February 2024 mid/ long range
Matthew70 replied to Holston_River_Rambler's topic in Tennessee Valley
Once we get pass Saturday the wx looks really good for end of February. Mid 50s to 60s. Unreal last few years seems we have one week of winter & that’s it. Definitely the wx patterns have changed. The environment has changed a lot. Things will be blooming early this year meaning most likely will be killed by a freeze. Ugh. I already have bushes to cut back again from the damage from week in January.- 750 replies

Fall/Winter Banter - Football, Basketball, Snowball?
Matthew70 replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
College football can burn at this point. Bama had Grubb as their OC all of 3 weeks. Lol. None of these coaches are going to stick around when the NFL calls. Just wait till spring & after the first 3 games of next season. The portal will be beyond full. The teams now paying millions will only increase their payouts. Ohio State has bought their championship. Texas right behind them. I see Sanders, Kiffin, Kirby, Haupel all going to pros in next 2-3 years tops. Why work 365 days when in pros you work 5-6 months a year. If you have not read what Locksley said about it all. Go read it. A 3rd string RB asking for $100k! lol! -

I do like we have rain to help going into spring. I am not complaining about the temps either. Mid 50s to 60 is perfect soccer weather to sit & watch my daughter.- 750 replies

Fall/Winter Banter - Football, Basketball, Snowball?
Matthew70 replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Spot on truth. Ohio state has an estimated $18 million in NIL deals. That’s called buying the championship. Same as pro sports. Manning at TX has made over $3 million & never played a down yet. Caleb Downs from Bama to Ohio State is estimated to have been paid $1.5 million to sign with Ohio State. TX paid all their lineman $50k bonus at end of season. Out of top 10 schools spending on NIL. Only 1 school is in top 10. That is UGA. Now we see why Saban & eventually all the good coaches will do. They will retire or go to the NFL. Steel DC who just retired said he & Saban would visit kids in last 3-4 months. The parents would look at them and say “We know we can win a title & go to the nfl with Alabama. Problem is you are not even in the ballpark of the amount of money we have been offered”. That is Alabama they are saying that to. The GOAT of college football. It’s not about winning anymore. It’s all about the money. Now you see Pitino saying it’s out of hand. Just wait in 2-3 years we will have $5-$10 million NIL bonuses to 1 player. That’s more than NFL rookies sign for. Why even leave college. -

Yes my insurance on my vehicles went up substantially. Which is not all Wx related. Its lack of availability of parts & people staying in rentals much longer is part of the problem. I just dread a cold spring soccer season. They are not fun to sit in.- 750 replies

Well I mowed my yard for the first time this year. Truly remarkable how green it is. Sadly it appears the cold damaged & maybe even killed some of my shrubs that I just planted. Sigh. Today was absolutely picture perfect.- 750 replies

I was not at all downing DT. He is a good forecaster but just like in this forum. We are told to take it with any LR with a grain of salt. DT makes it sound like it’s a done deal. Which he does a lot of his forecasting to get clicks & make $. Just like Bastardi. I don’t ever go with any LR forecasting on temps or precip. Chances are it will always be closer to averages for both.- 750 replies
