For DIT... firing burning in the root system of trees near Killington for 3 days now.

https://vtdigger.org/2020/09/21/killington-forest-fire-burns-underground-for-three-days-and-counting/

Under control and confined to 1/3 of an acre. sounds dangerous.

I must be missing something.

The local guy up here who works on my house said that the Town and Country Inn in Shelburne is your best bet. That endorsement may be a bad thing or a good thing. There are some really rustic folks up here and standards may be different...

I stayed at Carlsons Lodge in Carroll about 15 years ago. It was fine but can’t speak to quality now. It looks well kept from the outside. 

T&C is actually not too bad all things considered. great place to stay for a snowmobile trip

42 outside, 61 in the house with the windows open, AC units still installed.

stop starting these threads a week in advance and maybe you can make a better prediction than “maybe”.

It's not a "maybe"...it's weather...there is never any guarantee. In the case of convective forecasting (which is where my biggest strength is in forecasting), I love to start sniffing events up to 7-days out. There is no better way to learn more about weather than to spend time tracking potential through models and then watching everything unfold in real time. About 7-days out if I see any type of synoptic support for convection I'm intrigued and I will follow everyday. 

how’d this one work out for ya?

If you head up 93 thru NH, there are a bunch in the Derry area.  603, White Birch, my buddies at Kelsen, Rockingham.

Pipe dream isn’t too far off 93 in Londonderry

When John begins the heat thread , everyone should have a beverage handy 

For every time we read the words “Tapestry” “Opine” , “mortar”, “Cordelia”, “Nape”, or “Harv” we chug 

I’m going to be hammered before the end of the second paragraph

Anyone have any good suggestions to get rid of Chipmunks?  (besides a BB gun or a trap)
