    Every week, in fact I think the upcoming winter is doomed...
  2. Dark Star
    At least below a recent 20 year average?

    Wish I had a whole house fan. Those things draw in cooler air in a heartbeat.

    -4 for the 20 year average, but maybe still above normal compared to the total historical average?

    Threw an extra blanket on the bed, just in case, but did not need it. Probably too much heat still trapped in the house...

    Wow!

    Looking for some rain total confirmations for Springfield NJ. NWS listed a report of around 4.5". Newark recorded a little over an inch, and I live about 2 miles from Springfield NJ, and I could not have gotten any more than Newark. I understand differences due to convection, but this is pretty extreme...

    Well, that's just swell...

    ripping out my crabgrass, but it grows back in 2 days...

    Not 100% sure, but the way it was worded, the State of Emergency was declared for the threat of severe weather, which it was obvious was already passed by the official declaration by 6 PM. State offices were closed at 1:30 PM. Almost sounds like when the cats away, the mice will play. So every fallen tree, routine river swelling is a responsibility of the federal government? Something doesn't sound legitimate...

    But I still don't understand, shouldn't you have to show proof of damages? Making a declaration means nothing.
  13. Dark Star
    Just because you declare a State of Emergency gets you money? What kind of scam is that?
  14. Dark Star
    what a joke!

    So a torndo watch until only 2 PM? I take it any atmospheric support conditions will have exited before any potential heavy downpours arrive closer to 4 PM?

    Hopefully they will be more gracious than their cross town rivals and let the fans know before 3 hours AFTER game time to cancel...

    I remember the tune, but not the artist? OK, I got it, great guitar picker, but never saw the movie...

    I guess there is a slight chance of a severe cell in NE NJ/NYC but it looks like the bulk of the system is even a little farther west. Maybe the only thing that worries me for the greater NYC metro is that strange "remnant" still down around Charleston...

    Is that what those dark patches are?

    My crabgrass is growing nicely...

    Heat does increase evaporation. Hopefully the overall distribution of precipitaton does not change much, but that remains to be seen. It would be great if areas that hardly see any rain receive a little extra help. but I don't think nature always has fairness in mind. What we don't want to see is areas dry up due to global warming...

    I didn't expect this, was only looking for light scattered showers today...

    We haven't had an overwhelming amount of mosquitoes yet, like we usually do. I planted 8, several died, and replanted more, only wound up with 2. I thought if I had about 6-8 plants on and surrounding my deck, it might deter the hellish beasts? Walmart had a large 3 wick citronella candle for less than $5, just in case, but its been too hot this summer to really test it out. Then again, who knows how much active ingredient is actually in the candle? Amazingly, the 5 years I had an RV, we could sit out at any campground, and our sites were usually water front. They must have sprayed like crazy...

    I have 2 lemon grass plants, I am armed and ready...

    Depends what forecast day you were looking at. I believe they revised the temperature upward yesterday (for today)?
