Onshore wind all weekend? Not sure about the amount of sun we see, but at least looks mainly dry.

Monday isn't a weekend day anyways. (well at least for me)

No. One of my oaks is shedding leaves already. Only one in yard.

First two bags of leaves filled for the fall season

Go Mariners

China pledged to being carbon neutral by 2060. So coal should be going away anyways.

Yeah I don't think tornadoes are part of the physical risk analysis. Cyclones, floods, etc. are though.

Can you provide the report this is from? This is connected to the Task Force for Climate Related Disclosure (TCFD). TCFD defines climate-related risk as either Physical or Transitional. For physical risk, physical risk can either be defined as acute or chronic. Acute being weather as we know it, but with the increased ferocity of weather events that is expected to be realized as the climate changes. Chronic being connected to rising sea levels, changes in precipitation patterns, etc. Transitional risk centers around identify those financial investments that may ultimately be stranded as the economy transitions from high- to low-carbon intensive. TCFD is designed to assist financial institution with also identifying opportunities for sound financial investment in changing economy.

I mean honestly...as long as you don't end up as the regional minimum....you shouldn't be mad.

I mean.. the storm isn't even a threat to Bermuda.

Taking quite a while to get the chill out of the house this morning. Quite crisp.

Incredibly frustrating round last night. First hole: tee shot way right into wrong fairway. Fortunately stuck my wedge over the trees to 8 ft and made birdie. Second hole: hit tee shot even further right into a pond on adjacent hole. Scrambled to make bogey. Third hole: thinned tee shot from 135 ten yards long. Flopped over a bunker to 5 feet and missed the putt. Fourth hole: three putted from 15 feet for bogey. Nearly broke toe by slamming putter head into it. Fifth hole (difficult par 3): stuck my tee shot to 10 feet (first time hitting green all year) and made the putt. Sixth hole: topped my fairway bunker shot. Wedged to 15 feet and promptly three putted for bogey. Seventh hole: birdie putt left 1" short Either hole: standard par Ninth hole: standard par +2 37 with 2 birdies, 3 pars, 4 bogeys and 1 nearly broken toe.

Missing out on the good stuff today here just north of the border. Maybe salvage an OK afternoon to uninstall.

What’s the acronym? AEMATT?

What a cute localized rain event for eastern mass crew

The number and variety of mushrooms that I have is impressive.

Played 36 holes yesterday. Thought the dews were terrible. Swamp a$$ type stuff. Just miserable. Bring back those low dews.

Can you chip around the greens? If so, take your wedges to the range and start by hitting 15 ft chips to get the feeling. Then slowly but surely with that same “chipping motion/feeling” increase swing length and speed. For the most part that’s how I hit my wedges (unless I need to go under/over something). Open up front foot and hip and make a big chipping swing. This is also my mid-round go to if I am struggling with my irons. Nice rhythmic chipping swing.

Was just about to chime in that its pretty tough to get severe in the Northeast when the sun doesn't come out. Been overcast all morning here.

Two thoughts....New England averages what...6 tornadoes a year? There would represent a lot of capital spent for an unlikely outcome. Also....chasing in New England is impossible. You're only hope of seeing anything is to park yourself on a big lake, golf course, hill, airport or beach and watch as the storms go by. Then forget about ever catching up to them again.

Still waiting for my overnight derecho to come through first.

There have to be papers out there that discuss how cold frontal passages in the northeast occur at 2 am.

Timing for Wednesday frontal passage looks a little late...?

This. Give me 75/50 hi/lo for the next 2 months. Then 55/35 in mid November.

Cute derecho last night. Probably a dozen rumbles of thunder with 2 good ones.
