Finally, what small slither of inner snow weenie he had left died. He will come back stronger than ever.

Not even trying to be cute here. Dude is going to push the no snow/heat train forever & harder after this Winter failure.

Holy smoke!! I thought it was just a pic at first and was like meh then clicked it and realized it's a video..... dang! Y'all need to see this, that's crazy, girl might want to stay on her knees for a few more minutes and give thanks.
 
Based on the main February thread, maybe we should have this Banter thread and a Reminiscing thread.
 
The futures look like hell. I bet the DOW opens and quickly goes down 4-600

So I just received this from the NWS on my phone....

...NO TSUNAMI THREAT ALONG THE EAST COAST...GULF OF MEXICO...OR
CARIBBEAN...

Some users may have received notifications that a tsunami warning is
in effect for their area. There are no tsunami warnings in effect at
the current time. Again, there are no tsunami warnings in effect.

Apparently a false Tsunami warning went out to some along the east coast? These continued glitches and false alarms will spell disaster one day in the future

Yeah not the end of the world (as I know you know), heck what goes up must come down eventually.... I don't mind, the lower it goes the more stocks my 401K purchases just means all the more cash value when it goes up again
 
Wow! Who needs Charles Schwab?
 
Its annoying how it seems like NYC is always warmer than it is here despite them being further north. I am ready for some 40s !

One thing I have noticed is that winters in Indiana seem to be way more cloudy than in Georgia.

I know it’s much easier said then done but in those conditions with the time she had left to react she definitely should have stayed in the car. Maybe would have got some whiplash but she must have had god looking out for her because there’s 1,000 different ways that could have gone wrong.
 
Pretty significant winter storm in Northern KY on the way. Winter Storm Warnings have been issued. Significant ice possible.

New York City is located next to the Atlantic which keeps them from Chicago type temps. Many places in the mid west that are further south then New York probably have much colder low temp averages.

Edit: At least in the winter anyways. I’m sure it has the opposite effect in the summer.

Another factor: You're at 981 feet above sea level vs NYC's Central Park, which is only ~100 feet up. That, alone, can make a 3-5 degree difference.
 
Chicago(and the midwest in general) has a straight shot to arctic air NYC usually its moderated by the time it gets there plus the other factors already mentioned big differences

Did anyone else see SpaceX's rocket launch? Just saw the booster rockets separate and then safely land back at the landing pad.... got to say that was freaking awesome!
