What I found interesting about them last year was...not even THEY forecasted in big storms for last winter like they usually tend to do! That shoulda warned us of last winter's drudgery, lol
-
Black Panther was Bozeman's 9th symphony. Some greats make their last crowning work just a few years (or less) before they pass; Black Panther is his! Rest in Power...
-
And he was battling colon cancer all through the Black Panther movie...talk about a true super hero! I've been hearing how medical researchers have been raising the concern about younger people getting colon cancer lately (just look at Trey Mancini, for crying out loud!) I pray they can figure out why...

Praying for you and all the other teachers that have been struggling. It just sucks that the situation is so lose-lose in a lot of school districts.
-
They clearly don't have enough exodus... (okay I'll step out now)

The "Double Trouble" Banter Thread
Maestrobjwa replied to Windspeed's topic in Tropical Headquarters
I don't think some brains here are separating the digital reality to the physical on here...sweet mercy above. 150mph...155...tiny little digital things that don't make a bit of difference with the reality of the storm! -
Translation?

Spring/Summer 2020 Banter/Complaint Thread
Maestrobjwa replied to IWXwx's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Perfect, lol -
@psuhoffman And also when you have some time...could you run through exactly what factors made 1995-96 do what it did?
-
Ya know...as we were going through the doldrums of last winter...I always wondered what's worse: A winter like last year that torches the entire time, or a la nina winter like that one that can break ya heart with the "we're too far southwest" close misses. I don't know man...I'm tempted to pick the torch, because I get nearby snow envy...but at least la ninas can still be cold sometimes (and scenery snow isn't completely out of the equation)
-
How can a forecast be for warmer than last winter? Lol

2020 Mid-Atlantic Severe Weather - General Thread
Maestrobjwa replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
Well if they're nothing to get excited about, why the heck would they be called "WOO!!!!" storms? -
I'm not advocating that we do differently...just pointing out the exception that's all
-
I'd say the one area of college that would feel the most impact of virtual vs in-person is the performing arts--i.e. music and theater majors. I majored in music--and I can imagine not being able to have private lessons, ensembles, and performances (particularly the degree recitals required) must be a pain. Zoom can only get ya so far in that! Lol
-
Sweet mercy dude...I must inform ya that emetophobia is a real thing...how do I block this GIF? Lol
-
Just out of curiosity...what would be that threshold?
-
Not that many times, actually...only last year iirc--because we didn't start having the extended low solar until then. So technically...I'd imagine that still has one more winter to have an effect before we declare that broken as well, lol (and by comparison, we might have more successful examples of low solar working than Siberia!). For me...the last three solar minimums producing warrants one more chance...
-
Man I didn't even know that could happen there, lol (of course I'm just an amateur hobbyist when it comes to this stuff!)
-
Besides...we don't have to look too far back to see that: just look how 2017 turned on a dime! Here we are looking up at the eclipse...and the next thing you know (like literally starting the next week)...Harvey, Irma.....eventually Maria, and others! I don't even know much about how stuff happens in the tropics...but that year was enough to convince me about how quickly things can change!
-
Since apparently it's mandatory to always factor in the fact that it's 2020...bet on this happening at least once between now and late August, lol
-
Oh dang you were that close?? Glad your house didn't sustain any damage! Man this has "dilapidated city infrastructure" written all over it, smh
-
And you'd be somewhere between troll and objective. And people react differently, dude...I call it snow loving. Hysterical is a feminizing term, tbh
-
After last year I kinda gave up on that...lol I guess a tiny piece of me hopes the solar min will save something...but that's about the last "WDI" thing for me. As somebody said, we hit bottom solar earlier this year, and from here it only goes back up...so that...combined with the fact that swe saw no apparent positive effect from the low solar last year, I'd imagine this winter would be the last chance to see it. If we don't, then that "effect" might be broken like everything else seems to be, lol
-
Is that always true, though? Still think that depends on the larger factors like ENSO and NAO and such. What bothers me is...if this becomes a new reality, we may have to rely on even MORE flukes than before!
-
Ohhh I see it alright....but as I said, it's bad enough to have the bad data in front of us. I don't get how poking fun of it and pretending to enjoy things going bad even more ain't salt in the wound. We could be looking at the prospect of losing something in life we've all enjoyed (or at least seeing even less of it than before). So yeah, maybe I am a little reactive to it--but it sucks, plain and simple--no matter how low you set your expectations.
