Looks like most spots around Seattle have done it 2-3 times though.

Fair enough. I remember reading somewhere that US crude was heavier than the Middle East stuff, but a quick check shows that to be incorrect. The tar sands stuff in Alberta has long struck me to be particularly bad. Some of it has to be extracted via giant strip mines. That's obviously worse than drilling some wells and pumping it out.

Now you’re flat out lying, bro. You wanted to meet me for drinks once, and I’m an alcoholic that was 3 months sober at the time. And had work obligations during the 3 days you were in town. Never referenced any grandmother. The fact you’d frame it this way suggests you’re intentionally projecting your own social anxieties. Because that ain’t me, home nuggets.

Wow! It hasn't even hit 50 here this month.

Nothing but good model trends today. The graphcast continues with the dig back idea with the initial cold shot, which results in a lot colder outcome with snow likely. Gotta love the EPS mean! It actually shows a few days with daily averages over 10 degrees below normal for Seattle.
