do you think it's gonna be weird on teams between the American and Canadian players?

Ok so I keep hearing an airplane overhead but check Flightradar24 and there is nothing there. Thought was hearing things but Mr. J hears it as well.

let's hope we don't slide like sometimes happens after All Star breaks (and this was longer).

We were playing pretty shitty before the break so we can only go up from here

Moved to banter, lol.

This man abandoned us for snowier pastures.  Single handedly reduced the black population in this forum by 25%.  

I will not forgive.

Ummm there's still 4 of us left, based on my last count. WxWatcher reduced our population by 20%. Rude of him, but not 25% rude. Do we need to line up and do a head count? There's 3 days left in our month. We can't have anyone missing.

MSLP error (KM) vs. lead time for our Mid Atlantic-Northeast blizzard. Notice that at 144 to 168 hours in advance the GFS was indeed KING! But overall, this graph shows once again that the skill (utility) with the AI models is in the medium range (after FH84). However notice that with this event, the AIGFS got much worse than the AIFS and a lot of other guidance between forecast hours 90-125.

Wow, the euro actually got smoked at d4 lead times pretty hard in that one.

Disappointed in you

I dissent  I think the tempo fits just fine! In fact, a case could be made that this tempo makes the eventual POP! more effective because it's more of a walking tempo (the GIF about 97 bpm...so Andante) That is just slow enough to kinda lull ya before surprise--just like the famous movement from Haydn's "Surprise" symphony (which incidentally also goes well  with this, haha) That tempo is an Andante as well which makes the surprise even better. Do it too fast and the POP loses it's distinctiveness. 

So...walk don't run before the POP!

That's my musical case for why that tempo works and I dares is even better!
