  1. It’s hard for me to take anything seriously until it’s an imminent threat, but I know I’m probably in the minority on that. No shot taken at anyone here.
  2. At some point you need some kind of agreement between the ops and ensembles. I’m not saying they need to show and lock in D7, 8, 9, 10 events, but the ensembles have led us into the abyss with false hope.
  3. Now that’s the kind of storm I dream of. SN+ 3/3 WC -20
  4. Very true. We shoveled a lot of potential in December, and had things go to crap in the medium range in January—in addition to the well modeled torch lol. I do agree that we’ll turn the corner, maybe even in a big way. But it’s time for production. Period.
  5. Can’t imagine life without her…incessant complaining about snow
  6. Nothing nearly as dramatic, but I first started chasing during a period of uncertainty in my life in DC. Went to Portland for a blizzard, and just fell in love with the peace and awe that came with going to experience high end wx events. It has evolved a lot for me since then, but chasing is part of my DNA now. So much so that my wife (who hates wx) has come along a couple times to support. There’s just nothing like it, as dangerous as it can be sometimes.
  7. That’s incredible. Absolutely wild and extraordinarily dangerous.
  8. I do kind of miss the ole sickle and padded rooms. Those were good times.
  9. Remember when we thought there was a better chance of this sliding off the Mid-Atlantic than cutting?
  10. Nice wx is nice, but boring. Nothing wrong with 75/45 in April, 85/55 in July, or 70 in October. Stretches of that are fine, but if I wanted months upon months of it I’d move to San Diego. I’m fine seeing them from a safe distance in the Midwest, but seriously, there’s nothing like witnessing/experiencing the power of nature—human impacts aside.
  11. Big drought isn’t possible here, despite what some say
  12. Big is the only way to live. Unless it’s a damaging tornado through my backyard or house getting flooded out/washed away I want it all. Big snow, big wind, big rain, big heat, big cold, big hail, big ice. Bring it.
  13. I’d love to experience something like that someday. My current record is -20.
  14. Siberia. Seriously. Biggest cold in 20 years there.
  15. Lived in DC, went to Ocean City to chase. Was one of the most grueling walks of my life trying to get to @ers-wxman1. Ton of fun.
  16. If only. Instead, the lime green parakeets in @Hoth’s backyard are doing backstrokes in mud puddles and sunbathing in the grass.
  17. I am 100% out. I'm just marveling at how prescient Will is.
