    I'll take sensors wherever I can get them. Edit: Weather sensors, weather sensors...

    I'm learning Italian for a vacation later this year, and my language app is throwing phrases at me that use demonstratives. Just got: La primavera é in ritardo quest'anno Foreshadowing 40 and sheet drizzle in the months to come?

    I would say verbatim it's a net gain for most of NNE. I still have 5 weeks of indoor golf league left, after that we start worrying about melting the pack off.

    It's frozen, Dendy could work with that.

    Kirkwood Mountain in CA has a sensor by "Chair 6" gusting to 209 mph in the last couple of hours. That's dangerously close to taking MWN down as the tops in the USA.

    I know. That's what I'm saying, there are more ways for 11-15 to suck on the warm side than there are to be good on the cold side. So yeah it may actually feel like warm verifies and cold does not.

    I look at it like cutters. It doesn't matter if it cuts to BTV or cuts to ORD, it's still crap for most of New England. Likewise the pattern doesn't matter if it's +5 or +10, it's still likely crap.

    4.8" from the initial WAA yesterday brings me to 45.1" total. We've managed to stay just ahead of normal (37.5" for the date) just about all season despite a torched January.

    From the very end of the Knife's Edge (we didn't hike it but walked over to the start of it just to peek) and that second one is actually Baxter Peak from Hamlin.

    I'm now looking up how feasible trips to Torngat and Gros Morne would be from Maine.

    I've always thought getting a cabin on a lake up in PQ for a week would be a very relaxing vacation.

    Moosehead is definitely starting to get into that zone where the trees are all a little smaller and you start to feel like you're getting towards the edge of the Earth. I can only imagine what the tundra of Quebec must look like.

    Definitely no weather equipment at the top permanently (maybe one off research projects at times). Closest you'll get is weather data from Chimney Pond ranger station, and even then I don't think any of it is online in a timely fashion.

    I mean the views are killer.

    Those days of having family memberships to country clubs are even slipping away. Not many people have that kind of disposable income. I'd love to do it (and my wife is even on board with the idea!) but it comes down to $3000 plus monthly food vs. a vacation or two (or more likely preschool).

    Over 1000 pages, but if you want an inside peek at the Sharpie incident NOAA dumped a big FOIA request last night. I read through most of it myself (a lot of it is multiple pages of FWDs and replies). Weird to see people I know/have met getting wrapped up in a FOIA request.

    Natural disasters can really do a number. The golf course in St. Thomas is still up for sale (~5 mil if anyone is in the market) after Irma/Maria. Miss one season of golf and I'm sure they couldn't make payments too.

    Then I lead by example. I've had this phone for at least 5 years.
  20. OceanStWx
    A little surprised you even have bottoms on.
  21. OceanStWx
    My point exactly here. You are allowed your opinion on environment because you don't care about owning a phone, but I can't have an opinion because I do. If you want to go down with the "climate change is natural" ship, by all means brother.

    Nah, he's a moderate because he uses carrier pigeons to send emails.
  23. OceanStWx
    Because I use a cellphone? Who exactly is the extremist here?
  24. OceanStWx
    Ah yes, a classic. Because we participate in society we can't also want to improve it.

    That's the point I'm making and the article is making. We need collective action with government solutions too. Otherwise people will buy old cow pastures and level new growth to build their own solar farms. Guy bought the land and made the investment, that's market forces at work.
