  1. Flooding due to tides or rainfall amounts? My understanding was this is ripping through overnight, dropping 0.50" to 1.0" of rain around here and clearing out by noon. Ground is definitely saturated - I've still got a mini lake on the high side of my driveway, but at least for here, if it's not much more than 1" we shouldn't have much of an issue. But, I'm not on the immediate coast either so it's likely apples and oranges.
  2. This happened last year our west where they had the tremendous amounts of snow. I saw a video clip after the fact where the rescuer and rescuee had a beer together and chatted briefly about it. I seem to recall the guy who was buried didn't have a whole lot to say. I can't imagine being in that position and going from having fun, to oops, to uh-oh, to oh shxt, to this is it...
  3. Colorful morning here. What’s that old saying? ”Dark at night, Ye have snow blight. Red at dawn your snow’s all gone”?
  4. I was looking through their site and you're right - I'm blown away by how many active products they offer. It's a HUGE variety. I could fill a fridge with 4 packs of things I'd want to sample from there.
  5. Would not be surprised if costs are affecting those numbers. It can be an expensive habit for sure. Last time I ordered from Trillium it averaged out to something like $5.50/can. Unique stuff I find locally often runs $19-$22 for a 4 pack now. So many great options to choose from these days!
  6. Are Treehouse beers sold in stores or only at their locations? Heard of them before but never been. Curious how they stack up to other local favorites.
  7. Does this mean it's going to snow?
  8. Something that got me on 10/31/2021 and a relative of mine in Bow a couple years earlier was a plugged outlet to our foundation drains. Both of us ended up with flooded basements after heavy rain storms. His was a good distance from his house and packed with dirt. Mine is very accessible and visible but got plugged with leaves and grass clippings over a 15 year period. Once I got it unplugged, it flowed for DAYS. Basement water level dropped almost immediately. Not sure if this could be the case for your sister, but it's definitely worth looking into. Very quick and easy fix for a major problem.
  9. A little cleaning up down there won't hurt. Just got back in from heading around the bay. Lots of really high water. Inches from the bottom of the year round docks. Very close to getting up to road level on a couple of the low bridges on Route 4. Also very little debris on the roads that we typically see when there's higher winds. My lawn's looking lush and green. May need to get a mow in after it dries out.
  10. It’s kind of hard to see in the pic, but it’s showing we got 2.17” of rain since midnight. High gust of 27.3mph (not great placement for accurate gusts) and a high temp of 49.3 (39.9 at midnight).
  11. Have we reached a few hours after sunrise yet? Asking for a religious friend. High of 32.2 here so far today.
  12. That 12/23 storm that rolled through made for some serious spring clean-up work last year. We lost the biggest and lowest pine branches off a group that's far enough from the house to not be a concern but it took days with a chainsaw to clean them up. The pines close to the house sound similar to yours in that they're bunched up and somewhat protecting each other. It can be unnerving to look up at them during those windy storms. The 4 I mentioned are just on my property, the abutting property has a lot more and a couple could reach but if that happens, it's a bad day for everyone! Got to be some serious event for that to happen. Good luck tonight!
  13. Unfortunately, I've got some big pines real close to the house. Four on my property that could be a problem with a robust N/NE wind which we thankfully rarely get here.
  14. OUCH! What kinda place you running there?
  15. I'm concerned it's going to be a generator-ational event. Got plenty of gas and the generator already staged but would definitely prefer to keep the lights on.
  16. Not sure what your back-end access is with respect to the forum or how that part works, but looks like those links are currently supported. https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/476730-embed-xcom-posts/#comment-2961605
  17. Had one of those in our front yard in Deerfield in the early 1980's. That tree plus a slingshot yielded endless hours of entertainment!
  18. Accuweather's wind advisory page is cutting Great Bay in half. Is the implication that the immediate coast will likely not see higher winds? Or is this more a matter of you gotta draw a line somewhere?
  19. He had a couple good sized trees come down in the mid-Dec storm. Ground is still saturated up there and with the 12" he got yesterday, he's thinking things could get hairy tomorrow night. If they get a few inches of snow before the flip, it'll be interesting to see what he holds onto.
  20. My brother in Wolfeboro just sent me this screenshot from 3:14pm. I'm thinking everything will be more north of there. He said he's been checking various reports all day and they're changing by the hour:
