Hoth Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I agree with your general point, but what is going to average 9% for 45 years? The broader stock market. Historically, the S&P has returned around 12% per annum if you go back over 70 or 80 years. Granted, it's a much more mature economy now, so you probably wouldn't expect that kind of return going forward, barring some highly disruptive technological advances that squeeze out incredible productivity. But 8-9% is a fairly common estimate among securities analysts for average long term CAGR of the stock market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 AWT In this first week in January, the service hydrologist at the Taunton MA forecast office received a message from a water resources member of the State of Connecticut asking why Connecticut has been in drought conditions for the past few years. It turns out that one of the primary sources of precipitation reports being used comes from the tipping gauges from the area airports’ ASOS Thanks to your observations, we were able to identify an issue with the under-reporting of precipitation amounts by automated sensors in southern Connecticut which has been affecting the Drought Analysis produced by NOAA for some time now. We'll be working on resolving that issue over the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoth Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Random, but was reading about the 1899 blizzard and the incredible cold that came with it. Anyone know or hear of an estimate for how strong that high was? Hard to imagine Tallahassee going sub-zero. Edit: Nevermind. Found Kocin's paper on it.

HIPPYVALLEY Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 37/37 now off a high of 42F. Never really sniffed that forecast high of 52. Probably about 70% snow cover on the N side of Greenfield, less in town. Never doubt the resiliency of 3" of sleet. 1.55" today. Models nailed the qpf here, why can't that happen in snow storms? Lol.
