  1. Thank you. Was just mentioning this to the missus. I hate wet, cold, muddy Marches and Aprils. Just give me mild and gentle rain, and let my grass grow and for my kids to play baseball.
  2. That’s more often than not when we get them, regardless of the year. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .
  3. C’est la vie, said the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell.
  4. My older son was so happy to wear his Barkley jersey that he got for Christmas after the Giants went 6-10. Just a terrible division in a weird year.
  5. Is this one missing NNJ (MMU)? My Christmas present was a new EGO snowblower, so I’m wondering whether or not to move it out of the shed during the nice weather today. .
  6. Of course, but now I realize that many people on here don’t. I feel old. .
  7. Great storm; an underrated one. 18” in six hours in Morris County. One of my favorites. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  8. Ah, my formative winters. Imagine being a kid and those are your elementary school winters. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes. Nothing is ever a 1-for-1 duplicate. .
  10. For the uninformed (like myself), what does this all mean? Speak to me like I’m five. .
  11. We had that storm out here... IIRC, it was snow followed by a glaze of ice, and then it melted quickly, as it is wont to do around these parts. .
  12. One thing I’ve learned from my many, many years of watching winter weather is this... you can’t trust the long range details in the models, just the framework. e.g., it indicates we’re going to walk into a room soon and that room will be a kitchen, so you assume there will be a refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave, but we have no idea what brand and wattage they’ll be until we’re in the next room over and can peer in through the doorway. tl;dr, it sounds like we’re going to have a storm in about ten days, and we’re not sure yet what it will bring, but something is there and it’s going to change a lot in the coming days. .
  13. I’ve been looking for 1994 in all the wrong places. .
  14. They said there'll be snow at Christmas They said there'll be peace on Earth But instead it just kept on raining Merry Christmas! .
  15. Thank goodness. A nice, slow, reasonable melt the next few days can only help with whatever rain we get Thursday.
  16. I think I mentioned this earlier, but please please please clear out storm drains and downspouts. I spent a small part of the weekend trying to explain gravity and the physics of hydrology to my neighbors. Maybe putting it like that makes me sounds like an assclown. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  18. Just make sure all outside drains are clear and ready to receive water. .
  19. I would not want to be anywhere near a riverbank on Christmas Eve and Day. Makes sure your storm drains are clear. .
