Got to get away from these el nino base states. They screw you way more days than they help. Weak as pond water la nina is way to go. Its drier but you get shots of cold. Use to could count on weak el ninos, but even when the east verse west setup aurgument tips in your favor, they just dont produce anymore. We get the moisture but also pacific origin air.
 
Wonder what will happen first? We get Iowa Democratic Caucus results or we get a pattern change?

exactly... spot on bro
 
As awful as the last 14 months have been for the 85 corridor, I feel for I20 guys from DFW to CAE. Absolutely ridiculous for an area to go this long with nothing.

This oughta verify. I live on the SE side of Lake Lanier in Georgia right under the snow line. ?‍♂️

The Georgia portion of that map looks almost completely dependent on elevation, and the cutoff according to the majority of that is around 1500'. The section in northwest Georgia probably will not verify that isn't part of lookout mountain.
 
Keep winning

Agree ... but IMHO (very humble) that is what late March, April and the 1st half of May are for (at least the fishing part) ... however, if one can't find time with family regardless of the time of year or the weather, then there's a whole 'nother discussion to be had ...

Speaking of fishing, here’s a lil cold water bass I caught a week ago, ready for it to warm up, that’s when the big ol flathead catfish arrive around here

I'm just waiting (and with the warmth it won't be long yet) for the big ol' mama large mouth bass, full of roe, to start bedding ... give me a still cloudy day and a plastic worm and my Garcia (reel, not guitarist) and I will have just a great time ... :cool:
 
The sand gnats here were awful yesterday evening. Normally they don't start getting bad til spring! I hope cold comes back, whether it be late Feb or March...hopefully both!

Larry,
Are they "no-see-um's"? If so, I did not know they ranged that far up the coast; actually, if so, I thought they were pretty much confined to the Big Bend (in any event they are real bad come June - October in the sweet sand areas). If so, I learn something usefully new today!

The "no-see-ums" are notorious here. That's why our former baseball team was called the "Sand Gnats." They are normally worst here on spring and fall evenings, but not winter evenings lol.
My understanding is that these gnats go as far inland as the Fall Line but I can't verify that.
When (seasons and times) are they the worst in Hogtown?

Idk, but I love it, 70 degree days are really nice days where you could spend time outside with family or do activities like fishing
Edit * also bass spawning season not to far away in NC/SC

I agree its nice outside, but imo keep the 70 degree weather where it belongs. And that sure as hell ain't February 3rd

Actually, they are almost non-existent here (we have our tiger 'skeeters to deal with though); it's over from Homosassa to around Mexico Beach in the sweet sand areas that are bad; the absolute worst are around Cedar Key ... May - late September 9:00 AM to dark.
 
What a winter it has been so far! Broad brush RNK has put SNOW in my forecast every week, ONLY to take it out at game time.................................

SATURDAY...Partly sunny in the morning, then mostly cloudy with
a chance of rain showers in the afternoon. Highs in the mid 40s.
Chance of rain 40 percent.
.SATURDAY NIGHT...Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain showers. A
chance of snow showers after midnight. Lows in the lower 30s.
Chance of precipitation 50 percent.
.SUNDAY...Mostly sunny. A chance of rain and snow showers in the
morning. Highs in the upper 40s. Chance of precipitation
30 percent.
 
IF we don't get some significant freezes around here in late Feb/Mar then mosquito season is going to be a nightmare. I'd love a good snowstorm, but that's probably not in the cards at this point, but I'll take a genuine prolonged cold spell, just to stave off bug season for a while. I don't know for sure, but I'm almost certain this Winter is on par for the fewest nightly freezes on record.
