E PA/NJ/DE Spring 2022 OBS Thread


 Share

Recommended Posts

There are others of us who like "weather", no matter what type and certainly we do get severe and recently, an uptick of tornadoes, along with some kind of hurricane/TS remnant coming over the CWA.

As an obs, had a low of 30 this morning and it's currently at 46 with dp 28.  Since we had more sleet yesterday than other areas, there are still patches of frozen in the shaded grassy areas.

I've always been more of a snow fan.   A snowstorm is not as damaging as an ice storm, tornados, hurricanes, tropical storms, and flooding events.  You hunker down during the storm, then go out when it's over,  move it out of the way and get on with life.  

I do read the tropical section when there is a threat of a US landfall.  

Right after my husband passed we had Ida and I had to refill and start a generator for 2 days after my son set it up.  Not fun.  Hoping I don't have to do that again.

57 out. Cleaned up some sticks and leaves in the yard in preparation of putting down some pre emergent Wednesday. Probably run to Home Depot after work and get my propane tanks swapped out and get mulch for the flower bed. Thinking of washing the deck and bringing the deck furniture out this week too and replacing the canopy on my grill gazebo thing. Gonna be rocking and rolling come first day of spring ahead of the game. Really nice today and looks to be getting better.

Not to be fooled by fake spring. Strong guidance indications of significant cold wave in the last five days of March. Possibly snow if a wave is timed right. Same pattern of more warmth than cold interspersed by a deep cold wave. The EKG pattern. 

In like a lamb out like a polar bear?

If it's gonna be cold, I say let it snow! Did you plant your onions yet?

I just humped 3 bags of salt from the garage to the shed and applied a round of fertilizer and bug-be-gone to the front and back yard. Also checked the state of my generator, noticed the starter batt didn't have enough juice to crank, and then I noticed some idiot had left the fuel line open since the last time it was run. (Dammit.) She wouldn't start from the pull start, either. Now, I know the gas that was in there was stabilized, but it's probably been a year since I (er, I mean, some idiot) had run it. So I guess I'll be doing a carb teardown at some point in the near future.

Got up to 71.9°F here today. Everybody (besides me) was grilling, the neighborhood smelled awesome.
