The news is saying that the nor'easter is comparable in strength to a category 3 hurricane.

Yesterday had the most recorded rainfall in a single April day in Philadelphia history, the most for any day outside of the Atlantic hurricane season (June through November), and the 13th most for any day in Philadelphia history. (For the record, the first day on that list was the day I moved into college. True story.)

There was some snowfall officially recorded in Philly this morning, which makes this year tied for third ever in terms of latest snowfall.

367 is opening two hours late today.

And the apocalypse is coming? Perhaps?

5 years ago tomorrow was my last day of classes as a junior in college, a traditional day of celebration for all Penn juniors called Hey Day. On my Hey Day, it was 95 degrees.

Man, I miss spring.

OMG, the day we moved in to Drexel was the stuff of legend. I've never seen anything quite like it in Philadelphia.

Also, I believe move-in the next year was the hottest day of the year, or the hottest day ever in September, or something like that.

Good times.

I can't remember, but I may have called them the day before move-in to find out if it was still on, rain or shine. It turned out that shine wouldn't be an issue, but rain would, along with power outages, non-functioning elevators, half of the streets in the city flooded out, and so on.

I've never liked rain much, but for a good 6 months after that day, it didn't really bother me. No matter what, it just felt like a light drizzle.

Hmmm...Have I seen your room? :)
