Monken leaving is not a good thing.

He wasn't saying that--he left out a comma (or maybe a dash?), lol He meant "The best thing going for us--Monken--is most likely leaving"

I’m not sure if you misread my post, but what you said makes absolutely no sense. I guess I didn’t put a comma after Monken so you misunderstood what i was saying. I’m saying Monken is the best thing we have going for us, and now he is gone.

A grammarian case study: Punctuation matters!

@Eskimo Joe can anyone who has vested weather interest participate in the co-op program? What are property requirements & things like that? I'm just curious since I know you've played a big part locally.

The co-op program is fading it seems. A lot of the co-op people were farmers that are aging out the system. You could reach out to NWS State College and ask them if you could become one. Another program worth investigating is CoCoRAHS.

I sit on an acre here, wasn't sure if there were property reqs or if one is nearby they wouldn't need the redundancy. I am familiar with CoCo for the most part. You might know him, we knew Brad terpguy who was a big cocorahs advocate.

There is no minimum space requirement. State College WFO may want/need a site there. I would encourage you to reach out them. As a Co-Op person in Baltimore County (ID: RSTM2) I wholeheartedly endorse the program.

Ah, so inaccurate thermometers are the new underwater volcanoes. 

Its a lost cause. It’s like the “do your own research” people.  They find some rando online saying some BS and think “I found something every scientist and expert missed and now I know more about this than everyone who do this as a profession”. Good luck arguing with that level of monumental stupidity.
