Just 186 short days until autumn. Only 3 more months until we start losing daylight again. NFL training camps will be open before we know it.

Buckle up!!

Some thoughts from our old friend Ray... ‘Unusually early’ tornado watch in effect for Philadelphia region | PhillyVoice

Yes, severe thunderstorm warnings were issued as the front approached and we were also under a wind advisory until 2am. But again, I think because local news made such a big deal about it (and understandably so, cause the threat was real), most people let their guard down around sunset because not much had happened by then. Of course, us weenies knew until the front came through later last night, we weren't off the hook.

Power is flickering but on for now. Been a while since a front has moved through with this ferocity.

My trash pick up was today, so cans went to the curb last night. They’re back by the garage now, so dodged that bullet. Still, I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s straight-line wind damage as the front comes through later tonight.

If they interrupt General Hospital for the stupid weather, I'm gonna throw a hissy fit like none other!!

From Mike's post above... southeast flow will increase the low-level rotation. In addition, this is a very dynamic system so not as much instability is needed for damaging storms. But like Paul, I'll be happy with a nothing burger today.

I’ve been saying the same thing for years! It would be a cash cow. Imagine all the adults running out of the house like little kids chasing the truck down the street.

First ice cream truck sighting of the season.

Step aside PhiEagleguy, I got this one... Ain't no way, no how, not ever, nope, nada, zero chance this gonna happen, not in 10 quadrillion, billion, zillion, google to the millionth power years. But hey, it's fun to look at

Junk & stuff blowing around again, 46F.

I wasn't paying attention but didn't realize we were expecting wind today. Guess it makes sense with the storm in the lakes. Lost power earlier, just long enough to have to reset all the clocks.

Went to bed last night with the window cracked open and ceiling fan on. Less than 24hrs later it was snowing sideways. Other than a little slop on the car, no accumulation here to speak of. Just white rain. 36F

But Ralph, that’s unpossible. Snow can’t accumulate after March 1st
