wow. what're the odds the season's last storm is its most powerful? unless, of course, the atmosphere intends to keep spawning storms through late fall...

just chatting here. usually with a big warm front pulling away and the resultant ET strengthening we are treated to strong dry cold winds. but right now it's so still that it's not cold at all. i usually hate the day-after of a big storm with clear skies and screaming cold dry winds but here in Piscataway it's still, sorta humid, nice and comfy to be outside.

storm seems to have performed more or less as advertised, hours and hours of rain mostly moderate in intensity and sometimes heavy. i think it's moved a little slower than i expected.

haven't seen much sun lately, socked in with clouds yet again as i leave work.

snow or no snow, we finally have something to track, and we could really use precipitation in whatever form it decides to take.

i have a weather observation i observe this weather is boring it's so boring that if Metfan said "i think it's going to rain a quarter inch tomorrow" i'd give his post a weenie reaction

This weather pattern is very very Low Energy! SAD!

how much for New Brunswick?

i'm way more skeptical we'd be able to pull down that much cold air to get snow than of the storm's potential existence

absolutely premium weather outside. not quite indian summer but close. bright blue sky, warm sun and breeze. this is a long stretch of mostly uninterrupted great weather a la SoCal. week after week of gorgeousness. i almost wish i played golf.

maybe most aspects of it are still science fiction but as global warming progresses i think it's a virtual certainty that geoengineering gets serious scientific interest. for all i know it has already.

when you say shrimp people, is it a shrimp-sized person, or a person-sized shrimp with humanoid attributes and intelligence, like a character from Bojack Horseman?

i have started seeing the spotted lanternfly the last few weeks in New Brunswick, for the first time. and once you see one, well, it was like they all showed up all at once.

i wonder what all this is going to do to the fall foliage. on my drive up to Franklin Lakes Saturday, there was plenty of yellow along the 287 corridor, some orange and red even. now we're likely to get prodigious rain and some mildly gusty winds. i hope it doesn't negatively impact the leaves turning.

sup boys. took a drive up to Franklin Lakes, just day 12 in a row of super gorgeous weather. little jumping spider guy and the cup de'grass, i found several fishing spiders on the shore of Franklin Lakes... Franklin Lake... not actually sure what the name of this specific lake is... anyway this spider is probably the largest spider species endemic to New Jersey. these are the dark fishing spider Dolomedes tenebrosus, or your money back. also, several of these spiders had hatched baby spiders in their nests. the spiders hatch and then huddle into a ball. a ball of baby spiders. i found out so many terrible things today. but yeah great weather today.

terrible news for restaurants who need every dollar they can get.

just a bit of smoke, but it's there, as i could tell driving home with the sun low, large, and more than just a bit dimmer than its usual self, and from some folks posting smoke models. not like it was parts of last week, when i shot some good pictures directly into it. but definitely not at full mast. when i am cruising route 18 in my 2005 toyota camry, you boys better believe i'm looking my big stupid eyes into a big smoky sun. after a long stupid day of my long stupid life it was the only piece of beauty that keeps me giving a shit. give me more smoky sunsets. give me less of anything else.

nothing in front of us right now but an amazing stretch of beautiful weather.

nice post, thanks.

Paulette redeveloping would be appropriate. loops around and slams into Florida as a Category 3 right behind Hurricane Zeta or whatever we're up to by the end of the month.

crazy comfortable now. every day this week was beautiful.

i can't believe Vicky is still a thing

well either way sir you don't tell a fella you got a sight to behold and not give him a sight. give us some bird photos!

where is the picture buy a crop sensor DSLR from Costco and don't fail us next year

i am rooting for you Wilfred Jr. you big sloppy idiot get your shit together, get your GED, go flood a basement in Thibodaux, Louisiana. boost some property values. addition by subtraction.
