  1. Happy Birthday to @OceanStWx... hopefully enjoying a day of drinking double IPAs.
  2. Or does the fear of missing out follow him? . It'll be interesting to watch the QPF fears manifest in a new location.
  3. No frost this morning... 36F with thick fog. The solid frost at 31F we had a couple weeks ago didn't fog out, which seems to be the big difference here. Just above the fog layer in the 1,200-1,500ft range is a heavy frost though. Base of the ski area rarely decouples but it did last night, frost on everything.
  4. Haha no anger at all, just gratitude. Step away from the fearful angry life my friend.
  5. And back again! Haha. This is like when the power has been out after a big storm for a couple days, then it comes back on, only to have the power go out again a couple hours later so they can fix another line.
  6. Outrage always wins . If an Internet forum going down for a couple days is the worst thing in your life right now, you are doing alright.
  7. Nice to have cold weather back. Was 36F with a wind chill in the 20s this morning while opening the top of the Gondola. Should see our second frost of the season tonight or tomorrow night. 2pm and it's 57/39 in the valley and low 40s at the summits.
  8. Pieces of it will make it here if the core of cold is centered in Midwest, looks up and down to me but probably averaging above normal (which is a safe bet these days anyway to lean warm).
  9. Ahh right, but the IP address changed or something that wasn't expected I thought. Either way they weren't planning on it being that big of an issue was my take.
  10. Probably tough to give a heads up though when it's not scheduled down time.
  11. And not all air masses come directly over the Lakes. I still think NW flow orographics like downsloping off the terrain in CNE/NNE plays more of a role in modifying local air masses advecting into SNE.
  12. lol... it's only real if the jester of Tolland wants it to be.
  13. I'm on mobile, can't see locations. Where'd ya move to?
  14. Haha, it's funny because every single one of us replay past events to see how we would've fared if we move.
  15. Man the sun came out back here in NY and wow did it get humid/hot. The type of stuff where there's steam rising off the pavement, like walking outside into a steam room at a spa. Dews around 70F.
  16. I'm down in Albany at the old homestead and parents rain gauge has 2.75" in it eyeballing from a distance. Just torrential rain all night long.
  17. The irony is I feel like we ask you that same question all the time in the winter when you make a comment about a model.
  18. Forgot to post these, but earlier this week we had several days of awesome valley fog and undercast each morning. This was from Thursday morning while preparing for a zipline photoshoot. We are standing at 3,600ft at the top of the Gondola, with the summit ridge behind us at 4,000-4,395ft. Out in the distance in front of us is the Worcester Range with the ridge elevations generally 2,800-3,600ft.
  19. Yeah I'm sure he put himself in a location that enhanced the wind (ie near a structure or between two barriers), as I know how this works...they go look around for the best footage and locations that viewers will find exciting. Still though, I bet there's some embellishment but it's not because he's trying to get viewers, but because he loves exciting weather and was in the heat of the battle. You can never truly take out the inner weenie...
  20. 84/65 this afternoon is warmer and more humid than the climo norm in July here. Of course we had a low of 49F and excellent sleeping wx last night, but dews back to 65F with mid-80s is hot for mid-September. I can't believe we had a solid frost already and yet it keeps being summer.
  21. It's all been forensically traced back to flatulance caused by a roadside burrito purchased from a food truck.
