ACE is dumb. Meaningless stat. This year has been a bust so far unless Sept and Oct can make 2-3 H a week.

I seriously don't see us having a historic season at this point. We are nearing peak and only at E, with our actual historically active seasons being way beyond that by this point. For reference, 2020 was at L already by today.

In terms of # of NS despite the 3rd highest ACE since 1951, 2024 looks to get nowhere near historic. But in terms of H/MH/ACE, it isn’t as clear cut. 2020’s ACE as of today was only half of where 2024 is. 9 of its 12 NS through today were only 55 knots at max or weaker. 2024 has had 1 MH/3 H. 2020’s first MH (Laura) wasn’t til ~Aug 26 and 3rd H wasn’t til Aug 25. 2020 will likely be much more active the rest of August vs 2024, however.

I’m a meteorology student now at NCSU, and I’m shocked at how almost nobody has snow as their first choice for favorite type of weather

Congrats and yeah! Warm weenies for the win. Also whatever you do, remember you have to howl at every new person you meet, walk across the Talley seal, and eat at fountain. Trust me bro. That’s how @SD and @Rain Cold succeeded

It was blocked in Ireland too. I had to use my Durham Traffic network vpn.

Season cancel. On to winter.

And winter’s already canceled. On to spring/summer of 2025. Hoping for El Niño next year!

In all seriousness I normally like winter more than any other season, even if mild like most have been recently.

Did they launch you off runway 12? 09 I guess could have worked too, but it looks like you are in a slight left banking turn with a good 10 - 15 degree positive pitch.

I figured you might be a pilot just by seeing Fayettville.

You might be right actually. We had to wait on the taxi way forever due to the weather. Of course American there takes precedence.

Very nice. That had to be a very fun masters to get. Charlotte is definitely the place to be in the banking world. I’ve known a few people to work for Truist over the years, most have stayed for lengthy periods. I say that knowing BOA and Wells Fargo have a bigger presence in Charlotte whereas Truist is still in W-S.

Cook baby cook, let’s cook till October then go warm dry and super sunny . Like today ! All winter long! Plus the UHI has only increased since last winter with all the growth so we got even warmer now. Especially in places like Clayton and chalybeate springs, they may have gained another .5 degrees of UHI over the last year
 
Actually, chalybeate springs might have gained an entire degree of UHI. In 2018 there was nothing but fields and a couple neighborhoods there but during 2020 there was a flurry of rapid approvals of neighborhoods that are now being constructed. @SD gained 10,000 people and 1 degree of UHI. Maybe I should be pro development, it brings UHI to help warm the globe

Southern wake county also gained a lot of UHI with the new construction of the tolled UHI belt. Helping push the snow / rain like further north and west one degree of UHI at a time 🌭

Warm deez
 
@Rain Cold imma tap your credit card and then drive the tolled 540 during snow chances to keep friction on the road therefore heat therefore more UHI and then you will pay for it all whilst I push the rain snow line further nw! Do not move to Morganton this winter, stay for one more year of heartbreak

I was happy to get a 5.5 to 6in snow mid Jan in 15 degree temps, which took a week to melt

Mr Golf, why does your name get longer and longer every time you change it?

Take a lesson from Dewpoint Dan. He's on his 47th rebrand now and he keeps it within a reasonable number of characters! 😅

It was *a lot* of reading and writing, believe me. To be honest, I'm not even that big of a fan of reading. What I do love, however, is having all the information in the world at my fingertips. I used to read encyclopedias for fun as a kid so the research part is just fun to me.

I don't have a MLIS but I've work in libraries for 20 years. Public first and now academic. Public was way more unpredictable but academic pays better and not so many crazies running around..lol.

Are you at UNA? That’s the closest institution to my wife’s folks and I’ve always pondered.

That was also my career track. Nine public, coming up on eight years academic.

I'm sure you do with that horrible heat there. When we visited Savannah last weekend I didn't expect 104 degree heat index on Sunday. Made it difficult to be outside!

Did you enjoy your trip otherwise? Did you by chance hit the Crystal Beer Parlor? If so, how was it? Did you stay at one of the hotels I mentioned?

We didn't get a chance to go to Crystal Beer Parlor but we did eat at some good restaurants on the river. Instead of getting a hotel we got a place on vrbo which was close to Forsyth Park and was a good place to stay.
