  1. Low of 47. We were out early tailgating yesterday and I was able to snap this beautiful pic of a fog covered Beaver Stadium with the sun rising in the background. What a perfect day.
  2. Feels great up here in State College! Up early for tailgating, night boys.
  3. Low of 56. Like others, I’ll be raising the deck on the mower today and trying to sneak one in before departing for Penn State. Perfect weekend on tap.
  4. Haha well you won't find me. I'll be at a tailgate somewhere off in Lot 12.
  5. Low of 59 and no new rain. I totaled 2.44" during this overcast stretch. My YTD stands at 34.04". I'm heading to Happy Valley this weekend for the UCLA game where it should be absolutely beautiful. Some interesting depictions on the models, with the cold shot next week and then the GFS wanting to go ham with a ULL the following week. Fun times ahead. Sorry to the O's and Braves fans out there.
  6. I wish. .4 miles, that's what I have to endure upon exiting the Amtrak station in Harrisburg.
  7. What a persistent blob that's just been hanging over the Harrisburg area. That was not a fun walk into work this morning.
  8. An absolute travesty that he’s not in the Hall. A hill I will die on. R.I.P. to the Hit King
  9. Funny you mention this, my wife recently hooked up an extra TV we have in our garage (primarily to get rid of me on occasion when Penn State or Green Bay play ha) and I was out there on Saturday watching some pigskin when sure enough, I hear a couple of crickets singing their incessant tunes.
  10. Low of 60 with .41" of rainfall, making for 2.38" over the last nine days. Count me among those who were surprised at how bountiful and overcast this stretch has been. One day we'll see the sun again, one day. Thursday maybe seems like the ticket. Man, the grass will go ballistic when that day comes.
  11. Low of 62 with .02” of rain. Penn State was a bit frustrating to watch but ultimately did what they had to do. Same problems persist in that the passing game just isn’t good enough to win at an elite level. Bama Georgia was absolutely drunk.
  12. I wonder if this is why my P&C forecast keeps looking infinitely worse ha
  13. Indeed, these warm overnight lows here towards the end of the month are going to ruin our BN month, probably end up about a half degree AN now. Low of 68 here with .37" of additional rainfall, up to 1.8" since Saturday. Anyone come across any cool clips from the hurricane? I haven't seen much. I guess landfalling across a very rural area didn't hurt?
  14. They've had their moments over the years but certainly aren't known as one of the powerhouse wrestling schools out that way.
  15. Low of 66 with .34” of fresh rainfall. Between temps and rain things are really greening up again.
  16. No. Left Bethel around lunch time locally on Sunday and had a bit of a layover in Anchorage. Overnight flight from Seattle to Detroit, where I got maybe two hours of crappy plane sleep. When all was said and done, got into Philly ~8am eastern. Then of course have to commute home from PHL. Always brutal traveling west to east. I'm pooped, but nothing compared to what you've been dealing with. Good luck with your recovery pal.
  17. Rainfall totals while I was gone..... Saturday night: .38" and wife says it was quite the storm, with power being lost for a bit. Monday: .68" of an all-day soaking kind of rain. Was not expecting that much but also hadn't been keeping up with any local forecasts. Glad to be back from Bethel, where they are rapidly losing daylight and the winter winds are starting to howl. Man, these little outpost towns scattered across the Alaskan frontier are something else. Just a completely different way of life. You really do feel like you're in another world. A lot of things that matter here just......don't there, and vice versa. Hard to explain, but as my buddy who lives there always says, "Bethel isn't a real place" ha. Feeling quite jet-lagged as I sit here in Harrisburg. Onward.
