The job I am on the roofers are the only ones starting early at 6am I believe. The rest of us (union workers) are 7 to 3:30. Sucks! Im hoping they change to a 6am start but Im not confident. I haven't been outside that much but the area Im working is inside no AC just dead air. The GC set up a cooling tent but not many people use them because we have work to do.
I talked to some guys pouring concrete next to our rental in Florida (just my luck) I asked them how do you put up with this and get anything done? Their response, don't forget we can work year round, so we treat our summers like your winters, we only work a couple days a week and end by lunch time.
That's Hwy 36 which is the major route towards Sandy Hook. I heard the traffic was completely jammed as people tried to flee the beaches/marina's/Highlands bars.Looked pretty bad in several spots. We got a little drizzle down in Manasquan area.
Heat wave continues Sunday at Shore with potential for powerful afternoon storms
Monmouth, Ocean counties brace for one final blast from the heat wave. Highs to reach near 100 with potential storms in the afternoon.www.app.com
Asbury Press had run that story earlier today that we would get another round of storms this evening, but can't find it now. If the radar loop is accurate, it looks like it will get interesting after 7 p.m. in South Monmouth/Ocean. We need the rain. Lawns are brown.
My iPhone weather app says nothing until 10pm for around here.
Yep, the NW chart shows 7-8 p.m. as the witching hour. iPhones don't predict weather!
People think I’m lying when I say it’s been chilly the last few days here so thank you
Earlier today they were calling for rain here in Mercer county by 5pm and we got nothing. Looking at the radar I’d be surprised if they developed.Yep, the NW chart shows 7-8 p.m. as the witching hour. iPhones don't predict weather!
During the pandemic NWS had predicted severe wind gusts at a certain time on a particular day (I forget the exact day, but I remember the event because the wind knocked down a large tree limb, killing a young kid in our neighborhood). They were remarkably pinpoint accurate on the timing, and ever since, NWS has been my go to source. But extreme weather can be unpredictable.
Maybe we should have a contest to see who gets thunder/lightning first, like the old UPS ticket truck thing?
If the radar from TWC is accurate, still looks like 7-9 pm window in Monmouth/Ocean by the beaches.
That’s what I meant with the ocean looking like Lake Michigan.
Yea it’s nuts how windy and chilly it is but all I hear is we have a heatwave
Here it is. Got really dark 3 miles east of Manasquan. Winds are whipping the trees around. Time for fire calls!
did you hear they want to ban gas powered leaf blowers in New Jersey now...never ends.
But it will completely solve climate change in weeks! 🤭 …the same way electric cars and wind turbines are completely sustainable and environmentally sound! 😆
won't happen for awhile, but as technology improves people will change on their own without the whining.
Right now, however, the battery powered blowers are nowhere near as powerful as the gas ones. I have a battery powered one for blowing off the patios, but when I need to blow out planting beds and leaves in the fall, I need to use the gas-powered one. Maybe in time, they will improve.
Don't worry about climate change , natural progression will end gas preference .
With the way technology is, you can just about bet, what you feel can't be made, someday will be what's normaly used while the best gas powers one now will be considered as a lesser product .
Same here. I froze my rear off walking home from Ocean casino last night...
Quite the light show south of us and over the ocean. Rainfall was impressive too. Didn't last long but really came down.
A horseless carriage is what many people called the first automobiles .
