  1. Well, settling into our new normal doing some bike riding and starting to clean the house. Slowly. I could live with weather like yesterday and today for a month straight, see what y'all can do about that would ya.
  2. In all the chaos leading up to being stuck at home I forgot to check the oil, doesn't it figure that the last cold shot with snow is the night that we run out Not sure if we can get a delivery today but they said they'd try otherwise I have to go out and get 5 gallons of diesel. I really don't want to go anywhere right now.
  3. I have birds fly into the windows pretty often. We have a big picture window that kills a half dozen a year and injures many more. The sunroom windows get beat up by birds flying into them, I think they see the plants inside and go to land on them but find a sheet of glass in the way.
  4. It's dumping, honest low vis wind driven winter goin' on outside.
  5. I'm hoping for an inch, well, not really but if it has to be sloppy I'm gonna be optimistic. Dynamic storms that have a radical flip aren't uncommon up here with 4/1/97 being the king in the last 20 years.
  6. No Whole Foods will get some, not like usual but, between that and the seeds I have I can get started. There are a few farms I can ride by that might have seed potato and garlic so that's part of the plan. Hardware stores are considered essential and will be open so will they do their usual, will HD and Lowes? I know a few people in the food delivery chain and they are talking about shortages in some categories, mostly peripherals so far but that's fluid. Grow your own
  7. In 07? No, the last 3 frozen precip events were all sleet.
  8. Yeah I'm just worried about food supplies and such so wouldn't mind getting a jump on it. I know it's too early but I'm not real comfortable with our current situation.
  9. I could go wash the car if you think it will help. Nah, already tapped into the beer stash. After this round of cold it kind of looks like spring wants to spring. Time to get things planted yet or will that be a waste because we are going to get another shot?
  10. Big? In context I guess but nah, not so much. It's nice and crisp today and it looks like tomorrow morning ought to be downright cold ahead of this storm, I've seen worse setups that's for sure.
  11. ^^You went to pick the kid up from school? Are things starting to leaf out along 17 yet? I feel so out of touch with things because we're essentially trapped in our little worlds now.
  12. Looks like some seriously heavy rain rolling through. What's going on in Poughkeepsie and just north? T-storm or just heavy rain?
  13. Still stick season here 35 miles to your NW.
  14. That was the worst period... The last 3 storms of 07 were pure sleet and the first storm of 08 was too. I don't remember ever expending so much effort to move frozen material out of the way. It was like picking up a shovel load of ball bearings which, as you might imagine, is a pretty challenging endeavor.
  15. Why don't you just go away. Isn't it obvious to you that nobody wants you around? After all these year and all these times of getting bounced don't you think a wise person would just leave because they're not wanted? IOW split kook
  16. Looks like the last of it finally melted off. Like Rob said at least we're on the board for March.
  17. Nice little half inch on the ground. @Animal how much did you end up with?
  18. Snow! I woke up to look out at 4am and it was coming down pretty hard. Woke up now and the place is covered, well everything other than pavement. Easily .5" makes it the most in 2 months. Nice surprise
  19. And then again Thursday morning.
  20. Snow in my P&C for Monday night
  21. Where are you still flying to and from? Are you seeing the empty planes that my friends that do a lot of business travel are talking about?
  22. The mosquitoes have been swarming and are really aggressive so far this (short) season. Thankfully I'm seeing no ticks yet but I hear that they've been really bad in southern NH.
  23. I've seen a couple of places that said it was a hot box problem. The pics from this morning are ugly.
  24. Well the wind and dry air has done wonders for drying things out quickly. I had a super fun 73* mt bike ride today on ribbons of hero dirt. Where were you?
  25. Lucky. All I got was flakes and wind. Still have the wind which is good though, it's time to dry things out.
