Heat kicked on this morning…47F

Just has hail in westechester with that small line that went thru

Shea was the worst. 3/4 built with opening to water. awful on a cold wet day

Constant 40-50 with rain several days a week from october thru may. This sucks. And is worth moving for. Being Maritime like Seattle or London

I was going to go, but I can’t stand this weather anymore. Maybe tomorrow

Kids baseball game. 47F drizzle stiff wind. This pattern ruined our whole winter. Now its ruining spring

Andrew was small. The storms today are wider with more damage potential. Frankly, same threat in NYC. Florida is a little overheated right now and it cant continue like that. What was once cheap isnt as cheap anymore because of demand. Hence GA and the Carolinas. The SE will continue to grow at the expense of places like NY as they have the right combo of low taxes, low cost of living, newer housing stock, and better weather plus a ton of business opportunities. If you can afford to live in Westchester or on the north shore of Long Island and you work from home, you could have a nice suburban life here for an exorbitant cost. If you live in Queens like I used to, you are giving half your pay check to a landlord to live in an apartment that your grandparents grew up in and everything around you is old, broken, small and/ or dirty. Everything from food shopping to the Post Office to the gym is subpar to every other part of America. That is why SE wins and few if any move back

Love Lake Placid! Enjoy

and you need to be careful. There will be a lot of car accidents. There will be a lot of distracted people a lot of stolen items and pickpockets. If you’re in a crowded area today between three and four, keep your head out of your ass and keep your wits about you

https://whiteface.com/mountain/conditions/ Whiteface has 68 trails and an eclipse party. Even the Slides are open! Just saying

How often does that happen though? JFK is in a south operation almost all summer

Guess you dont sit on everyday with one lane closed from 9-3

Stop. Some of them should fall down and do the world a favor. I nominate the Whitestone as a sacrifice to the gods

Wow!! Felt that in Hastings!!

It is going to turn like a light switch. Enjoy the BN while it lasts (even if its shitty out)

They dont care. You showed up and spent money while waiting in the cold rain. It happens all the time throughout the league

Ill invert that. many of the smaller East Coast ski areas have 100% snowmaking to see them through warm periods. Out west they are totally dependent on natural snow. Too big and not enough water for snowmaking. In the warm winter world of the future, you will see skiing at small resorts on the East Coast where lower Western resorts shut down. Put in the books…

If you are younger than 40, you will watch baseball die off like horseracing did 50 years ago. In both cases, the milking of fans and disinterest of younger generations will play a role.

my house doesn’t flood, but I have to tell you I’m getting a trickles in now every time we have one of these big storms. This is too much already. We’re having this like every two weeks. i’m on the side of the hill at about 200 feet. I’m glad I’m not at the bottom.

you need a good winter leading into that though. And they haven’t had it. It’s tough to have a good late March and April when late February and early March was a stinker up there. Running like +10 and amongst warmest winter ever for them. At best you can say these ski resorts in the Catskills in the Adirondacks are getting lucky toward the latter half of March and it should hold a “normal” season for them despite extreme warmth and well BN snow (especially true in the North Country) like the Adirondacks are all snow today. But Bellleayre has the upper mountain closed because they have ice at the top and rain at the bottom

I didn’t believe they would make it at the beginning of March… But Belleayre made it and they are thriving on 3/22 with snow on way tonight. March is funny like that!

27F. Stopped that growing season in its place for a bit!

2005 had some accumulation right?

New York City second week of March. Beyond that it’s spring snow when you’re lucky. wet slop Until then you can have a wintery feel this year we didn’t even have a winter feel side for a week or two in the middle of February and January. I don’t know what these people are talking about winter in March. Ridiculous.

Isnt that wonderful…This fucking winter
