  1. I hope so, we have been 7-10'd a lot this summer down here.
  2. I am seeing ridge west, trough centered around ORD, and a big old WAR. Looking hurricane-ish?
  3. Centralia, in down-state Illinois, seems like a pleasant spot today....94/81.
  4. Nah, I'm bad luck. It never snows when I start the thread.
  5. Do we dread August so much that we will eschew the monthly thread?
  6. I drove through Monterey a few days later. Amazing to see acres upon acres of trees snapped like matchsticks about 15' off the ground.
  7. As I understand the AI models, they do initialize with the same data as the physical models....radiosonde, satellite, etc. So they aren't completely "anti-physics". The AI models already seem to be ahead of the physical models in many respects, although in my entirely empirical observation, the physics models are still better within a few days. A blend is indicated now, but I agree, quantum computing will change everything.
  8. Why the skepticism? Even at ECMWF, they say the AIFS beats the ECMWF in the majority of cases. They do feel that the physics-based models are better at handling the extreme events, which makes sense, in that extreme events have little historical precedent. It would seem that a combination of the two is the best approach now, but I would look for AI to become the go-to soon. Then comes quantum computing, ha ha!
  9. Enjoy the heat and dews while you can. The Captain has come over the intercom and asked us to extinguish our smoking materials and put our seats in the upright position. Our descent into autumn has begun!
  10. AI has been rock solid. Are you still using physics-based models?
  11. Pretty good model agreement that summer comes to an ignominious end in about a week. We break the backbone! Jeez I hate summer.
  12. One hell of a cell south of LI. Almost constant lightning.
  13. Damn, I was working landscaping in August of 77. Must have been brutal.
  14. Interesting article in today's NYT on AI forecasting. Although, I had to laugh at the author's statement that "the NWS forecasts have fallen behind those of the European Centre"....like this is a new development. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/13/business/windborne-weather-noaa-cuts.html?unlocked_article_code=1.WU8.dSgd.U1XxjVdMfQ3a&smid=url-share
  15. So, for the last four decades winter storms have shifted away from the east coast? How much of our taxpayer funded grant money went into this load of shit? Don't get me twisted, I am not denying that the earth is warming....different issue....but WTF is this?
