After this morning's "sprinkle" event with 0.01" of rain here in East Nantmeal Township that ended our dry streak at 32 days we clear up this afternoon and turn windier and chillier. A slightly chillier than normal weekend ahead before we warm back up to near 70 degrees by Election Day next Tuesday. We cool a bit again by the end of the first week in November.
Ya, it looks like my area into So Cal/4 corners will be stealing the cooler/colder weather...I'll say this though, as long as the parade of storms systems keep digging like they are, it will certainly bode well for the majority of our Sub in the central/southern areas and into the lower lakes/OHV. It appears to me, that a LRC Hot Spot is setting up right in the heart of the LRC when it really counts.
In due time, the STJ fires up and shifts south and we could be seriously looking at a firehouse pattern when this cycles through in the colder months. This SW Flow pattern that has just set up this week looks like it has the potential to be a Long Duration moist and active 10+ day pattern. Maybe even longer? Like you said in an earlier post, you guys have had a wonderful Autumn. My sister agrees with you! Keep the cold when it counts and let me area take a break from the Heat and Above normal temps for a change!
Here is CPC's take...
Finished this in the wee hours. For any of those on the fence , @Hoosier, I know is one. The discussion fleshes out the modes and actions of governance the parties drift to and away from. Some of it was about Trump, but most of the discussion was beyond Trump. The direction Trump set the party on is now larger than him. No different than rolling a manageably sized snowball. It gets momentum down a hill and is then beyond the control of the one who started it.
I know J6 is a hangup. But what made me indifferent to Trump to moving into his camp were the flagrancy and frequency of outright lies or distortions perpetuated by the media about him. J6 is no different. Perhaps another discussion of specifics is warranted, but I want to be brief. Couple that with Biden/Harris weaponizing the DoJ against him and literally jailing their political opponents, I’ve learned this is bigger than Trump. Trump was an anomaly that challenged their petty games of power. They reacted against that. He revealed who these people are in governance of both Democrat, establishment Republican, media, and the administrative state. The mask of pretence was ripped off. Despite his gregarious faults, that cannot be overlooked.
Trump will be gone soon. But the change he set Republicans on will outlive him. Again, drown out spin and hysteria from the media. Give Vance a few hours of your time to hear him unfiltered and unplugged. He’s likely the future of the party. I think hearing Vance out will help with an informed decision. Even hearing Trump’s three hours with Rogan will help. But I found Vance the best.
