Itstrainingtime

Had a couple rounds of flurries here this afternoon.

It was a wild ride a short time ago crossing the river on the turnpike. Held on for dear life.

Yes sir - big time snows are not favorable with the pattern. We can win much easier with a wave running under us that brings a 3-6", 4-8" type of deal. I'll sign immediately on that line. Safe travels to and home!

Picked up .57" of rain last evening. Very nice. Intrigued for next week...

I have an exceptionally busy week and might not be on as much as I'd like. Before I miss my opportunity...Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. 2025 has been a rough year in a lot of ways for myself personally as well as our family. That said, so much to be thankful for. Enjoy the holiday with your families. It is a a pleasure to come here and share common interests together and have fun doing so.

Yes we are!!!

"It’s my locker room." This team...for this team to drop 6 straight and play like this in response? Give it to him. @Mount Joy SnowmanI think you make a valid point, but I don't know how you look past him right now.

Exactly the same amount here.

That's really cool. Nerd alert: just this week I was on WGAL's YouTube page waxing sentimental while watching Joe's (and @AllWeather) videos from before and during the great January 2016 snowstorm. I love going back and reliving moments like that. There are videos on the page from about 3 days prior to the storm all the way through the event finale. Best part is watching the forecasted amounts go up and up as the event approached and played out. I do this probably once every few months. Truly.

Well...

I can confirm that it was all rain in Maytown. If there was anything else it was exceptionally brief and or a random pellet or two. Received a very beneficial .49" of rain, much of it fell between 11:00PM and 12:45AM. Like you, my temp was 39 throughout.

I had the same temp and experience. I tend to agree with @WmsptWx reasoning. To add on to his point about the team playing hard, look at all of the guys who came back this year who could have left early. No doubt the biggest reason was the thought of winning a national title. As the losses mounted, I kept thinking "how much do those guys regret the decision to come back?". And yet, there they are, flying all over the field and playing with a ton of passion. And it's why I'm PSU proud and it's why I'm choosing to take this from an otherwise demoralizing season. The past few weeks, this team has been fun to watch. They should have beat Indiana. I really hope they can bang out the final 2 games, get to a consolation bowl and send these guys off on a high note. They deserve it. As you said to me, so much has gone the worst way possible this year. Time to end it right.

Not the best start...

As soon as the wind picked up, the temp responded with it. 90 minutes ago my car was encased in frost and now it's 43 degrees.

It's funny, I refer to myself (proudly) as the "Anti-HR guy" in HR because I spent nearly 25 years working in warehousing both here and at my previous job. I think that's allowed me to keep a good pulse/relationship with the people here that truly matter...the ones that get shit done. So many people in HR are clueless about what's really important to the blue collar folks because they never lived in that world. I did. My career changed after I was here, married, raising my family and THEN I decided to go back to school while doing all of that. My HR career only dates back to 2015. I think I strike the perfect balance of holding the line but also being a voice for the people. I honestly love what I do.

Between 7am and 8am my temp went from 32 to 42.

Part of my job in regards to corrective actions is having 1X1 meetings with employees who violate what's essentially our code of conduct. It amazes (okay, saddens) me how many people in society today have lost the ability to treat others well. It isn't hard. If you don't have something nice to say, shut your mouth and walk the other way. I think the ability to hide behind a keyboard has emboldened people to say things they would have never said face to face prior to the internet/cell phone use.

I was wondering where you were. I haven't seen anything from you in a while.

Keep an eye on the winds this afternoon - CTP has gusts close to 30, MU says winds are going to reach 40 at times. Something to watch during a quiet weather period.

35 at 11pm last evening, 40 at 7am when I left for work today.

Please tell her how proud I am of her.

That was the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Thanks for a good laugh!

Stephen...I am truly proud of you. Welcome to the "no heat" team. Although, it's time for a confession - I might have turned my heat on last night when I went to bed. It was already down to 60 in the house and I was getting looks from my wife...

Low of 31 at home. Might be the only morning I'm below freezing for the next several days.
