Lol, yeah, that won't go well at all. Kinda like the cesspool political sub-forum where Dem/Rep bicker all day and nothing is accomplished...then they start the next day w/the same result.

Maybe just let it be...

65F/DP 64F....feeling a bit better outside.

 

sometimes both sides have to realize the truth and get over their differences. I gave them a way out to approach their differences without all of us reading the results. Everyone is in this forum because of how the weather affects them personally. Climatologists are no different, they just need a different room to play in.  Lol

Nut job, Psycho killer been spotted in Phoenixville, PA....shaven. A area I know well.

Reminds me of..

I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me, I'm a real live wire
Psycho Killer
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away, oh-oh-oh
Psycho Killer
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ay-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya, ooh
 
Good song though...
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

    

I had KYW on when the "breaking" news came in this morning.  Talk about busting through a "perimeter".  That's almost 30 miles away. :axe: 

This cluster of showers have me now up to 0.14" at post time.  Low earlier was 67 and am currently 69 with light rain and dp 69.

Not for me...10 miles away.

Finally cashing in, stuff outside getting wet. 67F/DP 66F

I don’t understand why it’s so difficult catching this guy. He was in prison. What do all male prisoners want? Women and food. The cops should have stuck a topless blonde out in the wood holding a pizza and 6-pack. This guy would have come running out of hiding in a second!

Needs to be a 12 pack and a hoodie....otherwise, game off.

I agree with this. I also think we can all agree that you do have maybe just a wee little bit of bias in your data? No? You are the only one here consistently saying "Oh, look how cold it is here in East Nantmeal compared to everywhere else! Climate change and global warming are obviously false!" I mean, you haven't actually said that (have you?) but I've been here long enough to discern that that's obviously your meaning.

You're at a much higher elevation than many of the rest of us (this has been pointed out to you numerous times). Nearby weather stations at lower elevations (where most of the rest of us live) do not reflect your observations, as perfectly calibrated as they may be. As crass as this exchange may have been, how do you reconcile your empirical deviations with nearby stations that you have not cherry-picked to support your claims? (I will not throw any more graphs at you; I've already done so, and you did not provide any meaningful feedback.) Or are we all to believe that all of our observations are complete trash because our equipment isn't all NIST/NOAA certified?

We have actual meteorologists (and other scientists, myself included) on this sub, and it'd be a real shame if we lost their participance due to the obstinance of some members to recognize how science actually works. You don't find data to fit your hypothesis. You evolve your hypothesis over time because of the data, even if it means you are initially wrong. Climate change is real, sir, and no amount of shouting "East Nantmeal is getting colder!" is going to change that.

I'm done arguing with you and have decided to put you on ignore. You are an outlier here in this forum. Take that as you will, and please do enjoy your sweet, insulated life atop East Nantmeal; I've driven through it many times, and it truly does look like and sound like a lovely place to live. For now.

*********************

AS AN OBS. Hoping this heat wave breaks tomorrow. From my shitty back yard weather station:

Cheers and goodnight everyone. Let's all put this to bed.

Thanks Mike! appreciate the thoughts!! I will continue to only post the facts about all of the stations we have access to here in Chester County

"Hi Mike...not the best post in Ray's history....I hope he apologizes to the forum. We should never ever devolve on a weather forum to the level of name calling and personal insults like that. I think we can all agree on that!"

OMG, 45 years of data gathering for others to enjoy and 60+ years living on this earth- crunching numbers to prove a climatological point is not just what weather is really about. Enjoying the actual daily weather change in our atmosphere by mother nature and how it affects or daily activities is what this specific thread is all about.   Weather is not just about numerology, statistics and for climatology records to drive home personal viewpoints of someones's hypothesis of local or regional climate change, its all about the personal experience of the specific weather event itself.  As a retired physical geographer with an atmospheric science degree, I can tell you what personally drives me- living through any type of weather event  that mother nature can throw at me and being able to share to  my friends, family and other colleagues my thoughts and personal experiences of that particular weather event. I guess that is why Mt. Holly wishes to hear the opinions of each storm event  from an official weather spotters like me and not just precip/temp data. Fighting over number crunching is ridiculous and pointless unless you are true climatologist  wanting to prove any type of hypothesis.  I would suggest  Ray or you start your own thread on local or regional climatology and leave the bickering of crunching numbers in that specific thread to prove a personal local climate change hypothesis, such as elevation or even ALBEDO dependencies---lol .  Thanks  guys

Great post!!! Thank you!!!! I did move this to PM but Ray chose to bring it back on here - I do apologize for that!!!

Oh I know it's close to you but meant it was "30 miles away" from "the perimeter" around Chadds Ford that had been widely reported by the local LEO that they were "certain" he was "within".  Aside from obviously being a "survivalist"-by-experience, could be he is getting some "help".

Am still getting light stuff, which is probably best for "soaking in" and not gully-washer runoff, and am up to 0.18" as of post time (1.25" 2-day total).  Temp is 69 with dp 69, with occasional steamy windows. :lol:

The first 9 days have been among the warmest starts to September we have ever seen with Glenmoore recording their 6th warmest start (67 years of data) and Western Chester with their 13th warmest (130 years of data) and at Phoenixville 23rd warmest (131 years of data) Many areas across the county have picked up over 0.5" of rain so far today with more on the way. Temps look to fall to well below normal levels by the end of the work week.
Records for today: High 99 (1897) / Low 38 (1975) / Rain 1.74" (2015)

Sounds like they found the convict's abandoned van here in East Nantmeal....

Just heard that on KYW.  :o

At least I know where that is. :P

Sun did come out and so far I have made it to 80 as a high and there's some angry-looking cumulus to the west with a temp of 79, and dp 73,

Late response:

Amazing, I think they had 400+ "personnel" searching for him in the "perimeter" and a "war room" w/tech galore and can't find him? And screwed up the search zone?

I could have gathered 5 guys and a couple cases of beer and found him.

His latest smug non bearded photos really pissed me off...
