  1. Heading out to mom's house. Turned the heat on in truck.
  2. 1.26 here. Gauge is crusted over with bird shit. Had to check a neighbor's.
  3. I don't know about the flies. Seems to be heat related for me. My closest neighbor is a dairy farm about a half mile away and the stench of the silage has been overwhelming in 90 degree heat, too. I'm not in Roxbury- I'm just next door in Woodbury/Bethlehem. But I watched that cell from my hill, passing just south of me. The cloud to ground lightning was severe.
  4. I had the swarm yesterday and the day before. Whenever the outdoor temps go over 85-88, they seem to appear. I killed 52, and went through a bottle of Windex cleaning the windows. Got this "outdoor" trap at the hardware store yesterday for $9 and set it up in parlor under a lamp, overnight. By this morning, I had over 40 flies in it, and none flying around.
  5. Beautiful morning. Wall of heavy dense fog at 900'.
  6. Enjoy the sunshine today. Will be the last time we see it for 7 days
  7. Getting totally destroyed with lightning and rain here in Woodbury/Bethlehem. Lots of cloud to ground. Minimal wind here, but 50mph gusts just to west.
  8. Tip's sun angle works great on the south side of structures. But the north side of my house is icy tundra. What makes it worse is that's the side of my property where the drainage occurs, so it's layer upon layer of ice build up on the sloped driveway, with very little melting during the day. I often wonder why people don't consider such things when they design homes (or why people like me buy those homes). Give me one more blizzard (ice-FREE), or send me into May.
  9. Good meltage today. Getting tired of the ice and dirty piles around here. Don't hate me for that, but I'm ready to turn the corner after the last two weeks.
  10. I think we're done here. Then the heavy rains will melt the ice before the winds start pumping.
  11. Yeah...and looks like winds start to really crank around 8pm around us.
  12. 28.2 here too. I was wondering why my wind reading has been 0. My anemometer is frozen solid.
  13. Even my hickories and oaks are struggling in this. Totally catastrophic.
  14. Very happy for you guys. What do you have on the ground/pack?
  15. Heavy rain/sleet here now. Freezing on contact.
  16. I texted my plow guy and told him not to come. Gonna wait for the heavy rains to flush it out.
  17. I was cocked last night...left both sets of keys in the truck and didn't park in barn...can't open up doors.
  18. Temp dropping. Down to 25.8. Radar filling in to SW. This is going to be extreme.
  19. I have never seen this much ice accretion. Rock solid 1/3" over everything. 2.2" snow. 26.5F
  20. For us, it's all about getting enough tonight to preserve the damage the rain will do. If we end up equal, it's a win.
