TheTrials Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Toss the GFS, NAM has the hot hand, plus it seems like it wants to be wet of late. that would suck if I lose another monday tee time. Hopefully NAM is too wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah rain around this time of year is useless, because its so much uncomfortable with the high humidity. This weather can wait until October.

Last Friday was not uncomfortable. It was pouring in the 60's. Felt refreshing outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-X Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 AG-- nice pictures, I especially love the deep blue skies in the first picture and the bottlenosed dolphins in the second picture. Priceless! However, the third picture could have been a prizewinner if you had used a circular polarizer filter to remove the reflections caused by the glass. It would have made the glass disappear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like extreme rainfall totals like last Sunday. I dont like it when its in the upper 70s with dp in the low 70s lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Osprey landed unexpectedly and I ran and shot the picture with a cell phone. Friend tells me the Osprey visits his balcony almosy daily. Next time I visit him, I'm gonna bring a real camera.

A-L-E-X Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Except that no doubt you sat there camped out with lots of equipment and probably put bird seed or a dead rat on the balcony so the damn bird would appear. Mine was spontaneous with 50 pounds of clubs on my back with a cell phone camera and my bird is 10 times the size of yours. LOL this is hilarious. Imagine what the Red Sox guys would be saying if you and AG posted these pics all the time they trolled us in our thread and started a random bird photography discussion and completely ignored their trolling haha. There's an idea for next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great view you have, I would kill for that to take pics of snowstorms and sunrises/sunsets on a tripod!

I remember driving north of Northern Boulevard in the fall and admiring the amazing fall colors you can see next to the water. This was near the Queens/Nassau line-- there's a Subway up there I eat there at sometimes. The drive from Great Neck to Bayside in the fall is awesome.

IsentropicLift Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 The chances of us seeing some impact from 97L down the road seem fairly high, almost every run of the globals for the past several days track it close to our region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
