WTF is with this bleeping weather?

[Angel Oracle]

El Nino = the new setback.

El nino is working on some things

I used to play a course in Ketchican, Alaska when I worked on a salmon seiner up there.

It had wood chip fairways and rolled sand greens.

You guys are awfully impatient. When the jet stream drops a little farther south later in the winter, you'll get your share.

People down there can't drive in the rain anyhow.

No argument from me on the drivers down here, especially when the first rain in a while happens.

They ignore the oil that seeps out from the freeway grooves with that rain, and voila, losing control of their car or not breaking soon enough.

Snowing here right now and super windy.

El Nino = the new setback.

 

El Nino had a fantastic bullpen session, and we know how those usually turn out.

[Tank]

[nate]

I guess Trojans don't have blankets?

[Hollyw00d]

Friggin cold

[Mark68]

Blizzard conditions in Denver tonight. Rain just north of here.

 

Lights keep flickering, guessing we'll be losing power at some point.

Late season thunderstorms here in KC. Kinda comforting, as this will likely be the last until about April. From here on out it's just crap until mid-March

[Homebrewer]

And I'm about 1000 ft higher than town...

My recording thermometer said 24.6 was my low last night.

Sequoia/Kings Canyon got about 9.5" of snow in the last day or so. Some areas have 16" on the ground. Pretty good for this early.

SoCal weather FINALLY shows some sustained rain potentially coming in by around Christmas.

Let's hope the drought ending is started then.

[Homebrewer]

Gonna take years of this kind of rain and snow to put a dent in 4-5 years (officially 4 years, but it has been well over that in many areas) of drought.

But it's a start. Many wells in my area have gone dry, wells that have produced faithfully for decades and decades.

Some cant afford to redrill, and even those that can afford it are waiting up to 2 years for an available driller.

The potable water companies here are making money hand over fist...big tankers that come and fill well tanks with 3500-4000 gallons at a time, @ $200.00+ a pop. New companies have sprung up, and existing ones have been buying new and bigger trucks.

[Angel Oracle]

And yet some on here joke about the dry day after dry day weather.

If it were to go on for one more year even, we are talking catastrophic consequences.   Heck, they may even be here now.

 

You can't have 4-5 year droughts with the population that this state has.    

[Homebrewer]

It's serious shit AO. Water is life. You can live long times without other stuff, but only a few days without water.

[Angel Oracle]

So let me get this straight enso/noaa.

First you say El Nino will peak in mid/late autumn.

Then you say it will peak in late autumn/early winter.

Then you say it will peak in January.

 

Maybe if you keep delaying it, you might get it right?  SMH

[Homebrewer]

I peaked in the mid to late 70's.

 

But back to the weather...it is mid 60's today here.

Clean fresh air from all the recent rains, the maples, aspens, and sycamores have all turned red-gold.

The mornings are a crisp 30's with frost.

F'n Glorious.

[Adam]

It will be okay, ladies

 

[Adam]

They're certainly not rain drops
