I'd be careful with the Euro Ai. That baby's running at 30 petaflops . That's a hell of a lot more flops than were used to. -

Both playoff games today also featured some winter weather. I feel like many of us can feel something's brewing as a collective . I don't feel like I see that here too often regardless a model outputs . Interesting -

This is actually not unusual at all. You're seeing the laws of thermodynamics and physics at play. There's latent heat being produced by the freezing process and by friction itself . -

It's pukeing snow here at the moment fellows.I've already surpassed anything I've received yesterday morning. I'm not surprised by the start of sleet here. In the pictures I posted yesterday morning you can clearly see that almost all the precipitation I received in my area was graupel while others not far away had much better flake quality. Obviously rates were an issue in my area, but thermals were suspect also here. -

I don't believe I got the initial shot of snow at my house,but I have received around 1/8" of sleet, and I'm finally transitioning to snow here. -

Taken from nws forecast discussion Across southeast PA, the forecast is a bit more complicated.Marginal temperatures and less moisture content will limitsnowfall accumulations somewhat, but the latest batch of 06Zguidance paints the potential for as much as a couple inches ofsnow Saturday afternoon as upper level divergence providessufficient lift for an area of snow to develop. Low confidenceat this time, but the forecast may need to be adjusted upwardsin the next 24 hours if confidence increases. -
January 2026 Medium/Long Range Discussion

No, its complete d bag shit for the mentally ill once you step outside fantasy land. AI Overview +9 Likes and online approval/disapproval foster addiction, damage self-esteem through constant comparison to unrealistic ideals, fuel anxiety and depression, encourage superficial "gamified" social interactions, and can lead to negative behaviors like seeking validation through risky posts or becoming susceptible to manipulation, all while distorting genuine human connection for dopamine hits . Psychological Impacts Addiction & Dopamine: Likes trigger dopamine, creating a reward loop that can become addictive, similar to gambling. Lowers Self-Esteem: Unfavorable social comparison to curated "perfect" lives leads to feelings of inadequacy and lower self-worth. Anxiety & Depression: Chasing likes and fearing disapproval creates stress, anxiety, and can worsen mental health. Fear of Missing Out (FOMO): Seeing others' activities can trigger feelings of exclusion and inadequacy. Social & Behavioral Impacts Superficiality: "Gamified" sociality reduces complex interactions to metrics (likes/dislikes), hindering deep connections. Unrealistic Standards: Influencers promote unattainable beauty and lifestyle standards, distorting reality. Manipulation: Platforms use these metrics to keep users engaged, while users manipulate content for validation. Communicative Laziness: The ease of a "like" discourages thoughtful engagement and nuanced discussion. Negative Feedback Loop Disapproval Hurts: A lack of likes or receiving dislikes can be particularly damaging, leading to insecurity, isolation, and even more desperate posting to get validation. Echo Chambers: Upvotes and downvotes can amplify certain opinions, making it harder to encounter diverse viewpoints and fueling negativity or extremism.
