Whoa don’t forget squirrel weight fluctuations, paper wasp nest height, caterpillar color decoding and the like.

Man I thought you were a pro… It’s the white (bald) faced hornet nest height. Not paper wasps. That’s why they pay us the big bucks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to continue to use this oak as a forecasting tool. Despite being in a wide open area, 60ish MPH winds, 5 degrees and soon to be January 1st. It still has a majority of it's leaves hanging on. No snow until a majority of the leaves fall off... Side note, pretty cool to see the ceiling down to about 500 ft here. Clear in the valley, but the top of the hill is socked in dense fog and barely visible. It has been slowly sinking down all morning. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baroclinic Zone Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Maybe there is a correlation to the number of deer road fatalities and snowfall. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, kudos to so you for what I think is the first "thread the needle" post of the year! It's threading in both ways. It's very marginally strong enough. And then suppose it turns out that way, it's marginal whether it is close enough. If those two were not enough, it marginal in the thermodynamics. We have to thread three needles there. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As poor as the LR looks, I’m going to use how many road kills I see and forecast off of that moving forward 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t control it. Hopefully something later next week. Same here. The older and higher I get, the less worry I have. I’ll still melt over the next KU bust though. It’s the overall tenure of the season that I have a lot more patience with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
