Not really sure how the wind affects the rides but there's no way I'd be able to be out in this shit for more than a couple hours without the wind, giving me a thumping headache . I have to be out in it all day today so I went proactive with th NSAIDs.

I used the same AI he used to illustrate a point. I still prefer using the actual literature. AI is here to stay, how it is used or misused will have profound consequences. I take no position on whether AGI or a “singularity” will be reached anytime soon.

That event could have hit further north, but then it would have ripped off the places that got hit. It was typical of cold enso waves in that it had a more restrictive cold sector precip expanse. We just don’t get those HUGE whole region win type storms in a cold enso which is part of the issue.

This frontal passage is truly a potent one. It's windy as heck, trees are down, sideways rain and the temp has fallen from 62 to 53 in short order.

Ground nests are the worst, often don't know it until too late. They have gotten me before.

We big boy

Wind blowing 30 here.

Hopefully the Polar Jet will come down far enough to produce plenty Upslope.

Far more likely, the potential tropical cyclone will approach or die as it heads toward Central America or flung NE/ENE out into the Atlantic. A lot would need to happen for the capture to play out. Models don’t have skill this far out on such details.

I posted a foliage photo this morning, and it disappeared. About a week ago I posted about NOAA's Blobtracker Web site in the New England forum, and it was removed. I get that - off topic or wrong forum, no problem. But a foliage photo from my backyard in Vermont? Just curious....

That might be adding to my allergies too-- wind plus humidity is a very bad combo

EPS also has some big hits

I'm at an Octoberfest they're out of f****** control. Both Bartenders have been stung.

If coupled with ENSO and if we’re willing to go that far back, perhaps a climo-adjusted 1974-75 analog might be considered.

Linkwood mesonet site gusted to 35.

My kid got stung 14 times by em yesterday when we were fishing. Goddamn ground nest in the soft river bank of a heavily walked area. No visible opening, really. Maybe 6 inches from waters edge. There were a bunch of people walking near or over it, my kid just happened to kneel down right on top of it. They didn't swarm, only a maybe 4 or 5 attacked but they went for multiple stings.

Humidity is a bit much..

the warm weather is nice but the winds are torturing me with allergies it hit 72 here and didn't seem humid

too bad you could have hit 80 today still bright and sunny here but just too windy for me

what caused its drying out, lower rainfall totals over the past year?

Maybe even a Sandy type track? That pattern looks VERY familiar and the time of the month is right too.

Made it to 78 before clouds started to move in bit now at 75

dry summers and wet winters are exactly what we want
