Cold Miser

...just making waves like I do. I've been to 3 of the Monday gatherings in the past 5 years. Definitely not optimal date, but the turn out has been good in the past. I am not sure how the Monday thing started, but I am think it has something to do with Jerry and his schedule. The Monday Christmas gtg has been his thing. I will try to make it when ever.

Gearing up for winter here at Public Works.

There are still only 2 voting options, and the 17th is not one of them.

...Some flakes falling now. ...I will get out and make a snow man later and hopefully bust out the snow shoes.

But, IDNMAIDNGAFIIMF

In Weymouth? Nice.

lol. "That first one". Some flakes blowing around with the leaves doesn't quite qualify as the first of anything except for just that...a few flakes flying around. Not even in the same conversation as the weenies who pulled out legit first of the season/ or the second season of the season snows. You were on the sidelines while the big boys were out playing.

This fact is duly noted and will be secured within the catacombs where the ancient sea scrolls are stored.

lol. Already throwing in the towel.

Would be nice if we showed up during another bachelorette party again.

I am not in CT

Definitely on the road. Is thicker now. If I could take a pic I would .

Max. Posted speed on 89 down to 45mph. Traffic pace is about 35 to 40 currently. Cars off the highway all over the place. A good .25 accretion on the road surface where I am right now.

Sh*t just (kinda) got real. Some accum. on side of highway and multiple cars off the road.

On Brown U. rugby bus heading to Hanover NH right now. On Rte. I-89 in NH . Sloppy, nasty rain, snow mix right now. Gross.

Yup. Makes logical sense. Seasons in seasons.

Yes. I meant NH.

I might be up at Hanover, NY for Brown vs. Dartmouth rugby mid-day Saturday. Forecast seems to be hovering on high 30's and rain right now. Looks like snow early in the morning. Should be nice and nasty.

I'm in.

What was the approximate diameter of the eye just before the storm made landfall?

Much of this line of thinking comes from the way most people's brain's process things, particularly with regard to occurrences that are not necessarily set in stone and that they are unable to truly quantify. People take whatever info they hear on the radio, or see on websites, twitter feeds, and the t.v., and that worst (or best) case scenario becomes instantly ingrained within their conscious. The weather/ news outlets are partially to blame as well. I think that the producers and those behind the scenes know how easily the public can get hooked on an event, especially if the extreme outcome is laid out there. When Michael was making landfall I was at the gym, and within a 90 minute span the storm went from cat 4 to cat 3...but, all that CNN was noting was that the storm made landfall "Near Cat 5". This headline went on for a few hours after that. The whole, "Near Cat 5" was almost all they were focused on. They WANTED so badly to keep using that has the headline. Just say Category 4. On the other hand there are reasonable minded people who are able to take the data and logically sort through what is given, and knowing that forecasting is not an exact science not become so biased towards one outcome or another.

That is impossible during the month of heat and humidity.

Those were the days.

What is that image supposed to be that the route number is on? Looks like a Vaseline jar.

Sun like days of yore?
