  1. Missed me by two miles. Numerous reports of trees into houses in Montgomery according to the Orange and Rockland County Fire page on Facebook.
  2. And what a pop that is, as you know. During the tropical storm about an hour after I got power back, only out 4 hours that time, I heard that exact noise but didn’t realize what it was plus my power didn’t go out. I wondered if the Red Coats were attacking! The next morning I saw two fuses flipped on the line that goes to the pump house at the river thanks to a branch laying on top of them.
  3. I guess that cell had rotation as per Hudson Valley weather.
  4. After the first two jump starts, one before work and one after, we got the battery replaced and yet it still wouldn’t start. The wife called our mechanic son who said try jumping it again even with the new battery as it could be a voltage issue with the starter not getting enough because it’s shot or the wires to the starter are messed up. Sure enough it fired right up when I jumped it for the last time today.
  5. Nice. Luckily no damage or anything in my yard. That last cell rocked just north and east of me, many outages out this way thanks to that. I got to jump start my wife’s car three times today, once in the rain, winning! Got home late, didn’t get dinner and then lost power. I’m too tired to wrestle with the generator tonight, just hope the power flips on tonight or add to my morning list run the generator before jumping the wife’s car again to get it to Formula H. First world problems, I know.
  6. I'm hoping for a whole lot of noting later IMBY. Saturday could be a soaking rain for a while at least.
  7. The dead ash trees are a very common sight over in this neck of the woods too.
  8. Yeah, the whole area could use some sustained periods of rain instead of a deluge in 20 minutes or less. Would think that forest fire danger is creeping up there now too.

  10. Absolutely. Its been a warm summer for sure but IMBY, nothing notable as far as record highs or heat waves, just a lot of well above average. In 2013 for example I had 14 70 degree lows, I average 4.9 lows of 70 and its only been 2 thus far with only 6 90 degree days.
  11. Triple D is a good show...always makes me hungry though...
  12. If you’re expecting a response from BX you’ll be disappointed...he’s busy watching a Hallmark Christmas movie as he gets his green and red jammies on
  13. Well I sure as hell didn’t take it! @BxEngine says you refuse to come north of the Tappan Zee...fake news?
  14. How many others wonder what’s going on when they see a topic is “hot” here only to realize Liberty Bell is online?
