  1. We drove to Newark for the direct flight. Some hassles involved now with getting tested here, and then getting tested there so you can get back in to the US but it all went smoothly for us. When you get the opportunity again go for it!
  2. We just got home from Iceland. Amazing place to visit if you love being outdoors, hiking, and beautiful scenery unlike anything else you have ever seen. We saw lava erupting out of the active volcano. Here's a shot of a really cool cloud that was rolling in continuously from the fjord to our right, then dissipating as it went down the valley and then got lifted by the mountains.
  3. Solid overcast and a steady SSW breeze keeping it relatively pleasant here.
  4. 47 delightful degrees when I woke this morning. Did I mention delightful?
  5. Yikes, that's pretty cold to be in the water all day in Old Forge. Thanks for posting it.
  6. Does Monday look similar? We were thinking about Water Safari but that looks pretty cold!
  7. 1.75 inches in about 2.5 hours after lunch today. Still raining.
  8. Crazy rainfall in central and southern Otsego County under that band as well. I happened to dump my gauge at 1100 today during a break in the rain. I'll go check the amount when this lets up. Our yard is flooded but the scenes from Morris and Gilbertsville look ugly.
  9. I've given up on dumping my rain gauge. It just rains....and rains more. All I can say is we have got a LOT of rain this past 2 weeks.
  10. Have to give BGM office props. We are their northeastern corner county, they could have easily gone severe watch over the whole CWA but they left us out and the storms skirted our western border and hit a wall. That's some precision forecasting!
  11. Looks like we just miss out here in Otsego County and with all the rain and storms we have had lately I'm OK with it. Enjoy everyone.
  12. Owl Head lookout would be perfect: https://www.lakeplacid.com/do/hiking/owl-head-lookout Indian Head: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/new-york/indian-head-and-rainbow-falls Indian Pass with kids? I wouldn't. My wife and I hiked it last week. There are a lot of open sloped wet rock faces that young kids would make make me very nervous on.
  13. Two nights ago it was sweltering hot at bed time. Last night I slept in winter flannel pajamas. Amazing ups and downs this June.
  14. My wife and I are up there starting Sunday night....if you don't report back in by then we will commence the search!
  15. Seems bizarre to me they left Otsego County out. I'm not sure why they did.
  16. Where would you start? I'm thinking somewhere just off I-90 with a long vantage point like between Syracuse and Utica and then follow it east?

  18. Wow that would have sucked. Hope they have better conditions today.
  19. Sweet! We hoped to come out for the show but I am stuck at work this weekend.
  20. Brisk! I left the house at 43F; I would guesstimate it was in the upper 30's down in the valley below. I was in a double layer top, light thermal cap under my helmet, and light gloves. No the usual June attire but a spectacular morning nonetheless.
  21. I was thinking of this map, showing when the hottest day of the year is likely to occur: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/news/warmest-day-of-the-year I am fascinated by how different the timing is for different areas.
  22. Loving it, we are going hiking in the Adirondacks the last 5 days of the month. Brisk, glorious bike ride to work this morning. 48F when I left home under clear skies and early sunshine.
  23. Where is that for? June is the hottest month in southern Arizona.
  24. This has to be a dream (nightmare). I woke up to 45F and drizzling. It was much warmer here for Christmas than it has been so far Memorial Day weekend.
