Time to dig out the jackets and gloves.

👍Rocket launch scrubbed 🙁

And now for something completely different

Joe Bastardi Saturday summary on La Nina , scroll down ...He has been cold biased in the past but more middle of the road with his forecasts. https://www.weatherbell.com/

That's pretty cool . I happened by a yard sale one year and snagged a Nordic Track for $15.00 LOL. I used it for 6yrs before having to replace a drive wheel $75.00 . I set it on the highest angle with a lot of resistance and put leg weights on . It's not quite what that gym has but it works ok . I'm in trouble this year though I haven't been on once yet .

Thought it might be too windy to set towers but looks like it’s not.

New indoor and outdoor units? Or just change outdoor? A new indoor unit should match up. What Brand?

Furnace is forced air boiler is hot water , big difference in efficiency! Heat pumps are definitely more efficient than they used to be. Solar I’m not to familiar with as far as PV , I have a customer who installed a couple years ago and said if he had it to do over again he wouldn’t. He didn’t do a good job of elaborating. He has a Geothermal unit with a very shallow piping system in his yard that was done in the early 80’s ( not too efficient) Natural gas is still cheap if it’s available. UGI offers a $1,500.00 rebate for Combi units ( Domestic water and heat)

Oil forced air really sucks and is inefficient , if you have AC with it you’re better off taking out the AC and putting in a heat pump and making the oil back up heat.

Buy electric heaters 😁 Minisplit heat pumps are good too.

Shame on the doubters.

I’m curious, how much Diesel do they go through in a season? Is the water pumping system Electric? What is capacity GPH ? How many CFMs air? Lots more questions but I’ll shut up now 🙂

Too bad you didn’t fly in the late afternoon. It cleared up in time for my Mt Pisgah hike. I’m anxious to ski some lines up there.

24° Ish . The gun that pasted me every run was at the intersection of Paradise and Homestretch .

I had the best day ( night) skiing Coming soon last year. Lapped it 4hrs straight while the guns were running. Perfect wind direction blew the snow straight up the slope , it was perfect mix of bumps with a refresh on every run . Best day there last season! What I found amazing was very little goggle stickage. Nothing like some of the fan guns down low, you could be 100yds away and end up a glazed donut.

What's your wingspan again ?

I was thinking it would be cool to fly an ultralight though the tunnel while it’s down but I’m not ready to give up my ticket just yet Lol .

Not at all those plastic seats won't be missed .

Hard to tell but Looks like the top is graded and waiting for steel

Yeah pilot lights are pretty much gone in the interest of saving energy but the downside is moisture and bugs can mess up your equipment .

LOL ,I got as far as "AWG " American Wire Gage of which I thought there was 18 and 20 no 19 ? No nothing about com stuff .

On the label it says length 5,244’ 3,360 lbs Hard to imagine there’s almost a mile of cable sitting there.

Tree of Knowledge 😁
