Asking for some indoor humidity readings.  Recently bought two mini hygrometers.  It was reading 10%, then rose to 18% when I turned on a small humidifier right next to it.  

That's very low!  Mine reads 25% right now.

For the summer, try to keep it under 50% as that is the threshold for dust mites....

Maybe I worded it wrong.  NJ will have more than 10 tornadoes.  I'd be shocked at only 4. 

Frightening either way. Does an El Niño or La Niña pattern impact tornado chances, or is it too random or specific to a point in time? (I think May is our highest chances at seeing tornadoes in New Jersey, if I recall correctly)

a second peak in fall too.

I think they're more likely in la ninas.

I honestly really enjoyed this winter, especially in relation to the past several. That said, I’m truly someone who loves cold weather - it makes me feel alive and invigorated. I’m an avid winter hiker and outdoor enthusiast, my wife and I mainly travel in the winter to go to snowy places and get outside (injury reasons for both of us sadly are why we don’t ski / snowboard).

That said, I’m really earnestly disappointed we couldn’t cash in on one big region wide storm. It did feel like it was our time, it felt like that last threat was the one, and I allowed myself to get invested even vividly recalling how many recent rug pulls we’ve endured. 

It sucks. But at least we had a winter that felt like winter, and snowfall that stayed around and didn’t generally melt the day after in 60 degrees. 

Hopefully it’s a sign of things to come going forward if the PDO begins to relax, but we still definitely need Pac help (that damn jet needs Xanax). 

Was a pleasure.

Hopefully, we can get back to some semblance of a benchmark storm track in the coming years. It’s hard to believe that January 2022 was our last big snowstorm month. I don’t mind a warm winter as long as we get some decent events. This was the scene from my old hometown back in January 2022. Haven’t been back there in a few years but hear from some friends that it’s doing pretty well.
