From Meteorologist Mike Masco... FWIW FULL BLOCK SETTING UP AS WE HEAD INTO DECEMBER? The latest European weekly run is flashing a very intriguing signal: a robust ridge building along the West Coast, arcing through Alaska, and extending all the way toward Greenland. That kind of alignment is classic high-latitude blocking, and it typically forces the entire jet stream to buckle south. When that happens, colder air is free to spill into the eastern half of the U.S. while storm systems ride along a more energized southern branch. What’s even more interesting is the early suggestion of a Southeast ridge trying to flex at times. That feature can act as a pivot point—sometimes enhancing moisture return, sometimes redirecting storm tracks, and occasionally helping to “trap” systems along the East Coast. It’s the kind of tug-of-war setup that can produce some very dynamic nor’easter development if timing lines up. Not to sound cliché because it feels like we say this every year… but based on the weeklies, this is legitimately one of the strongest early-season pattern setups I’ve seen at this range. If the blocking verifies, December could open with a bang. I'll mention this a little on PIX 11 News Morning Show between 7-10am and over the weekend.

Major stratospheric warming event going on.. usually means in about 2 to 3 weeks cold train coming! We will see!!

06z GFS still has the Nov 18-20 event. Doesn't look like anything big but Something interesting to watch

Great song!!!!

I personally try to stay away from politics.. never good lol someone always gets offended lol

This is off topic a bit but ... Today makes 50 years to the day when 29 people died when a massive storm near the great lakes sank the Edmund Fitzgerald... The Sinking: The freighter was sailing through a severe storm with high winds and waves when it disappeared from radar. The exact cause of the sinking remains a mystery, but some believe the ship may have broken apart after hitting the bottom or suffered a structural failure. Loss of Life: All 29 men on board, including captain Ernest M. McSorley, perished in the disaster. No survivors were found. The Wreck Site: The ship now rests in two large pieces on the bottom of Lake Superior, over 500 feet deep. The wreck is considered a maritime grave, and diving without a permit is illegal. Memorials and Legacies: The ship's bell was recovered in 1995 and is now on display at the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum. Gordon Lightfoot's 1976 song brought national attention to the tragedy and became a famous folk ballad. There have been other memorials, including a memorial swim, to honor the crew. Improvements in weather forecasting and safety technology have made a similar disaster less likely today, though the risk is not zero.

Yesss I'd love to see another 2013-2014 winter!!!!

This is a banter thread so people basically talk about anything and everything lol

Amen brother!!!!

Well fellow Orioles fans....Well I just heard orioles owner Rubenstein earlier today on the radio(105.7 the fan) Saying that Mike Elias " has no financial limits whatsoever to get the players the Orioles need to win a championship. " He also said. There's plenty of money to get free agents!! Whether Elias does anything or not is yet to be seen. But.. I do think the way Rubenstein sounded, that he wants Elias to spend!! If Elias don't spend i think. Rubenstein will get someone else who will!!

That's funny as hell !!!!

Trade: Titans are sending edge rusher Dre’Mont Jones to the Ravens for a conditional 5th-round pick, per sources. 4.5 sacks in 4 games definitely a good pick up for ravens!!!!

BWI: 21.8" DCA: 16.2" IAD: 22.8" RIC: 8.4" Tiebreaker SBY: 9.2 MBY: 20.5

Me neither. But I'd be happy if the Orioles just made it to the world series! Lol

They don't call him The Amazing Rick for nothing folks!! Lol
