for antagonizing the snow loving citizens there? 
No offence Nito. I'm just razzing you. I value your knowledge. I'm sure most feel the same here
Edit: just not sure of your warm bias
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++

If it were a tropical system, it would be a category 2 hurricane.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Re: January 2020 Forecasts and Discussions
Holy crap. I was in a typhoon once in HK but it was only Cat 1 and I thought it was something fierce. This is insane especially for an extratropical system.

Re: January 2020 Forecasts and Discussions
What does that mean? Looks pretty normal to me..typical Wetcoast storm, but with snow and wind this time
Which is typical anyways..

I was in PEI during Dorian last September and there was a decent amount of damage from that one, mostly along the north shore.
