That's why they're installing kiosks in most of them. The days of the happy-go-lucky McDonald's cash register worker are almost over

I was reading some franchise owners report on this and their labor cost hasn't changed but order sizes and "premium" food ordered has increased after adding kiosks. MORE DERAILMENT SORRY OFFICER J-DOG

The Niño 3.4 number doesn’t tell the whole story.

There was a healthy, quasi-stable niña low pass signal during the first part of that winter. The atmosphere was well coupled. There was no major intraseasonal event (MJO/SSW et al) that could have torpedoed the base state like that.

Not only did it abruptly fall apart without warning, but come February the atmosphere had coupled to the niño-costero signature as if it was a mature niño event. That’s not supposed to happen.

It’s cute you think it’s as simple as a cursory glance at the niño 3.4 number, though. I used to think that way..when I was 11yrs old.

lol. lmao. 

It'd be cool if we could view model output (upper level, large scale progression type of stuff/500mb) on 3D maps rather than the 2D distorted projections

Hoping we can get some of our classic May/June ULL action this year. Those are good at bringing needed rainfall to both the east side and west side.

18z gfs was trying!! 

Beautiful morning in the methow. Everything is green but it’s noticeable how dry the ground is relative to years past.

if dryness becomes the trend for Spring, that's far from hyperbole this time.  we already have pending restrictions now over here based on river flow.  snowpack less than 70%.  not too far fetched.  cheers

This is a real post. I appreciate it. Start with this next time

Glad you’re ok brother! You had me worried haha, usually you’re on here posting immediately after a big storm so I was worried you got hit by debris or something.  

As stated previously, I suspect you’re in for a big league severe season, orders of magnitude above the mediocrity of the last 3 years in that region (meanwhile I’m probably in for a sub-par season, for the same reason). Hope u get some good video!

meh, storms were probably stronger during the jurassic period.

Looks like spring break for the Snoqualmie Valley School District next week might be well-timed this year.   First 80 degree day possible out here if Euro suite is right.

Early April was pretty cold and snowy here last year. 

Even snowed downtown Seattle. Crazy. Wish I could remember stuff like this. Havana syndrome really messes with the memory 

We still had over a foot of snowpack last year in twisp

Probably best to ignore the “climate emergency” accounts on social media. Most of their posts either lack context or are outright false.

Thanks captain

Genosser, a true Trotskyite would understand that the reactionary is flawed from birth and cannot be saved as their continued existence is a parasitic one to the cause of the people. In order to liberate the worker, you must liberate the reactionary of their earthly existence. It is only then that when they find their personal burdens freely painted onto a brick wall, that they can find their true place in a global revolution.

Hey did you ever get that new job

Schlotskys was the best sub shop imo
