Not sure where else to put this, but very cool and could be a useful tool - FS - should I put this in Wiki, and if so, where?

Put it under Severe weather tools in the severe weather tab. It would be a good spot to start placing links to severe weather related elements. It's under the severe weather page.

I see some wishcasters are already greasing their wheels with hurricane season. It should truly be an epic winter this year with the wishcasting already on display.

I swear home prices have gone through the roof. Looking to buy something not in a cookie cutter neighborhood with more than 1/50th of an acre and the best I can find is 30 miles away. Ugh

I mean $350,000 for a home, what the hell is wrong with people. How do you afford that!? Blows my mind

Try Roxboro!! You'd get a lot more snow, and it's got everything you need: bowling alley, Walmart , movie theatre, Golden Corral , and an Arby's ! :)
And a mansion for about 150k

And it seems that's the only type of new homes that are being built around here, 300K and up. I don't know who's buying all these homes and how there are that many people that can afford it. I bought my home for 150K in 2006 and could easily sell it for 200K now in less than a month because it's so hard to find homes that cheap around here anymore.

The draw back too, for home owners, is higher property taxes
 
I remember seeing an article on the Charlotte subreddit about townhomes being built in this neighborhood that were around like 500K.
 
Where I work 350-450k is normal for a decent sized home on a half acre lake lot. Most people pay as much for the lot as I did for my house and 19 acres.
 
Kentucky pissed one away tonight. Had a 13 point lead in the 4th quarter, then started that "play not to lose" crap
 
Omitted October - Can we just get to November already? Probably won't feel much like fall all month, except a swing to the first freeze or chill. I expect to hit 80 somewhere in there at least once more.

Opposite October - Nothing like 80s in fall right? LOL
 
I can't believe its 3 months til Christmas

Last 2 Christmases it was hot and humid here... can we go for three? :rolleyes:

2015 even featured a killer tornado the day after, the sad highlight of that winter:eek:

I agree, and I think it's just a matter of time before we have to deal with upper 70s dew points in September & October, I'm afraid. Consider me frustrated!

Well we have been slightly AN since 2010 for Sept/Oct

Using the same matrix and going into winter, over the 6 years it hasn't averaged any better ... :confused:

And that map includes winter 2010-11 which was pretty cold and it doesnt include last winter. So if that map started with winter 2011-12 and went through 2016-17 it would probably be even warmer

That's just brutal to look at. This has no doubt been the warmest decade of winters in my lifetime. Hopefully we can close out the decade with some cooler winters. Hopefully some snow too. Going on 4 years with little to no snow in ATL.
