gravitylover Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 A little harder than drizzle here. That northern boundary to this looks pretty firm. I hate being in the soup knowing that it's nice not far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Haha I'm on the third day now with pants and a jacket is in order this morning. I had to turn on the heat too because it was 62* in the house this morning and while it sort of feels good it's damp and it makes the old man back feel crappy. 52* with light rain and wind sure does feel like fall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishRob17 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Well I did put my rain jacket on this morning, but still short sleeves. I was at .60" when I left in a steady rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Appears to be about .3" here and it's been pretty steady light rainfall with short periods of moderate mixed in since about 8 last night. For as little rain as has fallen the roads are getting ugly with big puddles and ponding on the roadways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty much peak season for them down there. Looks like we are now up to ~.65" here since last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'm not going in September again, did it twice and one year was fine while the other sucked. I'm going again next August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know all about being frugal As of just two weeks ago I wouldn't have thought twice about grabbing a deal on a few days on the beach down there but now it looks like a different story for the next few weeks. Even August is questionable but, I'd do it. We seem to be running ~.1/hour so far today. Not bad, gives it a chance to soak in rather than otherwise. Hopefully Flo doesn't send much for rain and wind up this way or we'll have trees flopping over, so much is weak from the winter storms and how wet it's been this year and NYSEG did a piss poor job of clearing the lines in case another real storm hits the area which puts us in another no power situation.

IrishRob17 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Just updated some of my stats. Here's a shocker...I recorded my highest number of 90 Degree Days, 34 this year. After this year the rest of the top three 90 Degree Days are 29 in 2016 and 28 in 2012. My average number of 90 degree days here is 16. Also tied my overall high of 99 on 7/2/18 with the same on 7/6/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Gorilla Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Holy cow, the flooding rains in northern Dutchess this morning! Parts of 9G were almost impassable and I think they closed part of that road after I drove through some pretty scary waters, which I shouldn't have done. Most have received 1-3 inches of rain in a few hours with those training downpours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I ran into quite a few heavy downpours around western CT today. There was a fair bit of water on the road in a lot of places, creeks are bank full and there's lots of deep standing water filling the low spots. One thing that is kind of scary is how many (really) big trees are leaning precariously over roads and power lines just waiting for a strong breeze to bring them down. You'd think these electric companies would have learned after last winter and the May storm to take these things down. I think it's time to keep 5 or 10 gallons of gas always ready to go into the generator. I wish I could get ethanol free gas near me so I didn't have to use Sta-Bil.

Juliancolton Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Was up in Lake George this weekend for the balloon fest. This morning's launch was awesome... 37F and a stout inversion that kept the ~90 balloons hanging overhead, nearly stationary. Friday eve and Sat morning got scrapped by stiff SW and even stiffer NW winds, respectively, as the front roared through. Curiously, foliage up there wasn't much more advanced than it is in at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
