It's a student named Gabriel Gans. I try to patronize the college as much as possible. Some of the soloists are excellent. And some just good. But supporting the performing arts is important regardless.
I have plans for the symphony at Shenandoah University on Sat the 15th. Including Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35. I hope I am heading there on cross country ski's. I posted this because I know you are into the symphony as well.
The big ones always get sniffed out early. And if we are being honest the models have been signaling this for days already. I think a historic stretch is coming for all of us.
That whole winter seems like a decent analog to me. We had cold early that just kept lingering. That storm hit with a +NAO, +AO and a -PNA. Neutral enso as well. I dont know what the upper air maps looked like for that storm though.
Looks like the pattern breaks down mid March. Which is perfect timing imo. Maybe we will get a real spring this year after a historic 4-5 week period of winter?
