  1. remains of a once-bright burning bush
  2. The West Coast low pressure area has already brought 1.25"-5.0" to San Francisco, 3.0" (3.0 feet?) to the Sierra Nevadas, and 0.3" to Los Angeles. There's much more to come for southern California and the desert. It's kicking the ridge in the middle of the country. Today, Fort Collins was back to 70-75, 75 in Denver, and over 80 in Kansas.
  3. Fort Collins up to 75.1 I wish I could turn on the weather magnets and get you guys some rain and snow. My place in Ohio had more snow than Estes Park this week. It wasn't much.
  4. I was testing out some color palettes for Radarscope. This clear-air color palette makes it look super cool by South Bend
  5. The changeover from rain to snow produced some heavier snowfall rates here in Toledo. I believe my place got over 2" before 10:00, and we still have snowflakes and 35 degrees.
  6. Fort Collins was 81 in Nov. 2006 (The first year I was there) and 79 just the other day, and also 79 in Nov. 2016.
  7. a bit of a side note on weather. Louisville airport reported smoke after the plane crash
  8. This is a young tree in my neighborhood. I am wondering if it is an elm of some type, but I don't think it is. The leaves are small
  9. with roughly 4.0" for Toledo (August to October) this puts the area near one of the worst three-month (August to October) drought periods (46% or normal rainfall)
  10. This National Guard trainer plane went over a road and almost smashed into this guy's windshield. The news reports say the pilots walked away from the crash.
  11. Do you guys remember this crazy game? I believe the Broncos broke a record for scoring in 2013.
  12. just simple kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2. For integrated kinetic energy, there's more to it. (I'm not sure how to look that up.)
  13. double the speed, 4x the kinetic energy and also 4x the drag force on objects.
  14. The GFS has this rainfall missing the lower Great Lakes entirely
  15. That is pretty funny how it is similar to Sandy's track. I suppose we can say it's a good thing that Hurricane (non-Hurricane) Sandy was a 1 in a million shot.
  16. There has been plenty of talk about the upgrade to EF-5 in Enderlin, North Dakota. (You may want to check out multiple videos on Youtube.) Here was, I believe, the closest time frame that I saved of that tornado (June 20th, 11:08PM central)
