Didn't you go to the big outdoor concert of 78? I didn't go to many concerts but I did attend that one at Empire stadium that featured Heart, Little River Band ,and Bob Welch. I also saw Boston, my favourite band at the time, in 79, I remember being disappointed with the sound quality at the Pacific Coliseum. Nowadays I just stick to watching U2 , seen them 3 times in the last 10 years.

Had a high of 12° today .

Yes the Empire stadium summer concert it was awesome, saw Lionel Ritchie dancing on the ceiling with Sheila E back in 86 at the Coliseum. But tastes change saw Carrie Underwood in Abby in 2012 as well as Rain a Beatles tribute in 2012 that was awesome too.

AbbyJr wrote: Fri Jan 31, 2020 9:41 pm So I've decided to put together a spreadsheet to log my daily weather reports for each month.

I'm going to do one for each month of the year, however, I've excluded January due to the unfortunate loss of data. I'll log my daily and storm total from this event on our forums and start fresh on the spreadsheet beginning in February.

Here's a screenshot of the one I setup for February. Each month will look the same.

How does it look appearance wise?

Well done Jr. :clap: :thumbup: you'll have to post it for us to see afew times during each month.
