That's even worse than 72 hours for the moon to crash. Play the Song of Time over and over and over. Better practice up as any mistakes could mean it's all over.

I'd rather have 72 hours. But 10 seconds is enough to start slowing down high speed trains to 'low' speed by the time earthquake hits. The trains won't be able to stop entirely but they will have slowed way down by the time the 'quack' hits so by the time any track may be damaged it's far easier to stop.

In other words I'd rather a low speed collision then a high speed one.

I'm not sure, but I would bet the PNW is better for warm core (southerly flow) thunderstorms than the UK.  We can get some real nice ones on occasion.   

I've heard some pretty neat ones in the UK. The last few years have been absolutely steller while 2014 thru 2016 were pretty poor I believe.

I was replying to Snow Whizar'ds quote how history get's messed up over time especially when we have few sources to begin with! It's how the telephone game works where one person orally passes a message then..............

What I said about blue states is true. Police are not allowed to do their jobs and you have overzealous officers that are 'Karens' that believe they have the answers to all police problems. 

I used to admire Australia and wished to visit there but not anymore after what they've gone thru I cannot morally support them.

Oh trust me I’ve thought about it but unfortunately in our society he’s somehow more protected than I am. There was literally no point in getting a restraining order I’ve called the police atleast 30 times reporting violations but I’ve just given up they won’t do anything…I have a camera and have got him on video and they STILL do nothing. Moving somewhere else is my only option. 

Sucks but not to be insensitive this is the result of a massive blue state. Police are NOT allowed to do their jobs anymore so no matter how much you cry they are NOT going to do anything about whomever is violating your restraining order. You'll have to take your own action.

If your one of the cops with actual values tough luck getting ahead in your career as a result a lot are transferring or quitting out right.

You have on one camp a new 'set' of officers with military style thinking which makes them trigger happy and on the other camp you have officers that can't do anything without political peer pressures yelling and screaming at them. Worse then that they could be F-I-R-E-D and be black marked for life if they try to get a job anywhere else. 

In Victoria AU police are quitting in droves being asked to do immoral things down there they refuse to do. AU is a sinking continent so to speak so it's not a good place to go either unless you don't mind your balcony door being taped shut. 

If I could afford a mansion it would be a tough place  to find a good spot these days due to a variety of factors both climate and political.

I have done some thinking why Columbus Day is such a big deal.  I think you have to look at the context.  When he discovered America the people in Europe had no idea that North America even existed.  He opened up a whole new world to them so it's understandable that people made a big deal out of it.  Eventually that fame they bestowed upon him was transferred to the United States with the Pilgrims and early settlers.  It's only recently it kind of dawned on us that he was actually late to the party so to speak.

That having been said I think the revulsion people feel for him is kind of overblown.  We don't even know for sure what actually happened in any kind of detail.  Things get distorted over time.

"Things get distorted over time"

It's like the telephone game where one person passes a message then the other passes the message and before you know it the message becomes something else entirely! Then the 'media' will only show the messed up one.  Fox news will show the 'old' message for like 1 day which almost nobody see's it.

  If they haven't scrubbed it you may find the 'old' message left intact on page 200 in search results.

Good thing whatever that storm was was a non-event here. So whatever stupid name you’re talking about is something we know nothing of. Must not have been that big of a deal.

I know that storm! We were on the tail end of it in Silverton. Some large branches of our neighbors tree came down and Dad helped them saw it.  The power went out a few hours in our end of town. The entire town almost lost power.  If the storm was a notch stronger it would've been a different story entirely!

Why? It looks like a western movie.  Is it the song 'Map is real and on fire?" I have heard it before on the Wilderness Lodge music loop from WDW 'source' audio long version which is not available anywhere as YouTube has the newer edition which edited a lot of stuff out:

Either that or time is actually accelerating and it’s all relative for everyone?!

That's actually really interesting as you'll like what R/Retconned has to say about that subject. Interesting posts that will make you go out of your 'boxed' way of thinking. 

One person is a musician in one of the posts there and the issue is quite noticeable since he deals with BPM a lot. (Beats Per Minute) which is VERY crucial to music.

Like I said before if you look at who's recently posted without even reading the dam page you can deduce what way the models went.  The 'puke' runs it's usually Tim and Phil then on cold runs Snow shows up like out of nowhere.  Both take turns in the same closet! Is it fun in there or something? I hope they don't find the small mysterious padlocked door..................................

There’s rain on the models…there’s no 2 week dry streak coming. I get it there’s definitely been drought concerns it’s real I’ve been talking about it all summer long too. But honestly some of y’all sound a bit dramatic to me. Recent rains have significantly helped…fire seasons over the rain is returning. It’s not just going to be dry forever and ever in the winter time too. After all the rain we’ve just had and this is on the models what is there to complain about honestly? 

