Germanweenie eh? Do you run the ICON out of your basement?

Only 177 more days until May 1st!

Anecdotal but quite a bit of white visible on Killington this afternoon as we drove south on 89. Looks like they've been blowing full force.

I don’t ski but would turn up for some apres action. A mini NNE get together.

Ray just flipped you off for bringing up the king of his Fraud 5

The great flood of 1927 was right around this time of year too https://www.weather.gov/media/btv/events/1927Flood.pdf

Just heard an unconfirmed report of someone being killed in Stowe by a tree.

My colleague's husband is a Stowe PD officer and was called in early this morning. He says Stowe is bad right now.

Got this from a local TV web site

From the WCAX web site. Lamoille County seems pretty hard hit https://www.wcax.com/content/news/Heavy-rain-outages-reported-throughout-state-564208281.html

Very windy here. I was just up at a meeting next to the KMPV ASOS, which appears to be off-line at the moment, and the wind was blowing open the lobby doors of the building we were at. When we left we drove through a very brief shower of what I assume was graupel/half melted hail?

How does a town "postpone" Halloween? Does it mean no official events or are they arresting kids who go trick or treating on the 31st? Raiding homes who give out candy on the non-official night?

And you'll get it down just in time for torrential rains to wash some away.

Did you do your medium chunk at a time calls last year? I seem to remember you had a good run with that a couple of years ago.

Last year was just about perfection for me. Cold but not -30 type stuff, constant snow cover and plenty of events to keep it fresh. Now, if I could just flip a switch to skip mud season, All would be right with the world.

Agree. And then when the kid gets old enough and takes an interest in the stuff you enjoy, it gets even better. I will admit there is a several year lull though.

As a Dolphins fan, this hurts.

I like MCM.

I try to keep the heat off until 11/1 too but I had a cold and was shivering to beat the band and had to break down to get warm. It's off again now.

You know it’s only going to take a few warm days before he says something like “It looks like Ginx and Scooter get exactly what they were wishing for. Winters shot. Brown and warm ally the way through!”

I don't need that many HP. The non-turbo would be plenty for me. I think that's 90hp. My Jag has a 4 stroke 1100 and it works fine for me. The addition of a turbo packs a lot of stuff into a small space under the cowl.

That big black trailer out front was tricked out with just about everything, as it should be for that amount of $$. I have a 12' hybrid that I like a lot but would like a 3-4 place one. That way my wife could ride more than just from home. I'm always sort of in the market for a sled upgrade. Never a brand new one but for a good deal if I think it makes sense. I'm kicking myself a little over the deal I missed out on in Epping. A dealer had a 2014 900 ACE with 5400 miles on it for $5K. Had just been serviced. I wasn't ready and didn't have a trailer with me to bring it home. I think that would have been a great option for me. Those ACE motors are bullet proof. My wife and son both have 600 ACEs that are great. Oh well, looks like I'm with my 2007 Arctic Cat for another year.

I didn't even see any above that, only above the treeline on Mt. Washington. I think PF said the snowline was around 2500' on Mansfield so I was basing my hopes on that.

I saw those lights. I don'y have a heated shield or else I would have bought one. I really liked the $20,000 trailer outside, pretty sure my wife wouldn't have appreciated the 2nd mortgage I would have had to take out to pay for it though. lol

My shift started at 2:00 and went to closing. Too bad I missed you. I always like that show. It's just the right size for me. Not so big that you get overwhelmed but big enough to be interesting.
