  1. Quit hating! I had a kick ass mullet back in the day.... 28F/Breezy
  2. I think the getting shafted meter is rather high on this one. Certainly not a lock. That beside said, even 1" will look pretty cool w/the Christmas lights and cold in place.... 28F
  3. Decently heavy echoes. If only we had some cold air around....
  4. This has been running through my head all day...
  5. Does drought guy have relatives in NY? NY subforum has several recent drought related post. Right up his alley....may want to get him on the horn.
  6. Brown had like 100 yards receiving but had a less than stellar game. He missed that perfectly thrown ball by Hurts late in the game for a TD which would have put the birds in good position. And the play you mentioned. Back to Hurts, during the broadcast Aikman drilled him a couple times about not seeing wide open guys for big plays and he was right.
  7. At least we are talking inches not tenths. 32F partly cloudy soon to be winter day...
  8. His field vision is horrible this year. He can't check off the primary receiver and hit someone who is usually wide open and camping out right in front of him in the middle of the field...usually Goedert.
  9. 14F when I checked the temperature at 7:30 a.m. May have reached my goal of 13F a little earlier...
  10. They wanted to win not tie. But I wouldn't have thrown into traffic... 14F
  11. Midnight, Birds just lost in OT on Hurts 4th int and it's 18F...
  12. Currently we only had two since 2018 of 6 inches or more so we're not exactly setting records. We also had that long-ass snow drought mixed in there...
  13. Your idea of snowfall is different from mine. Snow that doesn't stick to blacktop I do not count. It's unproductive snow. And when it snowed back then streets stayed covered for several days if not a week plus. I would sled down a hill in front of my house on the street for several days after a storm. Now with brine and them salting the shit out of everything streets are pretty much black by the next day. In addition tons of private contractors plowing everything. Also back then I was 4 ft so everything seemed deep. Now 6 ft+ not so much. You can pull up all the graphs you like but winters were better in the past.
  14. Pretty much my/my parents line up but I was able to watch the entire Carol Burnett show if I was able to stay awake. Tim. Conway, Harvey McCormick, Vicki Lawrence etc Shooting for 13F tonight....
  15. Jim Gardner would always have a WTF look on his face after a Don Polec segment. He was a strange cat. To this day I don't know if that was the real him or TV persona...
  16. Yep, remember him and his segment. He looked like a scientist or doctor. Remember the "Green Grocer" Joe Carcione...
  17. Barely rings a bell? Probably because my parents never watched channel 3...
  18. Herb was Ch 10 and Robert's and O'Brien were Ch 6 back in the day. Who was the Ch 3 weather person, Tom Lamaine ?
  19. Growing up during the 70s and 80s I remember snowfall predictions like this for a decent storm: SNJ/Shore: 1-3" w/some mixing Philly Immediate. S&E: 2-4' Immediate NW Burbs: 3-6" Lehigh Valley/Berks: 4-8" Poconos: 5-10"+ We don't even sniff those type of totals any longer. Good old Herb:
  20. I understand this but most people do not. And I understand their point of view as well. If you told the average person we had three events so far this winter they would think you're sniffing glue or huffing paint...
  21. You have to remember the majority people are not snow weenies like us. We do not see 2-4/3-6 stuff that often anymore. We are dorks and calculate 0.4" snow falls and add them all up. Most people write that off as it didn't snow or not an actual snow storm. Those people are correct. And if it doesn't stick the road and inconvenience them they write that off as nothing as well where you will calculate that into our annual snowfall. Winters were definitely better years ago...
