LordBaltimore Posted Thursday at 02:15 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:15 PM If we're talking geo-engineering for more snow then I think we should mandate people replacing furnaces with heat-pumps. Make it hot inside by extracting outdoor heat. Imagine every house in DC and Baltimore running one of those in winter. Big office buildings too. We'd get an urban cool island, it'd be snowing in downtown Baltimore rain in Towson 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmclean Posted Thursday at 05:58 PM Share Posted Thursday at 05:58 PM I propose consideration to replace all normal water in the biosphere with heavy water (D2O). Since it freezes at ~38.9 °F we could gain a lot of marginal events. We'd have to maintain a supply of regular water for drinking since in large quantities heavy water is toxic. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted Thursday at 07:50 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:50 PM Starting to think winter might be done. Maybe we get one more non-accumulating event in March, but next week is gonna be a serious thaw. Kinda sucks because I’ll be busting over on my snowfall forecast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb@MAWS Posted Thursday at 08:48 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:48 PM Flew outta town to the Caribbean 4 hrs before snowstorm began. Returned 10 days later. Today, another 8 days later, I was finally able to get thru the snowcrete and shovel my front walk. Tough work ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted yesterday at 01:20 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:20 AM MAMMOTH ALERT Early next week Mammoth Mtn Resort could get demolished with as much as five new FEET of snow!

Jebman Posted yesterday at 11:26 AM Share Posted yesterday at 11:26 AM Models are printing out more and more Pacific moisture for the Sierran Cordillera Sun night on into mid/late next week. It's now up to 4-5 inches of pure water. When that moisture conveyor hits the Cordillera and is forced 11,000 Plus feet straight up - LOOK OUT. Its February. Thermals gonnabe NO PROBLEMO. Massive travel weekend ahead. Millions of people trying to get back home later on say Tuesday next week will be frantic and forced to shelter in place. We may well be revisiting a little bit of the Infamous 2022-2023 Season there in that part of the world. I hope and PRAY with all of my desperate little MORBID snow weenie heart, ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM NOT GONNABE THERE, RISKING MY LOWER BACK FROM A FALL, that the models are DEAD WRONG and that Mammoth gets twice as much snow as is currently being depicted. Maybe even triple the currently depicted amount! George BM only thinks he is into extreme winter weather. I am gonna ENJOY this catastrophe! I will be eagerly happily watching from 84/63 Buda, drinking fresh cold well water like a hot horse in the Valley of Kings in Egypt in August, perfectly safe from falling on the superabundant ice in the Cordillera and also perfectly safe from easily freezing to death like the Donner Party in what could well turn out to be one of the worst snow episodes in recent history in the Sierras! I DEMAND MY SNOW FIX! And, I WILL get it - in SPADES! This has been a classic Jebman Presentation, likely for the Ages. Please, Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a close race with the French team who eeked out the gold. Well done USA! ETA: That Stolz guy from Wisconsin is a stud on the speed skating track. He crushed the 1000m with an Olympic record! they eeked out the gold because the French judge scored them 8 points higher than Chock and Bates, even with their obvious error. under the old ordinal rules C&B would have won. there are also some really awful issues attached to the personal lives of that French pair, much worse than the cleaned-up for TV commentary tells.

CAPE Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago Friday HH drinkies Stopped in to one of my go to liquor stores 2 miles from where I work with the intent of picking up a big ass stout, and then I saw a bunch of 120 min IPA Limited release singles on the shelf- 9 bucks a piece! Fuck yeah I picked up a few. IMO the best 120 version ever, primarily due to the dry hopping which was never done before with this beer. That zing at the end after the malty/sweet dark fruit middle is incredible. eta- One thing about the dry hopping- it doesnt age well. So while complex beers like this one overall get better/smoother with age, the dry hop component will pretty much disappear. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what I mentioned, isn't even one billionth of what is ACTUALLY gonna transpire. By the time this is over with, the entire Sierran landscape will in effect, be The New Greenland. Three times what the models are saying just with this first storm starting Monday morning over the Sierra, may turn out to be extremely conservative. They will have to shut Mammoth Resort down for 7 days just to do avalanche mitigation work, and those conditions will be possibly the very WORST ever since they started building western ski resorts! The western ski resorts' snowstorms got delayed but not denied. Because of the incredible hyper intensity of these incoming storms, the severe season will begin rather early. The warm side of these storms will mean serious, serious bisnass!

Jebman Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago The storm that will devastate the Sierra with high winds and brobdingnagian amounts of snow Sunday night thru Thursday next week, ORIGINATES FROM ALASKA. It will be a frigid storm laden to the gills with enormous amounts of Pacific moisture. It will smash into all the California mountains and be forced violently upward condensing into ridiculous quantities of torrential snow that will simply pile up, feet and feet maybe meters. High winds will pile up drifts and cornices at ridges that will result in severe avalanche dangers. In short, this is not the weekend to go skiing along the Sierras. Travel will be impossible. This storm is so cold that it will snow on the valley floors. Every mountain in California including the coastal ranges will be utterly demolished with snow. New records will be set. Models are depicting up to 7 inches of pure water. Snow to water ratios will increase to 14 to 1. This is going to be BAD. THIS STORM WILL TAKE NO PRISONERS. This storm is only the first in a classic Pacific Set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those accumulation look nice and slow. On the Tug they'd get all that snow in about 5 hours and then the sun would be out. Next day.. it's does it again lol.

BlizzardNole Posted 56 minutes ago Share Posted 56 minutes ago My nephew lives in Roseville, to the NE of Sacramento. One time he and his wife drove a couple hours to Tahoe to see 4-5 feet of snow on the ground, then drove home to 50s and sun.
