Scarlet Pimpernel

OK, so, I'm guessing no fans here of Hawaiian pizza???

Eyewall with a direct hit on Charleston???

To paraphrase Master Shifu from "Kung Fu Panda"... "When you focus on snow, when you concentrate...you stink!"

What's a shovel?

FYP...that will help, drink plenty of WINE!! Joking, but I thought a little levity would help. I know what you mean. Hopefully it won't get into a deep cough or anything like that. Do take care of yourself!! You're here posting on this board so you must be doing halfway decent, LOL!!

Right. Get this damned thing as dynamic as possible. Or more "exotic", as @brooklynwx99 worded it the other day! I know this is a very low probability event and extremely marginal. So what the heck...might as well go big or go home here, not like we have anything to lose right now. Get that thing to be as dynamic as possible and hope maybe we get the paste job, but if it's rain, whatever...that's probably more likely anyhow. But I'll root for the slight chance this could actually be interesting. I know mentioning March 6, 2013 is banned, much like Boxing Day 2010 (see what I did there? I just committed 2 sins in one sentence mentioning those events hahaha!). But this is in some ways similar or reminiscent. We got screwed on that because the upper low was too far south, and got alternating white rain and rain all day long. It sucked. Meanwhile, the area outside Richmond scored big because they were right in line with the best dynamics (which was supposed to be more up in this area originally). As I recall, that was likewise a very marginal event that depended upon rates and strong dynamic cooling.

I've heard Paxlovid is very effective but there's a tendency to have a sort of "relapse" once you stop taking it. I don't know all the details or why it would "come back" after finishing a course of the drug. Maybe now they taper you off more, to avoid that? I also haven't heard if Paxlovid is effective against the latest mutations of COVID, but I would think probably so at least to some extent. That sucks man, sorry you got it! I actually had COVID back last April. Fortunately I had by then gotten the original series of 2 shots and the booster, so my symptoms weren't too bad. More like a moderate cold, but no severe cough and no fever. I also felt a bit tired. But it more or less cleared up in a few days or so. Got the bivalent booster this past fall. Hope you don't have anything severe!!!

Does Lucy's dress count as digital blue?? If so, N MD PUMMELLED!!

So...anything interesting happen overnight??

Sadly, I fear that snow won't cure that issue!! But we do need snow badly all the same!

But Chill never said "exotic"!! OK...first dibs on a name here for any potential thread if this stupid thing materializes...We'll call it the "Exotic Storm." With all due credit and hat tip to @brooklynwx99 of course!

Yeah I'm not quite sure how or why the GFS is doing that. It digs that damned wave so much that it cuts off as you say. And it's incredibly sharp as it does so. Literally would be like a snow bomb as depicted. Exotic indeed. Well, upon looking just a bit more at that loop you show, seems like the trough in the west which digs down past AZ might actually be causing or assisting the one to the east on the other side of the ridge to do what it does? Maybe pumps that ridge just enough so that the downstream trough in the east can cut off?

It is an interesting idea and potential, which has shown up at that time now and then. I'm not overly enthused right now, but, well, I guess it bears watching. WTF else have we got, right?!?!

Haha, that scene was hilarious! "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" is a great film...a Thanksgiving movie that leads you into the Holiday season! It also has one of the most epic movie rants ever by Steve Martin, up there with Chevy Chase in "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" when he gets the "jelly of the month club" bonus! Now that I think of it, this is essentially how this entire winter has felt!! (ETA: If Steve Martin were a snow weenie talking about this winter, he might be there at the car rental desk saying "I want a f*cking snowstorm sometime during this f*cking miserable winter, I don't f*cking care how!" The lady at the desk would ask, "Do you have any clown maps that show this?" Steve Martin: "I f*cking threw them away when they f*cking showed me nothing!" Lady at counter: "Oh, no...you're F*CKED!")

So they're replaying it over and over and over again?

Who are the "Redskins"?? They've now gone "Commander"!! Ha! Well, try being from Cleveland and enduring a litany of sports failure and agony! (Other than the NBA championship in 2016 of course)!!

Sliced avocadoes as opposed to a whole one dumping into the US...a little better look!

Seriously...newbies!!! If you want to go pro, dump some brine on that window!!

With or without anything wintry, you're all set to go man!! But...what's with all that wasted space on the bottom shelf with milk and eggs? Think of how much more beer you could put in there. At least throw a tub of Helluva-Good dip in there too! Easy solution...all he has to do is drink a few of those and relieve some of the weight on the top shelf.

The Silence of the Lows (complete with fava beans, and a nice chianti!) or how about... Raiders of the Lost Archambault

If snow is all that you love, then that's what you'll receive!

Tropical of Capricorn??

Indubitably!

We're truly in bizzarro world when @Ji is being all positive! But if it gets us a good snow before this winter is out, so be it!!
