Monday, November 5, 2012 2:39 P.M. Let me first start out by saying that this storm will be nowhere near as strong as Sandy. I was looking at some of the statistics from Sandy… 185 fatalities and at least 52.4 billion dollars in damage (the second costliest hurricane in the history of the U.S.), and […]
Climate Change and the Election
Sunday, November 4, 2012 ~12:00 P.M. This election season has been pretty intense from both sides. I’ve seen some outrageous, unsupported claims on Facebook from people in support of both Obama and Romney, although I have to admit, I’ve seen more ridiculous posts in support of Romney. I’ve honestly gotten to the point where I […]
The Official 2012-13 Winter Outlook!
Thursday, November 1, 2012 9:00 P.M. I am extremely excited to announce the release of WeatherOn’s Official 2012-13 Winter Outlook! I worked extremely hard on writing this outlook, and Tanner did an OUTSTANDING job creating some wonderful graphics to complement my writing and formatting the whole thing for his website. Please check it out, and […]
A Record-Breaking Storm
Monday, October 29, 2012 3:06 P.M. 19 years old, and Spongebob is still my favorite cartoon. It seems like everywhere I go, people are talking about Hurricane Sandy. Most of what I’m seeing are Facebook posts from people on the West Coast praying for the health and safety of those affected by this massive storm. […]
The “Frankenstorm” of 2012
Friday, October 26, 2012 2:51 P.M. Hi everybody. I just finished a hectic week. Two midterms. A ton of homework. I even finished an entire package of Omega-Three gummy bears from Costco. Maybe it’s a stress thing. But honestly, the thing that made this week the most hectic, was this. This, my friends, is a […]
Sequim: Is It Really That Sunny?
Friday, October 19, 2012 11:03 A.M. Happy Friday everyone!!! Everybody talks about the Sequim rain shadow is the driest place in Western Washington, and for good reason. It is. They only get around 16 inches of rain each year, as they are northeast of the Olympics, and since the winter flow is generally from the […]
A Well-Defined Front
Thursday, October 18, 2012 6:52 P.M. I just got done with a physics midterm, my first midterm of the autumn 2012 quarter! It went decently well, although there was one question involving a inclined plane, two weighted objects, tension, kinetic friction, and a whole bunch of gnarly stuff where I was supposed to find the […]
Cold in the Extended?
Monday, October 15, 2012 10:42 A.M. Folks, let me just start out by saying that the Seahawks game yesterday was incredible. Especially since I would have lost all my hair had the Hawks come up short to the Patriots via a bet with a New Englander. Now, normally, I wouldn’t care about losing my hair […]
Terrible Tempest the Twelfth
October 12, 2012 4:18 P.M. As promised, I’ll give you guys a brief overview of the Columbus Day Storm of 1962 since it has been 50 years since it happened. Unfortunately, I had a seizure before the presentation and was still in the ER when the presentation started. Trust me, I tried to convince those […]
I Am Actually Looking At Weather Models
Thursday, October 11, 2012 2:52 P.M. I’m a weather fanatic, and most of you know that. But during the last 80 days, I’ve been out of touch with my meteorological side. Back in September, if you asked me what the weather was going to be a week from now, I would have no clue. All […]
