One question. Where the hell are we going to get all the electricity to power all of these vehicles? California can't even completely power their current infrastructure reliably. I'm interested in seeing how the infrastructure to support all-electric develops as well. I love road trips and can't be...

May he find some peace now. He's definitely struggled throughout much of his life.

I appreciate the warning. I try to limit myself to what I feel confident speaking about -- and to ask questions when it feels like the conversation can be productive. My hope, is at least with atmospheric science, I can help address common misconceptions, so that they don't go unchecked. That said, ...

Outstanding insight; thank you for posting. I recall hearing recently that the GFS's equations recently (within the last year, let's say) received a major update. Is that correct, do you know? Thank you! I am not a model developer, nor am I actively participating in model development, so I can't sp...

The Euro model did not do a very good job with these past couple storms in our neck of the woods, IIRC. Correct. The Euro has had a poor handle on the current pattern lately. The GFS is actually doing a pretty decent job with verification. Here's a look at how the 0-144h 500 mb forecasts have panne...

The left has politicized meteorology to the point the models selected by these ham-and-eggers are based on Goreist ideas and not what they should have learned in class. To hell with them! I'll do better with my Farmer's Almanac and a look out the window. I own salt, shovels, and sweaters so whateve...

That said, serious reforms are needed in the Senate so that our First Branch of government can go back to legislating; a role they've long neglected. I agree. First step, undo the 17th amendment. That's an interesting point of view. I'm curious as to why you're opposed to direct elections of senato...

I'm okay with Biden undoing Trump's Executive Orders, as EOs are fair game for any President. However, I generally will not celebrate new EOs, even if I agree with the sentiment behind them. EOs inherently lack stability since any President can reverse them; and it's fundamentally unhealthy for our ...

All of a sudden Biden thinks travel bans are a good idea. President Joe Biden signed restrictions Monday on travel to the United States to mitigate Covid-19 transmission. The ban prevents most non-U.S. citizens from entry if they have recently been in South Africa, where a new strain of Covid-19 ha...

Toning down the divisiveness just on this board alone is a tall order! However, I'm not yet deterred still and hold out hope that we can carry out higher quality political conversations, as (at least sometimes) used to be the case here years ago. Would you care to share your prior account? This is ...

Thank you!

Trump's effort to "buy American" with federal tax dollars was one of the very few areas I found agreement with him. It's good to see Biden reaffirm that commitment, and hopefully goes further.
