  1. That posts is almost intolerably fantastic -
  2. I you know I have trouble remembering that one... I was living in Acton at the time, teenager ... I don't remember a big snow storm but I know the reference etc... But I remember one afternoon, we had partial leaf out - is that the one? I think it was like the 24th or 25th ...something late in the month. We were cold rain in the afternoon, and I remember right around as dusk was coming on the rain was over to snow at about the same rate as the light faded - I'm not sure if that's the same event though. I remember walking up to the gym to get my 2 hours of basketball pick-up games in when I should have been doing homework ... heh, and noting the snow was sticking to the maple leafs.... etc. But it didn't like cut power or anything and I don't recall much else about that event. damn
  3. OH wholeheartedly It's on me though... droll and context smearing is like 10-10-10 in the garden bed of "Facebook Fights" ( showcased program around Va Beach radio that's hilarious - ) ...why should we be any different in here. Like ALL the other aspects that missive ham-fisted discussed in way more detail... if someone has genetic comorbidities ...that's preposterous to think they are at fault. If we really want to get into the empathy of it...some people have "unhealthy" life-style habits because they are mentally hurting and its viced ... you know, sneaky uncles, or just blurred boundaries in an enmeshed family upbringing, or a vague or badly constructed history in the regard in general, and they end up with weird complexes as adults... Jesus- just give me cigarettes and a coffee house poetry reading and leave me alone... That sort of thing... In reality, it's just an infection - and it's just science telling us statistics. It's up to those to understand the stats and then figure out what they wanna do with the information, and assholes like me trying to be cutesy droll and funny ... well, not always going to land on folks as funny. sorry heh
  4. You mean like 'lort' and what is wrong with pointing out a definition exactly ?
  5. Seems evidentially nested in the definitions for the word .. There's not semantic room here like you I suspect you are after - you are not talking to an idiot .... Any act that flouts potential consequence fits this general conception. im•mor•al ĭ-môr′əl, -mŏr′- ► adj. Contrary to established moral principles. Not moral; not conforming to or consistent with the moral law; unprincipled; dissolute; vicious; licentious. Contrary to good order or public welfare; inimical to the rights or common interests of others: a legal and commercial sense.
  6. Nah...you're redrafting what an "unattended covid infection" implies in order to bring it down and make it comparable. Unattended covid has a much higher risk for serious injury or worse then being inconvenienced for 4 days... You alleviating risk, your alleviating chances ( significantly) with 2 to 4 days of vaccine and who the fudge ever said it only last for only 6 months anyway - I'm getting conflicting reports there everywhere. that sounds like bust stop mill work to me... I have heard no formal science report to substantiates that much limit on efficacy in the absolute sense ... But, for the sake of discussion - the average run in with c-19 flu is in far worse that 4 days out of the total year of softer inconvenience.
  7. Oh, I'm not heartless and without empathy ... I can see that may have been a hasty post on my part. But I know Weatherwiz from years on line and I think he understood the intent and conversation - could be wrong.. My bad Wiz' if that was offensive. Like I said, "... I'm not saying your pops was a 'sinner' per se .." That said, it is unfortunately the harsh reality: carrying on with an unhealthy life style is, in fact, immoral ... and the post was not about his father - it was about that fact, and to expose the irony that this infectious agent appears based in the space for how sever it affects -
  8. ? well sign me up - I'll bite on that
  9. Yeah... if there were ever a scenario that screams 'don't be a QPF queen' ... that's g-damn mo'f'n one of them right there. It's like the euphemism I like, 'correction vector' - I don't believe the 'uncertainty aspects' favor a lesser result. Parametrics as modeled ( 00z suite) are in fact suggesting the opposite to put it nicely.
  10. Well - no ... "death" is just hyperbole... There are other aspects related to this - Part of the problem is that everyone only thinks of themself - this is about the vitality of humanity ...this latter aspect is just not even in the circuitry of discussion by flavor and tenor and attitude. There's a bigger aspect to this than individual weighting - But I agree, there is probably a vast over-sell - This is/was never the Bubonic Plague ... or god forbid, Ebola should ever get as transmissible as this thing - ho man...magine that?
  11. There are some walking Darwin Awards in here that simply haven't found their ceremony yet - Thinking that inconvenience every six months is even in the same f'ing ballpark as full on risk to health and safety, not just for "you" but for all civility... as being justification for not taking a vaccine ... sorry - but that failure to see logic means their minds have slipped or failed in general, to become intellectually responsible and it is a matter of time-
  12. What you just said is a "false equivalence" ... Feeling lousy by vaccine side effects not harmful enough to get you to an ER ... is not the same thing as being reduced to an inch of your life by this infection, or... dying - If vaccines are good for six months, and you have to take a day or two to rinse through it, that is a better option than death.
