  1. 1.3 total. I feel like I got lucky, just a few miles east is a mess. Oxford CT, Rt 34 is gone! 16.5"
  2. .75 so far today, looks like there's plenty more to come.
  3. 13.47" in Seymour CT! They're devastated in a large swath of CT, roads closed, roads washed out, mudslides damaged gas lines, whole downtown zones under water... It's a mess.
  4. Sort of but $. The RI coast is another silly expensive zone and it gets too crowded. CT and the Sound don't do it for me, yeah it's better east but not enough.
  5. ^^ Funny, every time Maine comes up in conversation I say 'hey, it won't be long until they have a 6 month long summer up there...'
  6. Yeah we have a similar conundrum, FL and TX are out of the question as is most everything south of I70 but we want the beach. We can't afford CA or HI (or Long Island for that matter) so the options are limited. Cape Cod is probably off the affordable list too so... ME or OR? ME is cold for too long so it's not really like being on the beach but it's also close to the mountains. Southern OR is high on the hit list too. At this point we're pretty sure we want the beach but I have to have ez access to the mtns and skiing. Could we deal with AZ or NM? Probably but it's kinda dry. Throwing it out there to see what the hive mind here comes up with.
  7. Wow, that ocean must be boiling with no storms drawing the heat out this year. The potential for an explosive storm has to be really high now.
  8. Some of those cells were pretty significant in CT yesterday too.
  9. ?? Your kind of temps or the kind that hoodie guy likes?
  10. Another couple hundredths overnight. Man is it soggy out there. My raspberries are all wet, heavy and laying over, it's gonna be a real pita (pain in the arms) to harvest them over the next few months.
  11. I need to drive west across the (entire) state tomorrow. My wife and kid will be following a few hours later. How bad will the conditions be? Is the wind going to be as bad further west as expected around here? This isn't a trip that can be delayed.
  12. Ended with 1.75. Yup, much nicer air for now but as soon as it warms up a little it'll be steamy.
  13. Nope, still raining. Added another tenth.
  14. 1.65, still raining but it should be done soon.
  15. Capacitor and fan motor both went bad. Lines were too small for the new units so those had to go and the 35 year old evaporator didn't have the capacity for the new systems so... That damn capacitor was over $700 by itself.
  16. 100 hours ago I told my wife this would head right up the Appalachians. Apparently that's exactly what it's doing, at least in this frame. Guess I'm pretty good at this stuff On the downside, she has a 2 day outdoor craft fair this weekend that's already paid for, hotel too
  17. Boy am I glad I don't still work in the city and have to drive home through that. Still dry here in Mahopac, dry enough that I got to mow the lawn for the first time in two weeks! I mean, it did drizzle for a while earlier but it got windy so I went for it. While I was out there the cloud deck lowered significantly and it started long rumbles as the humidity went through the roof. This beer is going down so smoothly...
  18. And by association those overly warm nights have added ~30% to our electric bills and killed our AC compressor. That was $13k I hadn't budgeted for
  19. Yeah it rained for maybe 10 minutes but was only moderate for a minute or two.
  20. Today's .03 doesn't seem like much but when it rains just about every day it just stays wet. I'm tired of mushy, soggy everything for weeks and weeks. I'd love 3 or 4 days in a row without rain
  21. Yeah CT has been getting hammered this year. There have been some great storms.on the western end that did significant damage.
