Yeah... saw that one and pretty accurate from what I have heard.   Everyone is doing it and no one admits it.  But it comes out eventually.

Yep. It’s the future I guess. 
Originality is dead anyway I suppose.

GEFS is looking snowy even below 1000'.

Meanwhile.... off California

A strong system is currently undergoing rapid cyclogenesis (strengthening). The 00z GFS/Euro deepens this low to around 982/983mb by 11 AM Tuesday off the central California coast. I do not recall seeing a system like this off our coast this past Fall or Winter while California has been hammered with one strong storm after another. Fun stuff.

[TigerWoodsLibido]

Kids these days and their confounded AI images…

Day 7 Hmmm, much like the GFS the Euro op run wants to dig that second trough well offshore.

Winter cancel?

I'm already planting my tomatoes

Nice departure at SLE. Clearing skies this evening helped. We hit 32 by midnight. Now 20 out of 21 on the month. Unbelievable. Should beat 2012’s 23.

Indoors, starting them in peat and then moving them to potting soil inside. They'll be outside in a few weeks.

Respectable .70 here

Inaccurate, you don't even have a rain gauge.

[Cold Snap]

Put up a 51/44 yesterday. Looks like I could get another freeze tomorrow night.

EPS has actually been trending drier for the next 15 days... glad we picked up 3/4 of an inch of rain here over the last 24 hours.   There was a little more rain overnight but just cloudy and dry now.

12" of snow in my backyard on pretty much every model now. Don't know if we see that much, but 6-8" looking LIKELY!

Dear Andrew,

Thank you for bringing up the issue of sub freezing lows in the Willamette Valley. It is concerning to hear about the potentially damaging effects of such cold temperatures on crops and other agricultural products.

As a language model, I am not privy to the most current weather forecasts or data, but I encourage you to stay informed and take appropriate measures to protect your crops if necessary. This may include covering plants, utilizing heaters or other sources of warmth, or taking other precautions to prevent damage from the cold.

It is important that we all remain vigilant about potential weather events and their impacts on our communities, particularly as we continue to face the challenges of climate change. Thank you again for bringing attention to this issue, and I hope that measures can be taken to mitigate any potential damage.

Sincerely, ChatGPT

I had a meeting yesterday where someone asked our company President about ChatGPT and he went on and on for almost an hour about how amazing it is and how it even helped his daughter come up with a polite response to a guy who asked her out and she wanted to turn down.

Cloudy all night here. Low of 44°F. Definitely felt mild and spring-like on the ride into work.

Yeah it can be creepy but I think it’s also limited in some pretty key ways that should keep people from losing their minds with worry. At least FOR NOW.

Ultimately its just another way for the ultra wealthy and the elites to continue to concentrate wealth and resources at the top, and hope we don't notice.

How bout that 12z?

GEFS looks a lot better with the late month stuff than previous runs. Really hoping he can avoid a phat ridge the last few days of the month since it will mess up the ANOMALIES.
