Who says weather geeks can’t kick up their heels and let loose, have some real fun?

Well… it was a long time coming… the Weather Plus staff in part, gathered for a night out on the town On Friday July 20th at the exclusive, posh, extravagant, and ultra hot spot in downtown Manhattan. Producers, writers, directors, on-air personalities and staff enjoyed the electric, hip, vibe and a spectacular rooftop patio view of the NYC skyline (the Empire State Building – the standout iconic feature) of 230 Fifth. The décor, ambience, and general atmosphere of this multi-level space were a dynamic blend of ultra-modern chic, beautifully crafted in vibrant hues – a sight to behold. The roof had a tropical theme and appeal with lush greenery helping to solidify this desirable motif. With the music circulating the auditory flow, the throng of clubbers was positively energized. This was where we wanted to be. But what really made it an incredibly night out was the company of our group at Weather Plus… the setting was a very cool dressing. Indeed.

Might I add that the staff was highly accommodating, the service was sharp, quick, and responsive. Wonderful. A special thank you is in order for our hostess Sara! THANK YOU for taking such good care of us!

If have not been to this location, you must go. The team enjoyed it. Perhaps a bit too much! HA!

Let’s just say that we all had a very good time. And, guess what – the weather co-operated. It was cool but comfortable. A ridge of high pressure firmly in place over the Great Lakes has extended its influence over much of the northeast, hence the cool temperatures and fair conditions. We enjoyed a beautiful clear night overhead, and a gentle, forgiving northwesterly breeze. It was ideal for the pristine setting.

Next up… hmmm…we’ll leave it to our Producer Maral Usefi to come up with yet another social hit. What ever she has in store for us will be a blast! Thanks again Maral!!
