Great Snow 1717

page hits....

This goes far beyond a "drying out"....this is an all time historical drought for the fall across much of the northeast.

Feels much like hitters did when they had to face Pedro Martinez when he was in his prime....no bueno...

I agree....reinforcing cold fronts have become become an urban legend of sorts...I miss the days of the Alberta Clipper...they usually did not bring much in the way of snow but often brought windy conditions and colder air..

sort of like saying if the Titanic had not hit the iceberg...

.....the deniers will disagree...

That is correct....flurries in Oct and Nov were more common. As was the ground beginning to freeze.

This has to be one of the dullest years for weather in New England history...my weather logbook is filled with pages that read "sunny and warm"......

I don't think the NFL is going to allow the Jets and Giants to not finish their respective seasons...

FYP

You have no right to complain about people wanting the AN temps to continue on...lol

pass lol

New England has become the San Diego of the northeast...

I don't believe it but someone did insist...

..oh yes someone has said that lol..Don't you recall someone insisting that November is a winter month???

..yeah and winter begins on Nov 1st!!....

C'mon that work out very well for people in florida...

42 in methuen this morning..felt great outside!!

It's a "cold" TORCH....

68 in Methuen...one of the best days of the summer. No TORCH...NO DEWS....plenty of people outside doing activities from walking,jogging,cycling, yard work, and home maintenance projects...an ideal evening coming up to attend high school sporting events.

How is your forecasted endless torch going for you?? Lol.....

....it sucks..

There are some dumb asses out there that push the rules and limits beyond where they should be pushed. With that said the vast majority of coaches that I know are very aware of safety protocols and rules/regulations. Keep in mind every hs athlete MUST submit a physical report before being allowed to practice. In many cases parents need to sign a waiver and other medical forms. A good example of this is the one of the Tauton HS website. https://highschool.tauntonschools.org/apps/form/form.TAUSD-TAHS.ubCKRb7.S2_?_=1715952960469

.....it is a lot more difficult to prove gross negligence than what many people assume...educators and coaches are well versed in gross negligence....yes some instances of it does take place but even those lawsuits can be difficult to prove and win..
