etudiant Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 18 hours ago, gravitylover said: Yeah we have a similar conundrum, FL and TX are out of the question as is most everything south of I70 but we want the beach. We can't afford CA or HI (or Long Island for that matter) so the options are limited. Cape Cod is probably off the affordable list too so... ME or OR? ME is cold for too long so it's not really like being on the beach but it's also close to the mountains. Southern OR is high on the hit list too. At this point we're pretty sure we want the beach but I have to have ez access to the mtns and skiing. Could we deal with AZ or NM? Probably but it's kinda dry. Throwing it out there to see what the hive mind here comes up with. Has Rhode Island been considered or even the CT coast past New Haven? These areas are a little less accessible from the big cities, but still quite wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 Sort of but $. The RI coast is another silly expensive zone and it gets too crowded. CT and the Sound don't do it for me, yeah it's better east but not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Star Posted August 19, 2024 Share Posted August 19, 2024 Looking for some rain total confirmations for Springfield NJ. NWS listed a report of around 4.5". Newark recorded a little over an inch, and I live about 2 miles from Springfield NJ, and I could not have gotten any more than Newark. I understand differences due to convection, but this is pretty extreme... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Route 78 was closed which rarely if ever happens so I don't doubt the higher amounts in the nw part of the county Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely got more than an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good morning Rob, FPizz. This type of day, for me, is a t shirt sunny side of the street, late morning walk. Stay well, as always ….. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit, I was a bit cold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
