There’s irony to when some folks who long ago stated it’s over, we’ve moved on, no longer pay attention to the news, it’s only the afraid that still care, etc but then still discuss it 24/7 still. But COVID affected everyone differently. But then again this thread is the only place for COVID talk or news if you truly do not pay attention to the media.

Half inch of rain is the new dusting.
-
7-10 split on that radar. Seems like it still should’ve soaked?
-
0.52” in the Stratus from the thunderstorm earlier… might have added a couple hundredths in sprinkles and drizzle afterward. MVL ASOS looks like 1.08” so they got into some good rain rates just north of here on RT 100.

Dr. House knows.

I remember looking up those infomercials when his picture first showed up on here, dude loved his damaged buckets. Learn something new every day!
-
Ha I had no idea what that guy's name is. Now it makes a lot more sense.
-
At first I thought it was an auto-correct typo, but who TF is Phil? That gerbil in PA who gets high off his shadow?
-
Ha this is the desert up here. CT and MA flush out 6” of water by lunchtime some days.
-
Ha hopefully not a mess. 0.52” in the stratus from that. We’ve definitely turned wetter lately. I think that’s ~6.5” for July now.
-
Great wind on the front side… sub-severe though. I’d estimate 40-45mph gusts. Powers out in some parts of town but we still have it. Seemed the type of wind that drops white pines, ha.
-
Lots of thunder now. Looks good hitting the Champlain Valley.
-
Can already hear some rumbling.
-
It is crazy how bad the vis is with sunshine. MVL has been 3-5sm all day and here at the mountain you can basically see the neighboring hill but nothing beyond that. Can’t see anywhere close to across the valley.
-
That’s a decent line entering N.NY.
-
Ha. Spaceman Spiff from Calvin and Hobbes.
-
Raining here right now. We tried to avoid the SNE shitshow of rain for as long as possible but it seems it has now reached us, ha.

Days like today where maxes are -10 to -15 but minimums are high, often leads to a cold narrative if it were winter. When people are awake, out and about, it’s colder than normal. In the winter no one cares if the nights are warmer than normal. 23F instead of 13F, big deal if the high is 30F. In the summer the minimum temperatures seem to be used more by some as evidence of a “warm month” as opposed to the highs. It’s 62/62 here with 0.5sm fog. Drainages fog out quick in these setups.

That was close… a grand slam there by Vladdy Jr makes that game interesting again.
-
Ha for sure… you aren’t living if you haven’t lied to an employer at some point in your life for extra time off on a trip. I remember in my 20s spending an extra couple days with a girlfriend alone on her father’s boat sitting in a harbor in Newport (or Jamestown RI) because of a “car issue” and the mechanic said it’d be a “day or two to get the part.”
-
Yeah, need wins. Almost scary starting with an 8-0 lead. As a pitcher your mentality has to change or relax, can see it being hard to focus in a state of bewilderment. The Jay's lineup can score quickly too.
-
Red Sox... 3 home runs (including a Grand Slam) in the 1st inning so far. 8-0 top of the 1st inning. And still going. Feels good after that Yankee series.
-
Sounds like you need to fake a positive test to stay there longer. Just call the boss and say yeah, they tested me but I'm going to need to chill here on the beach for another 10 days. You'd almost think your boss would want proof of a positive test .
-
Yeah to each their own for sure. It was just interesting.
-
Yeah I could see a smaller isolated countries being more into it. I’m not even sure if it’s on the airline or the customs officers to check. My wife asked CBP officer at Logan and he said they don’t check tests and made it sound like it wasn’t his job. Maybe it’s on the airline but Delta and Lufthansa weren’t interested. Produced it at counter and check in person said I don’t need that. I’ll be curious to hear how yours is.
