Itstrainingtime

I went to ALCS games in Baltimore on weekday afternoons in 1979 and 1983. I miss afternoon postseason baseball.

Game 3 tomorrow was moved up from 6pm to 1pm to try and avoid some of the weather issues.

3.76" here. There's a station about 1 mile NW of me that topped out just over 4".

Most rain at my casa in a very long time. Right now I'm at 3.73". Still some bands of convective showers moving up out of MD. Feeling greedy and hoping to reach 4".

3.46" with a thunderstorm arriving now.

Nice to have an event that over performs. Just passed the 3" mark with more to come.

2.66". Rain has stopped for now.

2.05" and raining.

Total expected rainfall from WPC is yet another reduction:

Their expected rainfall for PA has been reduced on each of the last 4 cycles they've put out. Discouraging. Yesterday morning, the entire southern half of PA was in the 1.5"+ area. (purple shading)

They might give up 500 yards just in rushing yards tonight. I can't believe what I'm watching.

Please, please win tonight. I have tickets to the Division Series, NLCS and World Series. I'd like to get down to at least 1 or 2 more games. I'm ready for the weekend. 80s in October are no bueno to me. But, it's to be expected, so there's that.

I think it's probably a good bet that winter will average out AN. Certainly warmer than last winter was, unfortunately. Hopefully we can time up the southern jet stream with temps "just cold enough" to bury us in white gold at some point. Also - we still have a hummingbird in our back yard!!!

Sunshine and temps in the 60s here in Pittsburgh. Perfect afternoon for imperfect football.
