Sometimes …. It’s all that’s needed ….. as always……

………………………………………………. “why winter is even worth it ….…………………………………………… because of …”just hanging out having a great time and seeing the kids just enjoying themselves” …. your same 14 words. Stay well, as always ….

To educate/help the non professional (and I don’t mean not intelligent) descriptive terms like heat dome are preferable to ‘ mid-tropospheric ridges’. When you’re trying to get the public’s attention on heart health would you talk about the potential of getting a ‘widow maker’ or a mycardio infarction. Which one is likely to keep the pedestrian reading? In either case both sides of the equation is equal. it’s actually good to have a person of different opinion in a group as a leavening agent. Providing that all discussions and retorts are civil and not just superficial. For that reason, during a period of time when our sub forum area may face a cold season event I look to read S19’s thought. and forky’s along with, like yourself, other well versed members..if all else fails I just listen to the ballad Turn, Turn, Turn and straighten myself out. Stay well, as always ……

Good morning BW. Is this anomalous heat over a permafrost area? Could repeated outbreaks like this cause a a more extensive release of methane gas? I remember in my younger days reading about snows in the Dakotas during September. The white blanket, north to south, may now be marching to quite a different drummer. Thank you, Don, Walt,Tip, S19 and many others for your posts. They help to fill my extensive void in the relevant knowledge department. As always ….….

Caution Liberty, nycwinter may be on to something. As always …..

Amazing BW ….. 3 of the top 5 occurred within the last 4 years. As always …..

For your granddaughter: ……. “comhghairdeas o’ chroi’” ….. as always …

Too many Vito’s in mine. My mom bucked the tradition 78+ years ago. The contentious fallout, sadly, lasted for decades. As always ….

Thank you Rob. Pretty close to my own, except for the La and final a. As always …..

Perhaps the middle name and only if Liberty passes Anthony’s post count by the birth. As always …..

In traditional Italian families the first son takes the name of the paternal grandfather. Sadly for Anthony’s son this would be a posthumous honor. As always ….

Congratulations to the Mom to be and yourself. Please change/use your avatar to let us know the result. May the future surround you with grand and great grand children. As always …..

Damn FP, I’d do that myself if I was guaranteed it would work. As always ….

Good late morning everyone. A news article on the Accu weather site highlighted the occurrence frequency of 100 degree temperatures in US states/cities. The article stated that NYC has reached this temperature 60 times since the early 1900’s, yet not once in the last 13 years. I have the good fortune of belonging to this forum and while snapshot articles like this are beneficial and superficially informative they are, in a way, misleading. Our city temperature is taken and recorded for general public reporting at a beautiful urban oasis known as Central Park, located in its smallest borough, Manhattan. The city has experienced boroughs wide 100 degree temperatures in the last 13 years. The Accu weather daily report showed my Cobble Hill Brooklyn neighborhood standing at 103 degrees while the official Central Park ASOS temperature never went above 99. The screenshot of the NYC portion of the article is below. As always ….
