  1. I've always been a fan of roundabouts but this one isn't as good as it could be. The merge zones are way too short, curbs almost intrude to the point that if you're forced to make a line correction because someone else screwed up you'll probably hit the curb and the lanes are borderline too narrow if towing a long trailer like so many contractors do. I've always enjoyed the goat path but take 403 as often as not now because most people are too stupid to handle the new layout.
  2. I wonder if the new piece of Rt 6 by Camp Smith is raised enough to stay dry.
  3. ? Duh, yeah only when it's stirred up. Apparently the lights were popping but the moon was crazy bright. I don't have the patience to sit there running a long exposure shot to get a pic of something I can't actually see.
  4. Maybe I'm just a wussy but I don't like being chilled in my own house, it just bugs me. It also makes my back feel like shit and I don't like feeling shitty. Heat goes on at 65 when the house drops below 60. We need an old man shakes fist at clouds emoji
  5. Very. I rented a black pickup and it was dark brown the first day and a dusty beige when I left after 3 days. To be fair it was parked on the mountain at Whiteface and in a dirt parking lot at Mt V. Between Mt bikes sliding around and thousands of spectators there were clouds of dust hovering over the racecourses all day.
  6. If you stretch that back to 8/1/24 what's the total precip?
  7. I was in Saranac, Placid and the ORDA resorts for the World Cup races 10/3-5. It hit 88° at Mt Van Hoevenberg on Sunday.
  8. I kicked the heat on when the house hit 60° and was still dropping.
  9. 28° here tomorrow night? I wonder what we have left in the oil tank??
  10. Yeah but when I left there late Sunday night it wasn't 100% full. It was bright enough to drive with the headlights off though so that was cool.
  11. Yesterday I was up in Lake Placid at Mt Van Hoevenberg and it was a pleasant dry and dusty 90°
  12. So all this rain really did is wet the surface. Plants that are still in a growth phase, like my raspberries, are happy but the soil is dry an inch down.
  13. Yeah that didn't count, just a few hundredths.
  14. .35 for the day so far. Hopefully that incoming line will drop a fair bit more.
  15. .07 If you only went by how soggy it is out there right now you'd think it was inches... The raspberries are loving it though
  16. The differences just a mile apart are pretty interesting, I'm at .2, a half mile away is .3 and a mile is over .5. I think my peppers appreciated it, there's noticable growth since yesterday!
  17. I never lived far enough from a school to take the bus. There were some crazy cold walks and the wind off the water was always in your face. The good old days...
  18. I mean, it's kinda nice to be able to look west and see it snowing up the hill and drying out as it gets closer to you. It's cool weather to watch. lol
  19. I always hope when it dries out like this that the mosquitoes won't be as bad as when it's wet. It never works out that way They're still so bad I have to wear pants and long sleeves in my yard.
