OT: last chance for a bit of snow (3/23)? Warm/less snowy pattern likely thru end of Feb

Sorry, but I needed a break from 24/7 CV2. Last chance, probably, for snow this season, on Monday 3/23. We're still 4 days out, but seeing decent model consensus on some accumulating snow not too far NW of the 95 corridor (3-4+") and maybe an inch or two even from Philly to NYC. Problem is we've seen this movie a few times this winter, where something looks promising and the threat dies or more likely becomes rain, given the warm pattern and dominant storm track being inland, bringing warm air and rain to us.

Not worth a new thread yet, since it could be nothing or very little, especially with daytime snow in late March, which often means white rain. Given that there's some hope that spring will help blunt the coronavirus, this is the first time in memory where I'm rooting for warmth and sunshine over snow. Alert the media. But I won't complain if we get a one-day cold snap with a few inches of snow that melts quickly.

On the bright side, it could hit 80F tomorrow in some places...with some thunderstorms possible

Well at least most of us wouldn't have to drive in it! And the schools would have to worry about closing.
 
In retrospect I would have taken 3 months of snow threads and discussions over the current subject matter we are all dealing with and posting on. To say the least.

I think we all would. Tough times. Still can't believe we finally made the NCAAs and after 40 years of going to games I was finally going to be able to go (had reasons I didn't make 83/89/91) and then this. Yeah, I know that's nothing in the grand scheme of things, but it still sucks, especially for people on these boards, who are all pretty much RU fans.

For real. It would have been tremendous to go to round one. Just wasn't to be unfortunately. On a side note, thanks for all you do keeping us informed here. It is appreciated and I like to share any info with my wife, as she works at a hospital.

Last chance, probably, for a bit of snow this season late Sunday and Monday morning, with a fair amount of rain to follow for the vast majority of us (up to 1"). I'll be happy to see some flakes and maybe a coating along the 95 corridor - could be a few inches NW of 80/287 and anywhere N of 80 in NW NJ/PA and the Hudson Valley, especially in the higher elevations. Enjoy it if you get some...

A storm system is expected to bring heavy snow to parts of New England, and 1 or 2 inches of snow to parts of northern New Jersey on Monday.AccuWeather

I remember I asked you in early Feb if you would give up snow this year if RU could make the NCAA. You got double kicked this year.

Damn you, damn you all to hell! lol, I had forgotten about that - I'll still take this past season, without the Tourney over a snowy winter - it really was a magical season. Most enjoyable hoops season, ever, for me, even moreso than 82-83, which was my favorite season before this...

I hope you get a little snow. Everyone deserves a little extra happiness.

Holy crap, you're going soft. First you agreed to not troll weather threads if Schiano got hired and now you're sending smileys to me. All kidding aside, thanks and take care of yourself and your family - even though we disagree on a lot of things, I want you around to argue with for a long time. :>)

But remember, next winter, the trolling will be EPIC! After this current crap is over, seems like a good time to plan a TKR event at a local steakhouse.

We did it in Toronto and I personally thought it went well.

Do you agree, @RU848789 (Eric - lol) ?
Think that a local steakhouse or Italian place would be great. I would recommend one of the following:
Girasole - Bound Brook/Bridgewater on 28
Catherine Lombardi - NB
Steakhouse 85 - NB
Wolfgang Steakhouse - Somerville

The owners are alums.

Not sure about the other places.
