I had to take Calc 1 & 2 for my environmental science degree, but never used it for anything.

Expand  

I've used it from time to time for some calculations for testing but mostly use mechanics and strength of materials formulas, which I guess is calc based, but I can't recall using derivative equations in 30 years, other than maybe a few times

Lol...the calc part was a waste for me.  Gawd those classes were hard.  Glad I got to take stats and Fortran for math requirements after those. 

My favorite undergrad classes were glacial and Pleistocene geology, Hydro, Anything with Dr. Eby, who is still there...

After the Perfect Storm my oceanology class spent 3 weeks examining eroded dunes layers. Learned a ton about overwash and glacial layers

Y'all realize we have a banter thread, right? 

Just logged on and read 3 pages of which maybe 10% was storm related. 

Lets get back on topic a bit. Dead zone is over anyway.

Appropriate since this storm will most likely keep me from getting to the Bob Weir and Phil Lesh gig at the Wang Center Wednesday night.

Best part of dead zone discussion, predictions  what a model will do.

Like the Battle of Mohács. 

And, of course, on the topic at hand, I wonder whether a slightly further east solution resulting in higher totals or the recently projected mix/paste would be more impactful in recovering areas of SNE. Winds don’t look as potent as the last system, but the weight of wet snow brings the threshold of what it takes for winds to be damaging down quite a bit.

The first few hours of this run are beautiful, with Friday’s gyre whirling to the east and our storm getting together in the plains

Jan 11 was an interesting storm where this area got 14-18" while areas E of here in the Quabbin hill towns got less and then more again from HubbaDave to ORH.

Looks like so far everything is wanting to shift southwest some wrt to the main players through 27.

Holy heck look at that Vort max

[ORH_wxman]

That southern vort is dragging its heels...that will push everything east of 18z if it doesn't recover.

26 here in that one, despite dipping into the dry slot for an hour in the middle of the night.

Southern s/w little weaker on the nam, Probably going to go a couple tics east this run
