Misc General Banter Thread

Sorry to hear that. I've heard of some sort of disease hitting bee keepers locally here.

It's definitely a two-edged sword. The cold over this way is doing its part to keep some of the invasive species in check. We had a 0 degree night in January 2018 and several nights below 10 these past two winters which really helps with some of the imported and invasive Asian plants.
It was pretty rough to continually find my hives dead last winter but the hives are in much better health this year.
I’m a cold and snow lover so I don’t mind the cold usually. Last January was impressive and combined with the back ground issues just caused problems. It’s always a double edged sword with animals especially honeybees. To much cold and they can starve to little cold so they become active then they may stave. Always best to have it a little bit cold and a little warm
 
For those of you who are noobs like me, ChatGPT and Gemini are pretty excellent and breaking down and explaining those comments in the threads full of weather jargon and stuff that I don’t understand. I have a running conversation there where I just plug in comments about Aleutian Ridges and bridging and NAO and MJO and all this other stuff and it does a really great job of teaching what it all is and what the poster is saying, with maps and visualizations and stuff too… AI is pretty awful sometimes but for stuff like this it’s a wonderful tool
ColdRainGPT got you: it's about to be hot bro!
 
I really think we need a section just for NC and another one for everyone else. This place truly feels like a NC forum sometimes. Especially this time of year.
I've said this a couple times, And I think it would solve a lot of issues. But I can tell you it will never happen. It feels that way cause 95% of those in this SE group is NC
 
Atleast he's not trying to Twist every which way they can to magically make it cold and snow around here. Some of us saw a torch coming quiet a few days ago. And yes Thank God it's gonna be warm and Not snow covered where people can't get to Family gatherings
This is not aging well. Torch is slowly fading.
 
What a horrible Christmas forecast! 😢😢😢😢IMG_3993.png

I just don’t get it. Do people in NC follow the weather more than people on other states ? There seems to be a disproportionate amount of weather weenies in NC.
