IWXwx Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Although I usually don't have much to complain about during fall, I figured we should have a place to banter.

RogueWaves Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I just like the theme. Systems strengthening in our sub. West and eastward too. That run may be the old GooFuS doing it's thing, but there have been a lot of wound-up storms already, and most, other than the MT and ND bliz's haven't really even had cold air infusion going for them. I think it's a good sign going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a while since the last one that actually delivered the trifecta of significant impacts - svr, winter and synoptic wind.

buckeye Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 So I re-activated my wxbell subscription... have to say the new model graphics are much improved....very nice! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Buckeye renewing his subscription is like the unofficial kickoff of winter.

BuffaloWeather Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I'm back from exploring Peru, a magical place in which the elevation kills you. Also contracted a parasite that shut me down for 2 days down there. Otherwise a fantastic trip! Decided against going to rainbow mountain due to advice on here!

fyrfyter Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 We were supposed to get actual rain, around an inch. We got 0.03”. Some much for the dryness going away. I fully expect the leaves to turn brown and fall. No colors this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when they updated it, but wxbell is now showing the 06z/18z Euro runs now. Nice addition. They're also continuing to tweak the model graphics, as they've just recently added 3hr increments for P-type/thickness to the Euro. EDIT: And now I see they have added hourly maps for many of the parameters, like surface temp, etc. Very nice! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 I'm liking this early potential. It's usually a month from now before I get excited about tracking a storm. It also brings all of the knowledgeable posters out of the woodwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just happened to be doing some research on Greek language and that popped up. I had been reading and posting here earlier, so I already had your screen name in my head. I'm the one who should be apologizing. I had no idea that it also is a Hungarian word. I hope you will forgive me. I just assumed that it was an inside joke.

I know just enough about the weather to be dangerous. There is not much seriousness in my DNA. I really am sorry to call you out on something that in fact had a different meaning. What is really a coincidence is that I used to call my oldest daughter (she's an adult now) piglet, because she loves pigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing that I know quite little about the weather, I strive to maintain my standing through other means. No worries though, I learned something new today.

beavis1729 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 While it will be chilly in these parts over the next few days, some incredibly cold air has plunged into the Rockies and western plains. Denver, as an example... 10/28: New record cold max of 21. Old record was 30 in 1925. 10/29: New record cold max of 19. Old record was 25 in 1993. 10/30: Record cold max is 18 in 2002; record low is 7 in 1991. Forecast is 19/3, so a record low will probably be set. 10/31: Record low is 10 in 1991. Forecast low is -3 (!). All-time October monthly low is -2 on 10/29/1917. Normals this time of year are around 60/30...so there will be 3 days in a row with -40 departures on the high temps. It looks like Cheyenne WY will smash their October monthly record low too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
