tunafish Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 Hey @weatherwiz. Check out this beauty. Only about a half dollar coin size. Let's see how big she can get (orb weaver). I think she positioned herself where a light from a neighbor shines at night. Can you find her? She's pretty well hidden between the grasses and alyssum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HimoorWx Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Thinking of doing the wintertime Cog Railway trip up to 4000 feet in late November or early December. Anyone taken it before? Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not The Cog, yet, but I took the van with the tracks on it in Feb of 2020, pretty damn cool if you like winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolri_wx Posted Sunday at 08:04 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 08:04 PM How about them Pats. Amazing what competent coaching and some decent drafting and signing can do. Plus a weak strength of schedule . Not convinced they are "very good", but at least they are playoff worthy in a weak AFC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted Wednesday at 01:57 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:57 PM After seeing no ticks from late June thru mid September, the little horrors are back in force. Yesterday's woods walk included pushing through some dense sapling stands and I brought home (and dispatched) 10 deer ticks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying neither me or the dog have had one in a while after getting a bunch in the beginning of summer. Hope it stays that way down here.

mreaves Posted Thursday at 01:02 AM Share Posted Thursday at 01:02 AM We are once again dog parents. Say hello to Bella. She is a 4 yo beagle. Her previous owner od’d though all appearances are that she had been treated well. Norman seems to be adjusting ok. He did puff up his tail but there has been no altercation yet. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it stays that way down here. The late summer tick hiatus came to light in 2019 when Maine Public Lands annual 2-day "peer review" field trip was set in southern Maine, including Swan Island with its overpopulation of deer. Nearly 40 attended the mid-August excursion and not a single tick was reported. That 7/15-9/10 period has remained tick-free, and this year it was 6/20-9/20. May that period be extended. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernovice Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Kinda OT but willing to bet we see more startups with this goal in mind (reducing climate change itself) I’m interested to see governments worldwide react (or not) to this eventuality. Will every country have their own national player? Interesting to ponder. https://heatmap.news/climate-tech/stardust-geoengineering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to ponder. https://heatmap.news/climate-tech/stardust-geoengineering lol Typical of people to try to fix a problem by treating the symptoms rather than getting to the root of the issue. Just get the CO2 back down to where it should be. The atmosphere has the ability release excess heat out to space…trapping it in the troposphere is the problem.

dendrite Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago And holy hell…plants rely on a certain expected amount of solar radiation. What are we doing trying to reduce that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewbeer Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago experience shows that humanity as a collective is not capable of (or interested in) managing the fallout from our current CO2 geoengineering experiment hard pass on any more geoengineering experiments, until we get the CO2 one figured out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
