    It's almost like there was a concerted effort during the first wave to act like there was nothing wrong at all, or something. 

    It's almost like the federal government acted in a manner to prevent a Panic-demic on top of a pandemic...  histrionics are well preserved even here

    They suck and they’ve always sucked other than some glory years under Connie Mack and when Gene Tenace was catching Hunter\Blue\Holtzman.

    Just because they took a series 2-1 early in the season from us doesn’t mean “Hey they’re not bad. Watch out the catcher hitting a buck ninety might have another career night!”

    Take the loss.

    What a pathetic hill to die on.  Yes they’ve been terrible for a while.   No they’re not utterly terrible right now and they have one of the most exciting players in baseball right now in their closer Miller.   Way to get your dick tucked in your ass over a nothing.  Perhaps go remove your dick from your ass, sit on your thumb, and rotate.

    So, some friends brought these over last week…and they’re maybe the best store bought tortilla chips I’ve ever had. Super crunchy, but not hard/tough, and a perfect saltiness. My wife and I are both sold - these will be our go-to chip going forward.

    I appreciate your ruining my 'had been working' diet.  Bag 3 in week 2.

    valid points. The lakes and rivers on the eastern side of Texas have the capability to bounce back much faster when droughts occur. Some of the western and southwestern might be unlikely to recover.

    They will at some point...when the flood hits.  W and SW Texas, as most arid regions, exists in a constant cycle of drought and flood.

    Not an expert but it's not difficult to identify a trend on this page. The second chart is interesting in that we're always a decent percent off statewide total capacity of the lakes so let's hope that many of the problems of the last decade are not the norm.

    I mean, it's kind of a climatological/topographic reality

    I have zero doubt that tornado was an EF-4 at least. Debris going 30k into the air indicates an incredibly powerful storm. It may end up being borderline EF-5 damage at some places along the tornado’s path. 

    They got real lucky that first storm the chopper was covering didn't fully develop a massive meso-tornado.  The ground crew was measuring 70+mph sustained inflow winds flowing into the notch.  That's absolutely incredible.  Could have had a full scale meso-cyclone reach the ground nearly 2 miles wide if it had accomplished what it was trying to do.

    The prof who we believed was the CIA recruiter was known as the “intergalactic diplomat”. I interviewed with them and didn’t get far as it was too weird or I was too stoned. I interviewed with state and with navy intelligence. That was my big mistake. They would pay for my ma and PhD thru Georgetown, plus I’d go in as a lt JG. Teach at the war college and retire an admiral. The stupidity of youth. Shit man I’ll have to cut my hair and quit weed.

    I interviewed with the NSA.  Got all the way to the point that I was one of the last ones not selected  (they took 5 for the position I applied for with PhD's, I only had my BA at the time).  Went and did the 5 day interview process at one of their off sites not far from Langley actually.  That was an interesting few days.

    Good eye. Last night, the Tulsa weather guys clocked wind speeds that would likely indicate an EF4 when all was said and done. Just a devastating situation for a community that doesn't look like it had much to begin with. I can only imagine the shock they're going through right now and the heartbreak they'll feel over the long haul.

    Just putting my college courses to work that actually interest me.  I remember having to study photos of storm damage and estimate wind speeds from tornados based on destruction.

    Of course, making predictions so early in the year is not scientifically accurate. As our meteorologists will tell you, accurately forecasting out more than seven days ahead is incredibly difficult. Last year, the team predicted anywhere from 33 to 44 days of triple-digit heat, but Austin ended up with 80.

    This year, the team is predicting a well-above-average year when it comes to 100° days. Austin averages 29 days at or above 100° in a typical year. Here’s what the team is predicting for 2024:

    I Predict it's lower than their collective set.

    I'm assuming they'll be able to bleed it down over time by releasing waters downstream?  How long might that take?  And do they generate hydroelectric from the Waco dam?

     

    They're kind of having to wait on the waters to recede a bit downstream.  No hydroelectric on the dam for some reason.  I know yesterday both the middle and upper Bosque were flowing 100k cfs into the lake.  It was rising over 1 foot per hour for a bit.

    Tomball with 11 inches in the past 24 hrs

    We got another  2+ inches from the storm that hit right around 12:00-1:45am last night.   Absolutely crazy lightning involved in that storm.  Damn near scary how much there was.  Puts us at over 10 inches since Saturday.   

     

    Lake Waco is actually 5 feet high right now.