  13. LOL ... well, we're transforming this into a 'snow or not' thing- that's fine too.. I'm more into the QPF in general. Could be quite prolific as you ...Scott et al But I guess as far as snow goes: I'm thinking two things concurrently on that and not sure which way to go. The first being, my experience in spring marginality is that the models will tend to error crucial .5C too warm because they don't really resolve the sub-synoptic dynamic dimensions that take place inside the cyclonic machinery... not from the mid range. In fact, sometimes it event takes now-casting to flip cat-paw deals into parachutes. This is sort of October 2009 slush NFL game at Gillette as an example. There are also feed-backs because of terrain, featuresthat are not resolved nearly that well even in the super star Euro cluster... The spine of Worcester Hills can exacerbate lift and that dynamically cools the column below the seed level and that helps draw the aggregates to the tree canopies up there... and then that starts modulating via conduction and weird micro phenomenon - ... it's not doing all this stuff over a flat curved planetary surface. ... I mean, summing all that together is usually going to offset the curtain heights of a CCB more so than present day modeling technology, which by virtue of limitation to do so ...smooths those thing into blindness - cooler tendencies happen. That said, the other aspect that I can't ignore is that our "flop direction" appears to have been ruined by CC frankly. We used to depend upon the above spectrum of complexity to ensure a blue-green ptype chart in April ended up cake at 32 -34 F ... but it seems in the last 10 years ... more and more those are just ending up blats on windshields. Nature does not like exact numbers - it happens...but storms typically pass through cat-paw 33 on route to some other state rather than stay at that razor's edge - that's why for the euphemism 'flop direction' It "could" actually be just better modeling physics altogether ...
  14. "Whats the point of a vaccine if it only lasts 6 months? " really wow It's so one does not get C-19 ... for six months - Sounds a tad self-centered/entitled... spoiled, like ... "I don't want it if I can't have it all" ? What does one say to that - If society et al, you know ... those pesky other people outside one's inward pointing compass? If all that is given a 6 month reprieve, that is time given back to research, to medical practicum, to just giving the immense momentum requirement needed to motivate 7 billion people.
  15. That may have something to do with it, too ? There's growing evidence lifestyle plays a role in morbidity risk - this is true in biology period, but the quality of longer-termed life-style, nutrition to exercise, hydration to sleep patterns, parlay with this thing. Seemingly quite specifically, too. I mean if anyone has a counter veracious reported source that specifically argues against both science and anecdotal immensely corroborating data mass, by all means... It is undeniable otherwise, there appears to be a core health 'gestalt' relationship to this where it precedes the worst cases. C-19 seems to go after the sinners, so to speak. It's almost like the moral virus - I'll stop short of invoking religion. The original scriptures and texts ...clearly were not written with vaccine wonders of advancing biological science in mind so "plague" isn't really a lightning bolt from the Zeus so much anymore... but that's theological popsicle headache. I'm not saying your pops was a 'sinner' per se, but I am not sure where package store, and the Mc in Donald's fit very well into the virtuous living paragon. C-19 wants to almost poetically come and get them, or in the least is statistically favored in the general population density as primary leading risk factor, once other genetic predispositions can be removed. It's the Big Mac revenge. There's other shit too - there always is. Genetic factors play a role. One could be Cystic Fibrotic, ...have that ORMDL3 genetic mutation that causes Athsma.. They could have genetic hypertension ... type 1 Diabetes ... the list is probably thousands and science can only identify a hundred. God hates red-heads, too... can't forget .. lol. Anyway, we hear of the occasional organic eating, 10K running quire-boy that's never celebrated with so much as a cigar or more than an ounce of champagne ..otherwise, in bed by 10 and no life ... Scores a Darwin award. Wtf did they do wrong? But those are the normal rarefied exceptions to every rule.
