I’ve had that guy in fantasy football past few seasons and he’s an absolute beast though when it comes to top line stats. Big numbers weekly. No idea on his personality though .

West wind at surface under a NE wind aloft will crush the west side of the crest. That’s a classic highly blocked flow... @backedgeapproaching might be white tomorrow morning too? I’d be surprised if that wind profile allows for enough propagation eastward to Mt Snow and Stratton? Isn’t the spine down there more like Woodford? Guess I’ll have to look at the sounding, but it’ll depend how far up in the atmosphere you go until that west wind backs NE... because it’s hard to get the upslope band to work west when fighting NE flow above it.

Toss me in the club of folks who have boxes and boxes of cards from the early to mid 90s. I think my parents donated a bunch of them too, but I know there’s still a lot of Topps MLB cards.

About to get wet at 2800ft. Damn rain keeps ruining the afternoons, ha. Need more Stein.

Gonna get more wet... right where it's apparently needed.

And? Be interesting if some mangled flakes are flying around in the high ground in the morning.

Some flakes for the Massif?

Good healthy 2/3rds of an inch of rain past 24 hours. Nice steady soaking. Now we take a break before another round of 0.50-1.00 moves in this evening and tonight. We are going to explode green after these couple rainy days. Can already see it in the fields and grass, the color has stepped up to a full spring green. Need leaves though. The buds look like they may want to go soon.

Ha.

0.51 so far upstream on this WNW flow... good soaking for some our recently seeded area (this morning) but still will take a dry low-humidity day over a wet one anytime.

Traveling abroad you get a very different vibe than people are jealous/care about us... people seem to watch the U.S. because it's so entertaining, in a controlled dumpster fire type of way. But they like the quiet countries. It's funny, they assume we are all pompous assholes. Hard to see where they get that opinion from though.

Could see his neck recoil into his back on the side view... that was a direct hit into the mask. Definitely looked like his knees got weak.

Congrats Yanks on that 2-0 lead against Baltimore? Edit: And I eat my words as Gio hits a 3-run homer within 30 seconds of posting that. 5-0. Troll fail.

Yeah man I don't have to deal with that but certain empathize with you... I'd hate them with a passion with glasses. My wife went to contacts almost solely during this because of that. She prefers glasses but it's easy to see how fast they fog and how much it sucks.

No argument there. Like I said I’m not going to wear one as soon as I don’t have to, but it’s not an inconvenience either. It’s just something that happens and easy to see how the Asian cultures got to that point after running through a few of these sicknesses/outbreaks in the past few decades.

Yeah probably wrong phrase... normal. But maybe not. It just doesn’t bother me I guess. Like putting on a seat belt in a car, or wearing a hat and gloves outside... go inside a place and put a mask on. Walk outside and take it off just like walking inside and taking a hat or gloves off. One can easily see how it happened in the Asian communities after they went through Swine Flu and others well before COVID hit here, we just hadn’t been exposed to something like this before... the mask just becomes something they don’t notice and is big in those cultures. It’s not China per se, it’s left over in cultures that had pandemics before. One can see how masks may linger in the US from this like they did in Asian countries.

Lots of indoor time too. I sell it and you hear about it when I’m giving weather obs but I do spend a lot of time inside, payroll, hiring, etc. Especially now with the season done it’s a lot of office stuff. Also if we are solo in an office without anyone around, mask off. Only a couple others share my space and it’s pretty chill, lots of alone time. But the mask has never really bothered me at all. I’m weird like that. The beard helps keep it off my skin and probably renders it useless, but it’s comfy, ha.

Oh yeah, mask indoors. I never had a problem with that in the least, pretty simple thing to go on with life IMO. Wear a mask at work but don’t even notice it to be honest. It’s what got my buddy from the other day so worked up... how it doesn’t piss me off in the least. I’m not going to wear it if not required but it literally takes up zero of my thoughts during the day. But I guess that’s the point people make... life is normal now with a mask on, lol. Don’t even notice it inside anymore. But wearing glasses must suck with that thing. Outside of this thread, this is the only time I’ve even thought of COVID today and it’s the only reminder aside from masks that it’s going on, ha.

Yup that’s what I’ve been saying... been over for a very long time if you don’t turn on the news. Or read this thread. This thread for the past 2 weeks has had me think of COVID more than the previous 2 months combined . Go to the movies with the wife, eat out, get drinks out, etc.

Weird look south of SNE with those clouds.

It’s going to be fun to watch a truly elite pitcher. Maybe they’ll get a couple hits? His last start was pure dominance. In his first four starts, he set a new MLB record with 50 strikeouts, mowing down nearly half the batters he faced. He has also batted in more runs as a hitter (2) than he’s allowed on the mound (1).

Pouring up here. Stein’s webbed hands are failing and ruining my evening, ha.

65F and nice up here.

Ha nope, just as long as no one sees you disrobing. You are free to wander naked through downtown BTV. I mean, that’s why I moved up here. That and that it’s legal to pass cars even with a double yellow line. Tons of weird obscure laws up here.

In Vermont yes. You can’t take your clothes off in front of people (stripping) but if you leave your house or car in the nude you are free to do so. I remember some 20-something year old girls were nude in front of a school in Montpelier (?) as they walked around town, and police couldn’t do anything while parents lost their shit. “Vermont's flip-floppy attitude on public nudity can confound newcomers who learn that, though it's legal to be naked in public, it's illegal to get naked there. Vermonters can let it all hang out outdoors — provided "it" was already hanging out when they left their home, car or place of employment.”
