We knew something was up as early as June 2009. Record -NAO -AO pattern emerged with solid trough development underneath. It was actually the 6th coldest June and July on record for the Northeast going back to 1895. It was a beautifully refreshing summer that year. Then the CONUS scored their 4th coldest October on record since 1895 from coast to coast. So in some ways it was a warmer mirroring of the 1976-1977 historic cold pattern which emerged during in the summer of 1976. But it didn’t have the extreme level of cold in 1976-1977. Most on here were fine with that since the snowfall pattern was so much better than in 1976-1977.

Even getting a little tanning in today. Not terrible at all

The fact that OKC still has some great draft capital left, is outrageous lol. Part of that was great timing because it was clear that Kawhi wanted to play alongside PG13, so OKC basically fleeced the Clippers. The Wiz had a chance to do something similar when Beal's stock was high, but they sat on it for too long and basically ended up having to cut their losses. I think they had a chance at getting 3-4 first rounders for Beal at his peak performance, which is one of the reasons I wasn't a huge fan of the new front office blowing things up, but I will say they've done a respectable job so far with the draft picks they've had (though Sarr is still a wildcard). Looks like Tre Johnson is who they're eyeing. I'm not sold on Queen at the NBA level, but if the Wiz are able to add another mid-first, then I'd consider rolling the dice.

Haha..JFK has had 12 top 3 low makes since 2000 from 5-21 to 6-2. But I know this would be preferable for many during the winter. These late May cutoffs have been very persistent over the period.

Its spinning over Maine the next 24 hours

More rain. No win. Violent lose.

Certainly is green.

Spark up the grill.

Nothing like a long rain delay at Citi Field yesterday, clears up then monsoons again. Absolutely drenched during the game. Was amazed how many fans stayed till the 8th when it started pouring again. The cold temps didn't help either. Gorgeous day now with clouds finally clearing and blue skies prevailing. Can someone share that cocorahs link for rainfall totlas? I need to save link at work.

This actually passes for decent. Transitioned to partly sunny sky conditions and into the lows 60’s. Okay with t-shirt and jeans. Big win today.

I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend! We're having our cookouts tomorrow and Monday. I'm glad the weather is looking pretty good for both days with temps warming up a little bit. Should see 70 tomorrow and mid 70s on Monday. Today still isn't the greatest with the clouds and cool breeze with high temps only making it to the mid 60s.

Make sure you "try them out" in the store before you buy one.

Good enough

Yes the farther south the better. New England type climates suck so it's best to be as far away from that region as possible.

isn't that ULL *moving out* though, that's what all the TV mets have been saying.

@Ginx snewx This thing has already put on a foot this year…more than any other tree I have. After years maybe it’s finally done with the taproot.

Yeah some periods of sun with popcorn showers in between. In a SHRA currently. 53.5° so far is a win!

Still raining. 47F. Snowing up at 4kft.

It is. They do have some good building blocks that just need experience. Happy to see a vets like Middleton and Smart there to teach. Still miffed about the draft lottery; too much of a coincidence to not make you wonder. OKC did a great job building their team. Hoping the Wiz can do the same.

Much better today than forecasted. Lots of breaks and up near 60 already.

another EF-2

The Whittle–Somerset–London–Lida, Kentucky tornado has been rated EF-4 at the Sunshine Hills subdivision and EF-3 at and near the London Corbin Airport. In total, the tornado went 59.9 miles. https://www.foxweather.com/weather-news/kentucky-london-somerset-laurel-pulaski-tornado-recovery-death-toll

NYC had a max of 46 (26° BN) on 5/25/67, coldest max on record by 16 days (44 on 5/9/77, another remarkable day). They also had a 3-day cold snap in mid-March (16-18) that had means of -23/-28/-26, followed by a 9.8" storm a couple days later. It was also memorable in NNJ - March had 30"+ snowfall, a max of 10 on 3/17 and low of -3 the next day. April 24 had 1.5" as a coastal storm was finishing then 3" overnight on the 27th, the 2 latest dates I recorded measurable snow. May 25 rain was modest, but wind toppled several newly leaved oaks.

I think a hire like that is coming, but for now they seem content letting the team struggle/learn and get picks. One more year of this and it’ll be go time…if not sooner…if Keefe doesn’t show improvements. This upcoming draft is huge for them.
