“They’ve been naming winter storms for a while now, but have they started naming cold waves?”
I think they’ll start naming Summer storms.
“There was a puddle beside my sidewalk, yesterday.”
Did you name it as a navigable waterway?
Oh my...that’s a whole night’s worth of wild-eyed schadenfreude.
Thanks!
:)
Being a biker who lives for sunny days, I’ve been naming them for decades.
They’re all called “AWDAMMIT!!!”
Don't tell the EPA, just shovel and shut up, lol. Tamp the fill dirt down well, otherwise it'll be a sensitive mountain ecosystem.
Due to the unseasonable appearance of a *real* salamander, nearby, it would have been designated a wetland, instead.
:)
We ride EVERY DAY here in Az, heh heh
You jest but this actually happened to my dad, who owned the mountain above me.
The EPA kept nagging him about the “stream” than runs parallel to my lane.
This started because he was throwing cuttings from timber in the ditch where a stream *once* was, hundreds of years ago.
It shows up on a 1789 map, therefore, the EPA said it was still a stream.
However, the ground beneath this area is positively riddled with underground springs, which change, shift and disappear, all the time.
The “stream” in question was only a dim memory of another time.
It does have runoff water in heavy rains but so do the streets in town and nobody is freaking out about that,
After years of harassment, dad got fed up.
He waited for the EPA wonk to show up, while sitting on the front porch of his cabin with a rifle on his lap.
He never said what really happened, beyond that detail, but that was the last we ever saw of the EPA, who seemed to leave in one hell of a hurry.
And dad went back to throwing branches in the ditch.
Aaaah, shaddup!
:D
I don’t want it here. Let’s keep it where it normally is. Fine with me.
Al Gore’s garage.
BTW, this pathetic term “Polar Vortex” is nothing but a euphemism for the JET STREAM. I am on good personal terms with a bonafide meteorologist...when “polar vortex” started sneaking into the media, I asked him directly about this. He confirmed my suspicions. This is basically the difference between “climate change” and “global warming”.
So. Winter returns to many of you lower 48ers?
Welcome the the party.
It’s 9 outside. Still not cold yet. The next football game will still have packed stands for the Packers.
I’ve lived in Alaska for 25 years, every time i fly out to someplace warm like a layover in Honolulu i’m stuck in the motel with the AC on high! I die when i get in temps over 80f.
Or high humidity, but yet there isn’t a day i wish to buy a house on one of the islands, up a bit from the beach, leeward so to see a setting sun, minimal VOG, an estate i can name it.
But no dobermans or a live in that always has to drive my expensive vehicles.
It will be 27 F. in Southern Maryland tomorrow. That is cold enough for me.
the last three months?
Not sure. I think the warming melts the ice and the air gets super cold? And then when its super hot again its because the warming overwhelmed the cold air again? And the warming somehow causes any and all other detrimental weather phenomena? Not having a superior liberal mind Im really too ignorant to fully understand the complexities. We just need to believe. Warmists assure me the debate is over, 105% of the scientists all agree.
Pfffft. You're no fun at all.
:-P
