mackerel_sky Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 10/28 Update: Ok, so for the 15th D^2 trip to Concord, we got: In the chase: Cold Rain Mack Isopycnic Burgertime Griteater On the bubble: Jburns Off: Packbacker Bevo Out: Metal Brick Widre Franklin Superjames Dacula Frazdaddy Falls Who else? Bonus Question: Where and when to meet? Burger has offered his place. I guess that depends on when folks get there, though. I am not very familiar with the Concord Mills area. I know they have a mall and Bass Pro Shop (and a race track), but that's about all I know. And somebody page Bevo! Jbuns will be on the fence until atleast the 8th, for the same reasons he doesn't look past the 7 day forecast, but would love to have him tag along.

mackerel_sky Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Time to iron out a few details. Are we going to go to the movie in the afternoon and dinner afterwards? I would vote for this. I just thought Concord would be easy and the mall is right off of the interstate and it has a movie theatre. I can't name all the restaurants around it, but there are quite a few. I couldn't tell you where another movie theatre is in CLT area, don't know it well at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Because he's using the G to the F to the S reanalysis Grit, I think the problem may be that he's doing 2014 differently from the other years. Did you notice that his 10/1 for 2014 is way down near that for 2009? Well, 2009 should be near the bottom as per Rutgers charts. However, 2014 started out quite high for both all of Eurasia and sub 60N Eurasia. Also, 2014 was near 2013 as of 10/1. They should be close together near the top. In other words, Mike has 2009 and 2013 on opposite extremes on 10/1. That looks right but 2014 should be on top, not the bottom. By the way, the general slope of the various years, including 2014, as well as specific days look pretty reasonable. It is just that the placement of 2014's line in relation to the others looks way off. So, I think that examining the 10/1 starting points may be a crucial part of figuring out what's wrong.

I'm down for a movie and then dinner...but is it really any fun to go to a movie as a group of pretty much strangers? It'll probably be by the looks of us 5 or 6.

burgertime Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Weather porn in October How the Euro looked at 12z if this were January there would be an extra 10 pages added to the forecast thread. It really is a classic dynamic looking storm. Would be very interesting if 00z ramps up the moisture associated with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshM Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I wouldn't hype it or dare I say "start a thread" *put the stones down jk*, But I wouldn't be surprised to see a dusting or a flizzard outside the mountains. Maybe even IMBY. I have enough credibility after I hyped the "big one" here in Feb. at my local grocery store where I could go in and start talking snow and get everyone spreading the word. It's fun to do, but I wouldn't use my powers for evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concord Mills is AMC theater... if it was Regal, I know most of the folks that work at them all in Gastonia/Charlotte (I'm working on a review blog, needed a OCD habit outside of winter). I could get us free popcorn (maybe drinks), they won't reserve a row for us tho. I also have a shi* ton of $2 off adult admission for regal.

I lived near Cramerton for 20 years Eastridge has been gone for many moons... the new (well not so new so) one is located at the end of Franklin Square. +1 on the fish! The Regal at Gastonia I'm friends with pretty much everyone there, give me some advance notice as to the time and movie, I might be able to get some free passes.

Should be up next week, by then there should be a consensus on time and date. If there's anything you need from me, just shoot me a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
