  1. And bos had 96. Your old Wilmington location averaged close to 50% more and you ended up with 20% less. So our individual perceptions are borne out by that statistic.
  2. For me, I only care if Logan jacks which almost never happens. If. I get 14 inches and they Jack with 20 I’m happy. Conversely, if I get 6 inches and Logan gets slop I’m a little annoyed.
  3. So I woke up early today (well 8:30...that’s a couple of hours early for me considering I typically put the book down and turn off the lights at 3-3:30AM). Tons to do and traveling tomorrow evening and need to be out of the house by mid afternoon. Anyway, I took the doggie in my long pants and a sweater with a jacket over and it felt cool....and I daresay wonderful! Critters are active, squirrels are fattening by the day, and I think we have a few signs of a potential blockbuster winter ahead. Not going there yet as there are some caution flags for sure. But today I’ve made the transition and I’m happy. One year ago today on my way to the work parking garage I turned in my PIV card to security, drove my car out of the garage and started my path to freedom from the intensity of a relatively high profile job taking up 50-60 hours per week. Unfortunately family illness required about 1/3 of the past year in Chicago. Should hopefully be different this winter. I’m excited!
  4. That’s why I prefer 1993-94. One quick melt around 2/1 with a fast reload and repack.
  5. My guess is your average summer might is about 10F cooler at your elevation vs most of SNE. Here it’s pretty much required.
  6. In normal times, if you’re selling your home anywhere in SNE and parts of NNE without Central ac or splits you’re going to take a hit. Window units are less efficient and with all the issues everyone here mentions.
  7. Loud awakening this morning-bangers announcing the end of summer. I’m declaring shorts season over. Oh there will be days here and there but as a default, once 70s are the minority of days, I go long. Long pants socks moved back in, shorts socks out. We now start peering more intently at heights in AK.
  8. Squirrels are extraordinarily active and already rather plump. But those lying’ muthufukkas have fooled me for the last time!
  9. Ok folks, time to find the jackets. I’m flying to ORD Thursday evening but it appears warmth lingers there....
  10. 2014-15 had everything work out just right. That in itself is rare. Arguably the pattern Will was touting produced amazingly. But Scooter’s tantrum set it off!
  11. You guys are whacked if you think dews are over. Yeah maybe no more 88/70 but plenty of 77/67 in our future. Autumns are warm, sustainable winter is weeks later vs my youth. So relax until thanksgiving.
  12. It appears that your weather in November the winter will remember....
  13. Most of sne had huge departures and all of Boston metro had >100. Even the cape got buried. It was a perfectly timed pattern with storms. Ironically in mid January BOS was way below normal for the season. So imagine how epic it was from the 1/23 storm through February when >100 fell in many areas.
  14. Well Logan airport right on the water measured 110 inches in the winter of 2014-15.
  15. I guess what I’m saying is that there seems to be potential for an extreme year but to me not enough evidence to call it.
  16. To each their own. It makes sense to attempt to manage conditions naturally first. Working in a healthcare setting I had to get annual flu shots. I almost never get the flu anyway-maybe 3 times in my life. The one time I got it after a flu shot (3 months later and confirmed with testing) it was relatively mild-I was 71 at the time. Treating my bp was a no brainer...my mother treated hers starting at age 32. I at least got to wait till 49. Statin at age 69. I do take a ton of supplements but that’s because I’m a little crazy. My daughter is lactose intolerant. Ultimately she became a vegan and looks and feels great over the past 2 years. I have to have my fish though and half and half in my coffee. My downfall is i kind of have an iron stomach-I can eat anything and it typically doesn’t bother me. Humid tonight, ac back on for a day or 2.
  17. Perhaps. I think there’s a wide variety of potential on both sides-more so vs most preseasons. So while consensus suggests serviceable there is ratter potential-but there’s also epic potential.
