  1. Expansion of urban areas, IMO, is a sizeable contributor to AGW. More concrete, more car exhaust for VOCs, less green space.
  2. Ian on Twitter likes the Jan 5th to 20th time frame for something decent.
  3. I believe it. We're starting to get more wildland fires during the afternoons. Loch Raven reservoir had one that was something over like 6 acres the other day.
  4. New updates to the Tempest Android app are nice. Now shows highest/lowest temp, wind, rainfall, etc. recorded in the past month, year, and all time. Considering the constraints I have on the size of my property, this is a nice little weather station.
  5. Totally understand. Based off other posters here and Twitter (HM, Eric Webb), the PNA appears to be heading to a less than hostile set up past Jan 1 - 4 timeframe. If this kept getting kicked back to the point where it would be showing this transition past Jan 10 - 15. I'm not saying this is going to be Winter 2009 - 2010, but you can see on the GFS and the Canadian how the gulf opens up a bit and storms aren't ejecting out of Denver into the Great Lakes. We are at least standing a shot at some frozen.
  6. My apologies. I mean to say 2018 - 2019 and I've gone back and corrected my post.
  7. Really happy to see the pattern isn't getting stuck in D15 or beyond. Folks shouldn't focus on a single piece of energy or one potential event waffling north or south, etc. We're in a far better position than this time in 2018, where it was pretty clear the rest of the winter was going to be a dud. EDIT: Got the years mixed up, corrected for winter of 2019 - 2020.
  8. For those of you who miss the days when TWC played Christmas music on the Local on the 8s: https://twcclassics.com/search.php?query=christmas&section=audio
  9. Temps spiking. I have a neighborhood cherry tree and forsythia bush blooming.
  10. That was the best winter of my life. The only thing that would've made it better is if the December snow lasted for Christmas.
  11. I have drizzle and a few pingers. 34/22
  12. Those are great events because you and build up a thick, dense sleepy snowpack.
  13. WxTwitter was talking about that today. Seems like a data processing error.
  14. It's really nice actually. Probably the best look in a couple of years. Couple of observations from my igloo: 1.) So far, we aren't kicking this pattern down the road. The Dec 31 - Jan 2 pattern change timeframe seems reasonably agreed upon. 2.) The -NAO doesn't seems to just wash away. It looks kind of stable. 3.) The past couple of days have started to show better signs of a -EPO forming to help secure more cold air.
