Chaser Con 2010
15 minutes ago
by John Huntington
I'm here in Denver once again for the National Storm Chaser Convention (and a bit of pre-convention skiing in Snowmass). I went last year, and it made my head hurt so much that I took a college-level meteorology course this summer, and went on a supercell chase in South Dakota with Roger Hill. I sti ...

Crazy Place We Call Home
36 minutes ago
by Will Simmons
Highs around the area were in the mid 40s today…. Why would I start off by saying that? High temps occurred in the early morning hours when most of us were asleep! Temperatures dropped off into the mid-to-upper 30s by lunchtime, and shortly after dark, we were below the freezing mark! Add in wind gu ...

Day 15 – Modifications
40 minutes ago
by Dannette
The 11 or so inches of snow we got today (it’s still falling) left me disinclined to walk outside or even drive to the YMCA. Instead, I modified this week’s training schedule. The new version is below: Monday: Off (as scheduled) Tuesday: Cross-training (originally on Thursday) Wednesday: 1 easy mile ...

Just Random Crap
41 minutes ago
by Drum Bear Woman
Thank you, Great Mystery. The rain has been wonderful. Got a perm on Sunday. It's not quite what I wanted. I don't know why I keep trying perms - they never work. My hair is just not perm-friendly. At least it didn't fry my hair - even w/out conditioner tonight, it's really soft. Everyone at work is ...

by QUEEN OF THE DINOSAURS
This city falls apart in the snow. No buses above-ground Metro. Streets are filled with snow. Maybe it's the volume of snow we've gotten. I've given up on hoping for that, though. I walk around in Andrew's leaky boots with a bag taped over my foot. (I didn't Plan Ahead, and mine are in transit somew ...

This explains so much about Minako (Look under both spoilers. *winks*) More digging out today. Got the driveway cleared again. Mostly. It looks like some of it has filled in tonight. Dad made it home ok, thankfully. Gotta get up early tomorrow. Gotta pick up Mom and take her to some thing that is ha ...

Not cool (literally)
1 hour ago
by Kate
Map from wunderground. It’s cooler in the sahara. Ok, so, it’s cooler in the sahara at 3am than it is in Adelaide at 2pm. BUT STILL. I am going to miss my evaporative air conditioning when we move.

i hate driving in the snow
1 hour ago
by invisiblecompany
I was supposed to be in Pleasanton CA this week for 3 days of training, but it got moved to Chicago. Or to be precise, a western suburb of Chicago. Instead of sunny weather, I woke up to 3-4" of snow, had to shovel my way out of my space and drive 1.5hrs to get to the training. Coming back was worse ...

Why Today is a Snow Day
1 hour ago
by Always Home and Uncool
The automated messaging system called to let us know that schools would be closed today because of the impending blizzard. That call came at 7 o’clock. Last night. The Things, however, decided not to take chances. Right before bed they continued their long-standing “vague hint of a snowstorm” ritual ...

Driving in a winter wonderland.
1 hour ago
by Min
I just got home (and missed the 9 p.m. showing of "White Collar") after driving through the weirdest snow storm on the Cumberland Plateau. It was so cold--19 degrees--that the snow was very fine and very dry, and the wind kept blowing up huge clouds of it from where it lay on the roadbed. It was lik ...
