All Activity

My wife has had this rodeo. That is one step closer to an answer, which ultimately is beneficial. Hope today you feel a bit better.

This morning was kind of surprising. A little damp out still but a nice cool morning with Sun was nice.

I have one eye on the May 17-18 time period. GFS has periodically been showing decent parameters and shear. But of course...it's WAY out there in fantasy range.

pretty good assessment here overall, yup. I mean I like to deeper dive into why these larger identified resonances behaved the way they did, but just as a step back recognition, agreed.

Yup...this too - wow, you're on a roll today. ha

Look like some rain chances every five or so days for a few weeks starting Thursday night in to Friday I guess? That would be welcome to get more opportunities in here over the next few weeks.

Can't complain about the rain as it was just enough to really wake up my backyards grass. Everything has shot up over the weekend. Enjoying a cool morning outside with bright blue skies.

alright alright. it's 62. making some progress.

...more over, looping suggests this is a stationary attack on my dignity ... relative to the flow. It's like a negative exposure of Ray in a snow storm - this is pic is a metaphor for that.

Evening bloodwork panel did not come back good - my doctor is sending all of my information to Rheumatology now as he thinks it's likely an autoimmune disease. Maybe I'm finally heading towards at least knowing what I'm dealing with.

haha... i know. I saw pure blue out the windows. made coffee pure clouds. sat confirmed... it spontaneously blossomed as though making the observation itself somehow must have triggered it to do so. lol still completely overcast despite all this look of having more sun opportunities than cloud on this present sat vis image. it's one of those days whence the technology looks that way, but always overcast at ground truth. hate that - not that anyone asked.. but it's not the sun so much for me as it is the temperature. If it's warm... I'm sort of indifferent to whether it is cloudy. I'd take warm and wet over cold and wet, too. Although high dews and mold are concerns eventually...etc. But I don't grow to despise mid 50s in May if it caries on very long. The rain is over. Go away. Anyway, this image suggests the minority fractals are succeeding in keeping the majority unfairly cold - gee ...sounds like a present era sociological problem in America, doesn't it. haha

It sounds like Nibiru lol You should read the Isaac Asimov novel Nemesis. It's about an earth analog planet beyond Neptune that causes periodic mass extinctions on earth every 26 millions years because of its elongated orbit disturbing the Oort Comet cloud and causing a swarm of comets to head towards the inner solar system periodically. About the space and time thing, what we've seen seems (to me) to more proof of a *universe before the universe* in other words a cyclic universe with remnants left over from a previous cycle. We may also have found evidence of algae on an oceanic exoplanet that's about 124 light years away, our cosmic backyard.

Would be curious to know if that would be approaching any records for May. Can probably just download the daily/monthly data after and check.

Sun is out here. Could be a lowkey nice day?

heh... just mentioned it to Scott. yeah..

Oh, yeah... The bugs. I hate bugs!! They freak me out! I've already encountered so many while going out for walks. Including bees and wasps flying right near my face. The sheer peace of winter and not having them around. I miss it. Frogs are cool, though. I saw some around last summer.

I just looked at a few monitoring wells in our neck of the woods to see how the ground water levels are doing. I looked at the levels over the past year, the blue are those readings and the lighter gray line is the median level. You'll see Montgomery is normal, Carmel is slightly above normal and White Plains is slightly below.

I've been battling that thing... The telecon spread does not really suggest the depth and amplitude the operational guidance keep insisting of that thing. I'm waiting for them to finally respond to the 'non-linearity' of the surrounding, lowering favorability for having that depression in the TV in the first place, but they keep diggin that sumnabitch in there like an Alabama tick. Namely, there's a robust -PNA. In fact, ...one that has gotten more robust over the last 3 days days. Meanwhile, there doesn't appear to be any other indexes that suggest there's contention of proxy over the circulation mode... In other words, it all seems more -PNA ... So that TV whirl should be weaker. Nope... okay

No thread for 1-3" interior late Thu-early Fri. Antecedent not quite high enough. Samples attached of actual rainfall via CoCoRaHs and NYS Mesonet. (Fri-Tue). (click for clarity) Also yesterdays hail reports near our area in green...not necessarily severe hail.

It was nice to see the sun this morning albeit for 10 minutes.

Weekend looks great with seasonal temps. Maybe a bit above by Sunday

Yeah... not directly observed, but they've narrowed the 'candidate regions' where to look, substantially. Reads like "point your cameras there cause it can't be anywhere else" I suppose an extensive process of elimination effort, winnowing down candidate locations. What I fing peculiar is that we've evolved tech like JW satellite/technology, capable of seeing details so vastly far off that we are on the verge of blowing up the going notion of the cosmic age and scale. Yet, we cannot see a 9th planet in orbit around an ordinary star like our yellow dwarf. Hmm. There are challenges, of course... But, those challenges are so insignificant when compared to now challenging the very construct of god, like seeing objects that argue the onset of time and space itself ( ). It just sorta seems any such 9th planet really is ... not actually challenging, then. Yet it remains so elusive. The thing is ...what they can see, empirically, is/are too evidentiary to explain otherwise. Telltale signs so coherent of its gravity source to believe it doesn't exist - its enough to all but say something has to be there. And, that something was/is sufficiently capable of ordering the random flotsam into the distribution they are seeing .. In the neighborhood of 3 to 9 Earth masses ( I think I most recently read). Until they see the planet, however, some how, some way ... this is perpetually in a state of "...might have been discovered" imho. We still need to change that expression to has been discovered. ... when/if they do directly observe the planet, I want it named after whatever ancient Latin word means "redheaded stepchild" ..do to it's being so ostracized and neglected out to the margins; it's Gaia so tormented it always thought no one loved it and it eternally suffered persecution in ever being a part of this solar system ... Which makes me wonder. Maybe it left. It's a run-away, and say ... what they can/are observing of the present day distribution( argument above), is now just a relic of its influence from antiquity. This planet may have been on a very expensive parabolic orbit. Similar to the demoted Pluto, not on the same plain necessarily as the inner family, but perhaps much more elliptical. This would increase the possibility that a rogue star, many eons ago, may have passed by the sun outer most tentacles, doing so close enough that when the hypothetical planet 9 was out around the aphelion the interloping sun nabbed it. Orbital capture. Hell, maybe it was Scholz’s Star, a discovered red dwarf that passed by 70,000 years ago... In other words, ...stolen. Either by it or some other star a billion years ago ...etc. Heh, that'd be a fun sci-fi novel. The stolen planet was an Earth analog, ... frozen and in stasis, waiting for its chance to seek revenge on the favored siblings - in keeping with the redheaded thing.. ha. And the new orbital insert post kidnapping and adoption, placed it into the warm, loving, Goldie Lock Zone nurturing embrace of the new evil start ...where life, "cosmically resentful" evolved out of a vengeful Gaia Chakra, thus was an inherently dark intelligence. Peering out at the Galaxy via their own "JW", they were doing so as a desperate species - on the brink of their own Fermian explanation ... And so they found us, thinking a nice alternative for a fresh start. hahaha nice.

Just .06" last 24 hours (8am - 8am) here. Five day event total = 1.28". While a far cry from early advertisements of 3-6" it was a slow and beneficial rain event spread over several days. Some places clearly did better than others but most everyone received .50 - .75". Beautiful sunny, dry and breezy morning. Additional rains 1-2" (maybe some locally higher amounts) Thursday night through Friday. All in all when the recently ended event and the upcoming events over the next 5-10 days get added up the drought conditions should be pretty much erased.

Where's @Typhoon Tip This seems like an impressive dip in the PNA for mid-May, no? EPS is even more negative too
