  1. Little better here with .39" as of 7:30 this morning. Doesn't look like much additional unless like you said a heavier downpour delivers. Disappointing and not going to help the dryness to any degree. Temperatures look to be on the the cooler or at least seasonable side as we open May.
  2. Hoping for a 1" soaking. Will take .5" but will be disappointed with anything less. Soil is dry.
  3. Sorry no. I tend to not spend much time on things I have no control over. As it is I do my part by living in NJ. I am forced to carry bags into a grocery store and drink from paper straws. That should help things a bit.
  4. Yeah. Then cow farts and industry came along and changed everything. This area was once covered in a glacier and it melted and receded. No humans or industry then. To each his own I guess. No denying planet has warmed over the past 20-30 years but not human induced. Time will tell but most of us here today could welll be on the other side of the grass by then.
  5. Sorry. You are delusional if you think for one second humans are going to stop the climate from changing no matter what we do. Trying to block out the sun, really?
  6. 100% agree. The planet is what about 4.5 billion years old, give or take a half billion. Just when exactly was the climate not changing? To think we're going to change anything by driving around in plug in cars and silencing cow farts is absurd. Experiments to dim sunlight? Yeah, that will end well.
  7. Had 30.9" at my location. Except for 3 events of between 5 and 6" I could have done without the remaining nuisance 1-2" events. Nevertheless a total is a total and compared so some totals on this map even into the Catskills, mid Hudson Valley and NW CT I did well.
  8. Cold west. Warm east. I'll take it ! Pattern looks dry for a while though.
  9. Yeah, most guidance is rather dry for the next week to 10 days. Latest Drought Monitor shows improvement but still not ideal. We could go backwards with a renewed dry spell. Especially if weather turns unseasonably warm. Dryness mostly would affect ag interests initially as we head into the growing season. For now through all is ok. Just have to watch for any long stretches of dryness.
  10. Have to disagree. It sucks. It was mostly cloudy, windy and temperatures in my part of NJ only got into the m/u 40's. This weather blows chunks for mid April. The constant wind is beyond tiresome.
  11. I boarded that train a month ago! At least the warm part of it. I'm not rooting for endless dryness.
  12. Temperature 38 with a gusty wind at times. Lots of clouds associated with cyclonic rot. Stinks!
  13. Another windy day. What else is new. Really gusty here today.
  14. Last vestiges of ice still hanging on over the far east end of Lake Erie.
  15. Nice out today. Especially in the sun. Bit of a gusty breeze at times but nice day.
  16. Event total here was 1.55" with 1.5" snow. We've made good drought progress over the last several weeks. Most of the area should be in the abnormally dry or D0 classification on the Drought Monitor that comes out this coming Thursday.
  17. Stuck in the low 30's all day here with mist, drizzle and some sleet mixed in at times. Everything pretty much melted on paved surfaces. Still some depth 1/2" - 3/4" on the colder surfaces. Was just outside and things a bit slick under foot with temperatures hanging around 33 degrees currently. Might be some black ice issues overnight if temperature drops to or just below freezing.
  18. Finished with 1.5" here. Pavement and concrete surfaces accumulated as well but with just under an inch of accumulations on those surfaces. Roads did get snow covered. Temperature dropped to 31 under a heavier band. No plows and no SALT so far thank goodness.
  19. 32.5 with accumulating snow. Mainly colder surfaces. Pavement and concrete sparse coating.
  20. and from what I've read in high winds you can feel the sway.....no thanks.
  21. Currently 36.4 degrees with light rain and drizzle. Just nasty. Sucks. I'm ok with the rain but the chilly temperatures need to go
  22. Horrible. I'm hearing 6 deaths including some children.
  23. Love visible satellite pictures.
  24. 12:45 p.m. on April 9th - wall to wall sunshine and the temperature is just 39 degrees. Pretty impressive.
