  1. I went through some serious b*******, and I'd hate to see it happen to anybody else. Reclassification as Non-IBD IBD-related medications (namely, 5-aminosalicylates, thiopurines, corticosteroids, and anti-tumor necrosis factor [TNF]) were used in 55 of the 108 patients (50.9%) misdiagnosed with UC and in 80 of the 184 patients (43.5%) misdiagnosed with CD (Table 3) https://journals.lww.com/ajg/fulltext/2023/10001/s1033_misdiagnosis_of_inflammatory_bowel_disease_.1572.aspx
  2. Yes, apparently, if the sun can break through, that'll be key in that possible evolution.
  3. I can smell the rain , but I'm left high and dry at home so far. The ground was still wet when I left Mechanicsburg, but it was completely dry when I got home. I'm pretty sure that I heard one rumble of thunder while out in my shed about 25 minutes ago, but I didn't see any lightning and nothing was detected. Some rain before the wild raspberries start to abort and lightning bugs peak, sure as hell would be nice. Some of the main things that I grade my summer on are convection, heat, humidity, frogs, lightning bugs and raspberries all are in danger of being extremely lackluster, this summer, and it's really starting to f****** p*** me off.
  4. Yup. No more rumbles of thunder here, but the west end of Mechanicsburg is getting another shower, just enough to get the ground wet.
  5. Extremely light, it only lasted a couple minutes . Just heard my first two rumbles of thunder of the day, something off to my northwest right now.
  6. Get a second and third opinion, especially if it doesn't run in the family. After nearly 2 years of extreme pain discomfort and weight loss, I too was diagnosed with severe Crohn's disease in 2002 . I was scheduled to get part of my intestines removed, but I was so fearful of the surgery that I didn't follow through. Fast forward a few months later, and I actually started to improve. I decided to see another gastroentinologist and they diagnosed me with chronic gastroparesis and told me that was probably the best that I was ever going to get. Fast forward a few months later and I was fully recovered, and I haven't had any problems since. I've shared this experience with several people over the years. Apparently Gastroenterologists misdiagnose a lot.
  7. Picking up some LEMP's on my am frequencies. Definitely things trying to happen to the north from my viewpoint here in mechanicsburg. Sorry for the reflection in the picture.
  8. If nothing else, the cumulus out here are getting taller here this afternoon.
  9. Nws initially had me extremely excited with there talk of an EML surging this far east out ahead of a potent system.. By the next morning, I was pretty sure they'd picked up the wrong pipe. It seemed to me that the NWS was much more bullish, with their forecast than the SPC. The spc definitely, seemed to use more cautious wording in their forecast and I don't believe they ever mentioned anything about an EML.
  10. When you enter this part of town in Mechanicsburg, they literally have a plaque that says you are entering the homes of the Upper Class. They put it up in 2020 when everybody else was struggling. In the twenty years, i've been working at this home I've never even seen it used. I've been trying to get them to fork me out some money for some upper class lawn care but apparently, a new Maserati comes out every month.
  11. Apparently there was a sasquatch. sighting in the neighborhood that I'm working in. They said that it's wearing an orange shirt and a black hat.I looked everywhere.I think these people are full of s***.
  12. Hopefully, every thing turned out, okay with your friends. I was out catching bait with my son and didn't even peek at the radar yesterday. When I get home from work i'll look at storm paths and trajectories, but it doesn't seem like I was most likely looking at that cell.
  13. That idea hinged on robust support from the mid levels to aid in that lift . I don't think they're so sure that that will even happen to be honest.
  14. I'm pretty sure I took a picture of it sneaking by me In the rain from pinchot park.
  15. Spc hasn't been too impressed either. The only one that has any mention of an EML surge has been NWS and they're still holding on to that in their discussion, although I expect changes are coming.
  16. Light rain and thunder over head here at the beaver creek inlet at Pinchot park Edit for update Looks like I just got missed by something a little bette. Watched a couple forks come out of that lowering hiding in the rain.
  17. Anyways, i've talked about this for several years and no one's ever really responded to it. But i've used LEMPs for years while i'm driving and working to know what's going on out there. Think of Cipher in the Matrix. Once you've listened long enough, you can make out the kind of stroke, whether or not it's getting closer and intensity. In the context of storms and meteorology, LEMPs stand for Lightning Electromagnetic Pulses. [1] They refer to the powerful, disruptive electromagnetic waves naturally radiated into the atmosphere during a lightning discharge. While they may not pose a physical shock risk to humans directly unless struck by lightning, they can induce dangerous power surges that damage or disrupt electronic devices and power grids. [1, 2, 4] Because lightning activity and cloud-to-ground strikes are a primary indicator of thunderstorm severity and structure, meteorologists utilize artificial intelligence and ground-based sensors to analyze LEMPs to understand a storm's behavior
  18. Indeed A cell out there somewhere right now putting out some insane LEMPs. Tune in to an unused, a m frequency and listen you have to choose an a m.Frequency, that puts you between a tower and a storm. You'll know when you get there, you'll hear it.
  19. I'm picking up abnormally, strong lightning strokes on my Am radio stations. The strokes generally don't cause this much interference at such long distance.
  20. I completely agree, chances are this will be sporadic at best and that's perfectly fine. However, the one thing that all the top dogs have in common is the presence of the EML. It seems to be the main deciding factor between more of the same and a true widespread sig/svr weather when other enhanced indices are present.
  21. I'm not familiar with that outbreak. However, it was a major player in the 5/31/85 outbreak for western pennsylvania. An additional component to the magnitude of the thunderstorms on May 31st was the presence of a significant “elevated mixed layer” (EML) , a common supporting ingredient in severe weather across the northeastern U.S. (Banacos and Ekster). EMLs act as a ‘lid’ in the atmosphere, stopping convection from occurring unless the lid can be removed or sufficient lift is present. The strength of the front and the degree of instability lead to the erosion or breaking of the cap and thunderstorms exploded with violent results. This following two figures from Markowski show 1, the presence of the EML in the 7pm May 31st Pittsburgh sounding and 2, the formation and subsequent migration of the EML across the United States. The following hand-analyzed upper air maps (provided by NWS Cleveland) from the morning of the 31st highlight the significant area of dry air (yellow shading) or ‘cap’ coming into play. The forecaster even analyzed a dryline (the bumpy blue line through the central Plains) on the 850mb map, showing the leading edge of the dry air.
  22. If you dont believe me, then maybe you'll believe the american meteorological society. https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/wefo/25/4/2010waf2222363_1.xml
