By now, it's all I can do to NOT crack open a beer or grab a glass of wine while supposedly working! But I do have a Keurig to keep me going in the morning, hahaha! I had my first virtual meeting today and it’s going to be a mess getting older teachers to do “distance learning.” I think I’ll be ok, but I may naive.

Agreed! Same here...I fully expect at least a month if not more. You do what you can...it's working out OK, I've got my work laptop and access to whatever for the most part that I need. But I won't lie that my attention and amount of stuff I get done isn't at the same level. Mostly just from being concerned and all that of course, plus just being at home. And yeah, everything is all in good fun! Right now, humor and my photography keep me going for the most part. Though at least now it's getting warmer so I can get back to riding my bike too to get out. We can all use some good laughter through all this, at least!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the home front, while letting the hh buzz die down (thanks, @C.A.P.E.), we got the cars cleaned and more importantly, I got the two new (used) 20 gallon kettles cleaned. Waiting for the pump and whirlpool arm from ups, and then it’s brew time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Ok so decided to check out Tiger King on Netflix tonight. First episode down and wondering what the hell we are watching.

arlwx Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Shoot- 39 banter pages and only 8 obs pages? lol There's still some nice cherry blossom blooms on local streets and at the Giant (at least as of yesterday). Unfortunately, the first dandelions started blooming too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino16 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 That hasn’t been fun lately in Virginia. Too far south for any cold, and too far north for any of the thunderstorms! And, stuck at home. I’m not going crazy. That happened awhile ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long version: The climate is shifting but you’re using the wrong indicators. What happened this year wasn’t out of the normal. Actually a year like this was due. Since 1950 there have been 6 years with less snow here than this year and 7 with less than 15”. Right now I’m somewhere around 12”. That’s an avg of one sub 15” year every 7.5 years. But it’s been since 2002 since we had one. That’s 17 years. We were very due. Plus many of those awful years were pattern matches to this year. This result happened every 10 years or so even in the old climate when this type of pattern happened. When we start to see anomalously low snowfall results in what used to be snowier patterns that would be a better sign of climate change than what you are referencing. Short version: you are an idiot 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
