I'm going to hold you to that.

At the moment it looks really good out there. Have fun dude!

You da man

Every year the first t-storm of the year gets earlier. The last few years it was February now it's early January. In years past I don't remember any in Dec but November for sure. Welcome to the new NC.

Thunder, lightning and heavy rain

After a rather rough start there's nowhere to go but up, I'm up to the challenge so now the weather needs to cooperate so we don't all have to go to a gym. We're going to dry out this year, it's going to happen. I have confidence

I'm just about 8 miles from where that Shrub Oak ob was taken and I got 2.6".

Well, shoot. My wife and I have been debating whether or not to commit to a 2 day outdoor event (in the hills of Dutchess County) on 11/3-4 to kick off holiday sales for her new small business. I'm not comfortable pre-paying for a spot that may be cold and wet if this end of the month scenario plays out to the cold side which appears to be the consensus at the moment.

Take that back No more, just no more...

Halloween will get snowed out again for the third time this decade.

103"? WOW.

Yeah there can be significant differences in max depth and regular clearing amounts. Like was mentioned in that writeup, 30" was out of line.

Hahaha

That 65 degree Xmas Eve a few years ago was wonderful. Mountain biking in shorts and t-shirts that night was something I'll never forget. There was a whole bunch of riders out hootin' and hollerin' and just having a big old time like it was mid summer. I wouldn't mind another one like that

Very few of the old clubs were as successful much later than that either. At that point small shows had transitioned to theaters rather than clubs but there was still a strong bar band scene and very occasionally the bigger bands would show up for those bar shows.

I remember that well, my neighbor didn't stop raving about it for days afterwards. That was a year or so before I started going there because they didn't like my fake id I remember that too. I also remember some of the incredible shows the club in Island Park used to get when we first moved to O'side in 1970. Most of the really great stuff, The Doors, Grateful Dead was slightly before that but until ~73 that place killed it. She used to live in Rockville Center right at the edge of the RVC Country Club. Nice house

Oh man I saw some great stuff at Malibu. We used to walk in from the beach side and half the time never got asked for money. The Ramones and so many others... DSO is great. I used to see Jeff in small bars around LI over 30 years ago. 90.7 is still good but without Pete and Vin it's just not the same place it used to be.

I miss so many of the old dj's. Vin Scelsa recently retired and Pete Fornatale died of an aneurysm so they're both gone from the air but there are a couple still working from the late 60's and 70's on Sirius/XM. Cousin Brucie is still on Wednesday and Saturday nights on channel 6, the 60's channel, and I listen to Carol Miller, Meg Griffin, Dusty Street and Jim Ladd regularly and I think that Dennis Elsas is still on the air here in NY. There's really nobody like Scottso though.

I'd think that most of Great South Bay is too shallow for critters that big especially at low tide. Haha I bet it's sketchy being in a small boat and these things that are triple your size are around.

A bird hit by a car in NY? I'm so surprised I know that I've seen some great birds along the barrier beaches and on Long Island golf courses over the years.

That's fantastic. I can't imagine it ever having been like that back when I was growing up down there.

That's really cool.

I took it as a statement that the Arctic Ocean at Barrow isn't frozen yet. Looks like the sea ice is getting a slow start (again) this year.

Welcome to winter
