    Unfortunately, it appears it’s just gonna be low 40s with some cold rains. We need the rain, but I can do without the cold rain. Well in 10 weeks it’ll be mid March knocking on spring.

    Thats a pretty good trio to have on our side.

    Happy New Years to everyone! I hope it’s a wonderful year for ALL. I hope we all get a big snow before winter is over.

    Carver very well said. I am like you in that I am not on either side of the climate spectrum. Do I believe it’s changed. Most definitely but you said the key words. “Has it changed for reasons we don’t know”. Yes no doubt man has added some effects but I don’t believe it’s to the levels the politicians & govts. are saying. I like you wonder is this a cycle that we are going thru or is the earth striking midnight. We have heard that many years from now the sun will go out. Who knows if true. I am saddened also to see what we are doing to the earth. With the technology of today how can recycling not be more important & efficient. I watch builders just erase everything off the land to build houses & buildings. It’s sad & disgusting. I want my kids to have a beautiful earth to live on not a barren wasteland. Why do houses not have solar panels built on the roofs already. Why do water heaters not get their electricity from solar panels. It’s all about $. Cutting corners & getting cheapest materials to build. When in reality it’s killing the future for our kids. We have advanced so much as humans yet we still do things like it’s the stone ages. As far as the numbers being edited. It does not surprise me. If they make the numbers less it plays into the $ making climate change narrative.

    Funny you say that. When I started following also. All I ever heard was about the AO/NAO/PNA. Never once heard about the MJO. Now it’s all about the MJO. Honestly it would not surprise me if another gets added to this group in the next few years. One thing is for certain. We are nowhere close to understanding wx.

    The flash freeze last December destroyed much of my shrubs. I have replaced them but any time a flash freeze occurs like that. Most likely it will kill my new ones even though they are cold hardy. One can still see the damage to shrubs all around here. Places just don’t have the $ to replace them all.

    So it makes me pause & wonder do they make us believe winters are more snowless now than they really are to fit a certain agenda. Is it predictive programming. Are places really having snow yet they tell us they are not. Interesting.
  9. Matthew70
    Interesting. This would be a good discussion to talk about as to why. Is this also possible or true for other wx offices? Is data missing there also? Is it political or just lazy.

    I don’t get upset like I used to not having snow. After so many years in 90’s I realized it’s just not the same climate it used to be in the 70’s. Not at all saying it’s climate change. Which I’m not saying it’s not happening either but something changed. I used to believe the earth & wx go in cycles. Maybe we are in a bad cycle for snow in these parts. I know this is not the place to discuss that topic. I also remember as John said. Warm Novembers usually don’t bode well for winter. I also feel TN seems to have more tornadoes than it once did & the plains not as many. I am hoping we don’t have another cold spring. Cold rains in March & April are not fun for any of us. Though we might need those if we do not start getting the water table up. Drought brings more drought. Please no drought for this spring & summer. Come on cold & moisture. Give us a good ole snow storm. Sorry for the rambles.

    I just hope it’s not all a mirage, and the MJO is the true reality.

    After the warmup/thaw it will take a lot to erase + temps average across the area for January. Which it’s really not even a thaw. We have a big soccer showcase mid January here. Looks like going to be nice temps.
  13. Matthew70
    Is this after the warmup thaw mid month? Or is the warmup being muted?

    Merry Christmas to everyone & your families! It’s a wet Christmas but I will take it. We need the rain. Thanks to all who makes this the best wx board forum on social media.
  15. Matthew70
    Well the soaking rains predicted earlier are all but a whimper now for this area. Another cold shot then right back to the comfortable 55-60 temps. If it’s not going to snow then I will take winter temps like that. We are approaching the coldest part of winter. I consider January thru mid February the window. After that around here the chances are higher for ice & cold rains. I am doubting winter really happens. Weather has changed for the whole world.
  16. Matthew70
    At this rate the higher amounts of rain are disappearing quickly for mid TN. Beautiful day today. LR looks ho hum. Rinse & repeat. Will be interesting if winter really does show up for more than 2 weeks. Strange how it seems we can’t get a solid 6-8 weeks of winter anymore. The earths wx is really bi polar anymore.
  17. Matthew70
    At the rate winter is going. I will be mowing my yard all winter. Near 60 for next 10 days. Christmas shows near 60 also. My yard is green & growing.
  18. Matthew70
    I guess the question is when will be the next bout of severe weather because we know it’s coming now. Anytime you have above normal temperatures with cold fronts, pressing into the warmer air always spells trouble in the winter.
  19. Matthew70
    Well John has been firm in his warm Novembers usually are a telling sign……
  20. Matthew70
    I hope I eat a lot of crow. At least we are getting some rains. I will take the 50s & rain. Much better than the 33 & rain. lol. I’d love to see a good snow but like you have said. Patterns usually last 6 weeks before they change if I remember correctly? Surprised with all the volcanoes going off that colder wx is not more globally. Strange times for the world.
  21. Matthew70
    I’m thinking for the next month we are looking at another chance at severe wx before we get a chance at cold & snow. We have been up & down with these fronts & temps & it’s only a matter of time before another round happens where cold meets warm.
  22. Matthew70
    Well today just reinforces that tornadoes do follow the same paths or very close to the same paths as previous tornadoes. TN also continues its sad trend of tornado deaths. Today also shows that we are nowhere close to understanding why tornadoes happen.
  23. Matthew70
    I’m sick
  24. Matthew70
    Horrible to see this happening. This has turned into a min outbreak
  25. Matthew70
    Unbelievable what is unfolding here in mid TN.
