Forum meet up at the Nashville airport! 

I'll be there at 3pm CST near the Alaska gates!!

Flight out of Nashville tomorrow evening at 6pm local time to KSEA.

No delays so far, but I am not encouraged by what I've heard lately

Stuck in Nashville for 2 days

We are scheduled to fly out Wednesday evening.

Scheduled being the operative word

10f in Clarksville, TN right now

Got a tornado watch issued for tonight in central Arkansas.

I may not get much sleep tonight!

I think the lowest 850s on record for SEA was -22 in Feb 1956.

Sitting in a motel room just north of Little Rock, AR 

Expecting scattered severe storms overnight.

I avoided snow all the way here, but now have to deal with this before I head to TN in the morning

Parents getting heavy snow in Mill City, OR at about 900'

Hoping for a bit of delay in all the Winter weather for a bit as I will be driving my daughter's new car back to TN next week.

Leaving 1/9 and heading south to Barstow, CA and then east on I40 to Nashville by 1/12.

Would prefer no snow, but at least it's a Subaru Forester

Was in the Shedd/Tangent area a bit ago and there was a rain snow mix and 35f.

More than positive splat, actual flakes!

I call that a win

Clarksville, TN. 

EF3 600yd wide path

675 homes damaged

3 deaths, 67 transported

The red dot is my daughter's house that was not damaged.

A lot to be thankful for this Christmas

All this snow talk and my daughter in Clarksville, TN just had a tornado pass within a half mile of her house.

Other houses destroyed or damaged to her NW.

Poor quality video(if it uploads)

Well, my father is undergoing 3x bypass surgery in less than 24 hours.

Do that get me a pass into the Rough Year Club?

Found this little fella on the front porch yesterday.

So cute!

Just got back from a wedding in Aurora, Or.  Crazy lightning and torrential rain on I 5 south of Woodburn.

Sorry that my wife had to drive because I had too many whisky sours!

Now watching lightning to the north from home. 66f dp of 64. So nice!

These could be juicy if we get hit by one. Models have them developing in the vicinity later this evening. September is our big thunderstorm month for whatever reason. 2013 and 2020 had some epic storms. The end of our road washed out in September 2020 when we got 1.79” of rain in about 90 minutes. 

This was 2020 after about 35 minutes of rain/hail that turned our house into an island.

It was bad enough that the rats that live along our creek were scrambling throughout the neighborhood

Dang I caught 5 trout on consecutive casts on the McKenzie right before the rain hit. Great day to paddle up to Harrisburg. 

UP to the north, but downriver!

Should have put in above Hayden and run the rapids. Always fun in a drift boat

Experienced some incredible weather and ocean monday while fishing out of Newport. Also caught 23 tuna.  Good day

Buddy dropped off some tuna loins from his trip a couple days ago.

Ceviche with cucs and tomatoes from the garden, coconut, cilantro rice was last night's dinner.

Feel guilty for not being part of the 35 mile run to blue water and blood bath, but D**n, it was good!

First flash to the south

Waiting in the backyard for something to happen.

74f and very pleasant.

Radar echoes getting closer but no flashes yet

The wording seems weird to you because it cites a scientific study for its methodology, which makes comments on being an "alarmist" funny since the tweet explained where it got its conclusion instead of taking a surface glance and immediately yelling at clouds.

This forum is the climate version of phrenology, just wild how far people on here will entrench themselves in politics to the point they goosestep around and over science until another quack shows up to reassure them that their unearned authority that stems from having an undergrad-level understanding of how to read/ride models is actually legit and not 100% doctrinaire samethink (which it actually is).

Don't get mad--I don't expect any of you to--but this forum is a toxic blight parading as pop science. The folks bringing legit science are constantly, desperately trying to stay above your taint and I feel sorrow for them. They're trying and it's wasted on those of you who are over here gooning because "lol its named hilary where are the emails lmao" or whatever the comments on news websites are saying now.

Just lol at the resident clowns in this low rent circus

Why are you here, sensei?

Why are you here, sensei?

Working in the garage right now with the door open.

Wouldn't want it all summer, but it feels great this evening.

High of 104f outside

Decoupled nicely in West Salem when the wind ceased overnight. Was 63f when I got up at 445am
