A friend of my wife's told her it was snowing in Williamstown earlier. Not sure I believe it though I guess some graupel is possible

The tree that almost hit my house was a rotten old birch.

It's been legal for a couple of years, you just couldn't buy it or give it as a gift. All you could do was grow your own.

Hmmm, a quick 9 holes later this afternoon might not be all that pleasant.

Ended up with .62" at MPV. The pattern has changed. It may still be dry in south of here but there is no doubt that things have changed.

It was a close call.

Just had a tree come down and miss the house by about 6”. Scared the bejesus out of us. Looks like it was punky partway up the trunk

When I was about 11 years old, I decided that I would surprise my dad and clean up after a BBQ without being asked. I dumped the grill contents into the garbage can inside of the attached garage. We were then sitting on the porch talking to a neighbor, ironically about a series of fires that had recently been set in the area. The neighbor says he smells smoke we rush down and sure enough the garbage can was ablaze right next to the 77 Buick Electra. We put it out before any damage could happen but needless to say my dad was not overly happy and I learned to be very sure that all coals were completely out when cleaning the grill.

Definitely worth the drive in the off season.

I actually like going to the grocery store later in the evening. My regular Sunday routine in the summer, when we aren't doing something, is to do whatever stuff that needs doing around the house during the day then go over to the golf course for an evening 9. I'll hit the grocery store on my way home. I'm usually there around 8:00 p.m. I thought they made a mistake reducing the number of hours they were open as it caused more people to have to be in the stores at the same time.

DIT is now sobbing in the corner.

Like this

When you choose the image from your phone, choose it's size. I use medium most of the time but large can work as well.

49°/49° at the nearest PWS 0.29. They are on the other side if the hill from me but that seems about right.

Just the distribution.

Oh how we (me) pray this is a sign of winter precip patterns.

Seems like it

I just turned the heat on. Currently rainy and 47°/46° here

Now you know why it’s called stick season.

Happened to my cat last week. Hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and Dawn dish detergent.

Yep, rapidly heading towards stick season.

FYP

Good rain for the entire state

MPV reported 3.40" in the last 24 hours. I didn't realize it had rained that much through the night so I went and checked the CoCoRaHS site for my county. Knowing Stein had been slayed must have allowed me to sleep well.
