  1. We really don't average that much snow in Dec...Metro stations around 4.5" or so, and big storms are uncommon. We've been spoiled lately to think otherwise.
  2. I remember having those same fears on a few occasions in the 90's and earlier 2000's, and things righted themselves and worked out ok...Lets hope it happens that way again.
  3. 78/67 temp split today... 0.43" rain, most of it this evening along with some thunder.
  4. Exactly..Its something I've said many times. Outside of a person's profession and specific areas of education...many are totally oblivious.
  5. Did have 13 days with measurable rain however and 8 days with 0.25" or greater which is pretty good for July. Of course it varied across our region...but like you said it won't be remembered as wet and terrible.
  6. Wow big difference in relatively short distance...about 9" here during that period.
  7. Yeah lower dews but temp only down to 77°...Another 90° day.
  8. They thought Wednesday was Thursday and vice versa .
  9. Was nice to see the "Lil League" on the field last evening.
  10. Seemed pretty quiet here...think there were more two weeks ago.
  11. You too! Thank you for all you do Tony.
  12. Yep remember the criticisms of the bloated city and state budgets the last couple of years...the economy was great so they spent like a drunken sailor, while some warned to be careful cause you never know. Well guess what "you never know" happened. Time to pay the piper and tighten your belts.
  13. Astro spring at my station turned out to be the 7th coolest in 43 years and the coolest since 2003. Precip of 9.50" was the 4th driest, with about 70% of that total occurring last week of March and April.. Of course it's been very dry now since May.
  14. ^^^^ I remember that storm well...My wife and I had a meeting that we had to attend the next morning in Manhattan...Had to shovel out the car at 4am and drive a couple miles to catch the bus into the city.
  15. Hard to pick out a favorite snowstorm but the boxing day storm may be it for me...The storm itself coupled with it occurring around Christmas...We always would go to my parents on Christmas day to celebrate...Knowing there was a blizzard coming the next day seemed too good to believe.
  16. I didn't know about the story of Stephan Baltz...Wow so sad...I was 11 months old when that accident occured.
