The Weekend Rule

Kind of a weird move. Trae is a hooper, but the Wiz give up a ton of points and this doesn’t improve that. They might be trying to avoid losing their protected pick and thinking that CJ isn’t the longterm solution anyway.

The impatient, ungrateful part of me has a minimum of a 6-10” snowstorm as a requirement, but it’s January and it should feel like winter, so I’ll take 2-4”+. I’m done with cartoppers, though. They’re cute in winters that are legit, but not as the primary theme.

It’s funny because the name is somewhat original and makes sense from a DC point of view, but the brand appeal just isn’t there. Similar issue the Wizards have faced.

Sun has finally popped a bit more the last hour or so. It’s gonna be difficult for me to work past 4 today.

Mostly cloudy here lol. Too far south for snow and too far north for sun?

We’re due for a massive overrunning snow event.

And even more outstanding when out hooping or out biking. But just being out walking or standing might be outstanding, too, after the last month or two.

Did not expect this level of mild to start the day. Feels outstanding outside.

We may have no choice, but to accept a snowstorm during that timeframe.

I think the lack of sun hurt. When the sun popped out for even a few mins yesterday, I noticed the difference.

Just biked a loop around my hood and my hands didn’t get cold until the very end. The thaw was delayed, but denied.

The biggest issue I’m facing is that my plan of getting more sun by often complaining about the lack of it, isn’t working.

I miss the days when we had an active southern stream and occasional NS shortwave to time a snowstorm instead of the other way around.

It’s gotten really weird. Seems like it’s cloudy 5 days a week now.

I’m kinda hyped about the warmup this week, but I think I’ll be officially ready for a snowstorm by next week. I’m in for 2 months of tracking followed by March Madness.

We’re due for a CFP championship mecs.

You guys didn’t tell me that it was still windy here.

It’s pretty evident just looking at the h5 maps. It’s been difficult to get a shortwave under our latitude. Probably need both the Pacific and Atlantic to cooperate better. I’m not convinced it’s one or the other, though would obviously make sense that the Pacific is more important for the overall jet stream. If there’s blocking, but a steroidal NS, then I guess we end up with an array of clippers that lack a gulf tap. If the Pac relaxes and we get a healthy ejection of energy from the SW, but no blocking, then we end up on the warm side?

Sun is popping out here. The thaw has commenced. In other news, I was concerned my car might not start after sitting outside BWI for over 3 weeks, but no issues (2 yr old battery)…so that was kinda cool.

Going from the Redskins to Commanders and Bullets to Wizards was wild stuff.

I was always a little concerned about Jayden’s durability compared to a more stocky build player like Caleb. Hopefully they can get him to be an elite passer and not just a playmaker type because he’s really not built for it longterm. And of course, a thoroughbred rb would help.

Taking the reciprocal of a winning season is anti-ideal.

I didn’t make it past the 3rd quarter, but watched the highlights. Ouch.

I’d hate to hear your thoughts on the Commanders lol.