  16. If you read the paragraph that follows ... it is not such a brave outlook - Whether it happens ... it's relative to guidance/implictions therein - guidance could be en masse be wrong. sure
  17. Presently ...the most dependable operational guidance types/ .. blends therein agree that the structural evolution will move perfectly under our latitude ( 1997 style). That absolutely pegs climatology ( to very high percentile) for lashing SNE. That would have to change in order for the bold to succeed. Which ... it can, but all these guidance/ .. blend therein would have to up and be flat wrong ( as of 00z) on a D4.5. Getting strained to believe that would be the case .. There has also been cross-guidance and multi-ensemble member continuity more like the 00z/ .. blend evolution for a deep number of cycles ... extending back day's worth actually ... just sayn'
  18. Regardless of any other impacts ... whatever happens between 96 and 132 hours is likely to over-perform QPF-wise. More advance concepts: East wind anomalies extend very deep in the atmosphere, and though this system does not fan/evacuated due to accelerating entrance jets ...it has a vertically stacked easterly jet that extends from 850 mb to and over the 300 mb of tropospheric depth - that enitre slab of saturable atmosphere rips westward for 30 straight hours, into and **while** the core heights drop an additional 6 to 10 dm... due to dynamic feed-backs. That means there is a steady ratio of instability and that much mass transport into that bucket space will end up in the buckets on the ground to put it nicely. Terrain enhancing as a factor maximizes ... Local studies perform very proficiently in that synoptic evolution. Eastern Berks rise, the Worcester Hills/Monadnocks into the lower Whtie's due very well.
  19. Yup... seems this BD event had a kind of double boundary aspect to it - the main boundary cut under probably through your neck of the woods around noon... at that time, we were just getting a 2ndary oomph of wind gust from the NE up here and it was a cold smack. Went from flirting with 60 in partly sunny, to 48 and slate shits in an hour. What you describe catching up to you is almost like that 2nd boundary that came through here, making it's way southwest through the area... But yeah... if one is a spring/warm enthusiasts, ... you April, until further notice
  20. Or ...some rural line-toer walking down the break down lane of a country road ... no cars going passed probably in 5 minute intervals, and nothing else around but the brackish stream running along the road ... In the distance beyond the wetland adorned by last years cattails and dead sage, woods, while two turkey vultures do mobius loops in the sky above. And as I'm going past this lone solitary soul, 20 miles from anything qualifiable as a town ... he's wearing a mask. Other than the common clay of backdrop American morons ... I do get a distinct impression that some of the espy a person, pull up the mask thing might also have something to do with the anathema toward people who don't at least act concerned enough to pull it up - people don't want to be shaded or shamed, and end up on the news as 'that asshole' not wearing a mask around others.
  21. It's really like they can't - They've allowed the entire infrastructure of society to become bottle-neck dependent up on it, to the point where pulling back and 'disconnecting' would cause [ probably ] a modeled Nat Security risk. Disproportionate set back ... trust me ( I mean the general reader - ) this shit is advanced modeled by Pentagon ...etc, et al. Society is too inextricably co-dependent upon technologies that - oops - were allowed to be privately constrained ... They are not just wealthy - they can flip switches... and a reset now would be catastrophic - call it implicit extortion. It's probably chapter 2 or 3 in that dystopian novel, "Fermi's Paradox"
  22. Mm hm... An excerpt from that which was too long for anyone to have actually read - heh...I gotta stop writing on this site. But, " We probably really just went through the greatest transfer of wealth from one sector of western economics to another, in history. And those that received it ... they really should give it all back- or they are greedy with no redeeming value at all. 0. And though there isn't a hard conspiracy ... it's like the Bobby Axelrod affect - you really wanna keep that in entertainment and not have those types really pulling the levers of society. "
  23. Yeah... I was hammering the telecon layout for awhile myself. It was a monster winter signal ... for February For mid April? It may be mainly an inclement one, wet and cold and miserable .. usual suspects. I spent some time looking over all the spring snow producing events that were important - that I could think off. 1977, 1982, 1984, 1997 ... 2005 .. .etc. They all were "lucky" in a sense in that they got a bit of a cold goosing/inject at a critical time in the developmental phase of cyclogenesis. The other aspect is that there seems to be general modeling technology problem across the bevy of them all, actually... I thought it was something to do with the hemispheric pattern but I'm starting to see the same shit here in a much more nebular flow look/ pattern orientations we didn't have over the winter so I'm not sure it isn't just the models doing this. Doesn't matter which, ...but they are consummately over assessing the amplitude of cyclones in the mid range, and then we watch them ( almost all of them!) peeter out to some lesser form, ...sometimes disappearing altogether. The combination of that and normal seasonal damping ... lends to your thinking of chilly showers -
  24. It seems from these anecdotal accounts bandied about in this social media that a pattern emerges. It is as though the vaccine spectrum of induced symptoms is perhaps proportional, just shift the whole scale toward much less severe. Take a population and some few will need critical care to resolve ...or even die, ranging to just a short few days of inconvenience for the majority ..etc. Perhaps those that 'would have' needed that urgent care...those are the ones getting more harsh vaccine reactions ...
