Surprised it took that long in Florida... I’d think you’d want most lines below ground too in residential areas of Florida.

Sitting in my living room getting some work done and the corner my eye sees this big black mass move right past the screen door. This guy moved walked within 10 feet of where I was sitting, like he was just wandering the outside of the building. The dog went apesh*t like she does and he started jogging away from us. He comes by daily at this point, but man, middle of the day and he was literally feet away from me through the screen door again.

They are game changers! Huge step up from CoCoRAHS.

That clip at 30 seconds is insane. How they survived that and kept filming. The pressure wave just rips through there.

Yeah I would’ve though cell towers would last at least a week if there’s a power outage. I mean losing cell service and data in two days after a big storm/event seems like a terrible idea. So many people rely on that, it’s almost life and death as landlines disappear.

Any luck?

Just saw Ryan’s post on FB about the CT cell phone towers starting to go dark as many only have two days of emergency battery back-up. Yikes. Society without working cell phones is like anarchy.

I think in the past Alex has said he’s near where I think that RT 302 marker is at the mouth of Bretton Woods. Thats an insane set up for very cold mins... bottom of the river valley but elevated at 1500-1600ft... with close terrain rises to over 2,500ft on all sides, draining cold air into that pocket. If you want to see summer frosts, that’s one of the best looking geographic set-ups you’ll find for massive radiational cooling. I bet the minute that little valley goes into the shade around sunset that open flat river basin drops 10 degrees in minutes. Even people living up those small roads up at 1,800ft probably don’t see anywhere close to the temps that pool just a few hundred feet lower.

His spot won’t be beat for rad cooling. He’s I think a little higher than you but right along a river bottom. Hes got like the SLK set-up... which is high elevation but at the bottom of a valley. Your photos look like you’ll have a more mid-slope climate. I bet the bottom of your hill or where the road is down in that valley between you and the Presidential's there was well into the 40s last night. Any stations to compare to down there? Even where I am and MVL, we can be at least 10F cooler at 750ft than 1,500ft base of the ski resort on clear/calm nights. 1500ft here is more mid-slope and stays mixed.

75/52 Mostly sunny. These are the days @PhineasC saw in the brochure.

My parents were telling me last summer the power crews did a whole bunch of work near them on like RT 197 I think... basically clear cut like 20-30 yards on each side of the road. Just straight wide open now. Sounded like the sun finally reached the road for the first time in decades.... but also sounded like that one stretch took them like weeks to do.

Driving through CT roads around Woodstock, even state highways, are like tunnels through trees. It's no wonder you guys have big issues... the trees are tall/mature and they pretty much overhang roadways with decent density for very long stretches.

They have been letting "essential workers" through the border for a while, people who live near there say there's an awful lot of traffic crossing the border for a "closed border."

He's gonna get off easy with these lower dews too... imagine a week of 75F dews with water just condensing on the couch and no power.

What he lives for... "The damage to the electric system in your area is extensive."

Breathe it in.

Gah it’s so refreshing out. Low of 51F this morning and currently 69/51. Finally some solid upper 40s to low 50s dews.

August view after the rain, breaks of sunshine and a rising ceiling. Looking south, clouds still flowing from convergence through the gap on westerly winds.

58/54 at 10pm... feels wonderful. Its been two consecutive days where it hasn’t been near A/C levels. It’s almost blanket temps on the couch watching Netflix.

You said it. Chilly almost given our recent acclimation to HHH. 58/54 at the ASOS.

I honestly don't know if I've ever had a Miller Lite. Our college beer was Molson... we wished we were Canadian, ha watching "Hockey Night in Canada" on channel 11 out of Montreal while at UVM. Coors was another popular one... but never Miller.

I still prefer Lawsons... Sip of Sunshine line has stayed solid. I just think others have expanded on that taste, but it was an original and certainly gets the job done.

A former Lift Ops guy up here who now lives down in CT had a tree hit his truck as he was pulling out of a parking space yesterday. Just a couple frame grabs from his quick vid.... South Windsor I think it was.

We've been at that stage since the beginning. They do what they want or they don't do anything. Either way they get roasted for it by some and praised by others.
