  1. this is a possibilty... but, i don't know the first thing about forecasting...getting my masters isn't going to teach me the operational forecasting meat and potatoes you get through undergrad...which is what i'm interested in... i have thought about going into the Air Force
  2. I'm also a bit touchy on the Vet subject...being a Vet, and underemployed...well, I might as well face it...when i was employed, i was underemployed, except my job ended last friday...so now i'm just unemployed... first off, in govt jobs, you don't block people just by being a Vet...you have to have the schooling and the experience for the job you are applying for...Vets just don't get handed jobs...if Nick and I both apply for the same NWS job...and we are the only two applicants...he's going to get the job because he has his degree and he has been working as a Met...my Vet status won't count for crap... so for those of you who had thought otherwise, you are wrong and you need not post anymore on this subject...
  3. well, i have been keeping an eye on this topic...truthfully, this thread brings up one of my biggest concerns since i'm thinking about putting in the effort and money to finish up my met degree...is it worth it? what happens if i take out more loans (i already have a BS ) and put in the time to go back to school, but then can't find crap for work? or not end up doing anything with my degree? (that would make two degrees i'm not doing anything with) i wrestle with that reality, a lot...
  4. thanks MTBLANC! gorgeous as always!!! you live in a special place!!! and you are a hearty soul...i could summer there...but i think the winter would surely kick my butt!!!
  5. how do you dress when you go outside? how do you keep your house warm??? i can't even imagine these temperatures...
  6. When i was a freshmen at Lyndon State College back in the late 1990's...i experienced cold approaching this magnitude...during a flipping fire alarm at about 2-3am...i did not like it...at all!!! I don't know how y'all in AK survive!!! you have bigger cojones than i do, that's for sure!!!
  7. this one was epic!!! school was canceled m-w!

  19. hey, just wondering where you have been? you haven't really been active in the monsoon threads :( the desert monsoon is my absolute favorite and this season has been so productive in terms of consecutive storms that produce rain, and not just lightning...hope everything is ok! please come back to the monsoon thread soon! :)
