We got rid of ours after Matthew last year. After moving all of that stuff (2 armchairs, rocker, love seat, tables, etc) all the way around the house to the garage, I decided to get rid of it all rather than carry it back again. New neighbors who had just moved in took most of it, and the rest was donated. Preparing for Irma was so much easier without the furniture.
Heh, yeah, a fair amount of stuff that went into the dumpster with the post-Harvey debris was stuff we didn't want to move next time. Still working hrough that stack, though. Amazing how much cruft you accumulate over the decades.
I never knew how much raw material a house contains until last year's flood. We live on a corner lot and we had to use every inch of yard between the sidewalk and street to clear out and gut a 1400 sq foot house and a 16x10 non attached building.

I regret even going to the Mississippi Gulf Coast to chase Nate last Saturday. Literally nothing happened until the eyewall came. I doubt it was even a hurricane when it made landfall. The worst weather I saw from Nate was on the I-10 when I intercepted it a 2nd time. It was really scary, but only because it was cross winds on a bridge.
SKYSUMMIT: I'm hoping we're shoveling snow for Christmas

stormydds: Thanks for your reply... as usual
Nov 5, 2022 11:37:29 GMT -6
Zack Fradella: Yea, Lezak had a paper peer reviewed and published a year or so ago.
Nov 5, 2022 9:03:24 GMT -6
stormydds: Thanks for your response. I felt that is the case. that's too bad. Has there been any peer reviewed papers on the LRC hypothesis?
Nov 4, 2022 14:01:51 GMT -6
Zack Fradella: Not sure, the LRC is something that takes a lot of work to follow and keep up with. It's not as easy as looking at the parameters and making a forecast. This deters many from even giving it a chance. Also, there is some doubt from the weather world.
Nov 4, 2022 3:38:49 GMT -6
stormydds: Zack, a friend had a meeting in Lafayette which Rob Perillo spoke.He asked him why the LRC is not used to forecast hurricanes by NOAA.His answer was that Lezak won't share the info.I saw the podcast you and David made with Gary.He seemed open.What gives?

SKYSUMMIT: Man I really hope that rain moves quickly on Saturday. I'm so pumped for 6 hours of awesome college football!

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Been unblocked. Dylan says that the station took major damage, so no idea when they'll even be able to stream again, or be on the air. Hopefully, they will at least let their employees deal with their own property issues!

gullywasher: Seriously, must we deal with Bruce Katz at noon, 4, 5 AND 9. ?

PinkFreud - Nola FQ: According to another met on twitter, the kitten was rescued by a producer who's adopting it. Of course that hasn't stopped the angry mob, with torches and pitchforks, who are insisting that it's a lie.

nolachic: Pink - he's probably blocking people he doesn't personally know to keep his cell charged and to get his head straight, and I'm sure he is beyond exhausted.
Sept 29, 2022 9:23:35 GMT -6
SKYSUMMIT: I sent him a message yesterday as well, but he hasn't seen it.
Sept 29, 2022 5:46:06 GMT -6
PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Oh hell, I meant for that to be a message!
Sept 28, 2022 19:38:19 GMT -6
PinkFreud - Nola FQ: Dylan is taking a beating on Twitter. I just tried to send him a message of support, since we've been following each other for years, and HE BLOCKED ME!!!!!! Somebody who can get to him needs to do so, pronto!!! I'm very worried about him.

HarahanTim - Now in Covington!: Hmmm, I will say. that somewhere back there, we have stored the "Tums" icon, for those that give a prediction based on their "gut"!
