A Storm, and then Cold
Monday, January 7, 2013 10:13 A.M. It’s refreshing to finally have another decent storm roll through the area. As I have stated many times on this blog, I vehemently dislike boring winter weather. Today’s the first day of winter quarter at the UW, and weather-wise, it’s off to a stellar start. We’ll see about otherwise… […]
Global Warming: Science vs. Politics
Sunday, January 6, 2012 11:37 P.M. With so much talk about the fiscal cliff and a whole bunch of other stuff I don’t understand, I’ve been reading the newspaper and watching some news stations. And as I did this, I came across several articles on various aspects of climate change, particularly with policy-making in Washington. […]
White Christmas?
Sunday, December 23, 2012 10:46 P.M. First off, let me apologize for not being more punctual when it comes to posting on this blog. I had three pretty rough finals in two days, and the evening after my last final, I had a seizure (which may have been related to the stress… who knows), so […]
An Update!
Sunday, December 16, 2012 2:40 P.M. Hi everybody! It’s great to be back! I survived finals, although I sustained some serious injuries during the battle. Oh well, I’ll recover from them soon enough. We’ve got a lot to talk about. First off, we have a fairly large storm swinging through our area tonight. Take a […]

Little Storms
Monday, November 26, 2012 1:37 P.M. I was looking at the models this afternoon, and I noticed that there are a lot of little storms slated to hit our area later this week into next week. None of these storms look particularly strong. In some ways, they look kind of cute… in a nerdy meteorological […]
Storms!
Friday, November 16, 2012 8:50 A.M. I’m happy. You know why I’m happy? Because we will finally see a string of strong storms that will streak from ocean to peak through next week. Now that was clever. Let’s look at the timeline for our storms. Our first storm comes in on Saturday morning. This one […]
The Misrepresentation of Science in the Public Domain
Thursday, November 15, 2012 8:42 P.M. So, I was thinking a lot about global warming today (like I always do), but I was struck by one thought. When I hear people talk about global warming, there seems to be a debate, even among scientists. Richard Lindzen, Joe Bastardi, and even our own George Taylor (Oregon […]
Pattern Change
Tuesday, November 13, 2012 7:05 P.M. Hey everybody! I hope everybody had a nice Veteran’s Day weekend. I didn’t do much… besides sleeping of course. Funny story actually… I was going to bed last night (at my house) and our dog was already asleep on my bed. I tried to move him… but that guy […]
