    Could it be worse than the year we had 30 TC's Don (I think that was 2020)? Hyperactive seasons tend to favor the Gulf over the East Coast don't they? Is there any way to predict which region would be favored this year?

    You had a nice job and I imagine Merck had to do a lot of changes after the fiasco and controversy over Vioxx.

    Be well, one other thing we can all agree on, sunshine and blue skies heals the heart and energizes the soul!
  4. LibertyBell
    Yes, I agree with this too, large paradigm shifts only usually happen after something really bad happens first. I thought the results of the pandemic would be cause something like that to occur (it still might, how it was handled has lasting effects.)

    Yes, sadly we see greed and a thirst for control and power from all sides, because everyone seems to be chasing their cash cow. It's happened throughout human history, from even way before there were fossil fuels being used. It's why wars are fought and millions of people die.

    Since you've been relatively nice, I'm removing your name from my sig.  Let's try to keep the peace okay? The weather is quiet right now too.

      I understand lol, I do think you're a pretty chill guy, so hopefully we all get  a nice snowstorm to end the season on and move on to hopefully  a better season next year.

    Thanks, I have said this before and I'll say this again-- you provide a valuable service with what you do both in terms of your service record and also the logs you keep about sea surface temperature. It's not easy to find this kind of information for specific areas. I have always thought the most important way to handle situations is how do they impact human health? Changes in temperature do have an impact, but it's always been a hazy issue how much is cyclical and how much is human induced, and out of that subset, how much is from carbon emissions and how much is from transforming the planet into large densely populated concrete filled cities. I can definitely say that living in a large urban area has an impact on health, because whenever I stay at my other house in the Poconos I sleep so much better (no light pollution) and the air feels so much cleaner. This is an issue that isn't just about climate change, but also about how we build our cities and the materials we use to build them with.

    I heard of this, see we are moving forward with geoengineering.
  9. LibertyBell
    I think there are some things easier to see than others-- we do know that fossil fuel emissions have a negative impact on human health (higher rates of asthma and air pollution shortening life by 2 years on average-- more than smoking cigarettes does.) The other thing we can acknowledge is that we are causing a mass extinction of species that are very beneficial to us-- the pollinators.

    It was interesting to see Judah Cohen's 10 minute interview just now on the weather channel. They congratulated him on being the "long range champion" and said he was the only one to correctly forecast the 2-3 week arctic shot in January. Cohen went on to say that he believes the SSW will be a weaker version of what happened in January and that he sees this one as being more notable for cold rather than snow. He said this has been an amazing winter for the stratosphere, though the results have not always made it to ground level.

    congrats twin forks in that event, I remember Orient measured 30 inches
  13. LibertyBell
    I think your area received close to 2 feet lol

    Snow never sticks in urban areas anyway unless it's very heavy snow in the middle of winter. It's time to measure what falls as snow rather than what accumulates on UHI infected ground.

    It's interesting that Long Beach and your house in Huntington basically had the same amount of snow. So the snow bands were oriented southwest to northeast.
  16. LibertyBell
    So if Babylon on the south shore can get sound enhanced snow, how come we can't get sound enhanced snow back here?
  17. LibertyBell
    Plus super easy to shovel. Here, I didn't shovel at all, as the foot of snow was blown off my property by the wind (off my driveway at any rate.)
  18. LibertyBell
    This area messes up on snowfall in so many ways. If it's not a changeover scenario the storm is too far east of us lol. We rarely do extremely well unless it's a block buster coastal storm coming up from the south that gets far enough north to get the changeover line within 50 miles of us but not far enough north to actually get it to our latitude.
  19. LibertyBell
    The moderate storm in a mild pattern we had on VD in Feb 2018? lol why?
  20. LibertyBell
    True the same thing happens when we have a powerful coastal storm on the east coast, we sometimes create new inlets.
  21. LibertyBell
    That's right, but none of them were off topic, we were just talking about alternate ways to have snowy winters. It's completely different to be making 19 posts in a row while most people are sleeping vs doing it when everyone's busy posting, there was literally no one else awake at that time plus I love to write quickly I love blogging on here.

    My sister is 63 now and I worry about her because she insists on living alone. And insists on doing everything herself. The last time she was at my house, I could see she was getting dizzy and a little off balance and I asked her to rest for a bit-- and she hates that.

    Older people seem to be much more sensitive to cold weather too. I've maintained friendships with people who loved the cold weather when they were in their 20s, 30s and 40s, but once they hit their 60s, they can't stand cold weather anymore (with or without snow.)

    Even Brooklyn got 12" in that one. That was our last significant snowstorm wasn't it? It's been awhile...
  25. LibertyBell
    When a multidecade drought does that to a large lake, it'll take multiple decades for them to recover. Meanwhile getting the snowpack back up will help a lot (even if it means our winters will suck for awhile lol.)
