    Big volcano down there. Edit: I'm still in shock that my Dad sent me a text last year about underwater volcanoes adding all that heat to the oceans.

    Could put it in the "green stuff" thread. I don't mind!

    Stop it. Seriously.

    I'm honestly in no rush to bring cold weather in - never have been and never will be. On December 1, my feelings change and I'm ready to roll (or at least ready to start seeing wintry weather on the horizon), but before that I don't get worked up about the weather on any given day.

    I have to ask...why do you think that other than to gird yourself against potential disappointment?

    Absolutely glorious weekend. Seems like most weekends recently weren’t ideal for the annual War of the Leaves, but after a huge leaf drop early this past week this weekend has been ideal for it.

    ^ Yeah…Jan-Feb look really nice there. Based those maps, I’d love an early-December torch that ends with some chill and precip leading into a rocking early January followed by a late-month thaw and killer February.

    Ugh. Just keep trying various foods and drinks and one day you’ll start sensing something and it should start coming back fairly quickly. For me, it took another week or so after I could definitely taste/smell in detail until I felt everything was back to normal.

    But it's not. The same general idea is there, which is what you should expect from a climate model.

    Seems we didn't go too low, either. I don't have obs from before I woke up, but I saw 34 on wunderground at 6:30 and then 33 at 7:00. We usually radiate OK, but I'm not sure if it was colder than that earlier in the day...though it was really damn frosty out there!

    It's a damn good song. Some of Lennon's later stuff was absolutely fantastic, and I think we're so lucky that Paul and Ringo got to sink their teeth into it. Really poignant song, as well. I heard they also used some backing vocals from a few other Beatles songs and that Paul may have played slide guitar on it.

    The post-super Nino era hasn't been kind to us: Nina Nina Nino Neutral Nina Nina Nina Obviously there's ore to it than that, but that ENSO stretch isn't helpful to our snow chances. A strong basin-wide Nino should help alleviate that it his year.

    Agreed with the comments about it being very easy to digest. Really well researched and written!

    I'm thinking a little higher than normal, if only because of the greater chance of a nice event or two given all the factors at play. I'd love to be wrong and have multiple shots during a pretty cold Nino winter, but I can't let myself go there.

    Harvested about 7 lbs of tomatoes and jalapenos yesterday in preparation for first freeze. Looks like I'll be pulling the garden this weekend!

    For?

    Front is moving through and the massive beech trees in all my neighbors' backyards are shedding like a husky in spring.

    It’s still a couple days away, but it’s looking more like the GFS solution will play out. If it does, that’s a pretty damn good verification from many days out in the face of the CMC and Euro solutions.

    People like to stick with their negative takes be abuse they draw attention and gives the poster the chance to spew “I told you sos” after the fact if things don’t go how many few it will.

    Pretty sure I posted more in spring and summer this year than I did in the last few winters. It really does get unbearable at times, and the negativity before anything has even happened is the worst part about it.
  24. mattie g
    Agreed…and there’s really not much difference among all three. Figure we should start seeing some more convergence soon.

    Not sure how reliable the home tests are anymore since the virus has changed so much, but that certainly sounds SARS-y! I've had COVID once (this past January) and I had complete anosmia and ageusia for almost three weeks - well after my other symptoms were long gone. By the time I got to ten days, I started getting *real* concerned that it was going to last a long, long time, so the first time I could start sensing smell/taste was a glorious day! Sucks though. Sorry to hear you've been battling that crud.
