Misc Cold Season Complaining

I honestly just use chrome on my phone

I totally understand if folks want to use an app like tapa it makes life easy but they aren't the best business partners.

Our forum software used to support a stand alone app but they no longer do. If we ever really go big on a donation drive we might use that to go with a software that has an app but the cost delta between current software and the software id like to have isn't small

1.) if only I had time, I could cover iOS. I am picky as hell and am a senior iOS dev. But ------, stupid time and a real job (which isn’t weather related, but I actually love tf out of it).

2.) there was an android dev with the same values in making something that doesn’t make me want to set my lithium ion based device on fire.

But if ya ever need someone in lower capacity…. Or help with anything iOS side (App Store review insanity)…. Feel free to hit me up.
 
This board is in hyperdrive right now.

My question is this. With a weather forum, what is the point of an app, vs a bookmark icon on the phone screen? Sure, people could "discover" the site through the app store, but the traffic would be minimal, versus app store listing cost, etc.. imo.
 
I expect the cold to modify (still cold) some as we get closer in the time frame. I can see this gulf low moving north as we get closer. I seen and heard this song all before. Dang, I can't remember the storm when they system was heading to Tampa and then closer to the event time frame, the system hugged the coast...I think January 2011 storm (I think that was an overrunning event)
Jan 11 is my all timer. Not my highest total but far and away the best powder I’ve ever seen around these parts. 7”+ of pixie dust capped off with a little ZR at the very end. Magic

What I liked about January 2011 so much is that it stayed on the ground for a week.

Honestly. For this sort of thing. You’re 100% right.

The only reason to do anything would be to have “nice things”. There is no fortune and glory anymore.
 
Is there a new Brick here? I knew I shouldn't have changed my username. I always regret it but my OCD compels me to try to use the "perfect" username for me.

You've reached your maximum number of name changes, Carolina Jones forever. It was a good run

It’s dumb to consider an app like this outside a labor of love. As terrible as Tapatalk is, it’s good enough. They know it. And they are coasting on their dreadful mediocrity. They do nothing beyond bug fixes and crossing fingers that the next major iOS release doesn’t break their buggy mess.

But… anywho. Just sayin’, if ya ever need an expert in this area, I’m happy to help with what expertise I have.
 
You gotta get those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.
I guess I'm back for another winter of model abuse.
Every day: the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat - only to find myself staring at the backyard spotlight looking for one wafting snowflake.
Yet I keep coming back.
00z GEFS has it snowing three times in a week.

And we got dryslotted that morning here in the upstate or would have been even more.

Yep. Mine melted a week later from rain that was long modeled to be snow on top of snow. I am still mad at that rain for washing all my snow away.
 
I keep telling myself the GFS sucks but it's gotten way too consistent with a snow hole over me which would be about perfect for the last 3 years here 😜
