    We've had three mornings of heavy fog but it was in July....does that mean winter will be a month earlier? :smoke:

    I'll probably be in the BVI's for a week or so on a boat in winter. So the rest of the time it will be in the upper 70's it will be in my living room by the stove.

    She actually shoveled once last winter before I got home form work. It was a bad day at work and I was beat up and man, was that ever a welcome sight!!

    She deserves a new shovel!!

    I predict temperatures and precipitation to fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean. I feel 99.7% sure that I'll be right too.

    You can keep all your WHACKs right down there, also, you can have all the WHACKS intended for this area. I have to tell you though, in Maine, it will be cold and snow covered. Just the way life is here. My son is planning on buying a plow for his truck. I used to have one, but I was way too popular when I did.

    We just came back from Cranberry Lake from a boat ride, some of the Maples and Cherry tree leaves are changing color already so I'll say that we get the cold coming in early.

    We also had a foggy morning, does that mean we'll get one snowfall.

    Anyone have a Farmers Almanac? I haven't had one in years. Praying for another mild winter here. Nina or Nino or whatever it takes so we don't have -37* and house heat sucking 90 mph sustained winds.

    I talked with Steph a few days back, she said it will be nasty out in your area.

    I have Trumpet vines in my yard for the humming birds and they have already been seeding o_O for the last two weeks!:confused: I don't ever remember them starting this early, usually around last week in August. Somethings "fishy"...
