SI Mailman

Topped out at 99, down to 95 now after Mother Nature turned on the fan


.

98/81

I still have 21 blocks left of my route to deliver. If you see a naked mailman, offer him a cold one

Just checked the home station and we made it to 91 at 6:20 for probably the latest high possible

Made it to 90 for the second day in a row. Car was reading 94 as I was driving through Philly to the Mets game

Looks like I’ll finally be getting in on the action with that cell moving NE through central jersey

What is this yellow thing in the sky, and why is the sky blue?

Nah, if you did that you'd be done readng in 30 seconds for a full day's posts. What's the point of restricting posting during what is a weather forum's traditional "low season?"

I was hot last night. Mowed the lawn this morning in shorts and flip flops, lol

Went to work in just shorts and my short sleeve shirt, no jacket.  Was regretting the decision until about noon, then happy I made that choice.  

Especially as a man. Nothing worse then wearing a suit/tux in the heat. 
Congrats. Looking good for Sunday!

Made it up to 87 in the last hour

I did it last year, the forecast was pretty bleak, but it didn't turn out so bad for people in the earlier waves. They finished basically rain free. Just cloudy and cool. Maybe some brief drizzle. When the rain did come it poured though. Still got soaked on the way home. For those who started later it must of sucked toward the end.

I did it every year for a 6 year stretch from '07 to '12.  '09 was the worst, I believe we actually had a coastal storm the day of the tour.  I vowed to never ride it again if the forecast called for rain.  

Made the right call to work in shorts today

Feels like the temperature just dropped 15 degrees

I’ve been carrying mail since before the 2013-14 winter. I break out different layers depending on how cold it is. I’ve only had to break out my extreme cold sub 20 degrees outfit once this winter, but I feel like I’ve worn my 20s and 30s gear every single day these last 2 months with little to no break

Moderate snow here on Staten Island

First flakes Staten Island by the outerbridge crossing

southern part of Staten Island and I'm getting sleet.

One last weenie band

About 3 inches here on Staten Island

2 inches measured here by me on Staten Island

ripping here on Staten Island as well.  

It’s also different since we were tracking a HECS 9 years ago this week. Haven’t had any monsters worth tracking in these parts for quite some time now

yeah, not a flake on the NAM, but it's also in the long range.  

I'm betting we nickle and dime our way to a 15 inch snowfall total at the end of the season in Central Park when all is said and done.  

Icon bombs it out and exits stage right at Virginia.
