Itstrainingtime

80 in Maytown, 78 here along the river in Conestoga.

3pm, THV coming in at 81, CXY at 80.

Temp is now 78.3....

I have a garden pond. I've seen a lot of activity in it over the years...

You moved to Maytown?

Looks like MDT was just 72 at the last hourly update.

Sunshine and 75 at 1:15pm.

You should here the sounds from the FedEx jets - not sure why, they always seem to cross over much lower than the commercial aircraft. I can usually tell in advance if it's FedEx. I guess they need to deliver the load quickly...

Wow...I had an oldies station on the other day and heard that wonderous afternoon song that was such a delight years ago...

Fair point. I asked, I received. And I appreciate.

At my age, it's become a snooze-ner.

(channeling my inner Lee Corso) Not so fast! I actually was sitting adjacent to my monitor watching it while enjoying a late dinner. Thing is, if you go by hourly readings, mine weren't that alarming. It was what happened in the interim that seemed wonky. And let me say this - my station is 100% accurate. Don't even think about questioning my data, sir. You and everyone else can suffer through your smoothed-out data while I'm enjoying my highly sensitive, highly accurate data. There was a mix of cloud cover and clear skies last evening, and along with the southerly wind component, I truly believe that reflected in the readings. I had adjusted my barometer a couple of years ago and ever since it has been lock/step with MDT's data except for events such as frontal passages when my station obviously responds a little later. I'm all good here.

Had a low of 44 overnight. Haven't had that happen before. Had a crazy temp fluctuation last evening between 6:30 - 8:30pm: 6:30: 61.1 6:45: 65.5 7:00: 59.9 7:15: 63.3 7:30: 57.8 7:45: 64.1 8:00: 62.8 8:15: 64.7 8:30: 58.6 After that, the temp slowly but steadily fell off. It's not super uncommon to have temp swings, but given the sensible weather, the duration, and the amount of variation, it seemed very unusual. Did anyone else record anything similar last evening?

(Shhhh)

If the Euro is right (LOLOLOLOL) @Blizzard of 93 gets wintry precipitation in just over 6 days.

I was just going to comment - it went from sunny to overcast here in the blink of an eye. Down to 71.

Only a week away:

It's 75 here at 3pm.

I've only made 3 or 4 significant wagers in my life - and this series was one of them. I won a nice chunk of change last night. The whole thing threw me into turmoil; honestly, there was a big part of me that wanted the Phillies to win for all of the fans in this thread. (and my family as well) But... I really can't explain it. Similar to hunches I get during the winter, my baseball senses were telling me that Arizona was going to win the series. I went with it and put down the wager. I was well rewarded. I've yet to lose a bet, obviously making just a few in my lifetime, I really pick my spots and won't do so unless I'm really feeling it. And that was my most compelling reason...a hunch. Can't explain it, but it's worked every time.

It is already up to 71 here now!

I picked the wrong time to get sick. I've been WFH the past 2 days with; as they say in the Association, a "non-Covid illness." I actually might go outside for a while this afternoon - it's really, really nice out.

Sunny and 69 at 1pm.

Sunny and 63 at noon.

I get the disappointment/frustration, but they are a wee bit spoiled. My team has been the laughingstock of baseball for years. We were referred to as the "Zer-O's" in recent years. And to go out this year and win 101 games and then not win a single playoff game? That hurt.

I was 18 when the Orioles won a World Series. 40 years later Phillies fans...40 years later...and we haven't even made it back...
