Nanuq Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I apologize in advance for what Alaska is about to do to you..... http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/11/06/362008782/as-it-turns-extra-tropical-typhoon-nuri-could-challenge-all-time-record "the Aleutian Islands will be pummeled with 40 to 50 foot waves and wind gusts of up to 100 mph" "this storm is so strong that it will also cause the jet stream to plunge south, bringing cold temperatures to a huge part of the U.S." "during that so-called "bombogenesis" the storm's central pressure will deepen from 970 MB late Thursday to between 918 to 922 MB late Friday. For reference, the lowest central pressure of Hurricane Andrew (1992) was 922 millibars." Looks like we're in for an exciting weekend!

We have had unusually warm weather this fall. I played golf in shorts on Saturday and the high today will be in the low 30's with very cold winds. I think we skipped fall and went straight into winter. Suppose to snow in the next couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomhorn Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Yep, it's going to be terrible here today. May get all the way down into the high 50's tonight. If this keeps up I may have to break out a long sleeved shirt ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost took a position down there 2 years ago, but just having a hard time leaving the org I work for. I am a golfer and obviously a convertible car guy, so I hate winters. As I get older I hate them more. Damn arthritis kills me this time of year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
