ORH_wxman

Getting 9.6" on 12/5 turned out to be the difference (barring something weird happening this month)

No, You are def more than 73". Though 84" might be a bit on the high side if we did a long term average. I don't think the GYX average is 30 years though....I think they only started in 1996. If you included the putrid 1980s into the 1981-2010 normals, then they would be less than 84".

2nd lowest April max all time in ORH during that one with a high of 22F. Only April ‘82 had a colder high (21F).

I got J&J and it was one shot and easy. Had a little soreness in upper arm for a day but that was it.

Too bad we couldn’t see another frame on the Euro just for kicks.

Red Sox? Dude, have you seen the Orioles and Pirates? Rockies? Rangers? I'm sure I"m forgetting several.

Prob a good thing...it will postpone the Mets disappointment a little longer.

Same....I hadn't heard of them until Kevin told all of us on here that we should already know who they are.

Only a matter of months until we become a real life version of I Am Legend.

My only regret in that storm was I didn’t see the snow between about 1am and 6am. That was obscene rates there. Still, seeing thunder snow right as we were getting out of school around 2:15pm was pretty awesome. Vivid flash and loud crack just about 2 seconds behind it while it was absolutely choking aggregates. Couldn’t see more than about 200 yards at that point.

Yes. I was thinking that it wouldn’t be totally weird to see a threat in that 4/8-4/15 range given the look. We did get a solid advisory event on 4/18 last year after all. You never know....get a big ULL and weird things happen. The double barreled back to back snow events on 4/7-4/8 and 4/9-4/10 in 1996 occurred on a big ULL rotating around for a few days.

Correct. You have to get on their list each day. But I got called the first day, lol. They said it happens all the time. They were happy to give it to people and not throw out the doses.

Yeah getting blocky again. That would have been a great pattern 2-3 weeks ago.

I got the J&J shot 3 weeks ago and had no side effects other than a sore upper arm for a day. I managed to get it at the local CVS by getting on their waiting list for “no show” appointments. At the end of each day, if they’ve had any no-shows, they’ll have open viles of the vaccine with doses left in there (they have 5 doses per vile). So they either have to throw them away or use them that day. So that is how to get the vax if you aren’t officially eligible yet. You get on the use-it-or-lose-it list.

'Rhea in April around here is as dependable as Ray b*tching about not jackpotting in a snow threat.

Could probably sneak a series in before Xmas too. Maybe a 12/23-12/24 two gamer?

We had flipped to snow by this point...around 10am we flipped.

Yep, if you are someone who might be planning a big event in the summer and need to pony up $$ up front, why would you just assume that there might not be some sort of restriction implemented at any time in the summer? I wouldn't assume that. Based on the trajectory we are on, we should be totally fine by summer, but you never know. You get a little uptick and all of the sudden you see politicians changing the rules on you with little to no warning. Safer to just postpone it until things look more certain. The plus side is that assuming numbers are absolutely cratered by late May/June as we approach herd immunity, you'll probably see a good market for any summer events given the lower competition...so entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to profit on that excess demand.

Yep, tried to give us a nice week for days and now it's showing plenty of 'rhea like the Euro now.

Nothing will beat back this direction in late March 1956. Here's the old Ashland coop not far from me:

@dendrite is pretty knowledgeable on this stuff. Or at least used to be...lol. We are all getting old now. I used to know some good cheap ones back 10-15 years ago but I haven’t kept up. Ambient is a decent company for that price range. I also recall AcuRite being good. I think they still make solid stations in that 100-200 range. If you’re willing to splurge just a little higher, I think you can get a lower end Davis for 250-300.

I just remember ORH didn’t hit 80 until like 3 weeks into July that summer which is ridiculous. I think it was the longest streak on record. They did hit 80F in the spring but then didn’t hit it again until late July.

1992, 2000, and 2009 were the 3 worst. I think 4th of July in ‘92 was like 56 and rain.

Yeah just like the front range for snowfall....lol. They get blasted in September/October or March/April
