  1. I didn't think anyone was calling us out, but I did want to make sure GYX was following my own advice before I started talking about it. Thankfully we no showers up here.
  2. Oh, you aren't topping that without some concession stand EF3 action.
  3. Congrats on your best convection of 2025.
  4. Had to check our forecast before I commented, but this is one of the thought processes that I go through during the warm season. Like two days ago I have no qualms about going "showers likely" but once you get to today I ask myself what public perception is going to be. Are they going to step outside and say it's showering, or it's raining. If it's the latter, I make sure I change the wording from showers to rain. To that end, I almost always go "rain" when PoP is 75% or greater.
  5. We'll see if those instantaneous rates start to tick up any. Right now the embedded stuff is just starting to top 1"/hr, so maybe 0.20" with how fast they are moving.
  6. Feels like we're way ahead up here too. I don't usually see leaves until after our oldest's birthday. But the maples are pushing out some pretty swollen buds now and I can see some green popping out of the peach buds.
  7. Asperatis. Still an active area of research, as it's a relatively new cloud classification. The prevailing theory is something along the lines of a stable base layer, with instability just above it leading to the turbulent look but wavy nature of the base.
  8. @Damage In Tolland traveling today?
  9. This is a teachable moment for the neighborhood. They all pulled up the driveway stakes 3 weeks ago, and ran the gas down on the snowblowers. Well the resident meteorologist did not pull up the driveway stakes.
  10. I love BGR being warmer than MHT because the backdoor goes so hard south.
  11. Nothing would really surprise me at this point. Everything is mostly focused on cost saving right now, but there is a certainly a strong feeling at the secretary level that we could generate some profits.
  12. We may actually be trying to sell it along with a few other leases across NOAA.
  13. Yeah, our techs were saying it's usually when the fan shits the bed. It can't draw enough air through the sensor and it starts to accumulate heat. You can see it especially at night there. The black dots keep drifting warmer (when it's usually less mixed than day) until it is fixed.
  14. The more sun the better, but mine is doing fine on the shaded side of the house.
  15. As long as you don't have any snow falling from roof issues, I have a Stewartstonian azalea that is a really nice year round plant. It never drops its leaves, but they become a deep reddish green in winter.
  16. No word of a lie, we had a forecaster take a trip to NYC once and he drove to NJ to go to Cicis Pizza because it was his favorite. He then moved to St. Louis and picked his apartment based on the proximity to chain restaurants. Net gain for GYX.
  17. I have neither the time nor the patience to go all grass all the time, but the clover drives me nuts. Most of the time it grows taller than the grass and the damn white flowers everywhere. The only time it has been useful is during drought when it stays green and doesn't go nuts flowering. I'm stuck with it though.
  18. Stopped in VT on my way to the conference and nabbed some Heady, Focal Banger, and Experimental Jet Set. Maybe Tree House on the way home.
  19. Hey @ORH_wxman, @AtticaFanaticais going to try and teach me something during the keynote at the Northeastern Storm Conference. I feel like this is a flashback to 20 years ago.
