eekuasepinniW Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 In case anyone was just about to ask, I scored 9 days of 90's last summer. Even scored some top-shelf heat with 93.6 and 94.3 on August 11/12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run a MADIS test on them. The fact that they are surrounded by stations that had temps much higher and at a much higher elevation, does not pass the sniff test. Even GON had more 90 days. C'mon man.

If it was hot in EMA it was 90's plus for all. I keep records, 2 here, 2 at the Coop across the state line, 3 across the state near Kevin. It's the opposite of if it didn't snow in EMA it didn't snow anywhere. Multiple 88s and 89s but I don't just lie or throw up numbers.

CoastalWx Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I gave facts, several people either directly or indirectly questioned the validity of two 90F days, and everyone around you..in all directions and all elevations had more days above 90.

You obviously don't know the climo of forested areas. Both COOPS,my records, and many others if you bothered doing some research will verify. You do a MADIS check and while you are at it figure out why GON had so many 90s last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the mesoscale aspects, but this is like Kevin claiming his Davis near a water soaked mulch bed represents dew points accurately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 It's amazing how poor my memory is of even last summer. Other than the drought and a nice warm start, I don't recall too much interesting stuff. Lots of clear blue days with little haze in July. Got a ton of use out of our new pool. But I do remember hoping for some "man heat" to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you broke the law and got yourself into trouble, then I surely have no problem with you paying a fine as a result of getting caught. For the NH LEOs who have to patrol those lakes in the winter, finding YouTube video of a violation is really no different than seeing it themselves, except the lawbreaker was dumb enough to put it on the internet. I do fine the GoFundMe page particularly irritating. I mean if you were so prepared for the stunt, then be prepared for the fine too. Don't make some other person pay for it because you don't want to. Get off my lawn! I don't think there should be a fine if the people involved demonstrated the necessary precautions: spotters, a modified sled, wet suits, etc. Not to mention it's been like 70F lately so the threat of hypothermia is greatly reduced from a normal winter. What they did was probably no more risky than some of the ski runs attempted out west (heliskiing, snowcat, etc); it was probably no more risky than drinking and smoking cigarettes every day...and yet we don't criminalize those behaviors. I don't take issue with GoFundMe, either. If the community as a whole believes the activity was reasonably safe and conducted with a modicum of precaution, why shouldn't they pay the fine for those that did the stunt? NNE has always been a place for outdoorsmanship, extreme sports, challenge against the elements, etc...people respect that. And these Fishing&Game fines have gotten out of control. My dad got fined $75 for not having a lifejacket in his ROWBOAT on a mid-summer, calm day in a small lake in PA. He swims across the lake every summer. These "outdoors" fines are just a money grab and not a legitimate way to promote safety. Also, using YouTube is highly inappropriate and would be doubtful tactics in a court of law.

You will be here and you will like it. But back to the debate...OK, say you did have two days. You know that your COOP is an outlierregion wide and that everyone else had a nice 6-8 week torch in the heart of summer. Why say it was "meh" for heat then? It's like MRG saying 01-02 was a great winter or something when he knows only his location was piling up snowfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks this could have been started over a week ago. Not seeing anything to get excited about for the duration, I'm going to give the winter a "gentleman's B-". All in all, rather disappointing. With below average snowfall, poor retention and a mid-February end to the season I could have gone lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also called it a 'gentleman's' B-; I could have just as easily gone with a C+. The disappointment is that this started strong out of the gate. I was running well ahead of average through December. Then, the air came out of the tires a bit after that. Of course, the wheels fell off completely the second half of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I would def give it a C or C- Average snow (barring a miracle comeback) Awful retention Lots of cutters and record warm temps One good storm and two meh ones and lots of nickels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a very small period of good winter wx with little other snow spread out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
