Going to be a beautiful day with highs around 50 imby. Lots of snow to melt. Astro Spring today, so might as well get it going.

As an increasing frequency of observation, I argue that's been occurring less in summers over recent decade(s). There's a plausible reason for it too. I believe there is an emerging resonance feedback ( constructive interference) between the perennial rest state of the flow over the N/A continent, and the CC-related augmentation of heat potential. First, the perennial rest state pattern across N/A features a flat ridge tendency in the west that downstream flattens out to an impression of trough in the east, before the flow escapes out into the Atlantic. That means that at all times there is an exerting for ridging in the west, but to the chagrin of "stop" and "shits" emoji wielding assholes on the forum. It's just that it's not 50/50. It's like a 42/58 thing heh. Second, warm air means higher heights. Now, when where there is heat in the W and SW, that means you have to combine those aspects - such that this resuls a resonant feedback ( constructive interference) between the fixed background state and the occurs of the warm weather's wave function passing through. In short, the feed back enhances itself when that duality super-imposes ( synoptically). And since neither the back ground fix exertion is ever leaving, nor is CC going the other way... As an after-note, this lends to the hypothesis that exaggerated ridges are sort of robbing eastern N/A from experiencing these synergistic heat bursts that have been occurring acround the world. Pac NW/June of 2021 ... the few times in NW Europe. Australian. SE Asia springs... etc. Those regions are not as "protected" by N/A built in circumstance of heat deflection. I think this is why NW NE and SE Canada have seen an uptick in the April and early May heat waves...because the DP side of all this hasn't seasonally moved into those regions, such that early heat slips that one mitigating factor, and only has to then overcome the background fixed state. It's interesting... But by the time we get to mid/late June+ ... a CC -charged footprint might be teaming up with the background fix state, then adding DPs holding the temps down ... you know, it fits. Because we are contributing our warmth to the total warming pot in night times lows, which in the summer, are highly modulated by the DPs at that end of the diurnal temperature cycle.

He’ll be ok. Death had a near Chuck Norris experience.

Three hours of feathers 10A-1P yesterday, 0.1-0.2" on the road and leaves, 0.4-0.6" on the old snow (maybe 75% cover in the woods) on 0.01" LE. I called it 0.3" SN.\ GYX "at least, most likely, 10% chance" thru 008Z Monday is 0.5/6/12. Probably closest to the 0.5" as the parade of midgets continues.

that would be january, not march. march usually features enough ups to compensate for the downs.

Then it is, If the family shared it, The original source had cred issues.

Hopefully it isn’t true but local news just shared his family confirmed

The point that I was trying to make, in my above post that got lost was, that if we get ample storms, that will give me plenty of opportunities to test the live stream. I've had a lot of trouble with work injuries trying to get back into the swing this year, one more lumbar injury and i'll be streaming myself working 3rd and Walnut for gas and copenhagen.

I hope so, nothing destructive of course. Starting over the next few weeks i'm going to be posting links to live streams whenever I have the opportunity to stream adverse, interesting, beautiful weather and wildlife. By the time winter rolls around I hope to have multiple cameras set up with lighting, and feed for wildlife doring and after the storms. I'll also have a camera mounted to me for all my winter storm excursions. I realized that viewers from here, maybe quite limited, even non existent, but I just watched someone obtained 230,000 viewers hiccuping into a video camera, for twelve hours straight. It's actually just something I I've wanted to do for fun and have no intentions of gaining any profit sharing from youtube. I probably be running my first test late tonight . The link will just be to a camera looking out into my backyard.

This is questionable as to if he has or not.

I was just watching a video of him yesterday!

Nooooo Chuck Norris died. That’s a blow to the day. Walker Texas Ranger is the first TV show I ever remember

For one of my classes we do a class forecasting contest and I thought one of the cities was going to be Fairbanks b/c that’s what the professor listed for the week and I freaked the heck out thank god he had changed it.

A -22.9°F departure is impressive.

RIP Chuck Norris

Well BN but not to the Fairbanks extreme.

Im counting down

I wonder where Anchorage ranks too...I feel like its been quite cold, even for them. I mean they aren't usually terrible because they get moderate a bit by the water.

I guess it depends on ones definition of "wintry threats" and potential expectations. As cool or chilly as the pattern looks ahead, there don't seem to be much in the way of prospects to hope for a storm. It's a rather benign pattern, generally associated with weak systems with little room or opportunity to really amplify. If one is just looking for snow showers or whatever, obviously that is still very much in game and always in game, even into mid-April. NNE of course is a different story...always potential there, even into early May. Pretty blue colors on the precip type maps with FROPAS don't mean there is a snow threat.

March can suck here, but holy hell at Fairbanks this month. GWDLT

Just 186 short days until autumn. Only 3 more months until we start losing daylight again. NFL training camps will be open before we know it.

Those are the best kind. Single Supercell CB with nothing around it for 100 miles, carving a canyon 100 miles long

I posted it for Ineedsnow. Im still looking at the models to see if any threats pop up but its looking less likely.
