Down to 31 now.  Only @ 5" today.  Supposed to be stopping by @ 6:30.  Far from the Ft+ that was predicted.

Sorry Carlos, can't answer your question.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I'm no meteorologist (and no, I didn't sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night), but I'd say we are getting very good precipitation from this storm.

The accumulation would probably be higher if the snow weren't as wet & heavy.

The ground was also quite warm, so it is actually melting from the bottom.  There's a fair amount of runoff in the curbs & gutters around town.

The temp sensor on your bike is a coil spring that expands with heat. On the end of the spring is a pointer that meets different contacts (two at a time) each two produce a different tone much like a telephone. That signal is sent by wire to the gauge where a processor inturperets the tone ( there are 786 distict tones) and displays the corresponding number on the digital display. It also sends that signal to the ECU so that it knows the incoming air temp.

The sensor for the water temp works the same way but instead of sound it produces different shades of rose color and instead of a spring there is a beetle that scrambles across a little treadmill faster and faster as the temp rises. I think those are the same part number.

;D

hello, still about 33°C/93°F . . .

can someone chime in, is the temp sensor in the 998 a Positive or negative coefficient?
pm the vet...

he may laugh at you. ;D

temperature sensors work by measuring the spin of the fire electron that is encased in a golden bulb inside a silk sock that is wetted by the tears of a hungry child

Bacon bits are what keep the beetle alive.

you're thinking of a barometer
baro = sanskrit for pig
since the ancient Sumerians believed that atmospheric pressure came from the pig god Baros pressing his holy flesh down upon us, the barometer went into early use to measure this a small piece of bacon is placed inside each one to this day
