Agreed. There will be a toll. You have to figure the PM’s roof was screwed down tighter than the average Joe’s.
Agreed here, too. BTW, I stumbled onto another paper on trochoidal oscillations.
http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu/resources/docs/Wavenumber_Nolan.pdf
Many references are included therein. This paper is beyond my ability to seriously absorb in the few minutes I would have “here or there” anytime soon, and it’s really more in metmom’s area of expertise, so I’m just posting it in case anyone is interested. :-)
It’d be nice if this storm just wobbled itself apart, but I don’t think it’s going to happen soon enough...
