    got a off weather topic for all you who partake in the edibles etc...my wife's source is no longer carrying her favorite space bar chocolate edible, can anyone point my to where I might be able to find them, she's got a legit gluten allergy so those were the only ones she was able to eat without issues. Appreciate any info. thanks

    Check Insa’s site and they have a springfield location to pickup.

    I don't know if you pay much attention to the LPGA but have you seen what Nelly Korda has been doing?  5 wins in a row including the season's first major yesterday.

    Yes I heard. I don’t watch per say but I’m tuned into the pga sirius xm frequently.
     

    So many great players on both tours so I’m not sure why golf ratings are low.

    I’m disappointed that Scheffler ran away with it. He played great but I was hoping someone would have stepped up and at least make it close. 

    Yea. It was a low TV rating. Lacked the drama on the back nine.

    I believe that was it. Don’t remember anything of significance since that event. 
     

    I’m up the hill between exit 15 and 16 off 84. East side of town. 

    @The 4 SeasonsI think there may have been a 1-2” penny event post 2/17. Do you recall one on a saturday in late Feb away from the shoreline?

    This is the third and final update to the season snowfall maps for Winter 2023-2024, as of April 10th 2024. If there's any additional accums ill update it.

    I've been going back and creating new seasonal snowfall maps for the past 25 years for SNE so i changed the ranges from 10 to 20" ranges to feet so it's now 6"  to 12" to 24" and this will be the same for all the other maps. 

    If anyone has any corrections or additional reports i will gladly add them, just let me know. Everything on here is pulled from the SNE snow page by Kevin, COOP, CoCoRahs, climo sites and NOAA NOHRSC.

    The Aug 22, 2044 (Aug 23 in UT) eclipse would be visible from Alberta and parts of BC, Yukon and Alaska towards sunset, and only lasts a minute or two. Evening cloud cover in late August is quite a high probability in the Rockies and I would think best chances could be further northwest (or near Lethbridge AB).

    The Aug 12, 2045 eclipse crosses the US in a path similar to the 2017 event, a bit further south, northern Utah to south FL are in the path and it lasts a full six minutes. Skies are often clear in Utah in August especially in range of 0930-1130h local when this eclipse will happen there. 

    From a distance, I would take my chances on the 2045 event although the 2044 event is very close to my location anyway. We will probably have teleportation by then anyway, right? 

    I see why Dendy wants nothing to do with 2044 now. Thanks.

    Not sure. I have a couple decades to figure it out. :lol:

    I’ll have to check out % poss sunshine climo for August. C FL would be nice, but I wouldn’t want to chance seabreeze convection. 

    It’s always a good idea to be proactive and plan ahead…like installs in early March.
