No power, no phone, no internet.  I was smart and called Verizon this morning figuring this would happen and changed temporary to a daily unlimited data so using phone as hotspot.
 25% of the NH Coop does not have power and backside winds are just arriving.  Lots of gusts into the 30's but peak wind so far 42mph
 This is not going to be a quick power outage.
 

Hvy rn and gusts to 30. Big difference compared to an HR ago

About a 5 min quick burst of a shower came thru, 0.01", Winds picked up with that to 16mph and now dropped back off to around 2 mph.

same. going to naples to check on the boat ropes....just in case. And maybe stop and get a pop

Jealous of all the rain out west

Other than some decent gusts, this is a nothing burger. Precip knocked down again, maybe 0.5". Good training for winter 20-21.

Still haven't purchased genny for the transfer switch we had installed couple months ago. Unless we get 40+ gusts, I doubt we lose power, but if we do my wife is gonna kick my ass for not buying the genny already.

The SSE wind direction can get quite damaging, I'm already dealing with a couple of the lakes regions Marina concerns as there docks face those directions and have advised them to take necessary action to protect the boats that are tied up at least on the ends of them and move them closer in where they won't be exposed, They can handle gust in the 30's but that's at there limit.

naples marina full. don't think jimmy has any room to move boats in. Glad mine is pretty close to the shore.

Isaias looked better last night, It's been a constant battle with this cyclone fighting wind shear and dry air which looks to still be the case again this morning.

Knock down those rain totals I guess

Ok. Nice.  You're a bit further west than where we stay in Mount Vernon just west of Belgrade Lakes.  Similar-looking topography perhaps your area is a bit more mountainous.  Our lake is at about 400 ft with some 800-900 ft hills surrounding it. 

Took this shot last night down by the fire pit. Thought it was kinda neat.

Nice, I see more in CNH moving east, Maybe we grab some of those if they hold up.

Yup, 7-10'd, 0.01", The line blew up once it was east of here.

Grabbed 0.47"

0.47" in shower. Surprised we got anything

Ha, that might be better.  At least he won't give up any home runs.  Just walks.
Half of the Marlin's team has tested positive for COVID after more positive tests today, yikes.  This won't last long anyway.

Taking it sweet time here to cool down, 77/69.

You and I probably both have soil problems. It doesn’t really matter if it’s wet or dry my lawn is tough to maintain. Crabgrass looks fantastic right now though.  Bright green! 

I thought I was mistaken with my 5.5” since June 28 but local wunderground station at the community college down the street is 6.4”
We wet here, complete opposite of June. 

Nada for storms as expected. Can't wait to have to drill another well for the house

Low of 70 here yesterday, only the 2nd 70+ minimum since moving here in 1998.   Had 71 on 7/19/2005.  Low-noise TS 7-7:30 last evening, futzed around for 20 minutes then about 2 minutes after I finished grilling burgers, the skies opened, about 0.30" in 10 minutes, total cocorahs report 0.45".  Noted 2.4" RA in Hermon, one town west of that BGR funnel, and 2.5" in Dedham, 3 towns SE.

I'm not holding my breath for any t showers today. I know how those pan out for us. High and dry till next week.

I find it hard to believe that you enjoy running in this weather. There’s like no oxygen in the air. 

went cycling last nite. Normally on hot nights when you're riding up to 30mph you get the breeze across your face. With the dews last night, it was like riding into a hair dryer with the added sweat.

Far away from sharks. It’s pretty nice up here. 
 

Still wicked muggy. 81/69
