  1. Past hour
  2. any reason why the totals by user aren't showing up in the main google tab view?
  3. Yea my reference is the last 3 winters which were 2.5", 7"ish, and 13" ish. Naturally I'm skeptical when people say this area is gonna have 20"+. Though I've seen the numbers from the past and I realize I just got here during a profoundly unwintery stretch.
  4. I had the same temp and experience. I tend to agree with @WmsptWx reasoning. To add on to his point about the team playing hard, look at all of the guys who came back this year who could have left early. No doubt the biggest reason was the thought of winning a national title. As the losses mounted, I kept thinking "how much do those guys regret the decision to come back?". And yet, there they are, flying all over the field and playing with a ton of passion. And it's why I'm PSU proud and it's why I'm choosing to take this from an otherwise demoralizing season. The past few weeks, this team has been fun to watch. They should have beat Indiana. I really hope they can bang out the final 2 games, get to a consolation bowl and send these guys off on a high note. They deserve it. As you said to me, so much has gone the worst way possible this year. Time to end it right.
  5. KMRB's low was 21.9 which is now the coldest night so far this fall.
  6. Euro has some QPF too. Temps are borderline though. I dunno, been steadily inching north. Maybe higher spots above 400’ or so get something? Interesting to see what happens.
  7. 12z Hrrr is a tease for SWCT with a sunrise surprise tomorrow … Aint happening James
  8. I’m trying to think back to the last time we had a cloudflare outage and how the following winter ended up. There’s still time for Ray to make some minor adjustments.
  9. Perhaps Vogtle is an outlier, but it's still clear that costs are way above where they should be, based on the skyrocketing trend in the late 80's; and noting that that was generally for just completion of plants whose initial planning and design was done *before* TMI. Not sure what you mean by "the workforce" being the primary road block. Workforce expertise is flexible - if we started getting serious about nuclear energy and ramping it up, the workforce would follow, just like it has always done for so many other things (e.g. look at the explosion in AI recently, the explosion of the internet in the late 90's, etc. etc.). Demand creates the workforce - the workforce doesn't create demand.
  10. 31 when I left the house. Site was down this morning when I initially tried to post.
  11. Ok that explains it. From 2002 to now, NYC has had 12 winters above 30", but the prior 32 winters, only 4. I think that stretch from 2002-present, but really 2002-2016, really skewed peoples expectations. This is correct. Often the area is between 15-25", but those bigger winters is what we crave.
  12. To me, NYC has a very snowy climate. Then again, my avg annual snow is only 0.2” with most winters getting none. My area hasn’t received a foot+ of snow for an entire season since 1800. I’ve also lived in Atlanta, where their avg is still “only” 2”. So, when I see a city’s average at 20”+, ten+ times as much as ATL and 100+ times as much as SAV, that there is very snowy! Atlanta’s never even gotten close to 20” in a season! Aside: Cloudflare problems had been causing widespread outages this morning, including here.
  13. nice! yeah its a really easy way to spend an hour or two when i should be studying, to waste time. grand forks does seem a little trigger happy on their eastern counties there...
  14. Jeff Beradelli has stated that sudden stratospheric warming will begin today, dropping a polar vortex into the northeast by early next month.
  15. Glad 2005-06 came up. December got nutty cold. Snow blanketed much of the country. Then it got warm. December cold broke around Christmas in KCMO, which was a little disappointing. January thaw was torch. For this year, operational models are of course all over the place. Thanksgiving weekend cold front CF may actually be faster on Thanksgiving rather than the weekend. Then a few milder days are forecast before the next CF. Weekly products the CFS gets cold established for the first week of Dec, fading during the second week of Dec. The ECMWF weekly doesn't seem to acknowledge the Thanksgiving weekend CF but starts the cold west to east trek the first weekend of Dec. Putting it all together, I think the first 1-2 fronts could be brief cold intrusions. Thanksgiving weekend and then middle of the first week or weekend of December. ECMWF weekly struggles to discern the fronts that week. CFS may lock in cold a week early. Perhaps after a couple fronts chip away at the warm pattern, by December 10 give or take a couple weeks can average truly below normal temps. See if we could get that through Christmas for a third week. Siberia continues to set the table.. for after we work through the North America warm week to 10 days. Temperature anomalies, blue is cold Sfc Press anomalies, red is higher
  16. Low of 23.5 at 6:59 this morning. Just finished my last morning doing my friends farm. Was all layered up but by the time I was finished had peeled off almost all my layers.
  17. I remember (maybe in the MA forum) talk of the first legit winter storm was in the first week of December. Welp. Fantasy land 6Z has it. Albeit nothing to go crazy over.
