MR.SNOWMIZER

Perfect weather to work outside today, love it. Nice and cool.

A gross 73 here. A fukin hate this crap in march and I couldn't make my Alaska trip because of issues with leaving work.  Locking myself inside my shop at home where it's cool and working on some projects.  

Complete pipe dream wishing for 60 plus all week in March, LOL. Not going to happen.

Gfs is showing snow out here later in the month.

Looking more and more likely to see one last small snow event out here before spring really starts.

Only 61 here today much better than I expected,  hopefully we can stay in the mid 60’s at most out here tomorrow.

Not by me. 

"Overrated" is such a subjective term anyway, especially when you're talking about large states that have a ton of variability in scenery, terrain, climate, population centers, etc.

As I've said before, I agree that Denver is an overrated city. And people have finally got the memo and stopped moving here in droves...we actually have had net emigration over the past couple years.

Most people that say over rated have not explored it much. We rented a airbnb at 12k feet, hard to do that anywhere else in the lower 48. We stayed off the busy highways and did deep exploring and that state has so many stunning areas. Just an amazing place.

My son just had a seizure a couple of nights ago.  Sick feeling for the people watching.  I can't imagine how it must have felt in the days there wasn't medication to stop them.

I'm so sorry you have to go through that.

He was waiting for the stupid insurance to approve it or something, ridiculous!! I remember our first cat scan my wife was waiting on the insurance to OK, we waiting in the office a couple hrs and i could see she was scared and waiting was making it worse. I finally walked up the the office and said do the D**n scan now and i will write a check. No cool to make people wait for important medical things like this.

This summer is going to suck donkey balls. Fully expect it’ll be the hottest summer ever for the lower-48, and by a wide margin. Worst possible alignment of seasonal forcings.

Good chance there won’t be any cool departures to speak of, except maybe June.

 

Well this sux, why in the hell anyone would love this is clinically insane.

The ECMWF spits out a 46/29 for the 22nd in Seattle.

That would be awesome.

Looks like some places this weekend could end up with a 72/35 type day or in that ball park.  These trough to ridge transitions can kick out some wild diurnal spreads.

Hopefully nothing more than 72, We are hoping for mid 60"s out here at most.

I'm not sure what his point is here.  We had a very cold starting March too.

Winter ends March 19th.

Great climate up there.  Even colder than Winthrop a lot of times.

My low on my station for January was -34.4! If it was that cold there on a hill i know the deep canyon below my place was -40 no problem. I have seen 20 below in that canyon and 5 below at cabin. 

We had some crazy weather at the cabin, Both days it would be sunny and 45 and then a storm would roll in, drop the temp to 30 and lay down 2 inches of snow with a bunch of wind. There is between 6-18 inches of snow up there.

Haven't you got the memo? Cold spells are the only form of desirable weather and it is only permissible to model ride for cold and snow. Deviation from this rule constitutes trolling.

Right on man!

Anyway…here’s the EPS. Pretty nasty for this early. Not a lot I can say to sugarcoat it.

Punishment for our taste of winter.

Definitely starting to look like potentially 7+ days of mid to upper 60s are on the table

Wow much worse than i though. Yuck.

Lol what a freak show this will be, Mike is 58 but still incredible Dangerous and in super human condition. Jake is a new guy that has limited experience but has heart and is in great shape.

But... He has never been in the ring with a man that can hit like Mike Tyson and for 30 seconds of each round Mike is still very dangerous. If they are allowed to go all out i say Mike Knocks out the young kid in second round.

I’ve seen pictures of Valdez and it looks like a pretty horrible town. 

Fly to Anchorage and get a airbnb near valdez. 6hr drive. 

Doing everything i can to try and make this trip happen to valdez, They look to get crushed in that area with storm after storm. Should be fun. About 4-5 days should do it and be enough time to avoid the heat wave here.

Light snow and 34 when I left for work a bit ago

If it's a death ridge, can we name it Melissa?

That was my wife's name but with one s.
