  1. Merry Christmas on this day with ample sun and blue skies!!! #GodBlessTheSunbelt
  2. I'm guessing that 46*F is from when the University of Chicago was the main order station (so a stronger UHI influence) as that particular record is from 1936.
  3. Surprisingly, the current record high minimum for today at ORD is 37*F (set in 2019). And I say surprisingly because 37*F does feel low (but that's just a hunch, I have nothing empirical to back that up with). I doubt 52*F (or more specifically, 50*F at ORD) holds, but even several degrees lower than that would still shatter the record.
  4. Palm Dude's trolling wouldn't be nearly as bad if he came up with a new schtick. At this point, it's just so low effort and predictable.
  5. I'm sure @michsnowfreak has a logical explanation behind his comment with some form of data to back it up. And I can certainly agree that the broader upper level pattern in 2011 vs. 2023 is nothing alike. But I will say, comparing the anomalies for yalls' part of the country (as well as the snowcover maps), there are definitely some similarities. But this, of course, doesn't mean a whole lot with respect to how the rest of the season will evolve.
  6. Oh, he definitely gon' learn, lol... I remember the other guy from the Atlanta area a few years ago who about lost his mind when he realized how cloudy it is up there.
  7. The gloomy skies and stratiform rains is the awful part I see (granted, this is normal climo for yalls' neck of the woods), not so much the temps or duration of precip.
  8. Aqua Teen Hunger Force. EDIT: I take fault for that. I accidentally typed "in" instead of "on."
  9. Yes. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/watch-out-tornado-alley-is-migrating-eastward/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41612-018-0048-2
  10. Right. Will have to wait until after New Years in order for the days in totality to get longer.
  11. December 2021 was definitely unprecedented severe weather wise. Had 2 of the worst outbreaks in history, let alone in December or in the winter time. DFW also shattered its record warmest December on record by a whopping 7.3 degrees, warm enough that it even surpassed all but 10 of the warmest Novembers on record.
  12. Saw this on Reddit, taken in Goodlettsville (northern suburb of Nashville).
  13. You have a point, but you're taking the banter too seriously. People are just frustrated about the general pattern, and the evolution of the storm that thread was created for only added to the frustration. People tend ot become irrationally flippant when they're frustrated.
  14. Isn't that par for the course for your neck of the woods in a normal winter though?
  15. So in other words, the same as every winter...
  16. 2nd biggest snowstom for Detroit (~19") .. Biggest was back in the 1880s (in April at that) with ~23" ~2 feet
