I’m counting on wrap-around rains to save the day 

Screw it, I don't want anything. Take away the winds as well and just call today a nice normal Fall Sunday with football...

Shore special. Not really budging West...

Conditions continue to deteriorate as I’m getting filtered sunlight, 62F.

Just ready to say this. Yeah, it brightened up out there...still gusty though.

Nothing official but seemed like some 40mph+ gust out there...

That was such a textbook Nina style rug pull leading up to this crud storm. Can't make this stuff up.

Hope it's not a sign of things to come. This would have been a real Debbie downer if snow was involved...

..

The shore receiving some nice steady stuff...

I have some ideas but not going to unleash them yet. 

Gotcha.

Another wave ready to roll through...

Pretty sure this won't be neutral. But what do I know? (restrain yourselves from answering that last part, ty)

I was going to send someone out to wake you from your den. 

Winter thoughts or still compiling?

First heavy duty band just roll through. Sky's already brightening..

All I know is that when drought guy posts, I expect the exact opposite to happen in my area.

Yes, he made this prediction on page 3 of thread on 9/19:

1. Being a neutral year, we are in for a real cold and snowy winter which will definitely help the groundwater tables. See lots of northeaster's and the potential freezing rain/sleet  events early in December. 

(Yep, this winter is cooked. I expect a warm winter with very little snow.)

Let's give him a chance, he has to hit once in a while. 

Cecily's should be coming up within a month. I think FOX has theirs within the same time frame. Did channel cbs3 and channel nbc10 gave up on the winter outlook forecast. Not sure?

Hope it stays 500 miles off the coast. I have some outside things to do and driving sucks in the rain. Plus it'll piss drought guy off and he'll post more...maybe even make a winter prediction if he hasn't already.

I suppose the only good thing about last night is the Flyers are still in the running for Gavin McKenna 

Phillies losing the game,series and season was by far the worst loss yesterday. And the way they lost on a bonehead error hurts even more...

Okay, now you post a pic of yourself, and we can all compare.

 

now, back to the weather!

Gave her a 6/10 which is above average. But she could do better. Settle down...

Cecily is old...I want MORE Payton! 

6/10

Needs to do something with the hair. It looks burnt/fried...

Cecily 30 years at action news today.. I'm old.

And here I was thinking how beautiful the weather is.  lol.   It is boring as hell, though.  I'm really craving a tropical or coastal system.  Doesn't have to be a Sandy, but just something with wind, rain, and low level clouds ripping at 60 knots.   

I'm just tired with this weather because it's boring and warmer than I would like. Give me a lightning / thunderstorm resulting in a brush fire and I would be happy for the time being.

I see the geese flying in there arrow formation South. I don't know why but maybe they do??

I am completely done with these 80f+ sunny days. Bring on fall, 50s, cloudy with winds...

I was in college and had a part time job at a supermarket. The night Gloria hit, I had the 6 to midnight shift. I had to round up all the shopping carts, so I made a “raincoat” out of a Hefty trash bag.  
 

Drove back to school with branches coming down. Next day we played a mud football game against the girls. 
 

You're not alone, I used to do this for midnight blues fishing just in case of a pop up thunderstorm. I'd bring a bunch of two ply hefty bags. (It rained more than would you think) People loved it! Good times.

Go Phils and Birds!

The Eagles won one for Bernie today. 

Merrill was shaking on that final play... I thought he may pull a Harry K and die what he loved doing as well...

The shaded spots are difficult to secure, with the falling leaves there will be no shade truly trying times

Actually, the Walmart in Warrington, Warminster and Hatfield etc...all have signs now no overnight stay. Like usual, people took advantage and made it their home rather than one night thing and be on your way. Probably left trash behind as well. Pizza boxes, Old Milwaukee, Pabst cans etc. Something Eddie from the movie Vacation would do...

Leaves are yellow and falling off the trees in the Wal Mart parking lot in mass. Too early looks strange.

Not included in the abnormally dry in the last drought maps i have seen which is bizarre it's a tinder box in the woods.

Drought guy were in trouble man

 

Yellow leaves here and the winds picked up so they are falling at a good rate.

And what the hell are you doing in a Walmart parking lot observing leaves falling? I may join you with a couple cold ones... 

Already 74F, looks to be the last 80F+ for a while... maybe even till next year.

What the fook? Just heard thunder  

.10” on the day so far.

I thought it was a 18-wheeler hitting a pothole. 

Overall, a nuisance light drizzle/rain. Just enough to keep the critters happy.

Still dark, 6:00 a.m.

Heavy trace

Pretty much, nothing worth noting...

No offense bro but thank god you’re not running the team. Jalen Carter is a generational DT talent. You don’t give those away. Not to mention safety is one of the lowest positional values in the league. You’re not getting a player of Carter’s caliber back even if you got 10 first rounders. That’s why I laugh at what GB paid for Parsons. That is absolutely nothing for a generational pass rusher. They don’t grow on trees and they aren’t available every draft. There is no trade of Jalen Carter that doesn’t make the team significantly worse.

I look at Carter's mishap as young and dumb. If it continues then yes it is a problem. I'm sure veteran teammates had a talk with him. But yeah, he is a talent and they don't grow on trees...
