Yes but tbf everyone in the business is looking for clicks. That’s the business.

Cranky is a hack. Lots of beer and edibles in here today.

I thought NAM was chasing convection off of the SE coast possibly messing up this run.

This. Also I want to add that rural living people have worse health outcomes primarily due to the lack of access to care. It is much more common for doctors to stay in the city or suburbs. So while rural living may be healthier in many ways, people have less access to healthy food, poorer internet connectivity, poor access to doctors. This country needs to prioritize equalizing broadband for everyone-it is a necessity. We also should be giving incentives for medical providers to care for rural based patients. Honestly whenever I think of moving seriously rural I run into the conundrum of how to care for my wife and I as we get older and older. So we stay put.

I turned 64 ahead of a great winter stretch. Time flies. I thought having more free time in semi retirement would slow it down but it feels like it’s speeding up!

It’s somewhat quacky. I’ve come to realize that the main driver of longevity is luck. But I had an old friend nearing 100 in good shape who always said that people with a sunny disposition who can manage the inevitable crises of life live longer. Attia makes some good points but a lot of it is just common sense. I’m 78 and fine and frankly convinced that it’s mainly due to luck plus privilege plus the determination to ignore people’s advice and power through aches and pains. Prioritize strength training, walking at least 5 miles per day, omnivore eating, and fiber. I’ve prioritized fiber now for 50 years based on readings when I was in my late 20s. The worst is processed foods and sugar. Also statins for many of us are wonder drugs.

What value does that have for you?

Honestly by d5 that’s not even noteworthy.

Through 12/16: BOS: -2.1 ORH: -1.7 PVD: -3.0 BDL: -0.6 * The takeaway is the cold didn’t make the month snowy. Some got snow on weird ways but the biggest qpf events were rain.

For day 15?

He missed 2014-15 I think. That stings

"Shorter of breath, one day closer to death...."

Euro will determine dead or alive as the tie breaker.

Old runs

For the record George is not the same as he was a few years ago. He’s educated himself and has become a knowledgeable poster.

Euro almost always overdoes long range cold. The only exception in my memory is the extreme cold that gave BOS its coldest reading in 65 years in February 2023. Euro nailed that from a week or more out.

Ok I'm going to say it even though it irks me that people use this expression. "They deserve it"

Too bad you weren’t around then. Tip melted violently. Only surpassed by his Valentine’s Day melt.

FYP

I need the primary so far north like I need a 3rd armpit.....

It nailed Boston and the immediate area inside 128 pretty good with 18+ in many areas including mine at the time and probably where i currently live.

I think the potential for bigger snows are there for 2 but the last few years haven't had any blockbusters.

I'm surmising the original pit in GC. Pit1 is in Westborough and Pit2 is coastal SE ME. Mike do I have that right?

I think normal high for 12/25 in most of NNE is already AOB freezing.

Euro snows on us Boxing Day. But in the less clowny range, I kind of like where we stand right now on the models for next weekend. Let's see what happens when the lead wave hits NOAM today and tonight.
