  1. Just about every sportsbook I look at have the Phils finishing 4th in the division, Nationals 3rd and Marlins last. Mets/Braves flip flopping for 1st. Many have the Phils with 81-82 wins which is .500 ball. I see very little chance winning the division but with a couple nice bounces and 87+ wins they could sneak in a wildcard spot.

    Anti snow sun angle season is here, melted the snow on my car through the clouds and a temp of 30F

    I have it pegged down between the 2nd and 3rd week in Feb its effects start to be noticed. Not super horrible yet but you notice it from a month ago. I'm sitting at 31F and sunny but quite a bit dripping going on...

    I’m curious what falls. I’m wondering if it will be white rain, rain, snow that acc on snow, rate dependent snow, no clue really. Best guess is rain with flakes mixed in for the city

    Snow on snow maybe but that's about it. No car toppers, no pavement/asphalt and basically slop to rain IMO. Would like a surprise but I don't see it...

    I played a little when I was younger, but not so much as a youngster. It was the Flyers who got me and a lot of others interested. I was around for the 1974 Stanley Cup, and it was just awesome. Philly sports in general had been on a bad run for years, and they captured lightning in a bottle. People (not Flyers fans, lol) make a big deal out of the Broad Street bullies aspect,  but they had talent.

    I remember leaving a Phillies game during the Flyers playoffs, and everyone was singing "B-B-B-Bernie and the nets" to the tune of Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets", such a good time. People in Philly knew they had something special, but I think elsewhere people were surprised that they won. I was in Montreal during the summer and people told me they were rooting for the Flyers after Montreal got knocked out, probably cuz they didn't want the Bruins to win, lol.

    That was the beginning of a nice run for our teams culminating in 1980 when all 4 teams made it to their respective championships. 2 out of 4 that year wasn't bad, although I was still heartbroken when the Islanders beat the Flyers in game 7 on a goal that looked offsides.

    P.S. Bernie was referring to Bernie Parent, who was one of the best goalies of his time. They won the 6th and deciding game against Boston 1-0 (at home!). I can still picture the winning goal, a shot from the point that dipped and Rick Macliesh had his stick down on the ice and tipped it up over the goalies shoulder. Lol, that's my trip down memory lane, thanks for the inspiration!

    Nah, it was 1/4, Phillies.

    Sixers lost to Lakers

    Eagles lost to Raiders

    Flyers lost to Islanders

    I was pissed we didn't win more...

    Rgem continues to hint at maybe c-2" along 95 n and w(2" are the nw areas). 3km is pretty close to that too. Timing just absolutely blows though! Im rooting for white rain/snow tv at this point.

    This will a be grass only (or snow on snow) event if anything. May not even stick on cars....unproductive snow.

    It appears the timing of this is horrible, late morning / early afternoon. It would be a nice little hit if somehow overnight...

    Flyers / Bruins Sunday outdoors at Lake Tahoe. My God look at that scenery...

    Yep, mod snow here. Too bad today's snows didn't come at night, easily could have picked up an inch or two. As such, it's melting on the pavement and cars. Still, always nice seeing snow fall, 32F.

    Yep, it's getting that time of year where night time would help out immensely. A month ago w/these same conditions it would stick everywhere. It is sticky somewhat on the pavements (cement) but the roads have no shot...

  8. Mod snow but heaviest of the day compared to the light stuff this morning....lower/darker clouds as well. Main roads wet except for snow/sleet from yesterday. Back roads patchy sticking as well as pavements. Overall, not bad.

    31F / mod snow

    I like that it's random, although not totally random. There's probably a criteria for what gets a tag vs not.

    RedSky and I are a guaranteed lock for a weenie, probably newcomers get drilled w/a weenie as well. Sporadic activity after that...he should have a detailed handbook by now.

    Radar looking kinda weak at 1:30am.....25F.

    What a disaster for the birds - the haul they got nothing close to what you should get for an overall 2 and viewed only 5 months ago as your franchise QB - the dead cap hit will kill them for a long time.....brutal!!

     

    He's damaged goods and other teams teams realized this. It's best to move on and get what picks you can...he didn't want to be here so why bother?

    Nice basketball court from pictured above...damn!

    25F

    I need to get back into better call saul. Not sure why I stopped watching it wasn't like I didnt enjoy it. How have the last few seasons been? 

    Since I changed my username on here like a year or so ago it wont let me do it again. Would probably have to contact a mod. 

    Oh, yeah, and nasty outside. Roads are still pretty bad. 

    BCS has been/is very solid and still waiting for the conclusion. It definitely held its own after BB.

    Ask a mod...if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen.

    25F / light stuff falling

    Going to get really slick tonight. Was light freezing rain the whole way back to Hopewell. "Only" 4" up here, some was likely lost to compaction though. 

    What time do you think the additional snow will occur? My thinking is early tomorrow?

    Looks like overnight will be misty freezing stuff...

    26F / misty something

    "Heisenberg". Nah, that's already been taken by another weenie on another site :P

    Still waiting for the 6th and final season of "Better call Saul". I'll never again get involved in any series that has 10 episodes then waits a year for another 10 episodes and again and again.

    Oh yeah, this is the weather forum....26F and shit falling from above.
