  1. Thank you. I will go with this mentality. I prefer the optimistic viewpoint. I check the numbers everyday at 10 am or as soon as they're updated and every day I am looking for a decrease in the metrics. You are correct - its a marathon and maybe I should check once a week instead.
  2. Another day and another increase in every metric. What ever happened to "15 days to flatten the curve". I just have this feeling that even if we stay this course the entire month of May the numbers will still keep going up. I don't know what to think anymore.
  3. Interesting. It's tempting but $170 is pretty steep just to be curious.
  4. Trying to find slivers of good news. Today's data of +509 cases in Maryland is the lowest daily increase since 326 new cases on April 6. But like weather models, one day does not make a trend.
  5. Answer: For 1 to 13 odds for winning; Probability of: Winning = (0.0714) or 7.1429% Losing = (0.9286) or 92.8571% "Odds for" winning: 1:13 "Odds against" winning: 13:1 .
  6. It's really gotten bad when the most we can hope for in the climatologically favored snowless February is a potential rumble of thunder and wind shift in the middle of the night with overcast skies and little surface instability. Maybe a special radio show is in order?
  7. We only do that here. For every threat. :--)
  8. I thought PD1 was in 2003 and PDII was in 2006. Am i wrong about that?
  9. I have one but can't post till Sunday. Check back.
  10. This was my favorite image from Snowmageddon. I had been hyping this storm to my Facebook Profile for 4 days prior to the storm. I was going BIG the whole way (thanks to this Board - well, I mean the predecessor Board, but same folks). 36 hours before Snowmageddon started, I posted "2.8 - 3.2 QPF !!!!!" on Facebook. Of course nobody knew what that meant, so my post read "If this storm verifies, it will be the largest storm in history to ever hit Baltimore (it wasn't - that was "officially" February 15-18, 2003) (see footnote 1 below). When people asked me what that meant, I said "28 to 32 inches". Many gave me a "like" button, some said "Bring it", etc., but all the other posters made comments such as "nobody else on tv is/are calling for that" (remember that was 36 hours prior to start). When it verified, I was a local hero to my Facebook friends. And when I hit again on last weeks storm when TV was at "low qpf and rain", I became their official winter met (again thanks to all you). Look at that thing (carefully) !!!! Do you see that? It is touching CANADA and COSTA RICA at the same time!!!! My comment when I posted to Facebook was simply "Here she comes!" And look behind that storm back in the Pac NW. You know what that was, right? That was Snowmageddon II. Such an AWESOME winter last year. Adam Footnote 1: First, it must be remembered that Snowmageddon was an event, not a storm. There were two storms within, more or less, 3 days. I will call them "Snowmageddon I" and "Snowmageddon II". But was "Snowmageddon I" the recordbreaker at BWI? You see, when it comes to measuring snow, the people at BWI, well, they "did it wrong". See http://baltimore.cbs...t-bwi-marshall/ Snowmageddon (the event) apparently also caused this controversy: http://weblogs.maryl..._all_ranke.html Unless I am mistaken, to-date we do not have an "official" calculation for Snowmageddon I at BWI.
