Yep, proposed at the Conference House Park on Staten Island while the thermometer still read 100. Was driving to a celebratory dinner as the storms were moving in.
My first date with my girlfriend was 2/3/23. It was in the single digits when we met. I plan on proposing to her on Friday when it's triple digits. I think that's good symmetry.
They'll learn real fast once they get their way. Personally I wouldn't mind permanent DST with my job. I'll get rid of all the packages before sunrise in December and then have plenty of time to deliver the mail before it gets dark.
This storm will put everyone who wasn't already above average there for the season, including Central Park, provided they don't wait til next Friday to measure.
