  1. I would murder someone if this happened.
  2. I guess we can ignore the absolute monster that blows up at bit north and east of us on Christmas Eve. I mean...it's a long way out there, but... Holy fack
  3. I heard that we're going really warm around December 20 and that we're already looking at losing our block. Is that true?
  4. At 96, GFS CAD signature looking better this go 'round, as well. It's been doing this multiple runs in a row now.
  5. I'm OK with getting screwed on this if everyone else gets screwed. Like a big ol' orgy in a rainstorm.
  6. I was in college in central PA. Absurdly awesome winter that year...and then again in ‘95-‘96.
  7. Do it. They won’t be missing any of their quality when fresh, and because they pasteurize those beers now they don’t change much at all over time. It’s just so freakin’ good every year. I’m all about buying from local breweries (and I certainly do that), but BCBS makes it so hard to justify buying arguably lesser-quality barrel-aged stouts at a higher price point.
  8. It’s amazing the Goose Island can pump out an amazing beer like BCBS year after year after year, especially at their volume. Incredible.
  9. Give me a chance to take pictures of the house with Christmas lights and the festive season will be complete. And I guess giving the kids a chance to play in the snow is nice, too.
  10. Interesting to see a non-bombed-out low out bully its way into a high like that with blocking in place. edit: Good track, though, so I suppose it's more about cold than the block.
  11. Good call on that! I'd love to make it out there at some time to see the place and give that beer a whirl!
  12. 50/50 Low, a High just north of the Lakes, and a storm coming out of the Gulf. Not sure what's so promising about that..
  13. I'd like to know how soon I can make a definitive call on how warm it'll be four weeks from now, because I want to drop the bad news first.
  14. He seems generally OK, but I honestly have no idea what any of his posts mean. Porting mages of 10hPa stuff or whatever and just saying "This is really interesting from Eric" doesn't do anything for me. To each their own, of course.
  15. One thing that’s giving me the warm fuzzies is that we see a great look up top develop within 10 days from now and not really relent through the remainder of the run. Looking at the GEFS, we see the -AO and -NAO and a decent look on the Pacific side, as well. It'll suck if we don’t score in the next couple weeks, but if we can set this as the base atmospheric state for the season then we WILL score sooner rather than later.
  16. Someone in my neighborhood posted on Facebook that there were flurries earlier. I'm sitting in the second-floor home office right by the window and haven't seen anything. Of course, I'm too dedicated a worker to have more than a few cursory looks outside, so I leave it to all the slackers out there to report for me.
  17. Or you can put him on ignore. Just sayin'...
  18. As soon as you see the back edge on the radar.
  19. I understand the take that we have seemed to turn milder around the solstice in the recent past, but I think using the word "clear" when referring to the pattern we'll be in four weeks from today is fraught with danger. You could be right and we do turn warmer, but I honestly think it's a toss up this far out.
  20. This place really can be the worst.
  21. So...on November 30, you're saying that it's clear that we're going to change to warmer around Christmastime? I just want to be sure I'm reading you right...that we're clear on what the temperature regime will be about four weeks from now.
  22. BWI: 17” DCA: 9” IAD: 19” RIC: 9” Tiebreaker SBY: 7”
  23. Aside from Wednesday and Thursday, it’s been in the 70s with sun for the last week here in HHI, and it looks to continue well into next week. Really can’t be beat.
  24. Gotta admit...I've never been so disinterested in/unconcerned with long-range winter outlooks than I am this year. It just feels like the new regime we're in means that we can't rely on so many of the lessons learned in the last 50 years. Interesting exercise for the long-rangers, no doubt, but I just can't get into worrying about it.
