  1. Looking over morning runs, it appears that Saturday(ish) is our transition day away from this weeks Indian summer and verbatim would suggest a notably cooler regime getting established for us. Most majors show it locked in thru end of run cycles. Looking forward to it, and as it will likely change some as we get further out...500's suggest trough seems to be hanging tough (although flattens a bit)here in the east so at the minimum, warmth will be diminished.
  2. Tuesday looks like a legit chance at 80. Savor it warmies....you might not see that for a while. I'll take it in stride.
  3. anxious to see if that 540 line continues to show up here in the NE next weekend. Would be chilly for sure if it holds. My make first fire in woodstove next weekend.
  4. had to look at your post 2x to make sure I was reading w/ both eyes open. Then i looked for myself. Yeah that's an impressibve deep purple over the NYC area. That would suck me thinks.
  5. AMEN..... Did I just lump myself into another camp by saying that?? cheers bro. any pics of the new ink, or is it in places NSFW? hehe
  6. Who here questions the warming? I'm waiting..... The question is the cause/effects that are being touted as gospel. As i said, for every point, there is a counterpoint, and in 5 seconds of a web search, one could refute many claims. We can do this all day, and really get nothing done...except further the divide. I've no interest in that. I will remain objective as we really have much to learn. I'm not here to argue and wont bash you/anyone for their beliefs...no matter what, but I'd suggest some of you offer the same mutual respect to something we really are still learning about. We've got a lot of learning to.
  7. "deniers" is really just a term one side uses to demean the other. It's really no more than that. Some just look at it through an objective lens. BIG difference
  8. Just reading this as I'm "catching up" after just typing my $.01 on climate change onsession. I literally typed the same stuff. Glad there is room on the boat named "about to be bashed" for the 2 of us.
  9. There's nothing acidic about stating ones beliefs in a weather forum full of weenies, and also there's not one person in here that holds absolute/empirical knowledge over the rest of us weenies. This is a forum that has a multitude of beliefs, but for any view from one side, there is a counterpoint from the other. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever, and that's largely why some of us are here, as weather is an imperfect and still largtely unknown and evolving science. Are we warming...sure. Are we responsible for SOME of it....sure. Truth is that there are truths/mistruths being touted by BOTH sides of the warming isles, and politics/money has corrupted enough of what we see/hear to raise ones objective eyebrow...on either side. Like you, I too am old enough to remember "the earth is gonna freeze" to "ocean fronts are gonna flood" stuff. Like Mt. Joy so eloquently stated, the truth is there is enough variability in it to warrant concern as to how much we can do, as well as how much can we "afford" to do with so many other more pressing and controllable or avoidable challenges in front of us as a global society. Great lakes were once part of the ocean, and we had 0% human involvement in that....and no money was spent trying to change it. It happened. I hope that point resonates w/ some of you. I guess my takeaway is that things change no matter how little or much we are a part of it, and based on what we know....we really still have a lot to learn about a planet that is 4.53 billion years old, and am truly wonder what we as a society can do in the next 50 yrs to "save" it from evolution. That's just ground truth.
  10. Yep. Weather forum "clickbait". No different than when it shows 12"+ IMBY...but its still 192hr away. At least this summer has brought some "consistency" to the mid/long ranges as they all can suck equally...no matter the time of year.
  11. If someone is willing to come from Iowa to watch their team get shellacked - just to be part of the experience....that tells me all I need to know about whiteouts
  12. Ive got an invite for 10/14 or 10/28 weekends but prob will see if I can get to a white out next year. Glad you had so much fun.
  13. yeah i was just thinking the same thing. Its already long and I likely dont get to mow/bail until thurs/friday. Red Hot Chili's tomorrow night, so to Hershey we go.
  14. We also took the first 1/2 of PSU whiteout in at local pub. Looked like it was not too bad weather wise (but I guess thats easy to say from inside and on a barstool). Some day I'll get to a whiteout. Looks like a great time. My last time tailgaiting 2 yrs ago first game of season was a fantastic experience.
  15. 2360' is about tops for my area. Ridge behind cabin is right where that is. My bro was fly fishing benn gully (class A fy fishing nut he is) in a t shirt, shorts and hiking boots. Came back soaked to the bone and was giddy about how cold it was. His wires don't touch (and he's likely part Neanderthal).
  16. High of 49-50 on Saturday up in northwoods. After cleaning chimney, we started a fire to take the chill out of the early autumn air as the rain started early saturday afternoon. It was moderately wonderful. also, cabin is at 2275' elevation for any that question my lacrosse digi weather guage accuracy.
  17. cloudy cool fall days in autumn are some of my favorite things. Enjoy.
  18. looks like se 1/2 of pa should get some decent rain in the bucket. Good to see. My wife is in Bethany beach. I told her to get on beach this morning and find a barstool this afternoon and enjoy time w/ gal pals. Im looking forward to coffee on back porch of cabin and putting some miles on my legs in the mountains tomorrow morning . Have a great weekend wherever you are. Life is good. edit - Go STATE
