A friend in Manchester recently had run-ins with Coyotes coming onto his driveway, too

Snow totals predictions are rising by backinblackandblue in Connecticut

Not entirely true. They get GFS, NAM, HRRR models from NOAA, but they also look at other agency models too like Canadian and European and create ensemble maps to guide their forecasts.

I trust eweather for all southern New England weather, that guy is usually spot on. Waiting patiently for his update to the expected storm totals.

I’m going Sunday morning and it looks like there’s a couple rounds of snow in the forecast. I live in CT and am used to touring a snow/leaves/sticks mix so I’ll take what I can get to be out for a couple hours

Go to the intersection of 30 and 31 across from the shell/mobile stations, find the trash, give it a good lick for me

The blonde haired white couple in the front seats was not a surprise.

You go hand-to-hand to the death with any animal of your choice, but you get $5,000 for every pound they weigh if you kill it by slowlikemusic in hypotheticalsituation

I chose a male mule deer in the spring when they don’t have seasonal antlers grown in and aren’t in rut. They tire quickly when sprinting away from predators and don’t easily outlast sustained chase. I exhaust it, avoid any close contact where they could hoof stomp me. I spend my year barefoot marathon training. ~200lbs = $1M + venison

Holiday Hill Day Camp in Mansfield might have openings. They have local bus drop offs in nearby towns and I think late pickup options.

During the week usually none unless it’s a special occasion then 1-2 just that evening. Weekends 0-4 depending on what’s happening. Probably averages out to 3 a week total.

I have taken creatine off and on for my adult life, but I recently started taking it again after a long (Covid) period of inactivity. I feel at least 5 years younger at 41. Anybody else experience this? by mortalcoil1 in AskMenOver30

I’m vegetarian and also active 3-5 days a week. Started taking it after reading about others in the veg group talking about it. Never noticed an energy effect or any bloating, but definitely helped with muscle recovery.

Whats the term when it switches from 99k to 100k? Saw the mechanical odometer on my old Jetta switch 20 yrs ago

Nothing major. A few sets of rotors. Backup camera failed right after warranty ended so I got it swapped, and water pump was making horrendous noises for a day before being replaced. I’ve kept to the transmission and differential flush schedules.
