Western Albemarle streams are super low as well , despite substantial more rainfall east of the mountains.. I think that the spine of the Blue Ridge from 33 down to the Tye River headwaters in Nelson have been missing the consistent rain as well - that's been just a few miles to the east... With the exception being the eastern slopes of Afton - they have done great just like Charlottesville...

"...But what I have also found is a connection in the stratosphere. The image below shows a warmer winter stratosphere and a weaker/disrupted Polar Vortex, following a slow hurricane season. This does not imply that hurricane season directly impacts the Polar Vortex, but there is likely a common El Niño factor at play that also includes the Pacific impacts and atmospheric waves. With this in mind, I loaded and plotted the latest forecast data for the stratosphere. Below you can see the Polar Vortex wind forecast, which is how we estimate its strength. In this latest seasonal data, we can clearly see an interesting deceleration and a potential disruption trend starting in early January..."

Had the windows open this morning, woke up to low rumbles of thunder and heavy rain. Was dope as fuck.

John what do you think about AI replacing climate change as an extinction level threat? All the big AI execs have said it's very likely that AI advances will mean the end of humanity within a decade. That's why I laugh at these projections for 2050 and 2100. When very likely humanity won't even be around that long. And if we are around we either won't be living on this planet or we will have geo engineered it into unrecognizability. We will be living in climate controlled domes it will rain if and when we want it or need it to and the temperatures will be strictly controlled. We are already conducting cloud seeding on a historic scale with RAIN MAKER and spraying particles into the upper atmosphere to reduce incoming solar radiation is on the way. We'll probably ship off some of thid extra water and water vspor via space elevators to Mars and space colonies to control sea level rise and reduce the strongest greenhouse gas we have. Water vapor! We'll go from 70 percent water to 50 percent water.

Let me guess....he favors big time blocking.

No...2 years removed, approaching geomagnetic peak.

41.9 this AM.

80s in October and November can be very nice when it's not humid. I'm one of those people who only wants it to be cold when it's snowing. That Fall was my favorite of all time, dry and warm!! No heat until November 13th! Water vapor is a greenhouse gas far worse than carbon dioxide we need to get the excess off the planet somehow. Siphon it to Mars and space colonies along with rising sea levels =/ It feels like we should be in the 90s with all that red! It must have been much more extensive in an actual hot September like we had in 1983! No I was shivering this morning. Having my heat at 65 definitely wasnt high enough so 70 it is! Was I colder than anywhere in New Jersey? One of my sensors read 39.6 and two others read 42.1. The highs ranged from 67.2 to 67.8. Definitely my coldest birthday and the first one that required heat! Water vapor a far worse greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. I enjoyed that at the time but flooding rainfall gets real old real fast. Im glad I only got a third of an inch with this last system. 1944 hurricane was far more historic than 1938 hurricane in many ways and came at the tail end of a historic summer. I love this tweet he calls out water vapor as a major greenhouse gas and it's actually much worse than carbon dioxide. Floods are one of nature's worst disasters. My idea of removing a quantity of water off the planet is looking better all the time. It will likely happen as space colonies will need them and we can use space elevators that Japan is now developing to transport them. It would solve the sea level rise problem too. ABC was doing a series of reports on RAIN MAKER a weather engineering company that is now doing cloud seeding on a massive scale like never before with silver iodine to bring rainfall to drought stricken areas. That might help us too as seeded systems would lose a quantity of moisture before making it to us. Consider it redistribution of rainfall

This winter is already delivering anger and we haven’t reached the equinox yet.

So far so good. A nor'easter at the wrong time can turn that on a dime.

Just sat down with some pizza and was going to do some reading or a lecture video but this is more fun. Fight time LFG!!!!!!

It's interesting that the records set on the 2nd and 6th are included but not the 3rd I wonder why? Either way you can see from the sheer number of records set in that historic heatwave that was a heatwave of unparalleled proportions the kind of long duration heat wave we simply do not see anymore. The last time we had a something like that was in 1993. What other records can you find from that historical heatwave? Im shocked that Mount Pocono got into the mid 90s as early as late May and as late as mid August, was that entire summer just one long massive heatwave? Also both Newark and Boston set records, why didn't Central Park? About elevation, the Poconos are a Plateau not a mountain range so I can't see its elevation being much less. I actually developed something called relative temperature as an analog to relative temperature to convert temperature to sea level. 103 would be around 114 at sea level. I'm perfectly fine with accepting that because I know climate change is nuanced especially in the East. Our heatwaves have become shorter and we have less extremely high record temperatures. The average temperature rise is mostly driven by higher minimum temperatures, not higher maximums. I've had my heat running for about a month already and it's not a pleasant feeling. I would have thought climate change would have occurred faster but here we are. Most people enjoy heat much more than cold so we dont see climate change as an altogether bad thing the way we view tobacco causing cancer. Obviously it's not a good thing but there are some positives to it like not spending a thousand plus on heating every month in the winter when it impacts us the most and not having to use the heat in the summer which I had to use starting in August.

9/15 12Z CFSv2 consistent with 0Z run having AAM on Sep 19th go to a historical extreme level (+4+):

1.29" here today. It was yet another cool, dreary, wet day.

Fuck you trumper!

58° here. Uniform temperatures.

I saw $4.59 for gas today up here and almost passed out, lol. 57F to keep it on topic.

lol

Get a grip on life . Wow Do you have a budget ? Do you have someone that can understand and manage your finances? With this nasty , ban / suspension worthy tantrum , it seems like you probably do not . Recommendation.. find someone

Right? Bunch of whiners. $5,000 Doge check plus another $5,000 Republican vote rebate and most folks should be able to afford heat for at least half the winter.
