    Yeah that’s the only problems bear really get into… they’ll take out a whole coop or flock. I’m not sure I’ve heard of bear attacking chickens just free roaming… but that thing will get inside a coop and go nuts. First time ever my folks had a big bear in the woods behind the camp in Woodstock, CT.

    Ha, they are everywhere and again, super shy but curious. Like large raccoons. No one ever gets mauled by a black bear. I’m sure you’ve seen the videos of like a bear coming up to a napping human, taps it or something and then freaks out and runs away once they wake up. Theres that famous video from somewhere in Mass that was made into a Ring doorcam ad.

    Huh? Bears are the most shy animals out there. I hiked into one two days ago. Thing just stared at me and then seemed embarrassed I was looking at him and turned away… walked down the path a bit and looked back again, then fled. I would 100% run into a black bear out of most other things. Moose are the mean motherf*ckers who will stand off with you. Bear just want to eat their berries and grasses alone.

    Rub some peanut butter on that, see if you can get a good reading of the environmental conditions inside its mouth. Bet that’d be pretty dewy.

    He has that lawn looking like Augusta National… I’d assume there’s no shortage of moisture either from a hose or the sky lol.

    79/52 It is amazing outside.

    I dunno, tree didn’t look that healthy. Some bare branches mixed in where those colored leaves are.
  8. powderfreak
    Yeah nothing abnormal. We’ve seen a few up here.

    Our standards seem to be getting high if 1.5” of rain is the barometer of worthy rain. A half inch will soak in nicely.

    The only trees that fall are ones near power lines in CT.

    Cold season with warm season daylight would be ideal, ha.

    At this point I almost have to check myself that you aren’t running some AI prompt “Remove radar echoes on this image when they get near the chicken.”

    I’m with ya today. Would’ve swallowed an uzi in January lol.

    Does not look to be stopping anytime soon. 12z HRRR has it ripping through 00z/8pm tonight at least with another 2-3".

    Some 7-8” amounts on CoCoRAHS just south of Albany in the Hudson Valley. That’s decent water for 24-hr period.
  16. powderfreak
    ALB with 4.95” so far.

    Peels all the soil off Mt Tolland…

    Another convective round to go in eastern areas. Healthy run.
  19. powderfreak
    What happens after that? No way there’s zero rain further east. Edit: Whoops, should’ve read the next few posts, ha. Folks have it covered.

    The good news with that set up is you pump humid air out ahead of it with good pwats and it won’t take much to tally up some quick appreciable rainfall in New England as the front lifts NEward. Though I haven’t looked close enough to see if it’s occluded by that point.

    Stick with the 6z Euro in the paper bag.
  22. powderfreak
    Yeah looks like another good soaker on the way down there.
  23. powderfreak
    Maybe it’ll be like usual where the weather does the opposite of your worries?

    Another nice day in Vermont, under that Mount Mansfield glacier… the fabled Picnic Table Icesheet.

    It’s nice now, sunset at 11pm last night and sunrise 4am. Winter must be a toaster bath of darkness though. Everything goes straight up from the ocean… and it’s wild the hanging snowfields above treeline (low treeline, like 2,000ft) up at 4-6,000ft still hang on through summer in areas. One local was joking that the natural snow up high that isn’t glaciated usually melts by mid-August and then two weeks later it starts snowing up there again to build the new snowpack.
