  1. Is that when you went on a Jebwalk around the neighborhood and your wife went looking for you, thinking you were dead in a snowbank?
  2. Wholesale change time. Beslow’s computer model is like the GFS. Cora has run his course. Let the young guys play.
  3. Nice to see a few multi-hit games in a row. He hits the ball hard when he does.
  4. C’mon now, you don’t want to roll the dice of having 4 more months of autumn or hitting the jackpot like this?
  5. Yeah I’m always joking around. There’s good temps for every activity. There’s a sweet spot where you can do all recreational activities and swim, like in the 80-85F range.
  6. Ahhh you are likely thinking of patchouli oil? That’s the hippy smell. Patchouli is strongly associated with the hippie counterculture of the 1960s and 70s, where it was used to mask other odors and as a symbol of a free-spirited lifestyle. You do smell that from time to time.
  7. I take a handful of granular snow saved from winter in bags in a chest freezer, and rub that on my body every day. That’s the homemade version of Old Spice “Mountain Fresh” deodorant.
  8. I have zero idea what incense cologne is .
  9. Yeah, it’s definitely not the hot humid sweaty smell of BO mixed with endless bug spray, while getting attacked by half a dozen deer flies in stagnant hot air, as folks try to walk, run or bike outside.
  10. It’s really just how tied you are to water activities. At the beach, this is horrible. But really nice otherwise for just about anything else.
  11. 69F at 12pm. Folks biking, fly fishing, running, hiking, golfing, Recreation Path looks like I-89 with traffic. No one sweating. Swimming is likely the only activity missing.
  12. We “breaking out” too. A brighter cloudiness.
  13. Ha I’m sure it is, was more a joke as DIT says suns breaking out and then you post a satellite that looks mostly cloudy at best, full overcast at worst.
  14. I’ve always kept the 518 upstate NY signal. It’s like a badge of honor for where you came from, ha. Even 20 years later, still have the same number. It’s an interesting social experiment, from physical addresses being a specific phone number, to every person being a specific phone number. Like a social security number.
  15. Did you read that on Twitter? I just get excited to see some people still look at actual model data from actual model sites.
  16. It’s his first time here. It takes special social awareness skills to read the room.
  17. Is DIT really 61/54 right now at 4pm? Yikes. 73/53 up here.
  18. All I could think about was, hey it’s hot and I’m uncomfortable… but imagine having to perform with high energy for two hours straight in HI of 100F. Dude was using a towel to dry himself after each song. Major props for performing in that.
  19. What's interesting though is that it is still plenty cold enough to snow at those departures. It gets close, but it's just cold enough in the MVL climate. Dec '23... +7.8 (37/24, mean temp of 31F) Jan '24... +8.1 (30/17, mean temp of 23F) Feb '24... +8.4 (37/15, mean temp of 26F) Average... +8.1 So despite being +8... the climate is such that it is still salvageable for snowfall as the mean temps are all below freezing. What's crazy to me is a +8 in January is still a solid 30/17 month that averages out well below freezing. Add in elevation and the mountains are certainly still cold enough for snowfall even at those departures. However, I go look at BTV, which was averaging around +6 to +7 during that time, and their mean temperatures show a more difficult to snow profile. Which likely fits with a sharper low level gradient that winter.
  20. MVL had two back-to-back winters of really high departures. Though '23 - '24 took the cake. MVL ASOS departures... Dec '22... +5 Jan '23... +10.7 Feb '23... +4.7 Average... +6.8 Then... Dec '23... +7.8 Jan '24... +8.1 Feb '24... +8.4 Average... +8.1 Those '23 - '24 departures are so consistent for 3 straight months.
  21. Wife and I went on Monday night (her idea, of course). She’s a big Hozier fan. It was pretty rough. But survivable lol.
  22. Any specific station or you mean the entire state as a whole?
