Those are actually really interesting points, thanks. I believe that's straight up the foundation of the house and (for anything it's worth) I think the sump pump discharge goes right below there too. And definitely facing south-ish as well. The more you know

Right. And I'm sure Joe wouldn't be shocked if we reel a storm in either after all in a week or two, since he never really recanted his prior optimism in favor of remaining aloof. My point is that the second issues like sun angle and shit become a problem, I'd rather just save our year-to-year pretend climo snowfall luck for next season. If we miraculously manage to mitigate whatever warmup is locked in and we reel in a monster 10-14 days from now, great. Too bad we couldn't get it in December. Normally I'd be here excited for the DABs we've got coming but again, it's completely futile because we're completely resetting next week it seems. I understand this is a personal banter take but -

Yeah basically looks like the rest of the season can be written off at this point. First torch is already locked in and after that I'd rather just save the ol' climo luck points for next season -
The amount of happy chemicals my brain managed to derive from a ten-minute lunch break dog walk in 28 and sunny almost just shot me straight through "I guess I'd still take a big dawg" season.

I thought it was upgraded because they expect potentially less large breaks at least for the city proper, whereas this start is progressing about as expected no? Up by Milwaukee looks good, I understand that all to at least drift through the city in the next few hours -

The sky is in full Threads mode today with bright sun fighting through otherwise completely uniform overcast skies. Dust has already been falling for hours. It kind of feels reminiscent of the eclipse the other year -

I guess that's exactly what I do, just try and analyze differences run to run. Where I guess I break down is understanding why models show what they do and recognizing, for example, synoptic setups conducive to constructive phasing in a general sense. In this case, I can look at 500mb geo height maps all day and see where different pieces of energy are coming from. Looks like shit from the Pacific (?) and some crap riding down the rockies (?) could conceptually come together, but the setup is otherwise seemingly too progressive (?) Now, there's still a moderate HP center out in front of this, but obviously its impact is much less than in our last system where iirc heights kept building slightly over canada with every run instead of trending the opposite way (?) Obviously this is a major oversimplification but that's the point I suppose - I wish I knew how Again, I am not trying to equate this system with the last or say I have any hopes for it. It's just the next upcoming case study.
