  1. Pike's Peak climbs 6715 feet over 19 miles... Mount Washington climbs 4614 over 7.6 miles. I-70 does that 11k feet over???
  2. ORH is at 73.0F for the mean temp for the month. Still top warmest but that will drop a little the next 2 days
  3. ORH is actually AN for rain so far this month not including today
  4. Based on NWS forecast for the final few days of the month, it might slip below that...gonna be close
  5. ORH still at +4.4F for the month, but now only -.54” in the rain dept
  6. Yeah. Those places intrigue me. They have a season pass that covers all three areas now
  7. I'm hoping to try some driveable places I haven'tskied at yet. Basically within 2 hours. Not a big list but hope to knock out a few smaller places
  8. Wow. Watch that on a big tv. Those guys and gals are cuckoo
  9. First day back at work in person today. This is going to be a very difficult start. I was glad to be in my building It was very strange though.
  10. We drove up it 2 summers ago. It is really stunning. We had tried it a few years earlier but they closed the road at 4500’ or so due to ice. I climbed it twice in two consecutive days when I was a kid
  11. If this does officially reach a Cat 5 and landfall as a Cat 5 it would be the 6th in US history
  12. Lots of refining and storage there Largest refinery in the US
  13. How far back does that record go? 1998 is the oldest on that I would think 1988 would be in that top tier
  14. Port Arthur is heavily industrialized. Refinery stuff plus a nice hazardous waste incinerator. Big environmental disaster incoming on top of the life and property issues
  15. Sadly, my students will not be stinky and sweaty...or if they are I won't be able to smell them. Would Laura have any impact on that slug of heat?
  16. “Remember all the toilet paper we stuck to the year we had no toilet paper” doesn’t sound to engaging
  17. We remember singular events more than a constant drumbeat of whatever in most cases. I remember the 1978 Blizzard or the Monson Tornado or the 2008 Ice Storm I doubt I will regale my grandchildren with the tale of the Great Dewy Summer at BDL in 2020
  18. High of 82F here in August. OMG!!! Overall temps so far this summer have been very much AN. My pool temps attest to that. 3 90+ days here. I think 92 was my highest. Mostly good pool weather. Lots of AC use No record highs though 1988 I didn’t live here but that still sits in my memory as the most miserable summer for me temp wise
  19. We have been very lucky here with regards to rain. I never really got too dry
