  1. Love it. Parents can stack in the kids in the back and quietly enjoy a relaxing drive up front.
  2. Straight raining now, ha. Line of showers moving through. I’m all set with the SNE pattern.
  3. Low clouds, mist and drizzle. 64/61. Days and days.
  4. Yeah it’s the only appliance I’ve ever got extended warranties on. Our washer broke within a year of getting it. Took two weeks for a repairman to get the part and put it in. Covered by warranty but man two weeks without a washer in the winter with daily ski clothes sucked lol. Running to the laundromat every like 4th day to make sure base layers and socks are stocked up.
  5. Pretty sure he’s only got one foot left at this point.
  6. 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.
  7. 7-10 split on that radar. Seems like it still should’ve soaked?
  8. 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.
  9. I remember looking up those infomercials when his picture first showed up on here, dude loved his damaged buckets. Learn something new every day!
  10. Ha I had no idea what that guy's name is. Now it makes a lot more sense.
  11. 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?
  12. Ha this is the desert up here. CT and MA flush out 6” of water by lunchtime some days.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. Lots of thunder now. Looks good hitting the Champlain Valley.
  16. 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.
  17. Ha. Spaceman Spiff from Calvin and Hobbes.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. That was close… a grand slam there by Vladdy Jr makes that game interesting again.
  21. 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.”
