Let's assume that you're right. Shouldn't we still try to stop the affects of whatever bullshit you're talking about? Don't exactly see why we'd be okay with losing land to the ocean. And rising temperatures are just one very small part of a much greater issue. You can't blame the sun for driving countless species to extinction or absolutely trashing the developed world. I don't get how greenhouse gasses are such a mystery to people. How does it not make sense to you that burning a fuck load of fuel and letting all of the products of the reaction sit in the atmosphere might not be a great idea for the future?

I agree that it's very obnoxious that society seems to try very hard to put the blame on individuals (plastic straws, etc) while we largely ignore the impact of industrial/corporate contributions. And yeah, the rest of the world is also gonna be a bitch. But as far as weather models are concerned?

If you were paying attention you'd know that the GFS was lagging a full day behind literally every other model with this storm until about two days ago. No idea where you're getting your info from. I also have no intention of arguing with you because people that actually think climate change doesn't exist are beyond reason. There was never a W to pick up in the first place. Dumbass.

I think there's a correlation between arguing the GFS is the best performer and denying climate change. On a weather forum of all places. Nonce.

I feel like it's actually been a while since we've had one of these, even a weak/se failure mode one. The bar is already so low that there's really nothing to lose.

Yep. I'm in that phase where you act like if you only check the models once a day then maybe the snowstorms will stop being shy.

Me neither, deep down. I think a real weenie by definition can't get used to it. But it was really looking so golden -timing, trends, etc- that I let myself be fooled.

What's this new compassion

Nice to hear that there's at least a chance for a chance or two to emerge but honestly being teased with feet of snow for Christmas burned me so bad that I'm genuinely numb now. No nerve endings left

Fog tonight here in Aurora is unreal. You physically cannot see street lights a quarter mile away

Honestly I'll take the chance of one of like four thread the needle events working out over trying to will an actual even into existence because that hasn't worked for shit either lately.

Snowing lightly already. I'm just glad we have snow for Christmas.

I will view all the plumes to get to six plus

That low is gonna ride right through n in and bury us

I was/am in the acceptance phase, but whenever the radar starts lighting up I get carried away anyway. I'm just glad that it won't be raining on Christmas.

Officially in the phase where I hope the storm just goes AWOL and deliberately spites all guidance and blasts N IL with a meter of snow.

I've had absolute tunnel vision since the conception of the current thread but yeah, it looks a little rough around the edges for the coming weeks. Honestly, I need to recharge my weenie drives anyway so I'm not complaining.

Anyone wanna start a bet on how many days it'll be till the next thread is opened in our subforum?

Does it qualify as long duration though

Damn, makes me wanna view your plumes

So how strong of winds exactly can we expect to see here in N IL

We dont need much to it get back to ne illinois. Baby steps and a slight trajectory change upstream and you have something. Model bleed has slowed for now. I'd say we're in the scabbing over phase rn, now we just need rapid cellular reconstruction and the wound shall heal. Still have a couple days. Edit: Don't care if it's a pipe dream, some of us troll about palm trees and some of us default to the worst from day 1 so I'm gonna cram my shamelessly tone deaf optimism into every one of your faces

The icon is, in fact, a small tick to the west again. Could just be noise but at least we've stopped the bleeding. For now.

Holy shit

They could still probably knock at least a few hours off of their commute time by just coming in Thursday for sure
