Thread title has always been slightly wrong, really should be "And When the Sky Was Opened."

Yeah just made it home during that, it really opened up just as I was leaping onto my stoop. Of course everything is only hotter and muggier now that it's over.

Silence, followed by unintelligible stammering. (Doctor Casino), Friday, 12 August 2016 00:05 (nine years ago)

I got pelted with some heavy early raindrops then ducked into a coffee shop to wait it out.

WHOA: Just in from the @MTA: As a result of downed trees across the northern suburbs affecting all rail lines, Metro-North Railroad has suspended service … To prevent overcrowding of Grand Central Terminal, the Terminal’s entrances are being closed temporarily.

turned the key to the front door just as the first drops hit. didn't prevent me from getting hit by the pollen and garbage tornado though.

chinavision!, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 21:41 (eight years ago)

the worst of the rain seems to have passed but now it's sirens all around and, yeah, my eyes are feeling that pollen/dust barrage.

I'm surprised there were any weak branches left on trees in NJ after the last 2 storms, but sure enough, more blocked roads.

Hideous Lump, Wednesday, 16 May 2018 04:42 (eight years ago)

That rainbow tho

We had this last night. It was pretty dull.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 16 May 2018 04:46 (eight years ago)

Yeah the post-storm sky last night at around 7:30 was incredible

Last night I left work a bit early bc I commute by Vespa. Got stuck in a brief sun-shower on my way home and drivers were assholes, but finally arrived home. I went inside to set my stuff down in a hallway, passed by a window, and an ocean was falling from the skies.

Grateful for the near miss. Less grateful for the city bus driver who threw his drink on me out his window.

I was doused, umbrella and all
