The last time the state tried to teach me the Hula in this fashion was 22 years ago. Fortunately, Hula lessons are few and far between but snow storms are nearly an annual event in CT and blizzards happen on average once every 5 or 6 years.Beyond wrote:It got up to a whopping 45'-F in the quiet corner of CT. today. Snows been slowly melting for 3-days now. The freezer is becoming more refridgerator like, finally. Maybe now the roofs will stop collapsing.
Hey BMAONE23, California is a good place to learn the Hula. All you gotta do is put on a grass skirt and wait for the next earthquake![]()

Snowfall totals topped 20 inches in parts of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Arkansas, just one week after a Groundhog Day storm coated the region with several inches. Meanwhile, temperatures dropped into the single digits in the American Plains and in Colorado. The storms moved east to dump more snow, ice, and rain in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and the Carolinas.

they should have got themselves killed in summer.
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite captured this clear view of the nation's mid-section at 1:25 Central Standard Time on February 10, 2011. Nearly all of the white in this image is snow and ice, except for a bit of clouds in the lower right (southeast) corner. In the larger image file, the outlines of the Ouachita and Ozark mountain ranges darken the snowy landscape, while river valleys such as the Mississippi appear brighter due to fewer trees. Gray-white areas are often developed, urban landscapes that have been coated by snow; some, however, are just rural areas that received less snow.
Tulsa, Oklahoma, received 5.5 inches of snow on February 9, bringing its total to 20.9 inches for the winter, the snowiest on record. In Oklahoma City, 6 inches fell as well, making February 2011 the second snowiest month (18 inches so far) in the state's records, behind March 1911 (20.7 inches). News outlets reported collapsed roofs on a number of public and private buildings and the state Health Department reported 80 storm-related injuries.
Between 12 to 17 inches of new snow fell in eastern and south central Kansas, and it has snowed as much this February as it usually does for an entire winter.>>

Chris Peterson wrote:It doesn't mean much. "Color" is a physiological concept, not a physical one. One factor in defining color is brightness. If you look at a bright OIII source, such as a reference lamp in a lab, you'll see a brilliant green color, which many might consider similar to how emeralds look. If you look at a bright OIII source through a telescope, and you have good eyes, you'll see a pale gray-green color. If you have bad eyes, you might see something like bright green- this would be symptomatic of a type of color blindness. As you look at dimmer OIII sources, you'll quickly reach the point where you only perceive shades of gray.Ann wrote:It is not clear what "emerald green" really means.
