  1. I disagree a lot. Some years yes. Some years it’s horrible. Period! I was a lifeguard for 10yrs…some years it(June)was great. Some years June was horrible. Also played softball for 30 plus years…and most years ya freeze in the early evening playing in May and early June…more often than not that was/is the case. Everybody has their own ideas, and that’s fine. But I’ve worked and played in so many cool wet May’s and June’s, I can’t even count. Sure, some years it’s warm hot, but many times no. That’s my experience. But if others feel differently, that’s fine. Just as some will say this winter was very good…cuz for some out east and SE it was a very good winter…but not for all/or not for a lot of us. But if it was good where you happen to live, then you feel differently than I do about this winter. We all have our own experiences, which shape our views of things/weather. So if some think late May and June is mostly warm, that’s cool. I’ve experienced otherwise many many times.
  2. For those with pools…ya don’t open em til mid June, many times can’t swim in them for another couple weeks most times after that. And ya close em early, maybe mid September at the latest most times. There’s your 2.5 to 3 months. Sure there will be a few more hot days thrown in, but the feel is different, and you know it’s over. Like we feel in mid March about the winter. Cuz like Gynx said, once the sun starts losing its punch, it’s over. And the first few dry leaves start falling and mucking it(the pool) up.
  3. Same here. But you get snow quicker there…just as we snow quicker than that inferno you lived in before!
  4. Are you serious? I can remember most memorial days my whole dam life(I’m 54), being cloudy and cool here, than not. And I live in a much better place at that time of year, of it being warm and sunny than you do. That’s why. Ya sure, there have been a few that have been hot and humid/sunny. But not usually. Not even close..not even here WOR.
  5. Oh I hear ya…but I’ll sell that on Memorial Day for sure! Almost never happens on Memorial Day. Once in a great while…but I’ll bet against it every time in SNE. Southern NJ on south ya. Not here for the most part.
  6. I guess we’ll see? But you have a much better chance of it being warmer than last year than not. But I’ll still sell on 90’s. Might be 90’s on May 18th or 25th, but memorial day will be cloudy and cool…more often than not.
  7. Lol…you got 5 weeks before that arrives. And last year, a month after that came and went, it was sheet rain and 45 degrees on Memorial Day weekend. And then 55 and raining on the 4th of July. Good luck Wiz!
  8. The problem is it’s the long range…lol. The long range has looked good to great all winter. It’s the short range up to go time that’s been the problem for most of us lol(you’re area being one of the exceptions.)
  9. 55 here with more clouds than sun…not the greatest, but better than 40 and rain like yesterday.
  10. I wasn’t hanging on, was just asking what they were seeing? They explained it, and said the pattern could certainly support a winter threat, that’s all. And as far as that phasing is concerned in the center of the country, it would not surprise me if that doesn’t phase as efficiently as it’s showing right now. All winter long nothing has really phased efficiently like models were showing early on, so that’s not a done deal yet either being a week out still. But honestly, I’m ready for consistent spring weather now, but we know that won’t really happen yet either.
  11. Here in central CT we did well in ‘97.. 13-14” easily. I don’t remember exactly what the shore got, but as Ryan said, it sounded like they did pretty well.
  12. Decent over there…lousy here. Maybe not a complete Rat..but close enough here. 15” below normal is sucky. Thought we might be able to score another 4-5”, but it looks like it’s gonna go out with a whimper.
  13. There was also a TON of great music in the 80’s too. In fact, the 80’s is considered one of the great music decades, along with the 50’s as well.
  14. I believe this April 2, 2018 deal, was the next day/morning after Easter Sunday. You’re not old enough to remember April 1982….full on Mid winter blizzard in April that year. Crippled the era…out of school for 3-4 days. So we can hope for a lot in April…but most times it doesn’t happen, but once in a while a big one comes to visit. Then of course there was April of 96, and April of 97 too.
  15. Don’t forget about us over here Scott…we need some redemption for this POS winter too. Steve Did great this year…his area cleaned up.
  16. Boxing Day 2010 sucked for a lot of folks in SNE…NYC AND NJ kicked ass. But then a couple weeks later the Jan 2011 pattern set in and it was incredible to say the least. Boxing Day anger (10+ inches here on 12/26/10), was quickly tempered when that Jan ‘11 pattern set in.
  17. Let’s see if we can pull it off…Climo was unfavorable for the October bomb of 2011, but it happened. So if it isn’t gonna be 65 and sunny, let’s try and get something exciting happening.
