  1. Hot summer days are for sinners. Backdoor cold fronts, clouds, east winds and the sounds of night time critters is where it's at...
  2. Looks like 7pm out there w/the clouds/darkness and light showers even though it's 4:30pm. Glad I cut the lawn early this morning. A/C on, Golf and Phils on, beer on, Summer solstice tomorrow and I may try to BBQ a steak....simple pleasures. 77F / DP 67F
  3. Even this early (5:30am), you can just feel/tell today will feel much worse than the past several days. Stagnant, more humid but at least there's a chance of some boomers later this afternoon... 66F / DP 65F
  4. We may fry a bit this weekend (not overly) but things become normal/below normal early next week moving forward. These low DPs and a breeze lately are great. Windows open at night and chill out. Great sleeping weather... 63F
  5. MJ had Pippen and Rodman. LeBron had to join the "big 3" to get a title in Miami Kobe had Shaq Embiid has....ummm Simmons??? Who can't shoot from the outside and is horrid from the line. What makes matters worse is he's good driving to the bucket but doesn't want to because he's afraid of getting fouled....then he'll brick from the FT line. (mental) He won't be here next year...
  6. Do you know what you're talking about???? He has shit for help and Simmons is the problem... Embiid and Curry combined to go 12 of 21 over the final 24 minutes. The rest of the team? A gross 0 of 11, including just one field goal attempt from three-time All-Star Ben Simmons. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nba/news/76ers-game-5-collapse-hawks/gx3knvpgdz7518rxuezihx8re
  7. Your post above to "remotely" blaming Embiid" is horrible....Simmons is the problem. What Center can score/move/rebound/pass and shoot 86% from them line!!! Wilt, Russell,Shaq etc would die to shoot 86% from the line...
  8. He had a bad night, no doubt but he can/and has kicked it up. Simmons CANNOT SHOOT in general...at all! And FTs...WTF. People thought Shaq sucked at FTs...his worse year in the playoffs was 38%, Simmons is at 32% (4-14 last night). Simmons, himself, has missed more FTs than 3 of the other playoff teams. If Ben would have made ONLY 70% of his FTs this playoff series...Sixers would have swept Atl and we're done.
  9. 42F DP at 1:30pm is pretty nutty (good) for June 17th....
  10. Pred: Burbs will finish out the month not hitting 90F or above...
  11. For myself, the progressive steps toward Fall are: Under 100 days ...then less daylight ...then seasonal cicadas/daytime start cranking July or so, Katydids at night ...then Eagles training camp opens ...then Max high is decreasing ...then Phillies are mathematically eliminated from playoffs contention ...then I really notice the sun angle is lowering/Fall angle ...then crickets come out in full force and jamming tunes all night ...then I see "back to school sales" commercials/ads ...then I see people selling summer shit (A/C/tables/chairs/BBQs) super cheap on craigslist because they're too lazy to put it away ...then whining on air news personalities "only 2 more weeks left of summer/til Labor Day...boo hoo" ...then Labor Day happens (My best time of year and going forward) ...then some obscure weenie joins the board and gives a winter prediction mid September... 72F / DP 61F
  12. ^Remember those old wise cracking dudes from the 70s....makes me feel old.
  13. Under 100....99 Days til Fall!!! https://days.to/until/autumn-or-fall
  14. I'm convinced this is not my year for severe weather. I've been getting screwed any way possible. Last year was rather decent so I guess it's Mother natures way of evening things out... 67F
  15. Quite a non event for my area....maybe a shower? 67F
  16. ^ Heard about this, this morning. Not that it will have any impact but may offer insight to this upcoming season... 82F / DP 66F
  17. Same...seemed to get late night/ overnight storms more when I was younger? Sun's out, temps and DPs rising, hopefully this will create a nice environment for storms at some point...
  18. I never thought about that? Hmmm... Either way, looking forward to the possibility of some late night/after midnight/early morning storms. Something about late night storms which is pretty cool. Everyone is asleep, quiet then in the distance you hear the rumble of thunder with storms moving in... 74F /DP 64F with a decent breeze, not bad.
  19. I hit the jackpot and saw 2 lightning bugs tonight so I can cross off that critter from the list... Some showers to the W....68F
  20. HurricaneAgnes has been using GRLevel3 longer than myself so most likely knows more about the ins/outs of the program than myself...
  21. It's pretty solid. I meant KDIX above not WPIX...screw up on my part.
  22. Using the GRLevel3 app/prog and the TPHL radar site. The KDIX site is down but there are others in the area...
