over the last week has only left me progressively more and more confused.

I had a gray squirrel with a red tail under my feeder today. Mixed breeding?

Ugh, the last thing we need are gray squirrels with the attitude problem of the red squirrels.  The last few times I tried to scare off a red squirrel, the damn thing got all jumpy and spastic and started coming towards me.

Had my first ever bluebird sighting today. 

Looks like the gray squirrel tracks that are all over my backyard.

Pretty amazing even down here. The light is so weird at the max.... just feels wrong even though everything looks normal.

I regret not having the idea to start a timelapse of the northern sky until now.  It was pretty amazing how much darker it looked off to the north and how fast it moved along the horizon. 

Solar radiation starting to tank from a high of 835w/m2.

Looks like traffic on 93 has come to a stop between Franconia Notch and Lincoln.

Eversource sent a full battalion of 11 trucks. 

14 hours in and my house is down to 56 already. 

Been in the dark since 4:30. Heard a loud crack, saw the power lines flailing around, then heard the Mmmmmbzzzzt. Pines across from Naswa deployed a large limb to rip the T crossbar thing right off the pole.  Just when I thought I was out of the woods. 

I can't believe I still have power. I can hear the wind across the lake but not much happening on this side.

Had to do a 4am emergency tree and shrub rescue.  I was too late to save the lilacs but the crabapple is ok now.  My newly planted arborvitae will probably have to be replaced.

About 8-9" inches on the grass.

Looks pretty fun on top of Gunstock

Snow. Patchy blowing snow. Visibility one quarter mile or less at times. Additional snow accumulation of 6 to 10 inches. Windy with highs in the mid 30s. Northeast winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts up to 55 mph. Chance of snow near 100 percent.

Hrm, why no wind advisory?

50/50 SNPL again. CC shows it washing out. 
 

Over to all snow here now.  Pretty heavy.

Prob delayed damage from the earthquake.

lol

50+mph from the west or north = grid fine

14mph from the east = total grid collapse

Yesterdays fast and bright mega CME arrived even earlier than I guessed it would. 

Vicious G4 geomagnetic storm now subsiding.

Overkill.

19” feels like the biggest total I’ve ever seen for Whitefield. 

Ok this is getting out of hand. 

It just keeps getting heavier. 

Holding steady as all snow.

26.6

Snow along the edge has been pretty intense the last hour. 

Snow is accumulating horizontally on my windows faster than it can slide off.  Totally plastered.
