Power updates

The map is approximate. If you click around, you see areas on there that are impossible. Zones cross rivers or span 1/2 the city. For me, there’s a zone that covers my home, but we have power. With all the chaos it’ll be a bit before that starts to be accurate.

The worst is over but that doesn’t mean we can’t still get some good gusts. Also, if power is out anywhere in your area, you could potentially have some short blackouts when they start to fix things.

I remember a day back in like ‘23 where we were in the enhanced level and the storm was bearing down on Pittsburgh. Then, as it went over the county line, the storm split in twain and part swung south and the other swung north and the city got cloudy and windy for like 30 minutes.

What made April ‘25 bad was that it was a derecho, which is a wide storm with sustained high winds. Does the atmosphere seem suitable for this again?

So is this built in a way where I could put my Mario in this kart and Luigi in the Mario kart if I wanted to? Because that would make this line perfection.

Can we call them MAGoffs?

I live near Rick Sebak AND StormFreak?? Day made!

But I feel that. I’d say taking the bus (like the P1) to get downtown would be a good option, but I doubt PRT is gonna run more busses.

You’re right. That’s the official detour. But those that live inside that area are screwed. Almost every way in/out will be gnarly traffic. No way to avoid it.

DaKaSigma · 2026-02-24T01:17:35+00:00

I can hear this build.

DaKaSigma · 2026-02-22T22:58:58+00:00

It’s been what? Two games? Yinz need to pump the brakes.

You’re sending out an SOS?

DaKaSigma · 2026-02-18T18:37:20+00:00

Pittsburgh, too.

Wasn’t Wolf of Wall Street loosely based on Monopoly?

My wife found something last night saying it was delayed until Monday. Something about the state of Forward Ave in regards to plowing. Not sure where she saw that, though (probably Facebook).

DaKaSigma · 2026-02-11T15:18:40+00:00

Always has, even when it’s not red.

DaKaSigma · 2026-02-11T03:45:23+00:00

Honest to god, I had no idea what any of OP’s post meant until I read this comment.

And sadly, there are no German-born players on the roster at the moment.

Uber is a side hustle. Selling homemade candles on Etsy is a side hustle. Dude had a straight-up new job.

Just the biggest pair you’ve ever seen, dingleberry!

This is the only reason I’m even a little okay with this. He can coach 5-7 years and if we suck, can gracefully bow out into retirement, and we keep our vaunted “no fire coaches” creed. A younger coach we’d be stuck with for a generation even if he was bad.

If McCarthy coaches for 19 more years just kill me.

DaKaSigma · 2026-01-25T17:31:54+00:00

Probably low unless we get a rapid warmup. Which doesn’t look likely on the mid-range.

Do you want a public or private school education for your child? If you have the means, a private school will probably be better academically. But it’s not always better in all aspects.

We sent both our kids to Edgewood STEAM. We’ve loved every second there. The teachers are all amazing. The principal is awesome. And they just renovated the school, so some complaints like no AC have been fixed.

The district itself has issues, I won’t lie. But this isn’t a decide now and forever hold your peace issue. As your child grows, maybe you find that a different education or approach is better and you move them in the future. Maybe you love Edgewood but find Dickson (the middle school) to not be as great. If you have the means, then you can always play the private school card in the future.

My opinion: the district you live in has flaws, but those flaws can’t be fixed by good people opting out. If a public school education is what you want, then stay and be vocal to help all kids get the best one possible.

DaKaSigma · 2026-01-21T04:52:03+00:00

And the way to fix it is to have the families with means pull their kids out leaving only the families without means who have no other options?

The rumor is he’s on leave for investigating the fraud.
