I understand your disagreement and its more of a technical one that an actual one. Yes, as a weather hobbyist, I'm very aware that we can now usually get a pretty good idea of development regions 3 days in advance with pretty reliable skill.
The hedge with chaos theory and trouble there is putting that in an equation with and in direct opposition to equal and opposite reactions, fluid dynamics within a sphere, roles of elevated mixed layers in severe weather initiation, etc (and I'm probably pretty lost after that), but I just find too many holes there.
What I'm speaking to is that supercell storms on the scale of a May 1999 storm at Moore or a repeat in 2013 were not exactly within a scale of predictability in the sense that those storms developed so quickly and powerfully that I still think with all the ability in the world we couldn't solve the problem. Do I think it would be the most amazing thing ever? Yeah. I've thought of what something like that would be like for a long time.
Another part of using the NWS surveillance system or even doing this by satellite on a larger scale is going to be all the other types of harm that can be caused by stray radiation or microwaves.
The other question that a guy like me asks is, "If the climate is truly so fragile...." type-questions and I'd be here all day with you on those.
I don't have any experience operating radar, I'm sure there's a lot there that I obviously don't know. I haven't actually been taught very many of the things I do know, so I know there's much I can still learn. The plus sides are I don't and haven't learned in a defined construct with rules, per se. It gives me a different perspective.
The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 77/46 there was no rainfall the total rainfall for May 2024 was 3.16” that is a departure of -0.84”. There was 84% of possible sunshine yesterday. For today the average H/L is 75/54 the record high of 102 was set in 1934. The record low of 36 was set in 1993. The most rainfall of 2.65” fell in 1970. Last year it was a hot 91/63
She’s come full circle. Voted for Obama twice, sat out 2016 and 2020. Voted for the first time since 2012 in the 2022 mid terms (people forget the Republican gubernatorial candidate only lost by 2.6% that year.), and is extremely motivated to vote for Trump this year. She supports abortion rights too, but the democrats are too extreme on that issue even for her and have completely alienated her on everything else. She’s really connected with the working class Hispanic community in this area, and reports that demographic is undergoing a rapid shift politically. She finds Bidens woke pandering to be patronizing racism and much more deeply offensive than Trump railing against illegals.
