Cyclone-68

I’d usually decry a jinx thread for a threat this early until I remember my overall odds have been crummy all season anyway. So let’s do it! (CT/NY/PA/NJ) sigh….

I’m at the Poutine Festival in Londonderry. Yay….

With not even an average hurricane season to distract us…You could theoretically walk across the ITCZ right now without even encountering a cloud

Unbelievable…..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_State_Labor_Day_derechos I’d have a stroke if we missed TWO derechos in the same day

It’s raining hard in Scooter-ville

Once again the same area struck about 100x this summer. It’s getting old

This might be the most uneventful hurricane season in my lifetime

And we never had another hurricane ever again. The end

We’re very lucky to not have to worry about black widows and brown recluses around here. Once in a blue moon someone will claim to see a widow in MA but that’s gotta be a rarity. I saw a baby funnel web up close in a garage in Canberra, Australia many years ago..Didn’t know at the time and luckily they aren’t aggressive

It couldn’t possibly be any more “meh” than it’s been around here. Maybe the tropics will provide a temporary diversion

Just my little contribution but the traffic that weekend (Labor Day) up there can be insane

In other news the sky is blue and water is wet

I’m going with Tips faux map and I won’t change my mind

Iniki was pretty bad for those folks. Still talking about it when I visited a few years ago edit: not questioning what was written above of course
