  1. I don’t think anyone has enough UK data to develop accurate snow maps. Euro probably also to a lesser degree
  2. He can’t help himself. As astute as he is it’s a siren...that can’t be ignored
  3. Pauly that tidbit map takes sleet and gives it 10:1 which I this setup seems worthless
  4. -40C in Hudson’s bay at h85 in deep clown range on the op
  5. It actually doesn’t during the day and evening On 12/31. Pointless to worry about it but verbatim that’s pretty wintry.
  6. New Year’s Eve day and night cold and wintry. Thankfully my party is at neighbors across the street..lol.
  7. That’s quite the nod to the euro on gfs.
  8. I see sub normal week of 1/13 and week of 1/20. Above normal week of 1/6 and 1/27.
  9. Interesting. Growing up just outside of NYC I listened to 2 stations. Country and soul. Frankie Crocker for the latter
  10. Holiday cheer hangovers left and right this morning....
  11. Sorry dews-people paying more attention brought dendy’s contribution to our attention.
  12. Gotta give Dews credit though-he coined the word “tanuary”. Looks like that moniker sticks for future reference.
  13. “The best part of waking up is Baileys in your cup...”
  14. It’s ok....he meant December not January.....
  15. That’s the thing, My hours are long, often starting early with late meetings week in and week out. The biggest thing in retirement is normalizing and catching up on sleep. In the old days, I’d wait for the euro on week days. No more but that changes next winter unless I decide to do something 1-2 days per week and even then I’d go from 5 on 2 off to 2 on 5 off.
  16. I was going to go to age 75. But they always say you’ll know when it’s time and it hit me around Labor Day. So I’ll retire 11.5 years past my full benefit time. Having lost everything in my 30 years ago divorce-I had to start from scratch again in my early 40s. So it all worked out and I had the good fortune of staying healthy. I’ve been beyond the cap for years so colas never gave me full benefit. And extras I negotiated don’t count towards retirement calculation. I put max and Catch up away though so it’s all good.
  17. So you say no snow for the next 27 days?
  18. Lol....I’m going out FERS with 37 years, 7 months of service.
  19. EPS is pretty consistent on some really cold air here 11-15.
  20. He really is a great guy. I went to an info seminar on a new benefit we (federal employees) had the option of purchasing. Everyone had to flash their ID and the guy ahead of me has one from NOAA. I look at the name it’s DRAG! I blurt out-Walt Drqg and he wheels around with a look of who the fuk could know me here.... It was right before the 2002-03 winter and he had some great insight. Nice man, hopefully enjoying his retirement. I’m a bit older....(maybe 2-4 years) and will be joining him in retirement in 6 months.
