  1. Yeah I basically have almost stopped alcohol altogether. It has a negative effect on my BP. I eat very little red meat and not much poultry but lots of fish and beans. I love broccoli and kale and all the other stuff most people hate. My downfall is cheese but try to keep it in check. Rare beer, rare gummy, but mostly I try to walk at least 5 miles daily. Gonna try to get an indoor gym set up for winter-too risky on icy walks but ok with pure snow. My main health issue is a head tremor which I’m working with a neurologist to try to control. It’s familial and the main issue is that it makes me self conscious.
  2. Understood but SAD is real for some. Since my schedule opened up I don’t experience the discomfort as much since it’s light when I get up and I’m not indoors as much during the day.
  3. I think the most important difference between us and most European countries particularly Italy is the strong and lifetime bonds of family.
  4. Well in fairness I was using GFS derived products so I think we’re talking last each other. Definitely an autumnal feel this evening.
  5. 10-15BN?... https://wdi.geos.tamu.edu/wdi.php?station=KOrd+&productCategory=model&dataType=NEWMRF&timePeriod=l We’re no where near that much above also. Did Kevin’s climo concepts seep into you?
  6. Not denying that but for most they work. It can be much more severe vs your mom’s symptoms and even potentially deadly. But if people understand the potential and monitor for symptoms that’s enough. For most people they are arguably life extending. I started at ago 69, monitored carefully and nearly 6 years later I’m symptom free with an LDL around 50, total cholesterol 155, have always had high HDL hence the late start.
  7. Only in selected people. For most they’re kind of wonder drugs. I wish my father had the benefit but he was born too early.
  8. I think I read it when I was about 13 hiding it from our parents...lol.
  9. 576 heights or higher in all of SNE does not a cold pattern make on 10/3. Also, 8C at 850 translates to mid and upper 60s which is not subnormal for the first week in October.
  10. Hopefully the euro is right. Let’s get cool around 11/20 and stay there.
  11. 1994-95 was active but warm outside of the Tip alluded to deep and short lived cold snap after the one good storm that imby flipped with a net gain of 2 inches but we had 6-8 down in the initial hours. MLK Weekend was warm per memory-I remember talking a. Long walk in just a tee shirt MLK day. 1997-98 was going to be good but super ninos don’t work for anyone. I do remember the potential wasted that winter and the 12/23/97 event was really good. Tom Chisholm reporting on the fact that it was snowing hard by 7:30 AM telling viewers not to worry, the strong December sun will bring bare ground by afternoon. Never to be heard from again...lol.
  12. Yeah I was commenting from the mby perspective. 2/25 had promise but watching Todd Gross hit Boston hard while ACK flipped back to snow worried me. Sure enough, we just missed the good stuff.
  13. Kind of looks like an ideal getaway for anyone desirous of being completely off the grid.
  14. I don’t think 1998-99 should be lumped into the big ratters. It was sub par for sure but it had some good moments.
  15. May have to end my shorts season after the upcoming week-at least as a 100% default.
  16. That’s kind of 1995 for me. My mother passed 11/29-the day of a nice 3-6 event. We flew to Rochester and spent 10 days there. Lots of LES. Came back to the great winter of 1995-96.
