  1. I’m not shocked. They run a remedial offense. Penn State would have trucked them had Clifford not gone down. I lost a lot of respect for Ferentz this past week too with his comments about the injuries. They got what they deserved.
  2. I’m not Training ha but I can tell you they were just garden variety.
  3. 78 is as high as I’ve gotten today and it looks like that will be the max as clouds starting to build and some small cells starting to pop to the southwest.
  4. Topped out at a beautiful 76 yesterday and bottomed out at a crisp 56 last night. Looking forward to the first real cold frontal passage of the season on Saturday, as we look to shave about 15 degrees off the 850s. Love this time of year.
  5. Oh yes I am keenly aware of the midnight cutoffs and the confusion they can create. In this instance I was just rushing and didn't think it through haha but you are spot on. We are likely to get screwed by both the saturday afternoon frontal passage and the temps in the 50s tomorrow morning. So, even though there will be a solid 24 hour period where the temp doesn't drop below 64ish, it will be split up in a way that won't allow for any records, as we've all seen countless times before, but that's how the cookie crumbles sometimes. In short, I take back everything I said and there will be no records being breached. I will now crawl back into my cave.
  6. Haven't been around much lately, busy busy, but just popping in to remind everyone not to record that dew as liquid precip. I had damn near .02" in the gauge this morning but you aint foolin this guy! Fog is nice and soupy this morning. So it appears we have an outside shot at a high temp record friday and then a much better shot at a max min record friday night. Cool beans.
  7. You're not imagining things. It absolutely is the warmer nights that contribute more to the positive monthly departures. The monthly weather summaries for MDT almost always confirm that.
  8. Good luck! They love the Maples and especially the weed tree Tree of Heaven.
  9. According to my buddy's WU station, he got .1" between roughly 11:30-11:50pm and then another .06" between roughly 1:30-2:30am.
  10. .13" for me last night, .05" on Sunday. September total was 8.88" but exactly half of that came on September 1st. Peter Sinks, UT hit 8 degrees last night. Carry on friends.....
  11. Bottomed out at a brisk 43 here last night, can almost smell the snow.
  12. I checked quite a few stations around MDT on WU and they were mostly right around or just under 2" so it seems to check out. Keep in mind that I am closer to you than say, Etown is to MDT, and yet you got 1.11" more than I did. These things happen. I think the tropical downpours were a bit more sporadic than people realize yesterday.
  13. 2.75" event total for me and an overnight low of 47. Weather for the extended outlook looks beyond splendid. Enjoy all!
  14. Only about .05” here so far. Looks like our main action comes tomorrow morning.
  15. Looks like model wars, with the NAM/Euro keeping the highest totals just to the west and the GFS/CMC bringing the goods more out this way. Either way looks like a cool little event, with the slow propagation of the cold front and the placement of the inverted trough. Bring it on.
  16. It is true that the Orioles are a special kind of bad haha but hey they are still battling it out with the D-backs for worst record, both tied at 48-102! Yeah looking more and more like a potent little event. You will crush me this month. I shouldn't end up anywhere near a foot.
  17. It's baseball, everyone loses to bad teams, many times over. But I hear ya, they need to take care of business with everything that's on the line.
  18. I dipped to 55 last night, 53 the night before. Not much rain here the last couple of weeks but it looks like we should be in for some nice inverted trough action Wednesday into Thursday. Throw in some comfortable temps, sign me up. Also, it should be noted that the national high of 109 yesterday did not occur at Death Valley, but rather Rio Grande Village, TX. Carry on.....
  19. Game was awesome, as always. Thanks for asking. Tailgated all day with a solid group and left with no voice ha. As for the game itself, I thought it was a very competitive and physical affair. Auburn impressed me with how they handled the environment. Speaking of which, what Penn State has done with the whiteout over the years is really something special and unmatched in college football as far as I'm concerned. We're going to the Auburn game next year so I look forward to seeing how things compare down there. They really showed out with a lot of their fans making the trip and I think it will be the same with Penn Staters down there next year. These games are good for the sport, not enough of them. I actually recorded the game and started rewatching it last night, since you know, things get a little hazy with the night games and all day tailgating haha. Such an impressive scene. The only other home game I can make this year is Michigan, selling off the rest of my tickets.
  20. Well I won't make the set of Gameday because they are doing it in front of Old Main and I'll be tailgating all day over in the lots by the stadium, but exciting nonetheless that they are making an appearance for the fifth straight year. Man, you're always taking it to me with your totals. Have fun up at the game! I had to sell a number of my games this year, you know, the baby and all make trips a little tougher to swing these days. Got to pick and choose my battles ha.
  21. .37" from a solid little storm last eve. Getting ready to head to Happy Valley tomorrow for the whiteout. My excitement and anticipation are starting to reach dangerous levels.
  22. Damn, we're running out of places to grab a beer up there. Haven't been to the Coach Stop Inn, will have to pop in the next time I'm up. Couldn't agree more about the state of the labor market.
  23. Were ya at The Log Cabin Inn? Or perhaps the Wonder Bar in Galeton?
  24. 1.06" of heavy stuff and a nice T&L show. My monthly total is..........6.66"
