    Heaviest returns are well north and west of the Beltway. That's the issue...again. Now...I really don't care, to be honest. It would pad stats - that's it - because it's going to get washed away anyway.

    Been getting rimed flakes for about 30 minutes - maybe a little more - in Burke. Cul-de-sac was covered immediately. Nice scene before the rain.

    Got the tomatoes into their cells yesterday. Jalapeños are taking true sweet time, but I’m not surprised since the heat may will only bump the temp by about 15 degrees from the 56 ambient down there. They may well not germinate for a couple more weeks. @Kay...I use Territorial. Always liked their options and customer service. I used to order my tomato and pepper plants from Lazy Ox Farm (they’re fantastic), but I wanted to give starting everything from seed a whirl this year!

    Don’t be angry that you’re uncultured and afraid of the big time.

    All well and good, but taking the RGEM at its word is a recipe for disappointment.

    Exactly! ‘96 was crazy, but it seems like virtually every storm growing up was marginal, and that the Lehigh Valley got crushed all the freaking time! My sledding hill was one of the off-ramps of the Betsy Ross Bridge. What an absolute blast that was, regardless of whether we flipped to mix/rain or not! I went to CCHS, but knew plenty of folks from Voorhees!

    Best friend found a place that sells bottles of Old Weller Antique for a relatively good price, so I grabbed a bottle. Goddamn if that ain’t a smooth-ass bourbon...

    Out of curiosity...did you go to high school in SJ? You’re a few years younger than me, I think, but I’m always curious about folks from the homestead!

    We used to despise the term “...more north and west” when I was a kid. We flipped to mix a *lot* and always felt that we were on the outside looking in.

    Camden County - just across the river from Philly

    You took my post a little too seriously. Like you, I grew up in South Jersey, so I’m very well aware of the climo up there.
  12. mattie g
    Agreed. I’m from South Jersey and will identify as such for the rest of my life. I always compare the neighborhood I now live in with a few towns hear where I grew up - the similarities are obvious. Suburbs are often very similar in the nearer-coastal regions between VA and NY, with the dates of build playing an especially important role in how they look and feel.

    Personal opinion...gotta be PA/NJ and north to be in the Northeast. Northern Delaware works, too. Not a perfect match, and maybe it’s more cultural than meteorological Northeastern-ness up there.

    We drink Jacob’s Krönung.

    Too bad we’re not in the Northeast...

    Pounded freezing mist all night, so the sleet was concrete this morning. Car was completely coated and our side streets were a pretty decent mess. Secondary roads were fine.

    Not sure why this post is in this thread, but... How many days did DCA have a temp below 5 degrees in the 27 years prior to 1994?
  18. mattie g
    I just didn’t bother shoveling.

    Ooh...that was a former avatar, but which one?

    I only said we should talk. Geez.

    Crushing icy glaze!

    I hear ya - I do exactly the same. I don’t really look a ton like Dylan, but I’d like to think that being viewed as a young version of him is a good thing!
  23. mattie g
    Pretty much everything they do is awesome. Unreal that they have a location in DC now!
  24. mattie g
    Absolutely POUNDING freezing mist!

    Athlete and frat guy. Let’s talk.
