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 ….….

……,….. 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 ….

Good morning and thank you Liberty. My strength is still knowing how to use a calculator and being retired having plenty of time to use it. Stay well , as always …..

No doubt about it Rob. I’ve enjoyed seeing, on occasion, the tread becoming the sub forums spring break. As always ….

At 8.2 not in the least S C. At my pace I’ll be 99 when I get clis3cto your present total. Besides I always get a great, albeit, nostalgic feeling when I see your avatar. Stay well, as always.

Liberty posts wherever, whenever and however he feels the need. He posts either in depth, anecdotal reaction or simply a comment. He always posts with civility which is always to his credit. In the month treads of our sub forum his posts rise to 45 to 50 percent of total. In this thread he is over 50 percent of total. In the NW & NE interior burbs thread he is only a little over 16% of the total. The high poster there is Irish Rob. You must realize that underneat his shamrock Rob hides a potent shillelagh. Stay well, as always ……

Well spoken dendrite! …… If only we could. As always ……

Well Liberty, only if we have and they can be filmed at a future forum get together. As always ….

One man’s car is another man’s big house. Stay well …….

Good morning all. 14:51 pm through 01:51 am, Ref NWS, Central Park received .32. The two day total was .60. As always …..

Understood and thank you for your kind response. I have stepped into MYOBY almost every day for the last half century. The reality of the change is sadly evident. I cannot in good conscience make fun of others for spouting what is to me demonstratively nonsense. If the present extreme results, whether as water or heat, do not give impetus to sincere discussion, perhaps when the ocean and water table co conspire and the flooded coastal city sewer system forces erupting street waste alerts ….. perhaps then self evident reflection will, unfortunately late, settle the ‘nonsense opinion’ issue. As always ….

If nothing else it might improve the hearing. Stay calm, as always …..

I would caution against the desire to ignore rather than the necessity to meaningfully engage. Playing with old sayings ….. one man’s ‘shit’ is another’s caviar and reversing it as needed. Either way we all eventually get to eat. Please stay well and regardless of the diet ….. engaged. As always ….

Perhaps someone who thinks the best of both worlds is possible. As always …

Perhaps too many. As always….
