EVERYTHING is getting more expensive. Disneyland is literally for the rich now including other theme parks which this year they have been way less crowded then usual causing a lot of changes to be done.<br /><br /> As long as minimum wage (without the rest of the wages) goes up it will price things out of business. That's just how economics work not the feel good BS tactics taught in liberal ran school.sTruckerTuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859114057160996512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-41845199041828623092019-12-07T00:14:47.332-08:002019-12-07T00:14:47.332-08:003 feet of nucleated snow?

A strong jet stream means that depressions will frequently move from west to east, giving a "zonal" pattern over the UK. Because the Atlantic is relatively warm and moist, assisted by the warm North Atlantic Drift, zonal types often tend to be mild- but not always.<br /><br />A weak jet means lows track less frequently from west to east and blocking highs can form more readily. Whether we get cold wintry weather depends on the positioning of the high.TruckerTuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859114057160996512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-65382490441423128282019-12-07T00:10:58.584-08:002019-12-07T00:10:58.584-08:00This is the best source to get news on the 'ot...This is the best source to get news on the 'other' side of the pond.

If you pay attention to a line about 143 west that is where there is a lot of funny activity going on. It's best to get raw maps that are not edited in any way. The storms go up to Alaska and drive down the east side of the nation due to the funny activity and some of it goes over the UK due to the Greenland Low.<br /><br />The UK has had a record wet autumn and a few dry days with frosty nights to start the month with more lines of storms about to pound the UK and central/southern Europe.TruckerTuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859114057160996512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-69734669391028320842019-12-06T22:22:32.436-08:002019-12-06T22:22:32.436-08:00We probably get the, if not THE nicest summer weat...We probably get the, if not THE nicest summer weather of anywhere in the country or even Planet Earth. At some point though, we need to recharge the snow pack and the aquifers. AKA: Pay our dues. <br /><br />Even then, we get off so easy compared to most places. Snow is huge news here. Tornadoes? Stop the presses! Wind at Hurricane Cat 1 (or less)? OMG. End of the world. Polar Vortex? Whats that???<br /><br />Other regions of the country? Yah its just Wednesday. Schools delayed an hour maybe. Please do not poke the bear on this.<br /><br />The PNW is Mediterranean but its not a desert so please respect others wanting to see some spice in the weather dept. Endless sun is a desert. Deserts do not have to even be scorching hot. Refer to the Gobi if need be. If that is what you want, please look up the climate of Northern China. <br /><br />Also, half or more of "property damage" are people building in risky areas. They can't say they did not know the risks. If Rainier ever wakes up, well... the lahar routes can be seen on Google maps. Just as an example.

Typically the jet stream and other forces moves it eastward within 7 to 10 days (except in July and August). The presence of the high pressure that has pushed the wet weather south seems just descriptive. hopeandhackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15123176361341884319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-70424965821322298642019-12-06T13:01:34.599-08:002019-12-06T13:01:34.599-08:00It's 52 and sunny where I live (SJC), and I...It's 52 and sunny where I live (SJC), and I'm about ready to pack it in. I loathe this tepid-bathwater weather. I white-knuckle it through miserable summer (nonstop sun is, for me, a lot like having a blonde cheerleader following you around and screaming in your face constantly), only to end up with this. If I wanted this horrible, constant sun I would've stayed in SoCal (I HATED SoCal). This weather is starting to feel downright vindictive. A cloudy, chilly day is balm to my soul.
