Torch Tiger Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 6 hours ago, mreaves said: He doesn’t fit the cookie cutter image and sound the industry wants and pushes. Country seems like it’s where rock was in the 80’s. It pushes acts that fit the formula. That’s how we got hair metal. There are a lot of good country acts, like Hippy pointed out. You just don’t always find them on country radio as much as they should be. Modern radio country music today, is really pop/rock with a hillbilly twang. Of course that started with 70's Waylon Jennings, BW Stevenson, or early 80s Alabama (huge crossover, equal soft rock/country) but they were at least rooted in pure country. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the band I always wanted to see live when I was young but never was able. My only complaint about current country music that I run across on the radio is the amount of autotuning is odd to me for that genre in particular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Finally ... a hot Euro solution in the east. Not sure I trust it, but D8-10 would be near 90 eventually to 96 through the period. So being that it's D8+ it's obviously not very dependable. It's there nonetheless and I don't recall +20C+ SW heat release air ever being modeled to expand into across the mid lat continent, yet this summer. The GFS won't give up on the trough in that range, so no go. Instead sending new cold fronts ... It has persistence on its side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon Tip Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Interesting... now that I look a the GFS' 850 mb synoptics over the 06z run it's corrected pretty significantly hotter during that time range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean all genres are using auto tuning or even worse backing tracks live; horrible trends.

Nope, part of the reason I am back in New England is hurricanes and prep that was required. In 8 years I have gone through, Matthew, Irma, worked Michael in the Pan Handle, Dorian (Sat 60 miles off shore from my town) and Ian….It’s more than just watching the wind!

Those tall trees were probably once protected from other trees around them. Newer construction diverting runoff towards the woods edge, combined with a ton of rain to begin with. A kid probably could have pushed them over if they tried hard enough.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting... yeah, that would make the severe criteria for wind perhaps lower than normal before that kind of impact begins to occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
