basketball officiating?  i could have blocked 10+ shots a game in highs school since i could jump over 44 inches which was about 1.5feet higher than any opponent......BUT the refs called fouls on every blocked shot so i stopped doing it freshman year......refs have a hard job but very few do it well.

how do you get freezing rain when the ground temp is above 32 and the air temp as well above 32?

please remember the psyche ward in your prayers tonight, they are in total meltdown

4th warmest year = cooler now than the previous 3 years.....

the psyche ward is in a frenzy today

not trying to tell anybody how or what to post, i do enjoy humor, and enjoy very much watching storms as they evolve which is easy to do in todays world......

are observations limited to my own back yard? or can observations made about low location and movement ok?....we will have to agree to disagree with the concept that models are REAL weather

how is anybody proven "wrong" BEFORE the storm even arrives????

define "real weather"...

what is happening outside, the radar showing where precip is falling, the front lines showing where fronts are the animations showing where stuff is moving.......honestly asking what is the real weather is part of my points,you seriously needed to ask that?

Hey, Bill.  That's what the pattern threads are for.  Banter is for all things non-weather related even though some of them touch on weather.  Even the pattern threads can get a little dicey at times when the weather isn't particularly exciting.

the pattern thread is full of negative banter and cliff jumping, that is the point for me the models are discussed into the ground and the real weather is almost never mentioned......

is there any website where the actual WEATHER is discussed?????

Speak for yourself. I don't enjoy watching rain headed my way.

i only get to post for myself never claimed to be speaking for anybody else......and i do enjoy watching the storm as it begins and evolves....the outcome for my back yard is irrelevant

fun times underway, the actual storm is in view and can be watched as it moves towards the SE..........

the real weather forecasters are active here today, the birds are eating every crumb in the area......

i speculate that the entire forum ill not see a big snow but more than half of the SE will see snow on the ground and a few locations will be on the high side of the forecasts.....caveat i am not counting florida

Exactly. Who is funding the Heritage , Heartland Foundations and other DC think tanks that come up with denier meme's?  Wealthy petrodollars.  So this particular meme is pure hypocrisy. The reality is that climate scientists could be making much more money on Wall Street or in myriad other careers. While Koch is stuck in the oil business.

so you guys claim EVERY job and field on this planet are the exact same as the job mann has?????    this is why communication is difficult that claim is MORONIC.......barbers, electricians plumbers all spend how much time seeking government grants please?????  "exact same dynamics"   words have meaning and those words are utterly FALSE.

no apology needed, i took no offense at your comment

hr rambler, i saw your comment my favorite place is not the psyche ward....it really is anywhere the actual weather is discussed.....btw i am a graduate of the professional academy of broadcasting in knoxville circa 1984

to avoid any confusion i will now refer to the other board as the psyche ward....they need a swat team in the ward a full page of total banter, with some clown calling the storm a BUST today

any ground truth in dyersburg? and soon maybe union city and memphis?

Correct, they don't define the scientific consensus on climate topics.  If you want some great evidence of the fraud going on, please do some reading on this link. There are 180 pages of examples to go through but it's quite revealing.

you are victim of the strawman tactic on that post......a position nobody has taken about mann and curry was indeed shot down......

bdgwx.........with all due respect you say you deal with the "hard science" but you often mention the consensus, do YOU really think"hard science" is ever done by consensus?   do you think even soft science is done by consensus?????       the point is NO science refers to consensus....

Nobody claims that CO2 is the dominating factor in Earth's equilibrium temperature (T).

what is this equilibrium temperature please?  seems that would be when there is no climate change and th temperature remains the same for a very long time.....no such state of equilibrium is evident in any record....i submit rather thermodynamics makes the overall system SEEK balance(equilibrium)but can never find it because too many factors constantly change and no such state can be achieved.

>>>that the Earth is warming and that anthroprogenically modulated physical processes are dwarfing the naturally modulated physical process today.  <<<

TY for confirming your religious dogma.....that claim is the co2 humans release is more powerful that the SUN......the claim co2 drives the temperature on earth is IDIOCY and NO science of any kind backs that idiotic claim.

i know a bit about the game of basketball as my avatar shows with a picture from college in november of 1971
