Hoth

Yeah I’ll pass.

I always assumed they were one and the same. Interesting.

The damn tent caterpillars are all over the south side of Fishers Island. I was going out of my way to squash them with my car.

The radar out there is insane.

My car is buried under maple keys. It's ridiculous.

Holy Jesus on that supercell northwest of Dallas. That is an absolute beast!

Nice boomers!

Some sleet mixed in with that last round of heavy rain.

What a day!

Hackleburg/Phil Campbell takes the cake for me as far as EF5 monsters go. However, purely from a menacing visual aesthetic goes, the Linneus MO and Keota IA wedges from last year are hard to beat.

Yeah, there's that. I don't particularly like treadmills though. They sort of do the work for me, if that makes sense. Boring as hell, too, unless there happens to be a gorgeous girl on the adjacent one (never happens).

Is it too much to ask to not have a wind roaring in my face every time I go for a run? It's been ridiculous this month.

Gotta go with '11. I think Hartford's all-time snowiest October prior to that was like 1.5" and they got a foot out of that one storm. Just destroyed records.

So not dropping then? (My date later turned out to be a lesbian)

If there is a single government agency that generates great value for the tax payer's dollar, it is the NWS.

First run of the year in shorts today. Felt damn good.

For sure. Heard the red wing blackbirds out there for the first time, too. Always a sign that spring is approaching.

This website is gold. Anyway, another beautiful morning out there. 10 mile jog on the books, and I dare say my nape may be slightly sunburned.

Tupper Lake NY picnic table pic. Now that’s how you do winter.

The weenie melts in southern Delaware must be epic. From 20”+ to an inch in a few cycles.

Wasn’t there a Feb tornado in Mass a few years back?

Chunks of wind propelled ice slamming my windows

Which storm was it that was expected to nail SCT and wound up dumping 2 feet on Islip while we got an inch of baking powder? That stung.

Hopefully that won’t be freezing rain.

I took my first walk around the neighborhood. My first impression as that we were lucky we got over 32 when we did. This would've been a pretty severe ice storm if the freezing rain had persisted another few hours. One neighbor lost a large tree onto his house. It was obviously diseased, but even so you don't see a 5' diameter trunk snapped off at the base all that often. The white pines by the NHCC took a beating as well. There were several houses with severed power connections. I do wonder what the wind will do if the ice doesn't melt before the cold sets back in.
