    OT/Randy’s Hood got nuked…probably for the better. I have no clue how people could post in there every day and not get sick of it. I browsed and posted a little during election season and that was enough for me.

    Many were deranged misfits...

    The Birds certainly screwed themselves over by winning the Super Bowl, now they pick last in the draft. Dumb asses!! :P

    Not only that, difficult schedule and forget about the 1:00 p.m. games. Will be late prime time games, Sunday night games, Thursday night games, Monday night games and maybe Thanksgiving or Christmas. And Super bowl winners usually lose an offensive or defensive coordinator which they did. Hurts has had a new offensive coordinator just about every year. As far as the draft they have seven picks in the first five rounds...

    When they figure our avg seasonal snowfall, I wonder how that is determined? Is that a rolling 100-year avg? Does that avg get recalculated on a decadal basis? Would be genuinely interested in knowing.

    Not sure of 100 years but it's got to be at least several decades. Maybe a Met can chime in...

    Right now 12.83” here in Media this is more than last three years combined largest snowfall here this year 3.4”

    If the trend continues this year you'll still be below your average yearly snowfall once again. Some below average yearly snowfall sucks more than others but bottom line you'll be below average again.

    My grade is a C-

    Green bursts in the sky attm. Transformers blowing??

    I didn't go that low because we did have cold, wind, snow on the ground for much of the winter in one place or another and that crazy ass New Year's Eve  night system with wind rain and hail. As far as snow, F-. I wouldn't even call most of the events we saw this year nickel and dime. More like penny events with totals we measured in the tenths... pathetic.

    Going to steal a page from Ji...but this was a pretty disappointing winter. We finally look to have a D-J-,F all BN temps yet I am only halfway to avg seasonal snowfall. I realize the clime is different than 25 years ago, but seriously, what do we need to do anymore? You would think with seasonal BN temps we would have cashed in on at least 1 good storm. Just tired of being nickel and dimed. Maybe it was an avg Nina winter. But seriously. The last 9 winters have been depressing asf. And we've had a few Ninos during that period, and we still can't cash in. So I'm not sure what it takes anymore at this point just to reach avg snowfall around here. End rant...see you for 0z runs :guitar:

    Myself, as of today:

    Grade: C

    *Bunch of sirens just now starting to crank..

    Montco 911 log lighting up with “electrical fires”. 

    I'm in the McDonald's parking lot facing Welsh road and looking down. Looks like all traffic lights are down going down Welsh rd. Oddly enough  McDonald's lights still on, the drive through 6 deep ordering burgers.

    Looks like my high for the day was 50F. Lots of junk and stuff fell from my trees as that initial gust front came through.

    The Welsh road traffic light in front of redner's is out. People look perplexed on what to do... Cops just arrived waving their hands back and forth. Drivers still confused and perplexed... Now a fire engine coming down Welsh road Hocking the shit out of his horns..

    Here it comes. Dumping rain and wind just picked up. 

    My backyard looks like a swimming pool. I had contractors pour a new slab last month and they are coming back to regrade the yard next month. The water is just sitting. 

    Same, downpour, 45 Fahrenheit. I hope the wind blows the roof off my house. I'm sick of boring weather and the lame ass "events".... Let her blow!!

    I just didn’t want to think that low yet but yes even that would be my biggest. Have not had more than 3-4 inches in a storm.

    Pretty sure I've haven't had 3" yet, maybe not much more than 2-2.5". A solid 6" snow would be noticeable.Ya know, plow trucks coming down the streets and all, snow mounds on the sides of roads. A real winter event...
