Misc 2019 Banter & Friendly Conservation

After the cold blast last year I remember an article written by some climate alarmist saying these things would only happen every couple hundred years now. It’s starting to look more and more like that article isn’t going to age well
 
Why does it seem like pipes burst more easily in the cold down south ? It was -12 here last winter and I don't recall any pipes bursting.

Your freeze line is deeper and plus in order to pass an inspection certain things have to be done to code based on the region you live in. Water lines up there need to be buried 24”+ whereas 12-18” will suffice here. I see some places with water lines 6”. That’s why our pipes burst

LOL! If it was 5 degrees outside and her eyeballs were frozen shut and sleet was hitting her in the eye, she’d say low of 20 and rain for everyone outside the mountains

James Spann really blew it on his afternoon update. He did show the Euro showing bitter cold in 10 days, but said he didn't see any snow chances in the next 8 ,9, 10 days other than flurries, so he completely ignored what the Euro shows with snow. Really lazy.

No he just a snow hater. So he just waits until 24 hours before the event.

Good lord !
 
Talking about single digit and sub-zero temps gets me excited. I love seeing extreme winter weather! Especially where it’s not common. We skied last year at Snowshoe/Silvercreek, at night, at -2. It’s cold but bearable. You just have to keep skin covered up. I remember several times as a kid when temps got to single digits in N.AL but I don’t ever remember seeing temps below zero. That would be awesome!

The one time in recent years historic with regards to cold would hold some water. It's been decades since we've had subzero lows here and I've never seen highs in the teens that I can remember, only low 20s. This is January 1985 type cold. Funny enough it hasn't been that long since we've had single digit lows in Atlanta though, January 2015 was the last time that happened.

If I'm not mistaken Atlanta had a high temperature of 17 in early February of 1996. We also had a few snows that year.

The high was around 17 in Atlanta in February 1996.
 
Very curious to see what the Fv3 shows for that possible snow next weekend

some insane cold my goodness, euro passed on the blunt, but the most disappointing thing is that there is no snow, just static shocking cold and the type of cold that does not make you want to walk out into the morning sun, but hey it would be good snowmaking conditions
