My dad is from Niles, Ohio. I've asked him a few times about the snow there. He's said that even if it wasn't snowing, there often would be snow on the ground from December to March. He insists that none of this was lake effect snow (this town isn't close to the lakes, but still, this is Northeast Ohio). I've looked this up and know this isn't exactly true but the point of this is I wonder if it's still the same today, compared to the 1960s and early 70s.
 
I lurk a lot here. I don't post much/at all because I don't feel as though I literally have anything of value to contribute because many of you know way more about weather than I do. But I've got one question: Why is it when someone points out the nearly inevitable warming later this winter, they're accused of spreading the AGW "agenda"? Where did that come from?? I mean as far as I'm concerned I am more interested about the reality of the situation. Like I get it, there are some posters I've seen that are pretty much annoying trolls that only wish for warmth just to get everyone's panties in a bunch. But I want to see the blue and purples all over the maps as much as many on here and off here and it's just funny to me how an analysis on possible warmth in the near future is immediately seen as advancing the global warming "agenda". 'Tis a silly thing.
 
NFC is crazy right now especially NFS south. Carolina could still miss the playoffs, Atlanta can still win the Division or the Saints could win the division... somebody in the NFC is going to miss the playoffs with 10 wins
If Carolina and Atlanta both win next week their week 17 match up will be epic battle for Division title

the people with the agendas are the ones who are so triggered by even the slightest mention of global warming, a scientific concept accepted as truth by an overwhelming majority of climate scientists. AGW deniers are truly like a cult.

Its going to be a fun 2 weeks with such a messy playoff picture. The saints have to stumble at some point and I'm still not sold on the defense

i submit that IF the agw stuff was accepted among scientists, then it would be well accepted here....those really using scientific method know that the claim most scientists says agw is real is NOT science, that is politics citing a consensus and not science at all and that consensus is based on a clearly faulty study done by naomi oreskes from memory....the climate is a set of statistics derived from every changing input, that alone says climate change will always happen and is 100% natural result of the process.

It really is going to be fun to watch, much better imo then when teams clinch titles with several weeks to go. Meaningless games suck

I don’t believe humans are the main reason for GW. I’m not in a cult either. I think global warming is BS. I have no proof beside what I read. It’s ok to disagree. Everything has the right to believe what they want. Talking GW is like talking politics. No one wins.

Injuries have slowed the defensive progress but the Saints have a lot of young talent. Trust me!
 
Over 3 inches of rain today and a few days ago the gfs and euro said it would be 70 and sunny today o_O

Not been a good few days for the models here cooler and more moisture than expected

I want Carolina to get matched up with the rams if they can't get a home game. Then season Gurley might rush for 300. I really just don't want to see another patriots super bowl. I've firmly sat myself on the Jags bandwagon. But I think the steelers are really the only team that can beat them.

No doubt I believe them to be a bigger threat to Carolina in the playoffs than minnesota, Philly or la

Familiarity is the reason in my opinion. Sean Payton built this team to compete with Carolina. I can't tell you how may years we watched Jake Delhomme and Steve Smith take it to us. The Panthers have one of the best defenses in football. You just gotta hope Cam is off on his game to have a chance.

Good luck. Its been a total pattern flip here. We had a wet summer which is usually our dry season then our wet season fall had next to no rain and now here we are in a big drought. I hope it holds up til the cold gets here

I was joking the other week about how Hurricane Harvey killed the weather here lol and Harvey up here was just a couple showers

As a Saints fan, I would not want to see Carolina again this year.

You have the right, but certainly we don't have to put equal stock in your opinions... especially when you literally just said, 'I have no proof..." "I have no proof but... your scientific claim considered valid by most climate scientists is --------." That's essentially what you're saying. Why does anyone have to give opinions like that equal footing on a science board? Checkmate? Or does this have to continue? lol

No kidding missing out on decent precip from Harvey and Irma really set us back here. I can't take another dry summer, I'll ban myself

Actually, LA is in what is called the west. Phoenix is in what is called the southwest. NC is in the region called the southeast. Indiana is in the region called the midwest. Any other geography questions?
