  1. Looks kind of toasty S of the border! How many times do you have to see the NAM off its rocker. I'm not biting yet, need model agreement.
  2. Didn't mean to divert the thread, my bad. We all have a cross to bear. We never know what goes on behind the statement, comments, life throws challenges at all of us. Again, I'm sorry for the OT statements.
  3. Exactly. Only now starting to control. 2 types of insulin with a Dexcom monitor. Old age sucks
  4. I have 2. I take over a dozen scripts. Once you start taking them, you're hooked. Took Eliquis for a year and the clots came back. Now on Xerolta, thankfully I have a good healthcare plan. Changes your perspective and attitude of life.
  5. My highest weight was 260lbs. age-56. Forced to retire, neurological issues from a slipped disc, lowest point in my life. I had to retire because of inability to walk or commute to work. My parents passed, bookended Mom in Dec and Dad in January. So, I moved to FL to start over. One day I had a podiatrist tell me I had circulation issues. A sore, an ulcer on my big toe. Long story short version- triple by-pass, a dozen stints, developed neuropathy in both legs, clots everywhere. I lost 140lbs. I was skin and bones coming in at 120lbs. My last visit to the hospital was due to DVT. Talk about painful OMG. Doctors stated I was terminal and that I ran out of procedures, no more surgeries and that the clots are going to kill me. Here one minute gone the next. TMI I REALLY WANT TO SEE YOU GUYS GET BURIED. I'll bet buried the other way... LOL
  6. NEXT.... In search of an extreme event. I do believe that there is a big-one in the deck of cards this season. aka HECS, a triple phaser. These 6-12" tracking for days just don't seem to cut-it. I want to see a cross polar blocking pattern, massive trough negatively tilted, SJ, NJ, banana 1050 to the N much like Sandy or the Perfect Storm backs in and stalls. Hey, one can dream.
  7. I left on the 01-12-15. If I only knew without a doubt would have stayed. First big snows hit a week later... No indication what-so-ever to what was going to happen. No idea that my health was going to fail either.
  8. OT I didn't know where to post this. Many people here are under-educated in this field of science. A new year, this URL is for those who would like to learn. I hope this helps some. Glossary of Meteorology
  9. The year I moved down here I missed the greatest stretch of SNE snowfall ever. I was so emotionally drained didn't even track any of it. ---- I would not give up on this yet. Only hope for a white xmas.
  10. It's always the next run or the other model. The "fix" is never satisfied. It all a tease. Could get a 3-footer and still looking for the next.... If you want to OD move to AK or the Canadian Rockies.
  11. Sure would like to see the OP models come around and show it. Give a day or two then maybe get excited. Slowly evolving into a coastal but not close to the ensembles YET. A great LR observation and analysis! It gonna snow... maybe.
  12. CC should be on a timescale much greater than the mesoscale seasonal effect of IMBY. The snap to warmer, wetter, stronger, never seen severity without question is occurring. The balance or unbalancing is precariously close to that scale tipping. I have no idea of what I'm talking about... all I know is it's happening in realtime. Honest!
