Am stacking up on bonus honey-do points, with the expectation that when the crystalline substance does appear that I will be AWOL for a verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry looooooooooooooooong tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime.

And I'm not talking about controlled substances. :)

boo.
Looks like it was Challenger that dropped out of the mix. I'd be pretty confident that it will be back by Saturday, along with 10th mtn.
OK...but I'm planning on going tomorrow, have an early season voucher to burn. Can't be choosy.

It's going to dump up north right after the holidays. Slow start so far but I've managed a couple of decent days. You have to think positive, negativity never works.

Today 57 degrees. I went home for lunch today and two friends stopped by on their road tandem. I would have joined them for a ride but I had to go back to work.
May take the road bikes out of winter storage tomorrow.

I've got to meet an old friend next week in Saint Johnsbury, VT where he lives. We planned on skiing but...?

..... that now I just feel physically ill.

From Buffalo NWS:

"A LOOK AT NORTHERN HEMISPHERIC TELECONNECTIONS FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEK
PERIOD SHOWS A CONTINUATION OF +AO AND +NAO...NEUTRAL PNA...AND THE
MJO STUCK IN PHASE 4-5 OF THE WHEELER PHASE SPACE PLOT. IN SIMPLE
TERMS...THE OVERALL FLOW WILL REMAIN UNBELIEVABLY PROGRESSIVE AND
MILD...WITH A HIGH CONFIDENCE OF ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES
CONTINUING THROUGH THE END OF THE MONTH AND AT LEAST THE FIRST WEEK
OF JANUARY. THAT IS NOT TO SAY THERE WILL NOT BE A FEW BRIEF SHOTS
OF COLDER WEATHER AND A FEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR SNOW...BUT ON AVERAGE
OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS THE WARMTH WILL CONTINUE."
