    Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.

    The rain predicted for this afternoon hasn't arrived yet, probably tonight and into tomorrow. I see some blue with green spots to the northwest on radar so the spritz is coming. Then its back in the deep freeze 10-20 degrees so foraging done I'm back in my cave hibernating. As "Jerry" once said; "That's the sto-ry!"

    This is how I remember winter being when i was a youngster. Except back then it usually stayed cold longer and there was more snow. Then everyone got spoiled by all the mild-warm snow and ice free winters we had back to back year after year. A lot of the old time Adirondackers say that winters up there in the mountains were rougher than nowadays. And even some Alaskan's and Yukon'rs are saying the same thing. Of curse one would have to examine the stats to be certain as people don't always remember things exactly as they were. Then again, considering climate change it is possible they are right.

    Same here, but not so BLOODY cold. Kids don't mind cold and getting wet BUT if it got as cold as it was a couple of days ago and will be again the day after tomorrow (9-15) we wouldn't have made snow men, we'd BE snowmen!

    Just scored a new 270 year record warm +14.4 C for the Netherlands, most of Europe is like that, so what is that winter thingy you all brag about?

    Keep safe now you all hear?

    Went from -9oF (-23oC) a few days ago to 56oF (13oC) (forecasted 42) right now at 7:30AM. A 65 degree difference. The snow is all but gone but it's raining like heck. The birds just woke up and are they excited! HooHaH Kiddies!
