Cold Miser

Be fair...Maybe 2.5 seasons up there?

I had an owl suicide bomb my car 2 nights ago. Thing was huge. Didn't have a prayer though once it hit. I got out to see if it was o.k., but it died a slow death in front of me...staring at me with those creepy owl eyes.

I was in college in RI those 4 years and while there was some snow, I recall the rain and misery mist being the seasonal trend for many of those winter months (I nicknames Rhode Island Rain Island the entire time I was there). Awful. I was living in DC from 93 through 97 and I remember coming back to school one of those winters, either 93-94 or 94-95 and Newport to Bristol were buried when I came. Cars were literally buried like you would see after a Boston blizzard. I think it was a series of storms that just never missed R.I.

Nothing quite like tug hill over to stillwater in winter, especially when the temps and wind are just right.

You've probably already seen this site, but if not, it's got great cams on the hill: http://www.northernchateau.com/northernchateau.htm

They mentioned 7 on the news yesterday, but I am not sure if that was before any confirmations from this week. Either way a total wet dream come true for Wiz.

??? How did the circle of trust comment make this your response?

We need more of this.

Kind of like this one with "Banter" in the title, which coincidentally is where most of the hype, endless summer, and endless winter references are made?

I'm not a big beer fan, but I go to brew woo in Worcester with my friends in the Spring and it's a pretty good time. Real good atmosphere. Looks like they have a Fall version too: https://brewwoo.com/

If that's the case then 75% of this forum would require the ban hammer and/or weenie tag come mid winter... especially when the season is not acting in proper seasonal form.

"accurate" = Odd choice of word. I commented on that earlier.

Lemon trees for all in the north woods of CT?

I expect a true Autumn of yore coming our way. ...Just wait for it. It will come.

Yes, people do come to this site to see what kind of info they can take away from the discussions. Taking the hype aspect out of the equation, "Accurate" is tough word to use when dealing with weather predictions. During a particular event we will see variations on forecasts with some of those variations being very different from each other. With that being said there are a few here whom I look to for specifics for my location. Sometimes I will even text them away from the noise of the forum when I am looking specifics. Other times I just follow the bouncing ball within a storm threat/ forecast page, taking away from it what I can. Yes, it is easy to get lost in the nonsense, and hyperbole. As frustrating as it can be for some, especially if people have their predisposed hopes up for a threat that does not amount to what they expected, I can see how what they perceive as nonsense can piss them off. The never ending summer posts are another example of this. People have to learn to tune out what they don't want to see. Kevin, like others expresses things the way he see's it. Some will argue that he's not a met so he should put a lid on it. Maybe it's his agenda, or whatever to get under people's skin, but in the end it's just weather. For the most part I like the way things move in here. You learn not to get hung up on peoples opinions. Kevin is one of the guys I contact outside of the forum since he has a pretty decent record for East of the River and along and north of route 6 locales, at least with me.

Definite days of yore topic that will be discussed at length over growlers of homemade mead, and corn cob pipes while sitting in ye olde' pub 'n' grub for generations to come.

I agree. I just happen to live in a super insulated, tight apartment, with a ceiling fan above my head. As long as windows and doors were shut I was only slightly uncomfortable at times. I just never felt the need to drag-ass up to my house to grab a window unit. ...This coming from a guy who hates, HATES, HATES, HATES!!! humidity and high heat.

Viking days of yore?

Stay tough Steve. Hoping for speedy recovery en route after surgery today. We need you to help tame the endless heat and high dew talk.

Maybe, but Flippity floppity (i.e. Kevin) would be Robert The Bruce. ...One day as King of Cold the next day as Sultan of sweat.

Jezus. I guess there can be abbreviations for everything.
