I do feel bad for SC who's getting hammered with rain. They're calling for 1 inch over the next 7 days now for us.

Most of the models seem to now be aligning with Euro. Let's hope it keeps up!

And FYI, according to Jeff Masters, you can't trust Canadians :)
"According to the 2014 National Hurricane Center Forecast Verification Report, issued in March 2015, in 2014 we had two track models that at times out-performed the official NHC forecast, a feat that is tough to do. NOAA's HWRF model did slightly better than the NHC official forecast for 2-day and 3-day forecasts, while the UK Met Office's forecast did slightly better than NHC's 4-day and 5-day forecasts. Once again, the European Center (ECMWF) and GFS models excellent performers, but the GFDL model, a excellent performer in recent years, had substantially poorer forecasts than the other four models. The Canadian CMC model and simple BAMM model had accuracies comparable to the GFDL model. The European Center model and GFS models were virtually tied as the best performing models when averaged over the three-year period 2012 - 2014."

Hello fellow storm watchers and flood survivors, I believe 4 pm is when they'll have some more data from them flying into the system.
The next week is gonna be a mess, but it's all about the rate of rainfall too... and since the ground could use some saturation and we are shy 8 inches for the month, let's hope no one sees any major issues.

I'm also on 5th and can attest that we got no notice of any work other than the no parking signs Fri. We certainly had no awareness that PSEG would need to enter our homes (one guy walked into my place without knocking). They were going door-door telling people they needed access to certain areas of the home and to leave doors unlocked otherwise they would lose gas for an extended period. I think overall people are reasonable if given a heads up so you can plan accordingly. That's not happening here.

According to this site below, JC got between 3-4 inches over the last 2 days. For those people who follow the rain/flooding situation in JC, does that seem accurate? I ask because I would LOVE to start gaining confidence that our intersection, after much work by the city, has finally improved enough to handle large rain storms.

We own a similar property and have thought about the park impact on our living. First, it'll take years for it to come to fruition, if it ever does. And as others have noted, the benefits of being near the park would be huge. I plan to be involved in any planning/community organization that will undoubtedly be formed to ensure residents have a say in the proposed park plan(s) and governance of it.

We got a side of carrots there one time, and I'm not even kidding, they were dumped from a baby carrot bag and had melted butter poured over them. If those carrots even touched a pan, I would have needed to see it to believe it.

Re: Jersey City Mayor Seeks to Limit Chain Stores Downtown

Sorry, but I highly doubt an Applebee's (or whatever chain restaurant) will go for changing their menu when chains pride themselves on consistency. They want customers to know if they get the "flaming chipotle onion belly bomber" or the "chocolate lava torpedo cake" in the middle of Minnesota, they can get it in JC as well. They also prepare their food consistently across locations so even just refrigerating a whoopie pie from Cocoa would probably be an employee and process change they would be unwilling to take on.

Twice now I've gone to get pasta there, and the same dude measured wrong...either out of stupidity or laziness. The first time I asked for a pound, only noticing when I got home it was 3/4. The second time, I asked for 3/4 and he started closing the bag at .59. I stopped him and he said, "ok, you want just a bit more?" Yeah, asshole, I want three-fucking-quarters!

No, Brunswick School is taking over part of the Catholic school on Brunswick closer to 7-8th. It's just a promo banner.

I agree with all of your points, except the hot coffee. They made a documentary about it, which changed my appreciation for the woman that happened to. It wasn't as frivolous as I thought:

+1 - I still feel awful for the owners of Ox, one of whom we've become friendly with after being regulars for the short time they were open. I do think businesses are opening more efficiently now than before. I believe if Ox were to have opened now, they would have been able to stay open. They were one of the first more forward-thinking/contemporary restaurants, in terms of cuisine. Now we've got Box Spring.

We went and really enjoyed everything. I keep thinking about the lobster tom ka, shrimp salad and crunchy salted chocolate cookies, and we went 2 weeks ago.
If you're prepared for a wait and can enjoy the bar, it's a good experience. I can sorta see what ppl are saying about it being noisy, but my husband and I had no real issue hearing each other. And as for proximity among patrons, you're much tighter in a space like Madame Claude, which, I get, is a different experience. But for us, it wasn't that uncomfortable sitting at the communal table because we eat at MC all the time, and are accustomed to being close to neighboring customers.

What's the deal with reservations at Talde? We didn't think they took them and then friends were there on Wed and they asked if they had them.
When you look on OpenTable, they have nothing available 6:30-9 for a month out (any night), and their voicemail message says reservations for 6+? Anyone know?
