i am sofaking sick of the wind. please make it stop.

I was able to rebuild, but it happened again today. This time the trash can was more like 30 feet away. will rebuild again

because I don’t have gas. Well, I frequently have gas, but there is no gas service to my area. And no thanks on propane.

what’s with the friggin hurricane outside? it’s windier today than it was during the HWW last week. I could use some sun if for no other reason than to warm my house up a bit. Currently freezing as I await the HVAC guy come to give me a quote to replace my oil furnace

I was going to say that it looks like white ash, but wanted to wait to see @tamaracks answer in case I was wrong. those trees are toast. you will see some leaves next year, but will be mostly bare. Cut them down before they become a hazard. I had a dead one standing in my woods for the last couple of years, it finally came down in the wind the other day. the only way to stave off the ash borer beetle is preventative treatment before they invade. you are several years too late.

beer? like @Layman said, there are a ton of variables in any weather event. Most of us enjoy reading those types of posts so we can learn what it takes for something to go right, or to go wrong. if we didn't talk about them, then might as well just shut the forum down.

never saw 40 Year Old Virgin? Rum Well played

Go fuck yourself Pronounced Geena or Gyna?

I admit that I was wrong about the winds. I came home to find both trash cans blown over and moved about 10 feet. thankfully they were empty. I will rebuild

agreed-I guess my point regarding "a few" bad data points, is that if us weenies (and of course you Mets) notice that temp discrepancies, and they are not addressed for a long time, it's a problem like you said. I'll not beat a dead horse on this. I just think that unless the data being used is confirmed to be accurate (regular instrument calibration, etc), it shouldn't be used to used to support the CC debate (on either side) or for climate records. for all we know, a certain percentage of the data is skewed too low, which would mean that CC is way worse than we think.

you would think that NWS (or some scientist somewhere) would want accurate data to be able to accurately track the rate of CC. i understand that one ASOS is not the issue, but if we are not getting good data across the board, how can it be trusted? NOTE that this is not an argument for or against CC.

this is your brain on drugs?

WTF man, it is OK to turn on the heat if you are that cold. also, let your hair grow and for the love of all things holy, drink a 30 pack and down a couple cheeseburgers

i hope and i pray that everyone on the forum is staying safe from these horrific high winds. i have my family in the storm bunker riding this out

Taking the under, as always with “high” wind events

Now do DAW lol

FYP

early? it's been winter for <10 days. what time did that someone start drinking this morning?

I plan to go to work. And probably get drunk after

thanks for posting a 384 hour map that is guaranteed to verify.

she dipping into the egg nog first thing? Bloody marys? Mimosas?

Surely you are not expecting a response from the 5ppd troll. unless there is a 300+ hour map showing a torch somewhere, he doesn’t post

surprise up here. Roads got slick quickly and for the most part people were driving in control, which is somewhat unusual. of course the grannies were driving 30 under the speed limit but better than smashing into me I guess

you aren't seeing the tiniest snow flakes ever right now? ground is coated here (barely)
