[03:00:48] <systemd> ^ 03Mount Washington, New Hampshire Weather Forecast
[03:00:59] <Bytram> "Tonight... A 30 percent chance of snow showers, mainly after 4am. Increasing clouds, with a low around -2. Wind chill values as low as -39. Very windy, with a northwest wind 85 to 90 mph, with gusts as high as 115 mph."
[03:06:55] <halibut> If that were a cyclone from the Atlantic as opposed to a storm front from Canada, it might be classified as a Category 2 hurricane. Impressive. https://en.wikipedia.org

[03:20:26] <halibut> That story you linked is a fun read.
[03:21:50] <Bytram> Never read it before, myself -- very much agree!!
[03:30:08] <Bytram> Just finished. Many years ago I had the good fortune to spend a day in the area and drove to the top of Mt. Washington. More of a challenge though, was the drive back down! Conservation of energy. Potential energy needed to be dissipated, somehow. Brakes can only take so much before they overheat. Thankfully, I had a standard transmission, but the gearing was not ideal. Not enough engine braking in 2nd gear, and just a loud and slow

[21:54:54] <Subsentient> It does when enough people finally admit to the issues.
