Itstrainingtime

Bingo.

Oh, I wasn't arguing that for a second. My list of teams is merely all the teams/schools I despise enough to specifically root against them at pretty much every opportunity. Sure, if Dallas is playing Baltimore and a Raven win would eliminate the Steelers, I'm on the Jerrywagon.

It was sort of a painful process to put myself through... But then again...it's Dallas.

Cowboys, Eagles, Patriots, Phillies, Yankees, Rangers, Lakers, Celtics, Buckeyes, Wolverines, Crimson Tide would all cause me to do so.

I'm ready for a big warmup - already tired of my wife complaining about the AC being set at a temp above the air temp outside.

Did someone say the 'Boys were playing tonight? Time for a new picture! (I'll change each week going forward...guess to what it'll be)

Yep...let's get it cranking while we maximize the low sun angle. It's pack retention...

Numbers Thursday: Rain yesterday: 1.42" Rain since midnight: .56" Storm total: 1.98" Rainfall since 9/1: 9.37"

1.42" here, rain is increasing in intensity once again.

1.05" and counting. It's dumping!

Nothing will help the Eagles this year...

Severe Thunderstorm Watch: Adams, York and Lancaster until midnight.

Yes, thank you!

Ha, I didn't take it that you were questioning me - to be honest, I'VE been questioning the readings that I've been posting. It's nice to see that areas around me are representative of my station...but man, there have been times this summer where I've been like "well, this post is going to raise some eyebrows"

There has been a remarkable difference this summer - 45 days above 90 here, several days in August that were above 95. I recalibrated my station after it needed new parts...I have to believe it's accurate as I've been spot on with the Wunderground stations around me. Other odd thing is that I'm SW of Harrisburg, and on most of the hot days the wind direction has been S or SW...coming from the opposite direction of Harrisburg from my location. (mostly blowing straight from the total boondocks of daxx-land in East Prospect)

Trust me, where I live is much more rural than Palmyra...at least in the town of Palmyra itself. I'm not in an urban area in any way.

87.2 here now. Well represented by the map you posted. At least the breeze is quite pleasant.

86 here, making a run at 90 it seems.

That would also likely be very dry. I love cold, but let's use it to our advantage.

High for the day was 85 - we'll see if we add a few to that tomorrow.

Not really - if the Yankees would have taken care of business, they'd be 2.5 games ahead of Boston instead of .5 game.

Not surprised...September seems to be getting hotter and hotter in recent memory. We had what I thought was a beautiful spring this year; but generally speaking, seasons (to me) are becoming much more about extended cold in the spring and extended heat in the fall. That's nothing at all more than a perception.

BTW Red Sox fans...you're welcome. Nice to see the awful O's take a series from the Yankees in the Bronx over the weekend. Helped the Sox out in the process.

83.3 was the high temp - warm, but a gorgeous late summer day. Looking forward to a perfect evening outdoors.

It's okay...I understand you. While my yard is as green as I've ever seen it, while I was mowing Saturday PM I was shocked by how hard the ground had become after 3 straight sunny days. I think the quarter inch of rain yesterday did as much if not more for my soil than the 7+ inches on Wednesday.
