  1. Strong PV= Cold spring =good for spring marathons BUT Does not equal "good for the planet" Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  2. As long as you never turn on the heat, you can generally get the house cool enough that it will stay semi-comfortable without AC except in extended blowtorch patterns. Truth be told-- heat is optional in our area of the country - AC is not (if you still want to be productive). Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  3. Anyone know what the state all-time record is for October? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  4. 94/96/97 last 3 days. Looking at 97/98 today but I wouldn't be shocked if we hit 100 either. The previous all-time high for October in Memphis was 95 (set 3 times). Very "impressive" - to say the least. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  5. 100 officially. First 100 here in 4 years (which is amazing in itself) - but on September 16th, no less. I'd put exclamation points on all that but I'm not happy about any of this weather. They are cancelling fall sports events for the youth here due to heat. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  6. KMEM has just hit 95 before noon, on this, the 16th day of September, 2019.
  7. Personally, I like the cool temps, so bring it! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  8. These are things to be happy about! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  9. Wow, guys- I admit I'm a bit jealous. Still, I'll be able to have a chance for a nice run at 16F in the AM- I don't imagine that's possible at 25 below! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  10. Got in 10 miles this AM before church with a wind chill of 12. Just rode home with the windows down-- soaking up this fresh air! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  11. Did you see the pics in the main thread of possible trees debarked and boxcars overturned (presumably along 231 in northeast PC) ? I think you'll find that very much in support of what you're saying. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  12. Screw it- I enjoy the free speech - trolls notwithstanding. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  13. The main thread had devolved when everyone really wants to know if they'll be able to "party with thousands" soon again. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  14. I've made that drive before between Panama City and Port St. Joe and your perception is correct. There's a reason that people like Josh didn't go over there- lack of options.
  15. Mexico Beach-- there's just no shelter there. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  16. Where on Mexico Beach? Have you been there? PCB is the eastmost point along the shoreline that has structures with a reasonably good chance of surviving without structural failure. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  17. How much is all the property in the region worth?
  18. You didn't actually "get" Ivan unless you were on Perdido Key. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  19. Thanks! There may be some dry air in the upper levels but that should mix out some when this gets caught in Michael's circulation. For a long time now, things have felt more reminiscent of August or early September than of October. Our dewpoints (and overnight lows) have been way, way above normal (consistently +10 to +15) for weeks now and that's been a southeast phenomenon. That's not to say dry air entrainment won't occur (it does that in August, too, ala Katrina) but I would expect that dry air punch to be like you'd expect from an August hurricane rather than an October one. Also consider that the shallow shelf waters are going to not provide much in the way of cooling the way they typically would. Obviously, this thing will have to undergo RI for any of that mean much, though. If it does rapidly strengthen, then the rapid forward motion isn't likely to allow much time for either to do its work, though.
  20. What's the scale on that map? Dewpoint is 68 at Memphis right now, 68 at JAN, and it's 70 in Albany, GA. That's not exactly a huge differential.
  21. I live in the southeast and, if people are thinking this is going to be weakened by dry air entrainment from off land, I think they'll be disappointed. There is no dry air in the southeast just like there hasn't been since May. It's all still one big swamp here- and I'll say that's the difference between now and say- Hurricane Lili. Now, I heard there may be some dry air over the Yucatan but this thing isn't going to be gagging on dry air from the north this time.
  22. Great illustration of why I have no desire to live in Florida. Nice to visit but a terrible place to live. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  23. It is appalling and it's another discussion entirely but that's why people can't agree on "facts" anymore. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
  24. Unfortunately, I have to work these days or I'd happily go. The only time I ever chased was during Ivan and we were significantly inland. We couldn't even figure out how to get past the contaflow but- yeah-- if I could make a living doing it and had the resources of a network, I wouldn't hesitate to do it. That's not saying I wouldn't be scared-- I'm sure I'd be terrified at times - - but I'd know that going in and I'd know that there's at least some risk- no matter how well you plan (and I would plan extremely thoroughly) -that things could still go wrong.
