A little chilly but a beautiful afternoon/evening in Ocean City. Post sunset iPhone pic.

Your link doesn’t show anything. But check the image below out: The image below is the SST for each year 1982-2025 for the tropical Atlantic 10-20N, 20-60W. The black line is the 1991-2020 average, the red is 2023, orange is 2024, and blue is 2025 to date. Note how much cooler it is as of 4/27/2025 (near the 1991-2020 average) vs both 4/27/2023 and 4/27/2024! https://kouya.has.arizona.edu/tropics/tropATLsst.png

Storms were impressive looking but not a single report of a confirmed tornado yikes Edit: I spoke too soon there is one now

Hikes are getting more colorful in the high country! The spring ephemerals are peaking at 5400'. The sunsets have been pretty good too. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

This is probably the end of the cold season. Might be time for a warm season thread. We didn't get to the High Road plot yesterday due to wind, but this morning a snowcat went up to check the snowfall at sunrise... and retrieve the snowboard and depth stake. The porcupines love to eat them in the spring as the sun warms the wood. 5" of refrozen snow sat on the board. The seasonal measured total rises to 362". That's often a 24 hour total, so there's some settling. It looks like we move on to the warm season rapidly now.

I love snow, but there is nothing that hits better than a 72/30 day of full sun and long daylight. 10/10 day. Staff day has become a fun gathering with the Quad running for employees only, the day after “last day.”

The last two times we had a significant tornado come through the metro were the EF1 that went through Minneapolis in 2011 and the Hugo EF3 in 2008. We are well overdue. Crazy thing is both of those tornadoes were overshadowed by EF5s elsewhere the same day (Joplin and Parkersburg). .

Hangs by you

For the drought watch crowd:

8 hurricanes, 4 majors expected, and a landfall-heavy year Agreed more with these lot than most of the mainstream https://www.spglobal.com/esg/insights/featured/special-editorial/an-elevated-2025-hurricane-season

My roof is 14 years old and I’ve never filed an insurance claim. Let’s get ours.

Really impressive day/night temp swings. 29/76 out at Walpack, Sussex County. Probably see something similar tomorrow.

How’d they do with the joints? Snoop level now?

Da fuck? lol joxey. Crypto spam bot in a random old ass thread.

*which WILL warm up soon

Congrats! I’m with ya. We are headed up to the Poconos with the kids. Have a close eye on this weekend’s weather, which seems a bit up in the air at this point as far as timing and such.

Yea but I'm in Queens. I radiate better than most of the city but not that good! Lol

Somewhere in Central CT an angry, growling wolf just came out of hibernation

Weird to think that spring is pretty far along. Males have had their fun and are on their way.

Wish I could give it 200%. Today is a day that makes spring worth living.

Clear and dry with no wind. Temps drop like a rock

Fair. It just feels like in CT, you have all that CT has to offer, plus NYC, MA and Boston not too far away. (of course, now that I live here, I'm not thinking of going to NYC or Boston for regular visits, but I did want to get one of the specialists I need in Boston, as I was previously her patient in OK and she moved, too) I'm sorry about your parents. As much as I hate to think of it, my parents are getting older and I hate being so far away from them now. I'm hoping I can get them here and be around to take care of them when they need care. I'm super close to my parents and this is the first time I've ever lived more than an hour away (and that was for a couple of years only).

I saw that earlier but just now realized that they posted in a thread from 15 months ago and not three months ago. Time flies.

I need it to not rain Saturday. We are celebrating our 20th anniversary and a throwing a large formal dinner party and renting out Greystone and rain would suck.
