AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Neutral ENSO next year is probably warm. The NAO doesn't shift like that. El Nino and it's probably a cold Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching them for over 40 years let me tell you there is no hope. They will crush your dreams each and every time. Only suggestion I have is to drink and heavily. It will help you get past the disappointment. Me, I get to listen to my Father-In-Law lord over me about how wonderful his Penguins are. Well, when the Caps can't get past the 2nd round because of the Penguins...and the Penguins have won back to back Stanley Cups... lol Oh, and I'm a Penguin fan btw just in case you didn't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been with this team since the very beginning when I'd go to games in those extra lean early years at the Cap Centre just a couple miles from my then house. It's going to happen one year, and when it does, it will happen in an unlikely and even lucky way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDM Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Did anyone see the article on Accuweather.com about the latest dates of recorded snow in various cities? Gotta love the part about the system that brought measurable snow to IAD on 28 April, 1898 - a full 5 years before the Wright Bros flew at Kitty Hawk (I'm from Dayton, Oh btw). Hard to imagine such a snafu gets by even cursory editing... From Accuweather.com - https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/when-is-the-latest-snowfall-for-these-major-us-cities/70004752 "Since official record keeping began however, the latest measurable snowfall has occurred on April 28, 1898, when 0.5 of an inch of snow fell. While the same system also brought snow to both Washington-Dulles Airport and the city of Baltimore, it is interesting to note that Washington-Dulles later received an inch of snow on April 12, 1973, while downtown Washington and Baltimore received less than 0.1 of an inch.

smokeybandit Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Dulles sure was ahead of its time I guess. I've read that the Silver Line actually existed out to the airport back then, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read that the Silver Line actually existed out to the airport back then, too. Haha - Probably had problems with funding back then as well. Just as with the Silver Line and Metro as a whole... On the Metro, can you imagine if the benefit to the region if they put in a ring line on the Metro? Anything that would relieve the number of bridge crossings for the collective masses commuting across the Potomac would be a stark improvement. (no intent to open up the proverbial Pandora's Box here). In an effort to help out, I did send some feedback on their typo form. Not holding my breath for a response. Back in the "good ole days" the proof readers would have caught it. If not them, the typesetters for sure. Heaven forbid it even got that far. In today's electronic age, everyone is empowered yet accountability is muted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back after the derecho my house temperature upstairs climbed into the 90s and I was the only one in my family who could sleep in the house. I was in my element! Mid 80's??? Is that even possible in the winter? Two things interrupt my sleep; congestion from allergies and heat. Unfortunately, a lot of times they happen together. If it was possible, I'd order up a room temperature of 60 year round and no pollen or ragweed, but the temperature is probably about 65 in the winter and 78 in the summer. I try to control my allergies with otc's, which are great compared to 20 - 30 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should check out Wilmington, Charleston, and Savannah. You'd love it there. All have great views, beaches closes by, and beautiful weather most of the year. Add that to historic southern charm and they're pretty magical places. *Edit* And legit risk of tropical every year. (Especially Wilmington, but all more than DC obviously) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
