There is media coverage about it, especially with the wildfires out west and the droughts. They are more focused on the debt ceiling and covid. Global warming is the biggest issue to humans. The earth will be fine but the rate of population growth, fossil fuels and tear down of our forests I'm glad I'll be dead by the time it gets too ugly.

Well I turned my A/C back on and its Oct 7th. Likely remains on until next week. Was 78 in my house.

I'm jealous make sure to cheer us on! Biggest game of the season.

Extreme events are becoming more common. But then again in the grand scheme of things we have such limited data on what weather actually occurred on this planet the last 4.5 billion years. I'm sure this planet has seen some scary **** I wish there was a top 10 weather events ever on planet earth since it came into existence. Any guess what they would be? 1.) Meteor 65 million years ago that wiped out the entire planet 2.) 3000 foot tsunami from a giant rockslide off a mountain 3.) Ice Age that froze every piece of water on the planet 4.) 400" of rain in a few weeks.

I'm still swimming.

BUF at +7.4 for the month

I agree with this. Why are their paid commercials on how safe the vaccines are and how important it is to get them. Makes me not want to get it.

This just got leaked. Look how much streamers make on twitch just on donations/subs the last 2 years. Not including sponsorships, youtube, social media, and contracts with twitch. This is how much you can make playing video games all day. These guys make more than professional athletes. https://www.twitchearnings.com/

https://www.livescience.com/south-pole-coldest-winter-record Thanks to the frigid temperatures, sea ice levels around Antarctica were at their fifth highest extent on record in August, the Post reported. But the ice melted rapidly over the next several weeks, and by the end of September sea ice had thinned to some of the lowest levels seen at that time of year. Antarctica's frigid winter temperatures are in contrast to trends in the rest of the world, which overall recorded its fourth hottest summer. In fact, July 2021 was the hottest month ever recorded, Live Science previously reported. "One cold winter is interesting but doesn't change the long-term trend, which is warming," Eric Steig, a professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington, told the Post. In the long term, Antarctica, like the rest of the world, is warming and rapidly losing sea ice

I think the consensus is that you're still going to see anomalous seasons in an otherwise consistent warming trend. Feb 2015 was our coldest all time month but doesn't change the fact that 2015 warmed quite a bit year over year in the general trend line. Winter is only 3 months. You can still get 3 really cold months in a row in any given year.

We likely see Lake Erie break some all time warmth records for October with that forecast.

7 straight days of overnight lows above 60 in almost the middle of October is pretty incredible. Average lows are in the 40s right now.

Southern tip of Greenland? I think there is some green space there.

I told you guys I would be floating in the pool until November this year.

Summer in October

Sunny and mid 70s all week. Perfect fall weather.

I think Oct. finishes with the highest departure of the year if the forecast is right.

Ridge looks to last the next 10 days at least

Average high low for tomorrow is, running about 15-20 above normal. High 62.7 Low: 45.8

Not bad for October Wednesday Partly sunny, with a high near 74. Thursday Partly sunny, with a high near 76. Friday Partly sunny, with a high near 76. Saturday Mostly cloudy, with a high near 72. Sunday Partly sunny, with a high near 74. Columbus Day Partly sunny, with a high near 74. Tuesday Mostly sunny, with a high near 72.

2011-2012 was a Nina, always a chance at a real bad winter in a Nina pattern. The Euro seasonal doesn't look good.

From Ohio. His forecast is the best on the forum IMO My thought is that there's blocking early, probably peaking in December, and then it backs off a bit through January and into February with the cold shifting northwest and more of a gradient pattern setting up as the SE ridge flexes. So I think it is cold early in the GL/OV and then is milder mid-winter. Snow may depend on where you are...up in Wisconsin it may be most active when the blocking relaxes, whereas farther south gets more of their snow when it's colder with more blocking. I think by November we'll have a decent idea on if the early blocking idea will pan out or not. There is an element of "could go either way" still this early.

OHWeather outlook is out

That storm made no sense it was insane
