The squirrels are chewing these little branches with tiny Oak leaves all over . Making a mess . Just the worst animal alive in terms of lawn destruction

Probably best to get your hands on some chlordane and kill every living fauna on the hill.

Saw a hawk swoop in and grab a squirrel in my backyard last week-poor thing never had a chance.

The problem is they’re usually front loaded…not back.

Wonder if this will be like 2020 where things flip to a torch around Memorial Day? Then again I lived out in Milwaukee at the time so I'm not sure how it evolved here but I assume it was similar.

Let’s keep setting the expectations for winter 26-27 lower and lower….that’s usually a good recipe for a surprise.  I like it.

As good a mindset as any

[weathafella]

We’ll be in FL for 2 months next winter….mid January-mid March.  FL experienced widespread severe wx during the winter of 97-98 which is unusual but the coming Nino may be a decent analogue.  We’ll see how nao behaves.
