You're going to be surprised at how well you do in your new house, used to have an office in Westborough and they always did better than me and I live west.
As cool as it was having a good snow storm in October is was a royal PIA, no power or internet, couldn't work for a few days, lost a freezer full of meat. I have a genny now but wont shed a tear if we don't get another one.
I usually see spiders around my house and basement every year. One year I didnt see any and thought it was odd. It was a long humid stretch in August and one night coming home I shined my flashlight on the foundation and there were hundreds of centipedes. My foundation was literally covered with them I bought some WP Demon and sprayed the foundation twice in a week to finally get rid of most of them. Wiz would have passed out at the site of centipedes.
They have my town as 6.5 inches, I had more than that but its probably because of my elevation compared to where they take official measurements. went without power for 6 days, don't want to relive that so I bought a generator.
It wasn't asphalt shingles it was polycarb panels, I told the guy to put some adhesive in addition to the screws but he didn't, Ill have to get him back to fix it the right way. The new asphalt shingles on the rest of the house held up fine.
Lot of power out around me, I got lucky this time. There was a huge dead tree across the street that looked like it wanted to snap and it would have landed on the power lines.
