    Sounds like we approach Trek from the same critical angle.  :)  Given that, I think you will REALLY enjoy Picard S3, certainly more than the first two seasons, as it definitely feels more ST than before. And a GREAT point about ST: Prodigy, didn't mean to leave that one out -- I did watch the first season and was pleasantly surprised at the writing and storyline, and thought the voice cast was quite good. I like that Prodigy's creators/writers not only respect canon, BUT, that they're writing a thoughtfully mature show that's aimed at younger viewers without insulting their intelligence.

    And AHHHH, "In the Pale Moonlight" -- agree 500%! An episode that forces us all to consider, "To what lengths will I go to achieve my objectives?" Still get chills watching that one...and it's no accident that it often appears at the top of (or within the top 3) of best ST episodes of all shows/all time!

    I really despise Picard seasons 1 and 2. But 3 at least brings the old character of Jon Luc Picard back, even if it's for the usual foolishness involving eyeball torture and needlessly gruesome deaths

    Aren't yall excited that starting Sunday, we'll be up until 2:30 am instead of 1:30 am watching the Euro? 

    There's nothing like a 12z 11:30 am GFS run.

    Waiting an extra hour for the Euro causes an additional 1,000 March heart attacks each year. It's devastating for farmers trying to feed the pigs and look at the 06z GFS.

  3. 12z EPS median total snow amount for 360 hours (DCA): 0.5”. It’s an ensemble so you can round that down to a trace. The median was 1” for IAD. 

    Both figures are worse than climo for early March (1991-2020). 

    The middling snow numbers in the eps (with a handful of outliers) are basically what you’d expect in advance of 360 hours of seasonably COOL air (maybe 2-3F below average…but it’s March). 

    hopefully we get lucky and one of the wackadoo scenarios happens…
