  1. We have been working on that since Irene. It's just hard to keep up. The story below is from last year. https://www.vermontpublic.org/local-news/2023-07-25/vermont-spent-millions-on-flood-mitigation-after-tropical-storm-irene-did-it-work
  2. Yeah, the radar looked like the boundary shifted a bit north. Still lightening off towards the northeast, like the Orange/Groton area.
  3. Yikes. That’s just down the hill from me. It’s stopped here for now.
  4. My wife is in Old Orchard Beach this week so that works for her.
  5. I don't know, when there is a tornado warning in the heart of the Adirondacks it seems pretty legit.
  6. This is what I’m hoping for. We don’t need any extra flood memories.
  7. That is exactly what I don't want to hear.
  8. I used to sing that to my son when he was in his car seat. He loved singing along with the “do, do,d da, da, da” part.
  9. My lips are cracking just thinking about it.
  10. Did a huge tour of NNE this weekend helping my friends move to Presque Isle, ME. Picked up the U-Haul in St. J Friday morning, loaded it up that day and took off at 7:30 Saturday morning. Ran into absolutly horrendous rain between Littleton and Gorham, NH. Flash flood warnings for southern Coos and northern Grafton counties came over the radio. Don’t know how much they got but I felt bad for the few bicyclists and hikers we saw. Got out of the rain and made our way over to 95 in Augusta. The loaded 20’ U-Haul wa somewhat impressive, I was able t keep it between 75 & 80 north of Bangor. At some point we got back into low clouds and misery mist, enough so that I didn’t bother taking my wife up to the scenic overlook of Katahdin. Got Presque Isle around 4:00 and got the truck unloaded. Then went to Elks club in town and got drunk. This morning we got up around 9:00, grabbed some Tim Horton’s and hit the road south. My wife had followed with one of our friend’s 12 year old Labs and so I had a way back. I had to drop her off on Old Orchard Beach for a week with 3 of her girlfriends. Got there around 2:30 and then I headed back home around 3:30 through Sanford, ME and Rochester, NH. Finally got home around 7:00. I’m beat and man’s did I see a lot of NNE yesterday and today.
  11. Helped some friends in Woodbury load a U-Haul for their move to Presque Isle. I was in the truck stacking boxes, it was an absolute sauna. Tomorrow I drive it to northern Maine. Hopefully there isn’t a lot of crappy weather to drive through.
  12. 80.6°/48.8° Pretty much a perfect summer day.
  13. I'd imagine you were pretty uncomfortable working in one all day.
  14. Right when I was about to go out and start prepping the deck for painting, I get a lake effect streamer pointed directly at me.
  15. With what KMPV recorded Saturday, they are bang in average for precip in June.
  16. Just .33” here. Didn’t make the day any less miserable but we’ve been spared the amounts you’ve been getting to the north.
  17. I couldn’t play in our club’s member/member this weekend because of my wife’s family reunion. I’m pretty happy I’m not out there chasing golf balls around. At least at the family reunion we had canopies to be under.
  18. It's in a strip north of here. Through the 26th, KMPV is almost bank on normal for precip.
  19. @RUNNAWAYICEBERGand any other world football fans. The Georgia/Portugal game was incredible. The biggest upset in a major tournament ever. World #74 beat #6. I thought Costa Rica beating Brazil the other night was pretty good but this was even better. There has been some quality games in the Euro and Copa America over the last week or two.
