    I can top that, try being a US Men's team soccer fan. Thrilled just to not lose by multiple goals.....

    As long as I can remember, and I'm 62, getting a decent snow in Dec ( I will consider 2-3 decent ) usually signals at least a couple more events for the winter; being La Nina the window is probably short, though....

    They actually had to break out the plows at Menlo this morning; it was nice walking conditions. Got some good pics. Could smell the simmering bacon coming from the IHOP.

    I actually don't remember the 2002 storm, guess I'm getting old. My daughter was 2 months old; 2003 I remember because they would not let us go home early from work even though the teachers and kids were leaving. I remember the supervisor chasing people to the parking lot. God, I'm so glad to be retired.

    And some of us have lost weeks in the fishing world to this awful easterly flow. And fall's blustery winds are sure to follow. A good chunk of the season is lost. Charter and party boat losses will not be recovered this year. The government has closed some of the major fisheries for the summer, and once again, the fall will be a waste because these storms cause the fish to migrate offshore. My garden is always a wreck by now and we are tired of tomatoes, which are rotting on the vines, peppers and eggplants rotting on the vines, and don't wanna see a zucchini again til next summer ( I stopped watering them months ago in pots, and they are STILL producing ). I don't mind the rain, really, but this easterly flow is like nothing I've ever seen. This is downright depressing.

    Yeah I was talking to my neighbor and he was in his car and the bugs were attacking him inside the car.

    Yeah, a lot of damage to my garden. These are the kinds of winds I only see after a tropical storm has passed through. It has that kind of feel. Was not expecting this and it's early in the season so a number of plants weren't strong enough to tolerate it.

    it can't end soon enough. My grass is done, and my arm weary from watering the garden five times a day.

    Yeah, spent 12 hours on the water yesterday with not one keeper fish of any species. What the hell is wrong with our fisheries....all the bass are too big to keep, all the sea bass too small, all the fluke too small, and there are no porgies anywhere but the Sound, which I guess we are going to have to make run to; long way from Sayreville ramp......but no longer than running all the way to the donut, the Rocks, the Mud buoy, the Farms.....and at least the Sound is sheltered. Never been up through that way, gotta run the East river through Hell gate and on past City Island. Great weather though, except that SW wind kicked our asses offshore yesterday. Came into Raritan Bay, it was gorgeous, bunker splashing all over, threw out some stretch plugs and nada. oh, and NJ will close porgy fishing this summer. Won't matter, there aren't any around.

    Lost a couple leaf lettuce plants, a cauliflower and basil last night. Wasn't ready. Lettuce, despite being a cooler weather crop, is mostly water, so if it's cold, forget it. Supposed to water them the day before a frost, wasn't expecting ice on the windows today. I mean, it's freakin late April.

    We had a few events. Maybe next year things will turn around. Other than the freakish warmth, this was pretty much an 80s type winter. Time to plan the garden, change the fishing lines, sharpen the hooks.

    was 93 an El Nino? we had some piddly events then a bigger one in Feb, followed by the superstorm in Mid March.
  13. weatherpruf
    And you didn't bring a rod? Never know......

    We finally jackpotted instead of dryslotting for once.

    Thanks for the update. No bills coming til Tuesday.

    I was the only maniac at the mall today...me and the janitors. But couldn't start up the snow blower at 6 am. Let the neighbors sleep, plus it is illegal.....got some nice pictures around Menlo. Plows having an easier time with this storm. They actually struggled with the ice a few weeks back, they closed the upper decks for a week til it melted. Going to fire up the big blower today.....10-11 inches ....

    it's a powder out here in NJ. Not wet at all.

    Great storm out here Ant

    Just picked my daughter up from work. She said dad its like a foot. I said no way, strapped on my waterproof short boots, went out, snow went right over them. Time to get the pack boots out.....and still snowing. Biggest snow since 2022..
  20. weatherpruf
    Don't even think it.....
  21. weatherpruf
    I'm surprised. Last I checked this was south and struggling. Remember Henry Morgusity; " It wants to snow there..." very unscientific....but who knows?
  22. weatherpruf
    Gotta take the daughter to Brooklyn to doctor this afternoon. Good thing we didn't take the Sat appointment. No place to park even without the snow.
  23. weatherpruf
    Is this a clipper? Never seen one produce yet since I've been following.

    6 is a pretty good storm for us, we were progged for 4-8, so there we are. Was hoping for a bit more but it's fine. Was a little tough driving down route 1 this morning to Edison, and worse coming home, but things are fine now. More like a March storm IMO.
  25. weatherpruf
    i think its a little better than that; we had about4-5 today just across the rive from the city and in that storm it was white rain; and the one after was almost as lame here.
