I'm normally on here during our winter months, that said so long everyone, LOL. Really, I'm on here all fall/winter months some during slow business hours and more severe/floods/hurricanes season months. I'm never on here during a heat outbreak, that does not excites me.
The Rich get richer
North Carolina has a new education proposal where everything above an 84 is an A? smdh
JC says we are gaining about 2 minutes of daylight a day now #Winning

NHL legitimately looking at Carter Finley Stadium in Raleigh as a possible site for an outdoor NHL winter classic game within the next few years. Oh man this would be so awesome.
LOL how will they keep the rink groomed with 2m’s in the upper 60’s?

They've done a winter classic before in Las Vegas, NV (actually was their first one) in 1991 w/ game time temps at 80F and grasshoppers jumping all over the ice lol. Guess it could be worse

if that's the case then every winter w/ a trace of snow in my backyard is an A in my book! Smh
I am sure when hockey is played inside (hockey arena) they building temp is kept around 68 degrees. If it was much colder people wouldn’t come and watch the games. Plus when they created the ring it has several layers.
But what about the sun and 100% humidity?
I am sure the ice machine that they run over the floor packs it down nicely.

I never really partied but I mostly used my two years away at university to have fun. And although I'm quiet, I really did, snow or no snow because of the Berry College WMA, other wilderness areas, and I got to spend more time with my mom's side of the family.
And realized I wasn't ready to commit to doing something. My major regret of back then is committing to attending university when I wasn't ready to. I'm quite fine with what I ended up doing if I can eventually attain a full time job, but I wish I did what I did back in 2017 and early 2018 first, got a job and worked for a year, then eventually just gone to the hometown university or a place like Georgia Southern. As of now though, outside of the slim possibility of me trying to get into a program for basically one more year of classes, I'm just done with college lol.
I'm another in which if math didn't make me meltdown majorly, I'd have tried to get into meteorology from the start. I had to have my hands held in math all the way through high school. I was not a bad student, I was normally pretty good, but I absolutely would have failed high school due to math and math alone if my dad did not hold my hands. If it was not my dad, you simply did not get through my head with it.

And here I am with an 8,and 6 year old and this math that they teach them makes my head want to explode.
Math is what killed my meteorology dream, but in the end Im thankful. I enjoy weather much more as a hobby when I may have hated it if I had to do it as a job.
Besides getting good pay, state insurance, a four day work week and the ability to
retire when Im 47 is probably better.
So for me, ADEM certification + CDL > Meteorology degree.

Oh, it's been a while (since I've been out of high school for years now) but I've read about some silliness that they teach in methods to solve math from time ago. Some places changed it around from even ways that I learned it.
And my case goes even further from high school. Math and me just didn't mix. It just worsened in high school. It was so bad I couldn't do basic algebra. Heck, when I came back home from university and switched to technical school, I couldn't do some of the remedial math and I just broke down at one point because of that problem. To make that worse, it was a computer class to boot, too. There was a certain section I was simply not getting out of without a herculean effort by my brain. I was stuck and needed a break. Then I came back and did a program while feeling good about myself, and it's just a matter of trying to get full time work now.
I'd be all in on this
CDL helps with a lot of jobs these days, especially if you’re a good one. There is an absolute shorty of truck drivers these days. Companies are begging for drivers, however you have to start at the bottom to appreciate the top.
Math is about to kill me aswell ?

Swear Math was harder in HS than it has been in college lol. Back in HS they would not let us use calculators at ALL. Now in college I have taken Calculus 1&2, Finite, and Statistics. Getting to use a calculator/Excel makes life a lot easier.
I used to love math, it was always my favorite subject.........until I got into high school. I enjoyed learning Algebra and Trigonometry, but anything above that like Geometry or Calculus was hell. Especially Calculus my junior year, it was like someone took a frying pan to the back of my head, brain completely went blank. It's nothing to really be proud of, but that was the one class in high school I was glad to BARELY pass with a C average. Like many of you, I was headset on going into Meteorology, but high school quickly changed that, plus I sucked at Physics also so.....I thought maybe graphic design would be a much better fit for me instead lol.
It’s so funny that algebra 1 was dreadful for me. Algebra 2 a breeze, geometry a breeze, pre cal and cal was hard but I got it done. That’s as far as I got but granted that was 20 years ago. Teachers make a yuge difference.

Hmm, in my area of Georgia, I want to think that was not the case for us but I might not be remembering right (it might not have been allowed on some tests). Even having a calculator didn't matter for me though.
You might have been just older enough than me to not have this or didn't have the Math I/II/III/IV stuff, but I read old emails that had my dad complaining about how they had high school freshman starting off with basic aspects of Trig in Georgia with the courses that are just called "Math" courses instead of stuff like Algebra I which he felt was ridiculous. He also had me not even take Physics back in those days. They put me in it but he told me to get out and I managed to.

Speaking of math remember when teachers used to tell us we'd never have a calculator on us at all times 
speaking of math what’s the equation for a SE snowstorm, its supposedly so hard to solve this winter

Bro how do you know so much about weather at 17 lol? Did you used to be on American or what?! You just came out nowhere this winter dropping knowledge
️ 
Watched the weather channel once when I was 5, gained interest in weather, really started learning about the more in depth stuff these past few years, I used to be lost on some of this stuff just a few years ago but it made me realized i need to learn and study about this, and this place has helped me out a whole lot aswell
Shoot 5 years ago I didn’t even know weather models existed ? to this day I now realize I wish I still didn’t
Much more important than wx is our health and here's some great news about a well-known wrestler's health that has been in the news for 4 months: I have to admit tearing up a bit on this. He's a former GA Tech football player by the way and his real name is Joe Anoa'i. This happened in ATL..any coincidence?
"WWE superstar Roman Reigns announces his cancer is in remission, returns to action on Raw"
https://www.cbssports.com/wwe/news/...cer-is-in-remission-returns-to-action-on-raw/
Now check this out from 4 months ago, when he shocked the world announcing that he had had leukemia 11 years earlier and that it had just returned:. Prior to this announcement..heck even in the first 2 or so minutes of this video,,,,, he had been about the most hated of the babyfaces ("good guys") with many booing him. You'll see a very obvious change as those boos disappear and the support for him suddenly goes through the roof right after the announcement..really an incredible metamorphosis right before our eyes:
