  1. Not so sure...looks like an avocado in Europe/Scandinavia, and maybe a small one around the Aleutians!!
  2. OK, I know it's a bit "late" here in a November thread, but here's my carved Jack-o'-Lantern from Halloween! @WxWatcher007, I hope the Reaper had a good and festive Holiday!
  3. So in other words, you look forward to a normal winter of posts in here! That's the one thing guaranteed, no matter how good or bad it is!!! I await the time we can dust off the "Jaws" music...
  4. This would literally be @Bob Chill's dream "glaciation" scenario!!
  5. Strange but I don't think I've ever actually seen a Woolly Bear myself. I do remember in northeast OH, Dick Goddard (the local and very good met there for decades...may he rest in peace!) hosted the annual Woolly Bear Festival every fall! It was quite popular and still going on each year I believe. And on another note, how much for Short Pump and that place in PA??? (Someone had to say it...)
  6. Damn, that's perfect! You caught all the great sunset colors, from purple to red to orange and yellow!
  7. Though...some may object to the lack of rum!!
  8. Now that would work! Maybe toss in some ice as well to make it just a bit away from the tropics!
  9. Now that sounds like some tasty stuff!!!
  10. I'm afraid if I drank a full capacity hurricane right now, I'd be a serious tropical depression by midnight and all day tomorrow as my own eye(wall) collapses, hahaha!!! I do have a couple of Pat O'Brien's hurricane glasses from years ago, still! I'd be curious what an "extra-tropical cyclone" drink would involve!!! Settling for some wine tonight...
  11. Stay safe, 007...and hope your chase is interesting! Send photos as you can... BTW, is that an image of the Reaper in the clouds, illuminated by the lightning?
  12. Hope they will be safe, Mrs. J...Atlanta is a good place to be.
  13. A tiger swallowtail on a thistle flower...
  14. BEWBS in the SKY!! (Sorry, had to go there with the immature humor, yeah!)
  15. Something doesn't sound quite right about how that's phrased! Better be careful which part of town you pick up any hook-echoes!
  16. Wow...looks almost similar to this (IAD sounding just before the derecho hit in 2012)...
  17. Sorry to be off-topic (should be banter I suppose), but speaking of closed-caption subtitles messing things up, I was watching "African Queen" (with Bogey and Hepburn) some years back. There's a part where Bogey's character says "I'm the captain, that's who..." (only he says "that's who" in a slurred manner, like "at's who!"). The CC on the movie had this amusing "interpretation!"...
  18. Wow...when's the last time there was an emergency departure for severe weather around here? I know there have been several in the past for winter weather.
  19. I would NOT want to be driving around in severe situations like that, branches all over, wind, no visibility. Heck, I happened to be out last Saturday during those big storms that went through and it was no fun driving in that, totally white-knuckled it with the steering wheel!
  20. I'd think it's a good call for just about any "evening activities" anywhere to just postpone or cancel, just out of caution at least.
  21. Right. I would doubt those that DO get hammered by any storms are going to say the threat was overblown or "complaining" about a bust, despite many others perhaps not getting anything too bad. Not the same animal as a large-scale snow event that underperforms almost everywhere.
