  1. Evening Rich, putting the old Rand McNally to good use I see
  2. So now you can read more threads. It’s still reading.
  3. Totally understand that. It’s the same damn discussion that comes up over and over as to what the coast is, what the metro is, blah, blah blah. It’s clear that not only are many on here not geographers, which is understandable, but some it appear can’t even interpret a map.
  4. Why can’t people take the “what’s your definition of” banter here?!
  5. Looks to be a booming pothole season so we have that going for us...
  6. Same thing over here Walt, nothing on radar but it’s falling, 22F
  7. Here’s the gage at Gardiner that Upton referred to, you can definitely see that and ice jam cleared out near there
  8. The Wallkill is talking today as the ice cracks, moans, and groans and it’s definitely up. The gage that Upton refers to is further downstream, concern about ice jams around here for sure
  9. Good morning Rich, nice find. I guess it was the spring sun angle that melted enough of the ice on the cars that I could finally open the doors again.
  10. Staying parked at 32 and not going below for those five hours here was huge. I just went back and checked, I picked up .34” while at 32 degrees. Now some of that may have accreted on trees, I’m not sure, but if it all had…Would’ve been a game changer around here.
  11. Finally got the mass of ice in the Stratus to fully melt so here are the measurements: 1.68” in the Davis and 2.10” in the Stratus. In looking at the Davis data based on when I went below freezing it recorded .08 before freezing up so it looks like .50” in freezing rain QPF here but there was that .3” in snow here at the end so some of that .50” includes that too. *edited the above as I realized that I had .10 in the Davis today which was clearly some melting of the ice from yesterday. MGJ reported .48” in ZR so my calculations seem reasonable.
  12. Matches the temperature in the cockles of his heart?
  13. The euro crushes us next Sunday into Monday…what could go wrong?
  14. @rclab Good day Rich, how’d did the “postage stamp” make out?
  15. That sucks about the shade. The small hill and turn in my driveway faces north but with the sun making it’s return towards the north the sand I throw down draws in some heat now. So it’s a win win as it provides traction and some melting. Luckily we should pop above freezing on Monday.
  16. Yeah…I want no part of that. I remember following that online as these boards were in their infancy. As I recall, much of that was freezing drizzle which really allows for accretion. That might be mentioned in that link, I’ll have to read up on it again.
  17. I’ve issued a Flying Ice Warning, you’ve been warned if you’re outside near any trees...
  18. Agreed. I saw video that Central Hudson posted yesterday of trees falling into the lines as they were on scene trying to repair them. Not a good situation.
  19. Go a little north of Oswego itself.
  20. 21 degrees but thanks to the sun and some coaxing I got both cars open and warming up
  21. Agreed. I fortunately had no issues here but a mere 30 miles north is a disaster area centered on the City of Kingston in Ulster County where they had .6 of radial ice. Central Hudson is the power company up there and has 90,990 customers with 44,044 customers without power right now. 680 crews out there this weekend trying to restore power.
  22. A State of Emergency was declared in Ulster earlier today. Not good, half the county had lost power at one point.
  23. Good evening Sir! My grandson is 2 and with the way kids grow up nowadays he’ll probably be posting on here in about three years or so, I’m confident you’ll be around.
