snowlurker Posted September 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 As we patiently wait to have our hearts broken by a lack of snow this winter, I saw that the record for the coldest NH temperature was finally verified. -93.3F !!! Can you imagine? I might have gotten my thermo wrong, but I believe that's below the solid condensation "dewpoint" for CO2 at 1 bar and therefore some amounts of atmospheric CO2 would have anti-sublimated. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/09/23/northern-hemisphere-cold-record/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchg Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 So, If the Eagles don't win the Thursday night home game against the Giants in a few weeks, what game is the first win? This team couldn't even beat the Bungals. Hope everyone is well, checking in from a snowier land more often now as we approach winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF we still had Nick Foles, he would have started in place of Wentz for Thursday night. Hope he does well with the Da Bears. Send pictures of the leaves changing and snow fall. We aren't going to get any down here. 🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchg Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 Yup. I just don't see any chance for the Eagles the next three weeks 49ers, Steelers, Ravens before that Giants game the way Wentz is playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he does well with the Da Bears. Send pictures of the leaves changing and snow fall. We aren't going to get any down here. 🙃 After the 2018 season the Eagles were forced to decide between Wentz or Foles, there was no way from a cap standpoint they could pay a backup QB $20M+ / year. The decision to choose Wentz was the correct one at that time. Wentz certainly has issues but with that being said by far the biggest problem with the organization is the front office particularly Howie. Since 2017 the drafts have been horrendous which is why they are forced to spend $$$ signing aging free agents & subsequently are currently up against the cap. You don't recover from drafting Arcega-Whiteside over D.K. Metcalf. The O line picks have been brutal which is why you have no depth for an old OL & you have to sign a clearly broken down Peters to play LT. With all the needs on the team to draft a QB in the 2nd round after you signed Wentz to a $128M contract is beyond absurd. Speaking of Wentz contract, how is that looking now, he still could have been on the last year of his 4 yr $26.6M entry contract this season. They are stuck with Wentz next year as his $34.6M salary & cap hit are guaranteed. Team does have an out before the 2022 season at the expense of a $24M cap hit, I believe as I'm certainly no cap expert. You have to be able to draft in the NFL to sustain excellence otherwise you get what have now which is complete disarray & the SB win looking like a one hit wonder. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mshaffer526 Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 I had an honest to God dream this morning that we were tracking the first snowfall of the season, and in the last 24 hours before the event it shifted north. The bizarre thing is I wasn't even in PA... Not even on the same planet maybe. Take from this what you will 🤪 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rramblings Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 HI everyone. No, I have not been anywhere. My sweetie and I are ok. Just wanting to say hi and wave 👋 to all of you fine folk here on my favorite weather forum. I may absent myself for several days for no particular reason, but I always come back. Hope that everyone is as well as can be expected in these times. Stay safe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mshaffer526 Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 Heading up to Jim Thorpe for the first time this weekend. We got an Airbnb cabin about twenty minutes outside the town near Beltzville State Park. Foliage should be nice with the recent chilly weather. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a new roof and gutters installed last November. I upgraded to 6" gutters since I had been regularly climbing the ladder to clean out leaves from a neighbors large black walnut tree (incredibly dirty, nasty trees) which partially overhangs my roof. Roofer said the 6" gutters should really handle leaves from clogging (maybe a regular tree) and actually talked me out of getting the gutter guards. He said that no product is perfect, and that eventually gutters would need to be cleaned (which would be a bigger job, due to taking the guards off to clean gutters). Well, this year I've had to go up the ladder twice and I am reconsidering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this year I've had to go up the ladder twice and I am reconsidering. Thanks. I found your experience interesting.I have black walnut but she does not overhang my roof. She is messy but I love all my trees. Still, black walnut leaves do end up in my gutter. My carpenter cleans my gutters for me, he has been up twice so far. And they are due to be cleaned again. The spring/early summer cleaning was also cause of the Oak. I have heard that gutter guards are not perfect and cleaning them is a pain.