The top one is like a couple men spitting into my rain gauge. I'd like a moderate rain event once every two weeks. We are so far behind in rain we are as dry as Redmond.  3 inches of rain since Feb 18th and not much rain before that then spits and spots here and there.  Mostly there: 

 Without the Feb storm we would've had way less then what we got. We went to Lebanon just before the rains and it was SUPER SUPER dusty and I saw a dustnado try to form.  The ground was cracked in a lot of places which it looked literally like Fresno in August.

Lol we just had like a really wet pattern I’m not sure what the concern is more rain will come it’ll be just fine we’re headed into fall. This would be like complaining about the lack of snowfall coming up over the next week on the models immediately after it just dumped a foot of snow during a winter event. 

1 moderate to heavy rain storm (depending on your locale) with 2 weeks of dryness and more dryness likely = really wet pattern..................(insert compute error here)

Why is it rarely the opposite? Why couldn’t 1” turn into 5”? The reason is because the vast majority of lows in our region end up north of where they are initially forecasted or they lose their oomph as the swing on in. 
 

The CPC gives us a high probability of above average precipitation in both the 6-10 day timeframe and the 8-14 day. They will have to change that whenever they update their products. 

(Computer voice) 'I'm sorry Joshua but that is wrong think and can't be allowed'.  

Which has better and more lightning? No biases here please if you can help it but I'd love for some personal memories with it which I don't mind! Which parts of the UK have the best lightning and areas to avoid the same with the PNW? Which are literal hell holes in terms of weather avoidance? 

Net Weather TV is a very interesting forum much more active then here for the UK.  It's fun to read what happens over there time to time. Parts of the UK are in a very steep drought mostly the SE and Wales are parched.  They had a REALLY bad drought in 1921.

This was A: a year ago, and B: not tied to anything politically as far as motivation. This is a misinformed waste of a post, goodness me.

Oops wrong article.  I didn't see the date but there's a newer one from this year just a day or so ago about a chemistry PHD being arrested for the Redding fire. Not sure where you saw any date.

So, if you had just 10 seconds advanced earthquake warning, what could you do with it?   
At home?

At work?

It would give enough time for auto sensors to open fire truck doors so fire trucks won't be stuck in the event of a power fail!  Hospitals can safely hut down equipment and switch to emergency power ahead of time and shut gas off,etc

Anita Esquivel Accused of Setting California Arson Fires | Heavy.com

Anita Esquivel is a California woman who is accused of setting arson fires along Highway 101 near Salinas, California.

She is one of several people on the west coast to be charged recently with setting arson fires as states battle major wildfires, and authorities push back against what they say are false rumors that Antifa is involved."

God she looks like she is high on something. Just look at the picture of her in the article: 

They won't say it is but I highly suspect if she isn't part of Antifa like they claim she is most definitely an Antifa wannabe and heavily inspired by them to 'pursue the goals of climate activism'. 

I wonder what they are NOT telling us? It just keeps getting juicer and juicer as you go down the rabbit hole of the left!

If you still vote for these a******* in then your the problem now not these a******* whom are lemmings. They count on the voting public for 'funding'.  Geez so THAT'S where all the missing road repair money goes........

Aren't they always having a whole lotta shakin? You can't tell between an earthquake from all the construction and noisy traffic!

It's a lot more sane then here.  Net Weather TV forums is the best one:

Too bad it's on the other side of the pond but they have similar weather patterns in many ways.

The Chile and the western prepice  of the Andes of South America south of the equator suffer the same drought conditions of western North America. The Chilean drought is discussed in this article:Chilean drought

https://www.yahoo.com/news/climate-change-fueling-warm-ocean-130241184.html

The deforestation of the Amazon also impacts Chile just as it does California. The west moving atmospheric river created by the rainforest is diminishing as the forest is cut down. The Hadley cell circulation south has reduced water content as a result.  

Okay that's a good summary of the sea of words above. 

Sounds like someone was trying REAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLY hard to get their BS degree in that sea of words. I THINK I see the king of red lions down there. I need some binoculars or perhaps I could borrow Aryl's telescope unless she gave it to grandma for some dumb reason then it's back to plan 1. Secure some expensive binoculars with good zoom distance!

I'm sure mother nature has handled this before when globull temperatures were more then 3F on average in 1,000 to 1200AD when Greenland was actually (gasp) drum rolls..................GREEN! With subsidized farming thriving!  Grapes were grown and imported from Canada.  Makes me wonder what the PNW was like. I bet it was absolutely depressing with long hot summers and icky foggy no snow winters.
