  1. I wonder if I’ll see a comet and aurora at the same time? That would be rare indeed
  2. Down here in westchester NY. This one actually looked a little better the one before it.
  3. Got the basic purple sky going here. 2nd time in my lifetime I’ve seen it. Last time was like 1983 or so.
  4. Yeah we only saw a tinge. Can’t get to a good horizon view or low light pollution in time. Oh well
  5. I can address both questions: Nothing. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
  6. Almost dead nuts normal to slightly below. Early start for you this year. We will likely be riding the omega train this winter though. This is your time.
  7. Yeah and mosquitos return while I’m putting up Christmas lights.
  8. Aint no shotgun seat on a sled. Its called riding bitch.
  9. Great . Cool fall and then pattern flip right around december 23.
  10. Anyone into the comet thats coming? I’m kinda excited to see one naked eye. I remember hale bopp, hyakutake, haley. This won’t be as good its the one we got rn.
  11. BTW I got a swarm of these gnats in the neighborhood and I think some others here were sayng the same thing. These bites do not go away holy shit. Itchy AF. I just did that thing where I scratched until I bled and now I’m dying I want to saw my leg off.
  12. Who heats with wood pellets up in here? I was doing some repairs (the motherboard nuked itself last Spring - I mean a real asteroid strike in circuit board land) on my stove and started thinking about how many tons of pellets have put through that thing since I got it in 2011 - averaging over 5 per year, looking at 70 + tons probably. Feels like a lot - but probably the wood burners here have that tonnage beat easily. It is my main heat source, and I also have oil and mini splits for heat as needed. Hardly use the oil - only when the pellet stove breaks or pellets become scarce. Its pellet hoarding season now - one of the winter leading activities I enjoy - sore back notwithstanding.
  13. Don’t think so. The cat looks to me a little smaller than the fox in this trials-of-life shot taken from the same camera, slightly different position. No one has gone out there to try to put an object on the same spot as the cat though. More later…
  14. I was just going through my ipad pictures that have snow or winter tagged and I had better see some this year. I will travel to outer mongolia if needed.
  15. BTW this is not in downstate NY in my sig, this is western upstate NY. Moose and bears have been spotted in that yard so its kinda wild.
  16. We are trying to do some science to establish size. I know the property pretty well since I grew up on it. I’m about 50/50 either way and thats pretty much consensus. More later.
