Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway. Alas, the focal length of the lens doesn't do the vertical height justice and my WB was off rendering it into semi-gross HDR territory, but still... fun looking weather! It was quite windy- I was flying right at 390 ft and the drone was giving me all sorts of warnings about sustained winds/gusts.
A most incredible snow storm. At times the snowfall rates have been as heavy or slightly heavier than January 2017. Temp 27.5, Dewpoint: 27.1 with gusty east wind and very heavy snow continuing. I'm at 11 1/2" now! UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This pic does no justice at all.
NBM is quite an interesting product! Their weighting algorithm is moderately complex and dynamic, though does has some drawbacks as we saw yesterday. For those who don't know, NBM is an attempt by NOAA to create a super probabilistic forecast model that ingests output from all the models above and outputs forecast guidance for local offices that help them to gauge the relative odds of particular weather outcomes. The 'special sauce' is the post-processing, normalization and weighting that they d
Call me crazy, but I have confidence in this Manhattan jury. In general, jurors take things seriously and want to do the right thing based on what is presented in court. I would grant that there's a higher than usual chance of shenanigans on the jury because the defendant is controversial and arguably the most famous person in the world, but hopefully the jurors just focus on what's important.
Trump's behavior in court could matter, and so far it seems like he's been behaving well in court (I'm assuming his lawyers have drilled this point home repeatedly). If somebody on the jury is on the fence about guilt or innocence, acting like an a-hole could sway them. Respect the process even if you feel like it's totally ridiculous.
On a personal note.... being in the pool is the first time I can walk and feel normal since February. Unfortunately I still need crutches when I get out. But I am able to put weight on bad leg now and use crutches more for balance. My physical therapist said last week he wanted me to go the public pool in NB or Issaquah for walking exercises and I said I can do even better than that being Charleston.
