Now we need the rain.
After this dry week, I am on board the rain is needed train.

The theme of ferroequinology still has its grips on the forum!

And the thing is you can’t toss it because most runs of the GFS are showing this and now the CMC has lows in the 30s next Saturday for some of PA as well.

A few days ago what looked like a sure bet to end May with positive averages is in trouble as we are still below average at MDT after yesterday.  Will probably go positive after tomorrow but even if GFS is 10 degrees too cold the averages plummet late week. 

EC Rain for early week trying to get Eastern LSV in the game.    Include Late week and the bonanza is in.  Note that I realize this may ruin some weekend plans and not rejoicing in that just on drought watch.  Tom might be hitting flood stage on his River in E NJ.

CTP going with mid 70s for now - I guess that's the smart call this far out. 

I will NOT get out any such thing at any point before next winter.   

Shorts in the mid 40's is ballsy.  LOL

Why does it seem like every "summer" holiday is either rainy, cold, or both? Cookouts, swimming, and fireworks always seem to be ruined or in jeopardy. 

Seems like the rain would be gone for Most of Sunday and Monday...of course its a week away. 

Goofus still says that we will be sick of rain two weeks from now and get out your coats and long pants for Memorial Day weekend. 

MDT stays below 60 from Friday AM until Tue afternoon on the GFS.  Ha!

Not lodging a complaint about any rain at this point but does it always have to be on a weekend?

And King CMC has jumped aboard the “next weekend will be cooler” train, though still warmer than the GFS.

Rains from Friday Am until Sunday Am nonstop in parts of the LSV.   This Mon the King drops the temp from near 70 At Midnight to 55 late afternoon at MDT.

While we approach 90 this week, it is still snowing out West!

 

Never a good sign for snow here when it is snowing out west.  We are probably SOL until June now. :-)

I feel personally responsible for your grass now. 

Models in fairly good agreement this AM.  Significant rains for Western and Central luv return Monday.  Eastern lsv back in the wet late week.

Caps Shiiting the bed tonight. 

Same crap different year

One very important missed checked in the defensive zone, in game 2,  could lead to 3 straight losses at this point.    Stars not showing up is hurting as well.

The obvious answer is no, that would be Alex Trebek. The greatest, and he’s Canadian.

Well, I was talking "current" hosts re: RIP.

I think Aaron took a few days to grow into the role, but he was a 75 degree late August day with a dewpoint of 48 when he settled in.

So Aaron is the CMC of the show?   Everyone else is just like the Euro or GFS trying to catch the king. 

Just now, canderson said:

I'll take, "What are words no one should ever say?" for $800, Alex. 

Don't you mean Aaron?

Good disco going, thanks both for the updates.

Meanwhile, it's a sunny and warm 86 here now. 

I feel personally responsible for your grass now.

I’m inclined to believe the CMC, it’s the hot hand (literally and figuratively) at the moment.

CMC is definitely hotter than GFS,   Still a bit jumpy. Fortunately it still has a nice dose of qpf for Training.   More late week than early like GFS.   Good example of the jumpiness in that it lowered the early week qpf from 0z.

We’ll see what the CMC thinks momentarily.

Just some minor differences,  Ha

Those Friday afternoon temperatures look fun.

Break out the coats.  (We know it will change though)

Please, please be right Bubbler. WPC still isn't buying what you're selling: (.10" - .25") 

 

12Z GFS says to jump aboard the rain train though it does not get going in earnest until late next week vs. early.

Some rain Mon, Tue and Wed but more significant waits until Friday.

Been going every year since Heinz opened and we are the biggest jinx in sports history. It's comical - back in I think 2014, Tampa came to Heinz and beat the Steelers in the last minute. The Bucs finished 2-14 that year, yet won in Pittsburgh with their backup QB playing. THAT was a brutal loss. (and a VERY long drive back east to Lancaster) 

Never saw a Steelers game at 3 Rivers, but I used to make weekend trips there to see the Buccos when i was younger. I'm not a Pirates fan but it was so easy to get great seats out there.  

Anecdotal comment....I have been to Heinz once to see a Steelers/Cowboys preseason game.   It was years ago but they had giant Ketchup bottle which would do something, maybe turn to the side like it was pouring, when the Steelers go in the "red zone".   I have neve been able to shake that image when I put Ketchup on something.  Sometimes I hum the accompanying music while doing it.
