Yay power's back on!
I went almost 4 days after the Feb 2010 Snowicane. The storm was great, the lack of power, water, and heat got old real fast.

Lots of sirens and trees down. Lost power but otherwise ok here
I know many like extreme weather and some even root for damage but I wonder if those have ever had damage? It’s not fun and the damage I had years ago wasn’t too bad but still not fun. A close colleague of mine was in the East Coldenham Elementary School disaster, she was in the cafeteria and lost classmates. That experience has had significant long term effects on her mental health. .66” here this morning, I thankfully missed the worst, 63/61.

No exaggeration best storm I've ever experienced. Had to be 70-80 mph gusts. Total white out. Hail. My video conked out
Well it sounds like you're safe with no damage? I hope so.

Looks like in the cross hairs right now. Hope it weakens. How'd you make out?
I split the uprights thankfully, it was worse just to my north and south. No hail or crazy winds here but serious downpours, .63 with gentle rain falling now, down to 63/61

The storm that has been producing upstate all day looks to be a close call here

.88 with some tremendous booms of thunder earlier and thankfully no wind, even got in a rainbow.

Looks like it as of now. This stretch is the classic summer weather we need. Warm and sunny with some storm chances mixed in. The fourth looks particularly incredible.
That's a pretty crazy stat of yours though, imagine most of March, and then all of April, May, and June, having precipitation on the weekend.
Agreed on he Fourth, looks fantastic. As for my streak, not every weekend was a washout obviously but a number were. This past Saturday was beautiful but then I picked up .01 in the evening.
-
The last weekend without any sort of precipitation IMBY was 3/7-3/9/25…could the first weekend in July finally end that streak?
-
The showers moving through produced .01, so the wet weekend streak continues...
-
It feels weird to sit outside on a Saturday crushing beers without rain

I read somewhere that .001% of the Earth's rise in temperature over the last 9 years is directly attributable to server electricity demands, due to the frequency of LibertyBell's posts. Half that is due solely to the giant image and poem in his footer that have been in place only the past year or so.
Just kidding, I honestly enjoy the posts (the ducks I'm a little tired of tho.)
It's not his posts, and thankfully he gets it when I call him on stuff and bust his chops. I just wish whatever browser he uses allowed use of the multi-quote option.

1953, 1966 and 1983 analogs on tap, let's see which one comes the closest to matching this historic summer !!!!
For winter, everyone should want a 1966 match.....
Are you on a mission to get to 100,000 posts….by this Labor Day?

No urban heat island in 1948.....
Yeah in 1948, concrete and asphalt wasn’t invented yet and NYC was nothing but rounded up prairie schooner wagons and teepees sprawled across all the open fields…c’mon man!

Is there any way to ignore when someone quotes an ignored poster? Even the normal ignore isn't enough...
Maybe that will get fixed when they fix this place so more than just flip phone users can easily post photos. 80 at 9pm up here actually feels cool.

100°... Only other time to hit that number at my station was way back in 1988.
Highest I ever recorded is 99 multiple times, up to 96 IMBY.

Up to 93 here, three degrees higher than yesterday at this time.

It might actually mean you can heat up more quickly if the dew point is lower.
Yes, drier air warms and cools more quickly than humid air. As of now, the dew is the same as yesterday at the same time and I am one degree cooler, so it didn't really matter. 84/77 now.

Wow I got down to 75 degrees. I never expected that. I'm cooler this morning than yesterday morning.
Same up here, low of 74 yesterday and 69 this morning. Doubt it matters much though.

Low of 69 here this morning, 5 degrees cooler than yesterday, I don't think that will matter much for the high later though.

Yeah the problem here is I'm upstairs. I just checked downstairs and it's 76 down there.
Since my units are upstairs, its actually cooler up there than downstairs.

Nice. After that outage I got a generator in March of 2010.
