KamuSnow

Had to turn on the little generator here, takes care of the fridge at least. Still no word on when we might get power back, looking at the outage map there's a bunch (600 plus outages, 129k customers [for PECO]).

Still no power here (1.5 hours now) and no update on restoration time.

Yeah that was about 5 miles north of here reading the warning.

That was pretty impressive - could hear the wind roaring (SSW to NNE) as the line slowly approached from the west...had to be gusts over 50 going by the sound and tree motion. Lots of flashes but I think most of them were transformers blowing. Power has been off and on a few times here...currently off.

I've seen a couple of distant flashes here as well, but not close enough for thunder. Radar looks interesting, and winds are picking up a bit in gusts.

Lol....you might get a chance with this line coming through. Is rain a problem?

Did you remain calm?

I think the gefs are still based off of the old GFS model, if so we'll probably see more of this.

Looks a lot like this past March, lol.

Closing in on 2" of rain here, 1.97" to be exact. Been letting up as the back edge approaches.

Janice?

Relax...

Don't disagree. Seems so agenda driven that it feels disconnected from the reality of what people are dealing with.

Don't have a pic, but the sky was pretty awesome here this evening. Lots of oranges!

Nice timing!

Good luck!

The disadvantage of spring seeding is that the root system won't be developed enough to endure hot weather. It is nice though, this time of the year, to not have to worry about ever colder weather which can lower the blinds on seedling growth (like last fall here). I'd spread an inch or less of topsoil on it, feather it into the surrounding grass, seed it and rake it in (and water it as needed). You might need to hit it again in September, but I'd take my chances - you don't want to be looking at that all summer, lol. Eta - if you don't have one, get one of those 3 ft. wide aluminum dirt rakes, they're great for that kind of thing.

I'm taking them one at a time, but how sweet would it be to wind up with snow from all 3 events!

I can't imagine Glenn being all that inspired in that setup - he has a lot more to offer.

Good job! JB probably says cold and snow later this month and into February (maybe a bit more dramatically). I'm in favor.

You didn't miss much sports wise, starting with the 64 Phillies collapse. You would have liked the snow though.

Except I probably won't be able to resist!

Backyard blizzards are the best!

Whaddya mean? Seriously, thanks. I've generally had a good experience posting in the NYC forum. It's not like were that far apart.

I voted no because this is what I'm used to and it works for me. It's low key, but gets busy when something interesting is developing/happening. At the same time I'd stick around if there was a merger.
