Great Snow 1717

I guarantee the vast majority of people here have never bothered to read the entirety of their home insurance policy....they will be surprised when they read the part about paying a certain percentage of the damage ... How many home owners have flood insurance??

I know several families who moved back to New England after experiencing a hurricane while living in Florida.. People in New England are ill prepared for a direct hit from a strong hurricane. They talk tough but that toughness would vanish once they realize that an Oct snowstorm is a flurry when compared to a direct hit from a major hurricane

Falls under the heading of people being careful what they wish for. The impacts will be far greater and far more long lasting than they think it will be. Why anyone wants the devastation of a redux of 1938 is beyond me. All I can say is some of them folk better have a plan in place to protect themselves, their families and their belongings..the hassle of finding people to repair the damage is going to pale in comparison to the protection aspect of the recovery....

While there are still some holdouts regarding global warming I think it is obvious that global warming is taking place. And yes the threat is looming..

Made me think of this... ..one of the best Christmas movies of all time..

The question remains...did you send out HAPPY POWER OUTTAGE CARDS?? LOL

Uhmm you failed to answer the question...

Did you also send out Happy Power Outtage cards??? "Wishing You All The Best With Your Spoiled Food!".....

Within 24 hours he'd be complaining about the power not being restored...

Difficult to say without seeing a photo....Hopefully it is not a deer tick...

Chilly??????????

Cue the meltdowns by the usual suspects...

...I have neighbors who have been in their pool countless times during thunderstorms...some people are lucky ..if I did that I'd be fried like bacon at a fast food place..

I read that article yesterday. I do agree that it is a worthwhile read. Within the last month I read the following 2 articles: both are worthwhile reads . https://fortune.com/article/gen-z-college-students-struggling-to-read-books-professors-forced-to-rethink-standards-warn-of-anxiety-lack-of-workplace-prepardness/ https://futurism.com/future-society/college-students-losing-ability-read It is very difficult to obtain an education without being able to read and to comprehend what is read. People who arent around kids don't realize how bad of an education many kids are receiving....and that includes many parents. At many schools the daily goal is " Let's not do anything that gets us on the 6 o'clock news"....serious issues are being swept under the rug.

....I can't even begin to tell you how bad it is with hs students including athletes. We literally have to teach players how to pay attention and how to absorb and understand what is being taught.

....the attention spans of some people shall we say are lacking? Lol

There have been numerous psychological studies done on what works to attract viewers/readers..I ve participated in several focus groups on advertising. Ive always been amazed about what prompted some people to react to the ads/commercials....

It is all about getting people to watch and/or page hits to generate advertising dollars. People are attracted to those types of headlines....if they said something like "it's going to be a typical July day in the east"...their audience would be lower.. It is always best to ignore the hype in weather and sports...

It works well for flower gardens and trees/shrubs....the best thing to do is to clean the rain barrel prior to the first use of the season and then every 2-3 weeks during the season.

....sorry but I'm not smart enough to answer your question...

Smart people use rain barrels to collect water for their gardens..

1.09 of much needed rain in methuen

I refer to it as the softening of society..now days people have more issues handling weather because they are inside a lot more than back in the day..

Great band!!...I doubt he ever expected a song to be written with his name as the title. Lol And I highly doubt he received an early distant warning while living in his subdivision prior to the release of the song.

My former 8th grade teacher and freshman football coach Tom Sawyer began the football program at Londonderry...hence the name change from Rangers to Lancers.
