It's 60f outside today... That's just weird. Gonna be in the low 20s tomorrow
Really hoping that we'll get snow before Christmas
@JourneymanGeek I had to refresh my logic gate knowledge, but a xor-easter is probably more likely than an nor-easter, since a nor-easter has only one chance of outputting true (0,0), while a a xor-easter has two chances (1,0)(0,1)
@sphennings Why I'm glad I don't live somewhere with hurricanes. Though apparently there are 20 foot waves on the great lakes from the wind storm we're having, which is apparently getting somewhat close to ocean storm heights...
@AndyD273 It's rare that storms are still classified as hurricanes when they hit New England but it's increasingly common that they're still going fast enough to classify.
I dunno, I think you should petition the NOAA or whoever to keep the classification. What's the point about going through a bad storm if you can't brag about it? "We had a hurricane last night" sounds a lot cooler than "We had a big storm last night".
Once a storm looses enough energy it get's reclassified as a tropical storm, which are still powerful enough wash out roads and cause power outages. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…
