Statewide school holiday in NY since last year

Really? I'm sure the people who geographically live in 99.743% of New York State proper thought that an odd decision. LOL

Tremendously misleading statistic given that people outside the NYC metropolitan area make up only 36% of NY States population.

Also you’ll be happy to know that it’s a public holiday in New Jersey as of last year as well. New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy signed a joint resolution making Lunar New Year a public holiday in the state, saying "New Jersey is home to the third-largest per capita population of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the nation, which is why it is important to honor and embrace the rich traditions of our diverse AAPI community.”

Sometimes I struggle with whether you're being serious or not.

Reading composition is a wonderful thing. He didn't say 99.743% of the population. He said "the people who geographically live in 99.743% of New York State proper"

Long range shows potential torch. It was a good stretch. Wish we got at least One big storm at Sugarbush.

I’m fully aware of what BG said. It’s like posting a red/blue map of US voting results and saying 90% of the geographic area of the US votes Republican. True, but misleading.

 

[BenedictGomez]

Alternatively, as you specifically phrased it, you could just stop at "true".

I experienced this like 30 years ago there and the longtimers were dumbfounded

 

[kingslug]

Yup..a light rain..so nothing like the one 20 years ago...but its pretty warm.
Very windy today..avis all over the place.

 

[Zand]

Damn, the slug effect has come full circle

Jay is still ahead of Snowbird and Jackson Hole for snowfall this year

I was at powder mountain in the late 90s once when it rained. Wasn’t the end of the world
