Shame that worked out that way...would have been better if phils win game 4 and ari game 5 so you could have seen a victory while our friends here still get their 3-2 lead

Yeah, it was a bummer it played out the way it did.

Why did I think you were older than that?

Open the roof, you cowards.

Yeah, I'm just middle age...in my own mind anyway. And yes, I was hoping the roof would be open.

Ok. I'm here. Hope it's an exciting game!

Finished with .09" of rain. Much more towards Lancaster.

Good news Phillies fans! Kimbrel shouldn't be available tonight.

We are!

They talked about his stats last night on TV. As good as he is/was, his career Chase Field numbers suck. For some reason he can't seem to get the job done out here in Phoenix.

That sounds exciting. 

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I may post a pic or two. I'm up in the nosebleed seats, but it doesn't matter. There's nothing like postseason baseball!

You just stole one from many of the locals.

I know....

But now my game 5 that I bought a ticket for is going to be played, so I'm going to an NLCS game on Saturday.

42 was my low. Color I don't think will be as good as last year, but we'll know in a week or so. 

If color is based upon moisture, then the coal region should be on fire in a week or two. Tamaqua sits at 46.60" right now. There's been no shortage of rain in NEPA over the past few months.

So I just found out that our FOX10 meteorogist, Krystal Ortiz, came to Phoenix from NBC10 in Philadelphia. Who remembers her? And I'm curious. I think she's pretty good, but how did she do when she was at NBC10?

Send some of that heat this way. I'm sure it will be a big hhhh hit on this forum.

I could, but then if/when I return, I would GET a big hit from this forum...like a left hook to the jaw. 

lol

Gotta (God I) love it!!!

I know, I know...not supposed to do this, but I didn't look at the sun with my eyes directly. I was able to get a refractive image of the eclipse at peak (80%) coverage here in Phoenix.

I remember a few times getting like 5-6" in 3 hours before the dreaded pingers and 10 hours of freezing drizzle

Ugh... I remember that all too well. It'd be puking snow, everything so white and peaceful, and cool looking, and then...the mess would begin.

I have my tix for next Saturday's game 5 here in Phoenix. I think this is going to be a good series, as both teams are smoking hot right now.

I used to help my buddy do pig roasts for weddings on Saturdays because wedding money has always been insanely stupid good. The amount of fall days I've worked outside with that kind of weather is hilarious

I believe it.

0.04" for 20 hours, drizzle for an additional 10, socked in clouds for additional 6. We see sun for 20 mins at sunset Sunday night.

I don't have enough fingers and toes to count the times that scenario occurred in my lifetime.

Rain all weekend, then clearing at sunset on Sunday, then a glorious, cloud free Monday.

You're not alone - I was a freshman in high school in Millersville (PA) and was sitting in math class when the teacher came out of nowhere and slapped his hand down on my desk. Scared the living shit out of me. He said "Michael, stop staring out the window...haven't you seen snow before?"

Jerk move by him. 

Similar situation, but the teacher said I'd never make money staring out a window. Little did he know I'd be a truck driver and that I indeed would make my money staring out a window...lol

You look younger with the full beard! 

Thanks! The way I feel is that while I may be getting older, I don't have to look like it...and even more so, not feel like it.

Check it out guys. I put the Jeep to the test last weekend...

33.8 was the Tamaqua low this morning.

I'm not huge for college towns since living in state college so long, but I love outdoors and Flagstaff has the right mix

That it does.

Flagstaff might be the only place I could live out there and be happy. Elevation helps

Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
 

It's what makes driving on I-17 so challenging in the winter. You can go from wet to white in less than a mile when you hit the right elevation. Then, it can happen multiple times depending on what elevation the snow level actually is.

Has it snowed in the mountains north of Flagstaff yet?

They had snow showers above 10,000ft on Humphrey's Peak near Flagstaff this past weekend.

 The seasons, they are a-changin'. 

Yup, and if I weren't in AZ I'd be starting into pre-depression mood.

Tamaqua nooners...

59 degrees here in AZ this morning...
