I'm with you. And that's why I feel the way that I do. It's disgusting to see what certain owners have done to destroy sports franchises. I've been watching live coverage today on some of the Bay area channels. It's going to be interesting...they have police coming in from pretty much every county in northern CA.

The game has been sold out for months. (though, they did not remove the tarps on Mt. Davis so the crowd figures to be around 45,000 instead of the 58,000 they pulled in for the Wild Card game a few years back when they opened up the entire stadium.)

Devastating flooding is imminent in the high country. My heart goes out to all in the storm's path. My heart today is also sad for the people of Oakland. Today is the final home game ever for the A's, and today marks the 3rd major sports franchise to leave the city in 5 years. First it was the Warriors heading across the bay to SF, then the Raiders bolted for Sin City and now the A's will follow them after a brief stint in Sacramento. I remember vividly losing the Colts in March 1984 and I can't begin to imagine going through the loss of 3 teams in such short order. Sad.

A total of 1.79" of rain has fallen over the past 5 days. I too, enjoy this weather.

I was surprised when I got home from work because there wasn't much activity on radar at all today - almost everything was to my west/northwest.

So far today, .25" of rain has fallen.

Probably is since Josh Harris is the owner...

You're not wrong on that!

LOL!

If they win out they will finish with the EXACT record you predicted prior to the season. Trust me, I know...I don't forget things like this. LOL

Noted. I won't say much else. I see no reason to engage. Not how I roll.

58 to 63 here.

A very discouraging 2nd half of the season aside, the O's are in. Last year they pretty much went wire to wire, won over 100 games, and then promptly got swept in 3 games right on out of the playoffs. Seems like in recent years (2022 Phillies, 2023 Diamondbacks) that it's almost better to make a run being a Wild Card. Let the Yankees win the division and let's see if this team can get something done with lower expectations on them. One thing's for certain - they won't do worse in the postseason compared to last year. Unlike last year, no one is talking favorably about the Orioles. I kind of like that.

That's actually really impressive. Over 48 hours in September sitting at 60 degrees or below. Can't happen that often...

I have proudly had my AC run during every month of the year. Last winter I had my heat on less than 20 days/nights. My electric bill is usually in the $115-$140 range year round. Gas fluctuates a lot more.

@Jns2183 - best wishes to you. What an incredibly scary time, so glad you are improving.

Finished yesterday with .61" - 1.39" since Saturday evening.

High today in Maytown so far is just 62 - and an unexpected .44" of rain has fallen and it's still adding up.

Oh - well, I was just going off of CTP's forecast and nothing else. They have highs in the low 70s with sunshine heading into the weekend. 80s is a little warm for me at the end of September.

The end of the week looks beautiful from what I'm seeing?

You could not have picked a better response - I love that guy. Bill Glass is the name of the Progressive guy in those commercials. I only know this because after I saw him the first time, I had to know. I think I know more about Bill Glass than anyone else on this forum. I laugh out loud every time he's on TV. And why am I bragging about that...

I'm staring down the big 6-0 and ready to embrace my oldness. Also, since this is a weather forum, it's sprinkling. Outside.

I haven't heard or seen anything about this until you posted the link - we are hearing and seeing a lot about significant damage in York last night.

Considering what's fallen over the past 6 weeks...absolutely.

I wonder - MDT had over 2" (right?) while I had .78" SE of the airport and he's SE of me.
