  1. yeah, gonna stick with the ariens 8/24... they've done us good for over 2 decades with this one and previous one lasted since before and through 78...may be able to salvage mine just haven't had time to get into it yet
  2. good skid steer! was looking at a new ariens for this season, mine is over 20, but drive spring is broke and getting at it is a bitch, and my dad's is even older and not zero turn so it's a workout using it... not totally opposed to shoveling tho, except when it's a dumpage! the cub cadet looks nice too, ain't looking to spend over a grand tho.
  3. ,4" and some decent lightening and thunder, now watching the clouds roar by as the temp is dropping.. currently 45, down from 56 high earlier...real nice pink sprite like lightening color too... looks like maybe above 1k gets some cat paws soon...
  4. 2.16" final here, early afternoon was tropical storm like, pouring rain and pounding leaves...nice piece to watch thanksgiving week eh?
  5. most oaks we have keep half until they start to bud and leaf out in spring, why can't they comply like the rest and just drop already.. damn, that's crazy... when I was in Waterbury I used to blow them to the curb and the car wind would take most away... here we have to bag and bring to dump, they don't offer service for it, kids enjoy the piles tho.

  7. yeah I argue with my dad every year about this, why do it 5 times when you can do it once and be done...we consistently get 30-32 bags, and that's with a quarter I save mulched for the compost...
  8. I was going to say the same, at least for the NW hills avg, I had gone back from 28-now, at the closest cocorah station data shows we're avg over 80 here, and that lines up with what I've been averaging since moving here.
  9. so who's got the prize for top gust thusfar? i saw 64 but didn't scroll through all the pages...btw, got into an argument with someone today when I said noreaster, they said we don't get those until winter...ha, what happened nearly to the day 10 years ago I said??
  10. anyone have to offical most recent obs for NYC? they been ripping all day and night, just deform training
  11. mod to heavy now, gusted over 25 last half hour, 10-15 still sustained, just shy of 2.0"
  12. winds picking up in this squall, just gusted over 25, sustained at 10-15 now, 1.15" so far, was expecting 2-3", see what the next few hours brings.
  13. heavy band incoming, approaching 1.00", still have yet to crack 25mph with a gust, sustained around 10... my barometer is not reading but my knee tells me it's been falling
  14. so far, .70" of rain here, highest gust was 18, less than 10 sustained... and to think how insane the news made everyone yesterday rushing the stores around here, thinking the sky was falling. even my dad, knowing I've been following and studying weather for the better part of the last 4 decades, still watching the news and parking his car away from a 200 year old tree... unbelievable
  15. about 3 here in boxborough, only about a half an inch when I left winsted at 5 this morning...but the drive in, from about belchertown to auburn was a nightmare, then up 495 it wasn't bad, until I got here, then goose feathers put a couple inches down in a matter of less than an hour, just mod flakes now...congrats on those under that band, good April dumping, reminds me of I think 82, or 83, when we got hammered during spring break..
  16. 4.5 hours to boxborough from Winsted...
  17. just recorded a 43 mph gust...18 sustained, outta nowhere it came roaring in
  18. it'll be gone by the time I get back, at least I trained my wife how to properly measure when I travel, the last year it's been a LOT too, because nobody wants to do work, but not complaining, as long as they don't take away the ot I'm good with travel and running 5 programs at once. miss the fam tho
  19. wish I was there to see it...unexpected business trip to the boxboro, my second home for the last two years...
  20. never saw a flake here in boxboro... now rain washing my truck
  21. wife says 3" on the level now rain in Winsted
  22. I'm up in boxboro today unfortunately but wifey says 1.5" otg new in Winsted as of 1430. just some pellets and a few drops here off 111.
  23. what's up with the bung hole over wtby? i mean it kinda fits...
  24. believe I'm at 58.8, I'll confirm once my laptop cooperates... I'm 20 under avg for since I started taking obs here and I think about 25 or so from the average of the spreadsheet I sent you going back to the 30's.
