    Cyclonic bombs away !

    I don't remember so many silly, colorful phrases for the weather growing up. Then again, I don't remember the red pill either.

    We periodically here on Vancouver Island get "Pacific weather bombs" in the fall and winter months mostly intensified in El Nino years.We have not really had on in a while,but I know what the people in that part of North America are going through when these things go through! The side effects of weakened jet stream contained polar vortex due to climate change,maybe.....
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt! :roll:

    Walk and Talk like a Canajun!!

    Basically our "bomb cyclone" was a classic nor'easter, actually very common round here from fall through winter and spring. The "bomb" designation for this one was due to the rather abrupt and significant pressure drop which resulted in the high cyclonic winds. Excluding Hurricane Sandy, nor'easters generally cause more damage round here than hurricanes. Most hurricanes tend to swing out to sea once they get this far north where as nor'easters tend to hit us head on. And being driven by cold air rather than warm air nor'easters give us the bulk of our snow. And once in a blue moon nor'easters have been known to team up with hurricanes to really wreak havoc with our weather.

    I won't talk about the 73 degrees right outside my door in Marijuana.....
    Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.

    42º felt downright balmy today after nearly 2 weeks of lows in the teens and some single digit nights.

    Our temps keep hovering near normal but our precipitation is behind schedule. Still too early to use the D word because it's only Jan.

    Rain's a coming. They're worried you might get too much at once and shift the topsoil rather rapidly.
