Front Ranger Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 36 minutes ago, TT-SEA said: Yeah... its going to be much harder for SEA to run above normal. Its a cold anomaly lovers dream. Just set the bar much lower and its all good! Well, it's more that now about half of SEA's 30 years record (2005-2020) is affected by the land use changes and third runway. All of the stations are obviously at least somewhat affected by the change from 1981-2010 to 1991-2020. Quote A forum for the end of the world.
