Cold Rain

St. Patrick's Day is my Christmas. And Thanksgiving. Go ahead and throw Halloween in there too. I got caught in my shenanigans this past Sunday by my 9 year old:

Top o tha mornin to ya there, Mr. Bevo!

Well I wouldn't say she hates it so that's good. For her I think she would rather me be distracted by weather than partying or other women. I'm perfectly fine with my weather and guitars.

Nice. My wife tolerates it too. I'm proud that at least she knows the difference between a Miiler A and B and what a -NAO is. Still working on east-based vs. west-based. And for the record, she DEFINITELY approves of my weather hobby over hanging out with other women, lol.

On another note, when you have a few minutes, PM me any good info you might recommend for learning the guitar. I can play the piano pretty well, but I'm trying to learn the guitar. I bought a cheapo Yamaha from Guitar Center, but I'm not sure I am practicing the right techniques.

It's a demon dog. It tried to bite my girlfriend but loved me. Guess it knows something

Haha! Does she like weather as much as you?

This is my requisite "don't look like this in real life" photo. 

 

That dog has scary eyes.

Melvin Howard Tormé, nicknamed The Velvet Fog, was an American musician, known for his jazz singing. He was also a jazz composer and arranger, drummer, pianist, and actor in radio, film, and television, and the author of five books.

Among many others he wrote "The Christmas Song" (Chestnuts Roasting) at the age of 19.

I knew about the nickname, but I did not know that he wrote the Christmas Song.

This was myself over Christmas trying to follow along to a good banjo player...

 

You would probably have an easier time of it if you didn't play in such dense fog.

I started out on Georgia Weather Board.. saw Weather Channel's weather board back in the day, but decided not to join. Then I heard about WWBB and joined that board; Followed by Eastern.. now AmericanWX. I post very little, just because everyone is very much more advance than me. I certainly have learned some much logging in everyday from everyone over the years. I personally just enjoy reading everyone's thoughts about what could/will happen with our weather. Southeast Group is the BEST! And I thank you all for the experience, I receive from your posts.

Agreed!

I found WWBB via an internet search and then found Eastern from there. Of course, I found American as a result of that. I also looked at the Almanac and Accuweather boards, but they sort of sucked.

nice pic man!

Thank man. I was going take and post an updated one in the snow, if it would ever snow.

June 3rd, 1987...the night I graduated high school! Talk about platinum blonde and blue eye shadow! They say you look better with time...I agree...I think I look better now than I did then.

They must have switched to Camera 3 without signaling you!

Here are some semi-recent ones of me. I blanked out faces cause I didn't feel like asking permission to post em out on random sites. lol

I like how you blacked out that dudes tats, there! Haha!

As long as we're posting pictures with cars, here's me in August with my Lincoln. Pic was taken at the bank.... I had to sell it.

Like the Lincoln! When I was in college, my 1980 crap mustang broke and so I got my grandma's 1976 Chrysler Cordoba. That was a hooptie. What a tank. Lots of power, though.

Figured I show you all what I look like with my hair cut short:

And here's one of me beside my dad's car. 1976 Pontiac Trans Am Firebird with 400 HP. Almost everyone in town recognizes my dad because of this car.

Awesome car! My wife and I left our wedding in my best friend's 1979 Trans Am. Black with the gold eagle. Sweet ride!

Here's Cold Rain and Cold Sprinkle:

I would also add:

1) Please list your location in your profile so when you are discussing your area, we know where your area is.

2) Don't post obs in the discussion thread.

3) Don't post full length NWS discussions or other lengthy commentary in the discussion thread...just post the relevant parts (i.e. if we're talking about a storm in the 5+ day time frame, don't post the near term part of the discussion).
