          It's that time of year again ~ Daylight Savings Time                            in Scarsdale, NY 10583  Spring forward on your clocks and devices this Saturday night before bedtime, or Sunday over coffee.  Also, it's a good time to check that fire alarms are working!  So, this is my favorite time of year in many ways, with a March birthday, warm weather on the way and flowers and trees thinking about blooming.  On the other hand, we lose this hour and "Spring Forward," every March.  I really miss this hour...until fall.  Spring forward or Fall Back? The term “spring forward – fall back” is meant to trigger your memory to set your clocks forward one hour in the spring at the start of DST, and one hour back in the fall when DST ends.                This fab pic of "Six Public Cl...

Two storms are on the way this week, after our Superbowl weekend and as the work week starts -- just like last week.    Watch for ice daming, as the days are warm and our nights are frigid cold.    So, details:  Here we go again, in our new early week snow pattern on the heels of Snowstorm "Lexi" that was NOT a dusting, but shovels full of snow early last week.  Be aware of flooding threats as we get quick mini snow storms that melt quickly or change to rain. Two storms are coming our way to the East Coast in a "Nor'easter pattern on Sunday Night into Monday morning, with a second wave through Tuesday.   This next "two-fer" system came up the eastern Gulf of Mexico Saturday and it is strengthening quickly off the Southeast coast along the Carolinas today. The track of this offshore low ...

What’s a PUFFBACK & what to do if you have one in Bronxville, NY 10708.Most of us have never heard of a puff back, unless you or someone you know has had this disaster occur in your home or business. A puffback occurs when an oil burner backfires and sends oily soot throughout your home or business.   Soot goes everywhere, out of vents and / or radiators and covers everything with a black film...ICK!   This anomaly can happen if a boiler is older, not well-maintained, or just malfunctions for technical reasons.  It's Fall now, even with summer temperatures.  However, cooler nights mean that we'll all turn on our boilers in Westchester County soon.  That's when last year's soot build up and and a boiler that has been used less frequently for hot water can "puff back!"  Contact your oil c...

Stay off of the Bronx River Pkwy today, due to flooding from Yonkers to White Plains Exit 21 10583 NY Highway officials closed the parkway after flooding rains this morning. The Bronx River may be closed up to 8 hours, from the Sprain Parkway exit in Yonkers to Main Street off ramp in downtown White Plains. If you like the ease of the Bronx River to southern Westchester townd like Scarsdale, try higher ground on Route 22 or Central  Park Ave. Please drive slowly and safely on slick roads, toHappy Spring.
