This just has the feel of what could have been. -
Great deep winter day. Took the wife and 2 year old out looking for seals here along the south shore. We don’t see a single damn one. But my 2 year old thinks seagulls are hilarious for some reason. And we so tons of seagulls. So today was a win.

Agree with winterwx. It’s getting late now, but you can still get it done if you just have a few patches and time it right with the temps. The key is to get it germinated. I would cover the patches with burlap. It keeps the warmth and moisture in during the day.

I was on the beach this evening and the Long period swell is already hitting the beaches. It’s not terribly big (yet) but it is powerful. You can feel the difference even in ankle deep water between an ‘everyday’ wave and something generated by a hurricane.

So I guess Canada will be our source region for heat now?

Everything I’ve seen from gilgo east is almost as bad as Sandy. Some of the drone footage I saw out of montuak might even be worse. I also just saw in Newsday that Suffolk county has asked the governor to declare a state of emergency there to open the door to federal funds. It’s tough because people see a named storm and the disaster declarations come immediately. They see “massive southeast fetch” and things are slow to happen.

I think what he is saying is his expectations for his own PWS. Being in a residential area you don’t get the same observations as you do at the airport or other official locations where the stations are unobstructed.- 3,610 replies

Wow I didn’t realize the Islip buoy broke free. I can’t remember the last time that happened. Sucks we won’t have wave measurements from the location for this storm (and Friday as well)- 3,610 replies

What’s the rule for a “trace” of snow. I thought I remember someone saying even if it’s not accumulating whatsoever, if there are snowflakes falling, it’s considered a “trace”- 3,610 replies
