In a 12 team CFP wouldn’t this have been game week? Would be curious how a southern school would handle this weather.
Bomb Cyclone
- Thread starter Bkmtnittany1
- Start date
To much shrinkage here to be blown!We had the temperature drop here in NEW. JERSEY., but no snow. The roads are dry (and salted). It’s very windy. I went out to Starbucks an hour ago and got blown.
If I were starting a rock band today, I would call the band Bomb Cyclone.
She was palatable, her husband was a stiff. We no longer get Channel 16. I miss the comedy of Talkback.
Word was the Clark’s liked to Hit the sauce.
this Elliott storm is something else - how is everyone doing with power?
large power outages have to be tragic. looks like a lot of outages in Texas. They seem to have a lot of issues in their grid.
Buffalo looks like a war zone. have to pray for them, as you have to imagine some deaths there.

None of this is true, however.
But I hope it made you feel better.
We can have an "arctic blast" without a bomb cyclone (and vice versa). This just happens to be an arctic blast that finally met the definition of a bomb cyclone (a certain amount of air pressure drop in a 24 hour period). They aren't interchangeable terms. And, is a "bomb" that much more frightening than referring to something as a "blast"? Regardless, cyclones are any kind of storm. Hurricanes are cyclones. So are tropical depressions, and basic thunderstorms. Yes, "hurricanes," "typhoons" and "tropical cyclones" (not just "cyclones") are fairly interchangeable (they're all actually tropical cyclones, some of which are given different names), and are used based on where they're located (though "tropical cyclone" is used regardless of severity of the storm, unlike "hurricane" and "typhoon,") but "cyclone" is a much broader term for all types of storms.
Power back on. Yay! Lucky to be out of the house for most of it. Looks like a generator might be in order…
Digital electric with chips is what works best with my schedule at this moment. It's weather proof as well.Is your new smoker gas, pellet or electric? A great gift
Please do research on that before you spend a **** ton of money. I know you will.
Yeah, we lose power a lot where I live - lots of very old, tall trees - so, I hear our neighbor’s generator running and get jealous. Won’t do anything before consulting the TMB first
.As an aside, we have several tall, white pines looming ominously adjacent to our house. If they fall, they will fall right on my bedroom. Wife is very nervous about this especially since water sometimes ponds by their base as it drains. The two trees that have fallen on/near our property in the past two years just fell over - roots and all. I think they’re waterlogged as drainage water really sits during big storms. Thinking of calling an arborist to determine the health of the trees since it’s nicer to have them, but have no issue with cutting them down if need be. Anyone have any experience with this? Considerations I might be missing (outside of any county regulations)? Arborists worth it? If you had trees trimmed or removed - why?
TIA.
I'm not going to get into trees as I deal with your roots deal at work a few times a year and it's brutal and that's a different story.Yeah, we lose power a lot where I live - lots of very old, tall trees - so, I hear our neighbor’s generator running and get jealous.

I have friends that have whole house generators and a sister that really could use one but with solar and lithium I wouldn't invest into anything fossil fuel related on that front unless you're 12 hours plus without. Just my opinion.

It’s been epic lately as they are doing construction on their new set and they are in a temporary set. The comments about lighting etc are hysterical.
Noreen showing Joe Snedecker how many inches she got in the backyard!
If those trees are a danger to power lines, you can sometimes get the power company to take them down…at least we could where I used to live.Yeah, we lose power a lot where I live - lots of very old, tall trees - so, I hear our neighbor’s generator running and get jealous.

You mean something like this??? The thing I know is arborists taking trees out etc is on your dime. This all was on State Farm’s. They didn’t hassle us about anything. We were out of the house from March until Dec. but we had all new stuff
Ignore the dive pic I don’t know how to remove. I’ve tried

We had dinner in Springfield, MA last night and the weather was fine. An hour later we were driving home on I91 and hit a total whiteout just 20 miles north. Had to get off the highway and switched to 4wd for the next 15 miles or so, then drove right out of it again. Weird.
Northcentral OH, Thursday night, midnight, 42 degrees
11:00 a.m. Friday, -10 degrees, howling wind up to 45 mph here, drifting snow everywhere. This snow is hard packed, a mix of ice and snow, like concrete but yet it seems to drift, a bad combo.
Had to go to the ER this morning, -3 degrees but we warmed up to -2 degrees, a heat wave.

Don’t know if you caught the “new guy”, Jeremy, this AM? Wow, all white “fancy boy” outfit and fumbling to get a cogent sentence out. Can’t wait to hear the Talkback on this one!A few years back, he cut me off with the station's car on 81 and I pulled up next to him and he was laughing at me. It's a running joke with my friends and family. I tried to get on Talkback about it with my best heynah impersonation but they didn't air it.
