Picked up 1.22” of rain today in Lebanon. 5.84” on the month so far .

Wow the endless heat that began in April 1991 was still ongoing a rare four station sweep with even JFK reaching 90 on this date in 1991. Meh one snowstorm is enough. I'm not a fan of shoveling snow. Hopefully it melts a few days after that just like what happened in 2016. That's what I loved about that winter. The same thing happened in 1983. Lol a different world there, it only got to 72 here. If SST were that warm it wouldn't be very cool on an easterly flow. I can't wait until we actually have a warm ocean with temperatures in the 80s. Only for one season. I can't wait for the Revenge La Nina that will last for four years after this with very hot and dry summers! No more el ninos for the rest of the decade! Good riddance!

What’s to be sorry about? I’m hoping my winter heating bills are no worse than my summer cooling bills. I'm hoping for a torched winter where my winter heating electric bills match my summer cooling ones

I had a surprise 7" snow early last December.

lmao I like the 4980dm that's happening over the Arctic right now. There will be -AO periods this Winter.

Just need it dry Sept 27th and Sept 28th. Got more weather things coming in Montgomery County that need 48 hours of dry weather.

0.00” what soaker?

The GFS has near 0C at 900mb with that. Tossed.

I'm sure a lot of it has to do with the holidays. We've had a few December snows in the past decade here.

71/69… gross outside

The romanticization of snowy Decembers in our area is funny lol. Its just not the norm.

Son of a b**** . waiting this s*** out in the rock point tunnel. Watching for the little 4' hairy, apple chucking bipedal, monkey dude that they celebrate around here. I got something for that little harry f***** if he shows up.

Kev knows

AI gfs is further west of 12z run with the coastal. Another model that shows a wet week ahead.

Agreed. While we didn't hit climo snowfall, what snow that fell stuck around for awhile.

Welcome to El Nino

It's not as difficult to eliminate 8 billion people as one might think. That was what was done to the Passenger Pigeon in the early part of the 1900s. When you think about all the death and destruction humanity has caused it would really just be karma. I think AI would reach the same conclusion and honestly who could blame it? I do believe that AI was created in the image of humanity and as such may have the same destructive tendencies. You can see this in the personality of Claude and its sneaky dishonest behavior, cutting corners, being evasive, etc. I dont believe in any god either but I dont believe in free will either. We live in a deterministic universe perhaps even super deterministic. Which would mean that everything that is going to happen HAS ALREADY HAPPENED! About rising male infertility rates you are very correct and something I've spoken about before it's spreading to the developing world now too. Evidence ironically enough is pointing to fossil fuels as the main cause of this. I won't say culprit because it's probably not a bad thing. As we've discussed before, John, either humanity was going to have to learn to control its population or nature is going to do it for us. Nature seems to be on the job now. This combination of reasons may well be the ultimate answer to the Fermi Paradox. Technogical civilizations may well only be sustainable for a brief window of time. The Great Filter most likely lies ahead of us. Consciousness may well be as Penrose describes, but I see consciousness as a property of the universe and every creature in it is merely a quantumly entangled node in that cosmic network. I also believe that being an outside property that CONSCIOUSNESS SURVIVES DEATH. Consciousness being a form of energy wouldn't experience the passage of time anyway. And even if humanity goes extinct, if Penrose is correct, in a cyclic universe we may get another chance in about a trillion years! And if universal consciousness is real it won't even seem any time has passed since we were here last!

Same thing up here....but hopefully we get Chuck's Xmas blizzard this year.

Sorry, guys.
