  1. "South Texas Police Department Issues Public Health Announcement After COVID-Stricken Migrants Seen ‘Coughing, Sneezing’ At Whataburger – CBS Dallas / Fort Worth" https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2021/07/28/la-joya-covid-migrants-whataburger/.....This is today
  2. You can blame them for introducing thousands of infected people coming across the border into unsuspecting communities....Mostly in the South.
  3. You obviously are clueless regarding the current economy where millions of people remain on extended unemployment and supplement despite help wanted signs everywhere. .As for the vast majority of my neighbors back in Warwick the 20 yrs when I was a cop, I don't seem to remember very many of them on the road with me to Chinatown at 4am or on the way home with me at 10 or 11 pm after OT or second jobs to keep my wife home to raise kids. Most of them worked 9-5 office jobs. I was no privileged. I worked a paper route and odd jobs after school since age 12. Bought my own car at 17 and insurance. Parents fed and clothed me and threw me 500 bucks for my wedding. I took a damn civil service test that any "unprivileged" person of any color could've taken and worked my ass off. To say that I'm clueless that I contest that the majority of people don't work an average 12 a day an drive a 3 hrs commuting to and from lower Manhattan is even more asinine than your assertion that I'm privileged..As for your heat/cold point you obviously have not been in a NYC public housing apt with no AC in an extended heatwave . Families sometimes with mattresses on the floor 8 people crammed in a 2BR suffering to try and sleep drenched in their underwear at night from 90+ degree temps inside all night long. The elderly there can stay inside in winter when it's cold or icy. They can't escape the deadly heat in their apartments. I have seen this first hand
  4. 98/77 is not warm. It is horrendously uncomfortable to anyone having to do any physical task outside and can be deadly to elderly without AC. If you think I am privileged to have a home with a backyard pool, you should've worked the 50- 60 hr work weeks I did for 20 yrs as a cop along with off duty moonlighting.. Comparing a nice home obtained from ass busting hard work that most people won't do to Uber wealth inherited (Gulfstream) is asinine and petty jealousy.
  5. Thing about people who "love" days like yesterday. Generally they are not the one responsible for paying the high electric bills. They are not outside cutting their large lawns and other constant outside home maintaining which is brutal in this weather. There is also zero regard for poor and elderly who are literally suffering living in non air conditioned apartments with no cross ventilation and 90 degrees inside 24 hrs a day .Hell, my 33k gallon pool is 86 degrees due to this swamp azz crap . What good is it to swim in bath water?. There are no redeeming qualities to this extreme heat compared to the danger it poses to rational adults.
  6. They obviously don't pay 400 dollar a month electric bills to central AC their 2500 Sq ft homes. I rooted for 100 degree days on Staten Island growing up in the 1970's. House was always cool and the pool was in the yard. Never crossed my mind about my parents electric bill
  7. You didn't need to go all the way to the Catskills. Up the Thruway to Harriman and you were in it
  8. For Brooklyn maybe. To say there is no threat after the 1st week in March for the whole forum is very presumptive.
  9. There was a shadow area on many of the models that ran thru the middle of the County N/S. I noticed it on radar earlier when it was dumping over here in Cornwall. It showed up as a persistent narrow light blue stripe. I saw it for quite awhile and thought it might translate East but it really was focused out there. Good job by the clown maps showing this since yesterday.
  10. I live just South of Newburgh in the middle of that band. There is not a flake yet here let alone 30 miles to my East in Danbury.
  11. Lol... Yonkers is as indicative of HV weather as Van Courtland Park. Unlike down there, with dews in the high teens/low 20s and a continued light cold drain down the actual Hudson River Valley ice is going to be a real problem up here despite what the city folk believe.
  12. It will be because it's a weak storm and no big pressure gradient to flush it out. We will keep the light cold drain until most of the storm is done
  13. North of Storm King Mtn will lock in the LL cold considerably longer that down by the RT 17 Harriman-Middletown corridor in this situation. The big ice will be in NW Orange County and then from Cornwall North to Marlboro. We drop dews tonight with the light northerly drain down the river
  14. It's called climo. We jackpot up here in Orange Cty because we average 50+ inches of snow a year with elevation. Pounding CNJ one storm isn't any sort of redistribution. It is a by chance large storm that basically makes up most of their seasonal total. You are not going to average more than the NW high ground for more than 1 winter of suppression. One can argue NYC has had an unusually snowy decade and is due for several snowless winters to make up for the averages recent inflation
