  1. A/C off (give it a break)...looking forward to upper 50s low tonight. 68F / DP 67F at 4:15am
  2. Glenn on air/at the board going nuts w/the radar graphics/tornado stuff for the past 10 minutes....
  3. Pouring, thunder and just saw lightning...no real wind. 77F
  4. Becoming dark, line looks decent. 81F / DP 71F
  5. Partly/mostly sunny, 80F / DP 71F. Some precip from the W moving in kinda quick...
  6. Hopefully we see some sun this morning to fuel things up...by early afternoon we should see something. 71F / DP 71F
  7. Pretty cool. They are plentiful right now. Waiting to hear some katydids... 72F / DP 72F
  8. Heavy rain at CBP. Game in delay...hell, way heavier than I received here.
  9. Watching the Phils in Philly, winds coming through. Hot dog wrappers and such blowing all around...
  10. Some rain but temps dropped like a rock...75F.
  11. Nice winds, dark. Hope my tar dried in time... 88F
  12. Although I was feeling chilly, it wasn't needed. On my final hot tar layer for the day, low and behold, Mr Cosby came up the ladder and gave me a vintage 1970s Fat Albert quilt along with a cocktail which had a funny taste....maybe it was me? 96F / DP 71F
  13. I'm making up any/all sorts of BS stories to get some damn storms/downpours in our area. I'm hoping mother nature will want to ruin my roof tarring fun with storms, rain, downpours and wind... 86F / DP 70F Some storms out by State College...
  14. Outstanding! The full-face respirator is in good hands. Bought 2 in case I can't breathe too freely....I'll slap another one of those bad boys on for maximum protection. Also, most tar roofing forums (and there are millions) recommend to apply 3 layers w/the last layer when the sun is at peak angle. Finally. end your day w/a mix of hot apple cider (10%) and 100 proof Fire Water (90%) in a closed windowed vehicle sitting in the sun all day. Highly excited about all of this!!
  15. Of course. Don't be silly, consuming scolding coffee throughout the day is a must. Most likely I'll start heating the tar around 7am till I hit exactly 215F. In the meantime I'll make my speciality, ghost pepper and carolina reaper omelette after I take a hot shower while wearing all black clothing, heated gloves and a facemask. Really should be fun... 91F / DP 72F
  16. 95F / DP 72F Thinking about hot tarring my rooftop tomorrow for extra water protection, shouldn't be too bad. Fully expect Storms/Heavy rain Thursday into Friday...
  17. Still 80F at a little after midnight...DP 69F.
  18. My family (6 of us including myself) plus camping gear in the VW wagon went to the mountains sometime in the 70s. I don't think my Dad planned it out because on some of the hills we couldn't make it above 30mph....people passing us. Looking back, kinda funny. Thanks. I think he's happy w/people around and feeling ok for his age. He has his garden as well. Unlike me, he hates the winter. Probably because his bones start creaking. He turned 88 and doesn't look/act any different than 87 so I take this as a good sign.
  19. 11am newscast, digging Glenns forecast for the weekend (burbs)... Today-Wed ~ Blowtorch Thurs ~ Transition...possible storms Fri-Sun ~ Upper 70s...possible storms 88F / DP 75F
  20. Taking out trash, lightning bugs have definitely increased over the past week or so... 80F / DP 70F
  21. Yep, I noticed that as well. T-storms are/were kind of a reward to a shitty HHH day. Growing up playing sports (wiffle ball outside etc) it was clockwork...long hot/humid day T-storms usually roll in the late afternoon. Many times a couple rounds. Many overnight T-Storms as well. Now I can't buy one...
  22. Damn, I could go for a good T-storm... 82F / DP 71F
  23. 76F / DP 74F Cloudy It's soupy out but not horrible but if the sun breaks through it will be really uncomfortable...
