Most of the people in the stands looked like they were freezing their butts off. A friend of mine who lives near West Point, about 60 miles away said they actually had snow flurries up there. Global warming, donchya know. But yeah, LET’S GO METS!!
With temps in the upper 20s and holding steady at upper elevations through Monday, we lit up those guns from top to bottom Saturday night and into Sunday morning. The lower guns came off when the sun rose Sunday, but the snowmakers continued to pound T2, Upper Punch, and Ecstasy all day Sunday and into the night. Once temps drop again, you'll see those lower guns on Punch come back online, but for now we can promise you T2 for your Monday morning runs. But, as long as those temperatures hold, we'll keep making snow. In other words, when you show up for your earliest of early season runs, wear some Gore-Tex. Because it is snowing outside.Thanks to global warming or climate change or something taxable, this is the earliest opening in decades.
The season is too long, IMO. Hard to remember that Sandy Koufax once scratched himself from starting a World Series game on Yom Kippur. Now the regular season isn’t over by Yom Kippur.
Snow flurries here on Long Island, too. I have to say...even being as big a Mets fan as I am, I appreciated being able to watch the game from the comfort of my well-heated home.
I’d have frozen my butt off tonight. 41 degrees at the stadium! YIKES!
Let’s Go Mets!
Regards,
Snow flurries on Long Island yesterday as well... cold, crisp day yesterday....
