  1. Also, don't actively campaign for the position as that usually doesn't work.
  2. I gotta say that a substantial amount of posts have been hidden from view, so for as bad as you think it is it could be much worse.
  3. I'd feel bad. He seems like a cool dude. He has done this often enough to where his abilities are pretty darn good, but as a chaser you must recognize that there is always a small chance of something going really wrong.
  4. Nah, I'm good. NHC made a reasonable argument on why it wasn't upgraded. We are talking about the difference between a high end cat 4 vs a cat 5 lurking off the coast. Not a huge difference there.
  5. The conspiracy theories on lack of cat 5 are silly.
  6. It's right on there... edh1981. I was thinking maybe Lmolineux but I think he did the penis map in the Gulf.
  7. Y'all can thank me for reviving Randy's storm mode announcement.
  8. I actually hope people start playing this one up... within reason. Call it responsible hyperbole. Potential for a pretty bad outcome and timed on a holiday with more out of towners in the mix.
  9. I've never been able to embed tweets. True story.
  10. Looks like the earthquake occurred in the northeast Ohio seismic zone.
  11. That looks like the old school TWC graphics. Who knew that they're still in use.
  12. I doubt it. Of course it gets crazy hot there but the dews aren't high enough. My guess for highest heat index would be somewhere in the Midwest, which has the benefit of extra evapotranspiration from the crops.
  13. Agree... go with the reliable info when you have it. I just meant that the data to pick from is a bit limited by not having public access to the intrahour obs from many years back.
  14. Looks like that was intrahour. That's the thing... these wind chill records are almost always going to be hourly readings since I don't think it's possible to find intrahour observation archives from long ago.
  15. I was in Lafayette, IN back then. Looks like the wind chill bottomed out at -40
  16. 1/6/2014 was quite an experience. Besides the extreme cold, the fact that the temperature dropped to those levels so soon after the snowstorm meant that the roads were a mess. Even the main roads had that layer of hardened snow that wouldn't come off.
  17. The Kansas/Missouri records being colder is a little surprising, but there could be various reasons. Even could be some microclimate thing.
  18. Congrats on the job. Sucks that another poster is moving out of the region though.
  19. All that is is modeled precip amounts from the moment the temp drops to 32 or below, with no consideration for rates (heavier rates tend to have more runoff) or whether temps are more like 31-32 or in the 20s. They give an idea of where icing may occur but otherwise I would not take them literally.
