Our CR-v had $3k damage. Lots of thunder now. Probably one of the better severe days of the season today.

Just had an impressive hailer move through. Kind of spooked me given the car damage from 8/4/15.

You did it right-kudos to you!

I haven’t seen prices drop in this town (Brookline) since I moved here in 1992. During the previous bubbles they’d flatline but never drop. If they do, so be it but it would be the sign of something worse than we’ve seen since I moved back here from LA in 1991. I am getting inclined to cash out and move out towards GC though.

I guess it depends. We bought this house for nearly 100k over asking 7 years ago. We’ve picked up 600k equity since. And we were able to because we sold our other home for an absurd price over asking. This town has been ridiculously high for decades. There isn’t land to build on. It’s surprising given how much remote work there is but tons of health workers here close to the big medical centers and many with high enough income to afford it. This is a national crisis actually. Home ownership has been a cornerstone and I wonder whether or not someone with no help from parents and modest income can do it in MA. Young families on my street are moving into $2m homes. How is that possible if you’re not from a wealthy family?

Pope melted. RE is not absurdly high outside of Boston area especially NNE.

I think it’s a dry summer relatively which should enable some spectacular heat vs normal expectations. I’m going with 37 AOA 90 for BOS and 3 AOA 100.

I’m calling for the hottest summer on record for us. Hopefully we won’t be rationing electricity..

Long range eps says enjoy the warmth next week-it will be short lived.

Week of 4/12 onward definitely looks nice. Hopefully that holds. We’ll be in Chicago that week arriving late Monday the 11th. If a rogue bd shows up hopefully Chicagoland can avoid it.

Has dropped minimally at Costco. 3.95/gallon at today’s fill up which I do about 1-2/month.

Are we ready for the wheel next week?

Warm but overcast. I’ll take it over the Monday and Tuesday crap we had this week.

An all timer for sure! One of my things is to go to different concerts of these old school guys. Heading to Lake Tahoe to see Jackson Browne in September. Seger is all done touring it seems.

We're 2 days away so here's the link to the April thread.

Looks to start a bit bumpy but there's some evidence that the 2nd half is really nice with AOA temperatures. I suspect typical crap first half of the month.

Cold with full sun the last few days of March is impressive. A lot of missing data on the big climate sites but I’m surmising most finish mildly above for temperatures in March. 2012 did not walk in this year....

My first stop was at the Grand Canyon. It was comfortable at the rim but hiking to the floor and then back was brutal!

When o was moving east from LA, I stopped for a coffee at a McDonald’s in Needles, CA with the temperature that mid July 1991 day being 115. Standing outside drinking it I got my share of looks!

Thank goodness! Roy sang weeks ago George.

I was delivering for people in the Tenafly/Englewood area. Must have been 120 in the non ac truck. I sneakily enjoyed it while complaining.

1966 showing in some of those records. That was a very hot summer!

Morning pee run and I noted snow otg. Back to sleep 2 hours and gone by the time I got up. Cold but with early spring sun angle it doesn’t feel all that bad. Did not use my heaviest coat. I’ve been saving it before bringing it for its annual cleaning. May need it tonight though.

Very few would save $20-30/week. Our taxes aren’t high enough. Costco still under $4/gallon. Saving $20-30/ week would need a person using 100 gallons/week. At 20 mpg that’s 2000 miles/week!

And my original post didn’t say they did. I said governor proposed it and legislature said no.
