First morning for the stove.  Came down to a 58* family room.  Need to get that chill off.

You need better insulation.

47F. Noticeable drop in mosquitoes. 

We were sitting by the fire tonight, watching how they receded by the 10 minute intervals.

Warm is not far away next week, hoping Southern WNE gets in on it.

Serious ass rain by Springfield.

South of pike jackpot.

GFS and Canadian both throwing highly anamolous temps over Hudson Bay next week.   Weird looking pattern, not sure I buy it. 

Next week looks warm. 

West is best for rain tomorrow?

Lol its 61 degrees out.

Ya' great summer night after a few cool ones.  Looking forward to an AN Sept. Going to head up to Lake Wyola tomorrow after I pick the boy up from school.  Next week looks great!

Alex what was your approximate snow total for last year ...130-140ish?

Stowe area or Crawford Notch are your best snow bets.  NEK is great but isolated.  Carrabasset Valley has the longest winters but is only a jackpot every 4 or 5 years.  Not sure how much you ski but Stowe and Sugraloaf are hands down the best mountains on the East Coast.

Next week looks pretty warm. Nothing crazy, but probably lots of 80s. 

If it's going to be boring it may as well be warm.

The EEE outbreak is making me dread every mosquito bite I get.

You are right to be cautious but just remember, the odds are very low that you will get it.

Zero people are cranky in this forum about not having a cool September...ZERO

There may be a couple I could think of but yeah, I'm fine with Sept heat.

Highly recommend "Thirty-Eight: The Hurricane That Changed New England" by Stephen Long.  Lots of details and pics.  My only (very parochial) lament was that it totally ignored the considerable damage to forests in western Maine - many thousand acres in that area hold trees dating from that event.

Also, New England Hurricane, A Factual Pictorial Record  By the Federal Writers Project is pretty good.  It was published in 1939 but you can find acceptable copies for short money.

I've worked the Fresh Grass music festival in N Adams for 7 straight years and it seems like 3rd week of September has had its share of AN warmth.

Great, bring it on.  Wish we could get a cold night in before to temper the wasps.

Cold, windy, some rain last night.  MVL had almost a half inch of rain but only 0.15” in Stowe.

Gondola is on a rare summer Wind Hold, 43F with wind chill near 32F.  

Feels like fall.

Highs only upper 50s to mid-60s today: 

Glad we here.

00z and 06z oper. GFS runs finish what Dorian failed to do ...

Not much left in the Bahamas but GFS said Florida gets in on the action this time.

400,000 were without power in Nova Scotia early this AM  50,000 in Prince Edward Island and 50,000 in New Brunswick.  Customers, not people.  Biggest power outage event in their history.  Dorian really slammed them.  Watching various TV news this AM.  Not even mentioning this.  

US news outlets have no interest in Atlantic Canada. it's boring.  It will be a slow process getting everybody online as it will be a street by street effort.  At one point 80% of Nova Scotia was without power.  I can't imagine there are much more than 50k people on PEI.  New Brunswick has a lot of customers out as well.

At the end of the run the GFS wants to take out the rest of the Bahamas!

2) April Fool s 97 (Awesomeness!)

3) January 2005 Blizzard (30"+ in Cambridge)

4) October 2011 Snow Storm (Freak storm)

Runners up:  Feb 2013, Hurricane Gloria

I've had several personal severe weather episodes that have been personally mind blowing but were isolated so I went with the historic stuff.
