wolfie09 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 What do you guys think of this? Most stadiums that are built are part owner, part taxpayers .. Jerry Jones paid for like 60% of Dallas stadium for example.. Bills are trying for taxpayers to pay all according to this article..

BuffaloWeather Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 I don't believe municipal bonds are possible for a city like Buffalo. The stadium will be 50% tax payer money and the rest private if I had to guess. There is 0% chance they leave Buffalo. Its the first step in the negotiation process.

My guess is someone at the state level is leaking crap to the press to sway public opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like another Owner-extortion trial balloon being floated...is that you Al Davis? Most of you don't follow soccer but a few years ago, one of MLS's premier teams, Columbus Crew, almost moved to Austin. The fan, and community, outrage was so intense that it caused the league and Owner (a d-bag...no surprise there) to change plans. MLS granted an expansion franchise (Austin FC) to the Owner (and hefty expansion fee), and they started playing this year. The Crew were sold to a new Owner, i think a group headed by the Cleveland Browns football team Owner. Columbus won the MLS title again last season and just moved into a brand new stadium, which replaced America's first soccer-only stadium...a trend that has exploded in the US since Columbus built the first US soccer-only venue (for pro soccer). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also be happy if we didn't reach 90 again for the rest of the warm season. But, this is Syracuse here...... And you know we'll get the annual 90 degree heat wave for 5 days in September. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Even if the temps don't get that high the DPs will be.. Deep southwesterly flow will then take hold to start the work week with daytime highs surging into the mid and upper 80s, with some lower 90s not out of the question on Monday as heights aloft rise and 850 mb temps climb to the +18C to +20C range. Highs Tuesday will likely be a few degrees cooler as the next upper impulse impacts our region. Meanwhile surface dewpoints will also continue to increase from the low to mid 60s over the weekend to around 70 for the first part of next week, leading to an increasingly sultry if not oppressive feel to our airmass.

wolfie09 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Looking at the GFS it's a week full of mid 80s starting Monday (probably more like upper 80s, low 90s) lol Relief doesn't arrive until the following week thanks to a cold front..(subject to change) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be a record breaker out there. Ready for the inevitable switch from Nov-Mar. It's been driven by a record +PNA, check this out. Insane!

wolfie09 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Monday through Wednesday forecasted highs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Appearing more and more likely that Monday will be a very warm to hot and humid day with a ~590dm ridge cresting over the area and 850Ts nearing +20C. Have some slight chance diurnally driven PoPs currently in the forecast for Monday afternoon, however may end up even being able to eventually trim these out as there will be strong capping aloft if the timing of the upper ridge holds. Have highs nearing 90 across the lower terrain south of Lake Ontario, but these will also likely trend upward a few ticks if the this scenario comes to fruition. Humidity levels also start to approach the `oppressive` category with dew points solidly in the upper 60s to around 70 to start the work week. Will see temperatures potentially getting knocked back just a little for Tuesday and Wednesday as a couple shortwave disturbances try to knock back the ridge a little and also possibly trigger some rounds of convection. Despite daytime highs Tuesday and Wednesday just a bit lower than Monday, dew points will likely be in the low 70s across a good chunk of the area, with upper 60s dew point readings only found across the higher terrain. This will mean very warm and sultry conditions persisting through mid week, with uncomfortable sleeping weather continuing for the overnight periods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 You can check glacier national park webcams. You can see how bad the smoke is in some spots. https://www.nps.gov/glac/learn/photosmultimedia/webcams.htm I hope its clearer in 3 weeks, but never know. This is still worth it imo.

These seem like such the standard maps anymore... especially as we get into Fall. I see Syracuse is doing it's normal run at trying to be hotter than most on the east coast today. This time Buffalo and Niagara Falls are joining along. I really am shocked at how many days this summer have been hotter here than in the deep south. Does latitude matter anymore?

wolfie09 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Based on this analysis, Syracuse can potentially get up to 6.1 degrees warmer on average than its less-developed surroundings because of its urban heat island status. This index was calculated based on four main factors: albedo (reflectivity of surfaces), how much green space is present, the population and height of buildings in the city. In other words, the more non-reflective surfaces such as parking lots and roadways and the less greenery there is to act as shade, the warmer the temperature will be.

That one on the northern edge of Bville is ALWAYS warmest...they must use the same sensor SYR uses. Bville has some pretty open South-facing hills, so it wouldn't surprise me if some of that affects it. The 2 Bville stations closest to me are reading 79 and 80 currently. Who knows... I think some of it is Mother Nature trolling me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 I expect to see some glaciers when I go to glacier NP but most are gone, only 26 remain and some cannot be considered glaciers any longer. Either way I'll be seeing snow before ya'll this year. @TugHillMatt https://www.nps.gov/glac/learn/nature/glaciersoverview.htm At the end of the Little Ice Age around 1850, there were about 80 glaciers in what would eventually become Glacier National Park. In 2015, the last year with satellite imagery available, there were 26 named glaciers that met the size criteria of 0.1 km², nine fewer than in 1966. Of the 26 remaining in 2015, some may now already be too small to be considered glaciers. In addition to the roughly two dozen named glaciers that are monitored by the U.S. Geological Survey, the park also hosts several unnamed glaciers, about a dozen rock glaciers, and many snow fields. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeyes_Suck Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 @BuffaloWeather Hey on your fence when we won our lawsuit the judge gave them 30 days. We received our check postmarked on the 30th day. I think if they don't pay up you can go back to the judge and they can put a lien on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
