    I've surrendered to the a/c. The heat and humidity shut me right down. I'd rather a week below 0 than a day above 80*/80%.
    Here's my annual summer relief picture, feel free to add your own.:thumbs: big snow feb 2013 026.jpg 20.jpg DSCN8540.jpg

    I feel a little better now.:D

    October 2011 Nor'easter (Halloween Storm) The trees and cable lines in my yard missed my VW Jetta by a couple feet. Most of the state was shut down for days afterwards as crews were mobilized from all over to help restore power. I passed the time driving around with my chainsaw doing my part and building up my woodpile. That was my kind of crisis! OCTOBER_2011-1.JPG OCTOBER_2011-2.JPG

    We had a few good years there in the 2008-2015 stretch. The last few years have been pretty lackluster. I'm hoping for at least couple big storms this year.

    Could you arrange one for tomorrow?:D
    I'd gladly brush the snow off my logs just to work them up!

    I wish. I forget when they started naming the snowstorms, maybe 2011-2012. I remember "Nemo", which was February 9th of 2013 dumped 31" on my town. The same year "Saturn", which was like mid March dumped another 21" on us. When I tell my wife, and others that I'd love a "real storm", like 42"-48", they all look at me like I'm nuts. Thing is those are the ones that everyone remembers. If its going to snow, let it snow.

    You must be referring to Hamden.

    Yeah it was a good one. I had plowed for the State for 30+ hours straight, and didnt realize how much we actually had, plowing 2-3 inches at a time. I got home and saw my driveway and was like "Holy ****"
