85.4°/65° at the newly reinstalled PWS

Fricken Home Depot sent me the wrong railing for that and the front porch. The correct railing won’t be delivered until 8/18 The contractor has wrapped up everything else and will have to come back when we get the correct rails.

Finally got to point of reinstalling my PWS.

Somewhere in Gifford Woods is a stand of old growth/virgin forest. I remember reading about it years ago.

Thats a nice area too though. My boss' parents live on Lake Groton. I snowmobile in that area quite a bit and we will go to Boulder Beach a couple of times a summer. I also take my bike over to the parking lot at Ricker and ride the rail trail out through the State Forest.

Are you on Ricker Pond?

I was just being a smart ass by calling him Mr. Nut.

I wonder what Mr. Nut's credentials are?

I’ve posted this before but I installed mine on the corner of our deck. The main issue was it being only 8’ from the roof. We are in the middle of enlarging the deck so it will be a couple of feet further out when it gets reinstalled. It’s about 8’-9’ above the ground.

Stumbling around, delirious from thirst.

I feel like this is a deliberate attempt to provoke @dendrite

Is that where the ski area is too?

My dad always said everything is driven by the price of oil. He was an HVAC tech for 30+ years (it was called oil burner service man when he started) and his observation was that every time the coat of oil went up, so did the price of wood. Unless you can cut your own, the price of a cord will increase too.

I'm glad to see KMPV verified my 48° reading. After I posted it, I remembered that my PWS was taken down yesterday for some deck reconstruction. It is laying on its side on the covered front porch.

48.3°/46.7°. As @dendritehas pointed out, these temps didn’t used to be uncommon this time of year.
