1. Thanks TK

2. Thanks TK…..not sleeping? 🙁

   1. I slept right after I posted until 8AM. 😀 That’s more than enough for me!

      Was doing some late night shopping with Em & Lyn before we went back to Lyn’s to watch the Bruins on DVR-delay. Who needs guy friends when you hang out with ladies that love hockey? 😀

3. Thanks TK.
   Its nice seeing the snow picture. Hopefully there will be some snow before Christmas.
   First Saturday of December and I am going golfing.

   1. I’m getting the feeling that IF we do see it before Christmas, it will be barely in time. And that might take some “luck”. 😉

4. Thank you. Also golfing. Hoping to ski and golf on the same day this month.

5. Good and beautiful morning, everyone!
   Earliest sunset of the year this afternoon (4:13 here in Taunton)!

   Have a great weekend!
   Thanks, TK!
   Go Pats!

6. I like the snow pic also and the rudolph background 🙂

7. Good morning!! Thanks tk 🙂

   Sunset is 1 min later tomorrow, and for me, that is positive. 🙂

   Still don’t see much, if any snow for the foreseeable future, and again that is positive. I do wish everyone a happy Saturday. I’ll be very busy with outside work for a good part of the day. 🙂

8. Good morning all and thank you TK.

   Great party last night. Took nearly an hour to get from my house to the
   water front at rush hour last evening (perhaps 5 miles tops, even a little less). Only about 20 minutes to get home. 😀

   1. Glad you had a nice time. Beautiful area for a party.

9. hmmm

   Although GFS and CMC have a system more out to sea on 12/8-12/9,
   the Euro has one tantalizingly close with colder 850mb temps. Not really cold, but
   colder by recent standards.

   1. Looks like wundermap links are now working.
      I posted the short link and long link. Let’s see IF either work.

      1. Oh well, I guess it was too good to be true. Sorry, links do not
         work. They did when I tested while I had the wundermap open.
         Perhaps someday they’ll fix that. Sure!

         1. They show precip getting up to about Boston.

            1. December 9 is a magic snow date so who knows 🙂

            2. They worked for me.

            3. As the models are beginning to indicate, subtle changes appear to be on the way.

               It’s December 5th. Certainly not time to throw in the towel for this month. I’m willing to bet my entire fortune (well, that ain’t much, but oh well) that we’ll have accumulating snow in Boston sometime this month.

               1. We stay the way we are now for quite a while yet. The models almost always indicate the change too soon – especially the GFS.

10. Our latest sunset (4:11) is this Wednesday! I read somewhere years ago that technically the time is 4:11:30 and never gets to exactly 4:11 pm.

    Charlie…stop rushing things. I would love to know where you get your wx stats. 😉

11. Just remember –last December we had .3 inches of snow and the word “putrid” was used multiple times on this blog to describe the winter.

    1. Hmmmmm I womder who used that word 😆

       1. I know someone who used it. 😀

    2. And that was before Winter officially started. 😉

       1. But not before it was written off…..sorry there seems to be a touch of devil in me today 😈

12. Mobile test

13. Way too warm out. It’s toasty warm.

    1. Nice day for,outside lights. The roof is finally finished so we can get the lights up.

14. Sea breeze, a light one, in Marshfield.

    1. I think I can almost smell the ocean 🙂

       1. 🙂

          Hope you will return to the area to enjoy the ocean.

          1. Me too. Thanks Tom

15. Just got in from golfing on the first weekend of December. I remember a couple first weekends in December getting a good dumping of snow in 2003 and 1996.

    1. How was your Game, JJ?

16. Looks like 12Z Euro smelled the coffee and woke up re: 12/9.
    Now showing an OTS system, way OTS. 😀

    1. I was tempted to say 12/9 for the first inch in boston as I said in my prediction but there are only so many times storms can hit on the same date….right???

17. Hi Vicki….. I played a nine hole par 3 golf course that I play a lot during the year. I just missed a chip in for a par by a foot but chipped one in from just off the green for a bogey. It was nice to be out getting some fresh air in December. I am kind of torn since I am enjoying the extra time to play golf this year but at the same time I want snow.

    1. Sounds as if you had a GREAT game. Enjoy the golf. Snow will be here soon enough ❄️❄️❄️❄️

18. The powerful northern Atlantic storms continue their relentless assault on the British Isles. One after another for the past few weeks. These are massive storms. Wind gusts of 85mph were reported in Wales earlier today:

    1. They got that a lot in the 1990s too. I remember tracking them during the North Atlantic shipping forecast.

       1. Indeed, there were many historic storms during the 90s in that part of the world. I lived in Holland during the 80s and 90s. On my long drive to work I listened to BBC 4 on longwave radio (for some reason the Blaupunkt radio my VW was equipped with had a longwave option). BBC 4 was mostly a news station, but every hour they’d give the shipping news and weather forecast. You were probably one of the persons responsible for providing data for the shipping forecast. The shipping reports included warnings (every day it seemed there were warnings) and reports from ports, oil rigs, and stations/areas of sea and ocean with strange-sounding names:

19. New post. Not much new there, but check it out anyway. 🙂
