As usual, our politicians got it backwards.

 

Make STANDARD time permanent, cuz, . . . well, . . . it's "standard".

Nah, 4:30 AM sunrises would be useless in May and June, I'd rather have it be light out past 8 PM.  

As a professional letter carrier who works outdoors, having that extra hour of daylight in the evening in November and December would be very helpful during our peak season.  The only draw back is that I'd be out delivering packages before sunrise as well.  

definitely snow mixed in here at the base of the outerbridge

crazy winds, just recorded a 54 mph gust.  

I'm delivering in shorts for the first time in 2022. No regrets

The measurement for Boxing Day at ISP was correct. The best  banding with that one was closer to NE NJ. Much less out across Suffolk.

mood flakes here on Staten Island

8 inches in Great Kills Staten Island.

I don't mind if the mood flakes stay for the next 6 hours as I deliver in this

dusting here on Staten Island

That ran at 9 PM. 6z NAM runs in less than a half hour

We gonna get NAM'd?  We're within 48 hours where the NAM is deadly.

Maybe this is the storm the Euro regains its crown.  

Can't wait for the full NAM 18z and 0z runs

Can't wait to get fully NAM'd on tomorrow's 12z run.

Damn, thought we'd have to wait til Wednesday night to be NAM'd, but Euro says why wait.  

30 inches in Boxing Day. I'll take that again please

Oh Canada

CMC delivers the goods.!

The Euro has joined the party as well.  Benchmark track.  

Well at least the winter won't be a shutout now.

Euro has the low right over Montauk at Hr 120.  Decent hit for north and west

UKie in the sweet spot for Friday.  

0z Euro takes Friday's storm right over JFK.

It's only 45 degrees warmer than it was at this time 4 years ago.
