I mean you say that but I'm fully expecting hurricanes to be "regular weather" at some point and they'll shrink the window to "the time period when they can get comparatively really bad" in true hypernormalization fashion

There's hardly any day of the year when there's never been an Atlantic hurricane active that day

i agree with the extended season though. hurricane populations are getting out of control and human activity has removed their natural predators.

I'm kind of meh on defined seasons. It is good for awareness but always results in a lot of stupid semantics. Just like naming winter storms - gently caress off with that poo poo.

this is like when they changed winter parking regulations to start on nov 15 instead of dec 1 and i got a ticket for parking on the street overnight. climate change affects us in odd ways.

Obviously we need to thin their numbers, by nuking them. Trump was right, yet again :smug:

Yeah but I can see why The Weather Channel does it because for like 4 years in a row there were nasty winter storms that jammed up major cities and every one of them was just named by Twitter with completely indistinguishable #SnowRagnorak type hashtags.

The reason is actually money, they don't give a poo poo about that other thing.

Louisville used to get severe flooding all the time, but they have a pretty good drainage system now. Rural Kentucky is some of the poorest regions in The entire country and can't say the same.

One run, one model...

From calibrated ensemble data, there is a ~50% chance of 12"+ of snow in Denver. The range is huge though, with the IQR being 1 to 18" right now. As they say, "continue to monitor the forecast for updates".
