BRRRRRRR....

     It took a while longer than last year, but the hellish cold has returned with a vengeance. Good ol' Rex block is going to keep things stuck for a while. Here's hoping the late start doesn't mean an even later start to spring than last year. Not that we had a transitional season last year. I think we can say we went from winter, to 3 months of really weak summer (at least for the northeast) and on to fall.
     This semester, I'm taking field production. It's a class where we, as students, create news packages from the field, rather than a studio. Of course, I'm making a story about the return of icy/snowy hell for 2015. I will share the finished package here if possible. I'm also taking Earth Science as a gen ed. I'm enjoying it a great deal so far... but that's kind of expected from a nature-addict like myself. It's a pre req for meteorology, which I plan to take the next semester it's offered in.
     I really need to keep this updated better. To close, here's a little gag cartoon.

Another Year of Failure

2014 is another severe weather bust for me. The one week I had off for chasing was dominated by a gigantic ridge. I didn't even leave home. I think the biggest insult this year were the pair of tornadoes that touched down only one county away on my birthday. I was in bed sick the whole time. 2015 had better be spectacular. For now... back to school.

First Post

Just getting things started here. Don't really have much to say right now. I largely missed out on the 2013 storm chasing season due to moving. It's been a very storm free year for me so far. Temperatures are starting to cool now, and I'm beginning to see changes in the leaves. We've actually had a couple VERY early frost advisories here in PA. I'm accustomed to feeling these temperatures in late October. But this has been a very cold year overall.
