Fuckity fuckity fuck.

I saw the sketchy websites last night, but didn't include them for the very reasons listed on snopes. Like I said, I don't read Daily Kos, mostly because it's more hyperbole than facts. But just because I don't like it doesn't mean it lacks some credibility, which is why I linked the story.

It stopped here for an hour. I thought it was done. Then I looked at live radar and saw we were in a clearing in the middle of the storm. Now, it's back and snowing more than ever.

I hope Bob lives through this.

It isn't that bad but I guarantee people will be freaking out enough to make my mile six mile commute home on surface streets take an hour.

Yep, those bad drivers on dry pavement get way worse in these wx conditions.

Interesting it says "mostly false".

The CO emission thing is a hypothesis. Neither proven or unproven. Same as the lipid hypothesis...which doctors, pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, and the food industry have been using to scare consumers out of dollars for decades.

Personally, I think the CO/earthquake link has a higher probability of being true.

And California......the reality is the country might be better for it. Especially if it's the big one out west that takes out those freaks in WA/OR too.

I'm okay with losing CA, but there's just too much natural beauty in the PNW for me to want to see it go. I'll just have to hope The Big One carves out the West Coast the way legislators carve out congressional districts.

So, my wife's best friend got a job offer she couldn't refuse to work at UC Berkeley. Or one of the CA universities. Her husband is a huge right wing conservative guy. Before the move he's posting on friendspace about how he's going to hate it and its so liberal and the policies and blah blah blah. Now all he can talk about is how great CA is.

Risk of big earthquake on San Andreas fault rises after quake swarm at Salton Sea

The San Andreas fault’s southernmost stretch has not ruptured since about 1680 — more than 330 years ago, scientists estimate. And a big earthquake happens on average in this area once every 150 or 200 years, so experts think the region is long overdue for a major quake.

The swarm actually increased the likelihood of a much more major quake in Southern California, at least temporarily.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, for the seven-day period following Tuesday, the chances of a magnitude-7 or greater earthquake being triggered on the southern San Andreas fault are as high as 1 in 100 and as low as 1 in 3,000. The chances diminish over time.

Experts said it’s important to understand that the chance of the swarm triggering a big one, while small, was real.

“This is close enough to be in that worry zone,” seismologist Lucy Jones said of the location of the earthquake swarm. “It’s a part of California that the seismologists all watch.”

This thread is great because "the big one" is just like jesus' return. If you keep saying it's right around the corner, eventually you'll be right.

except jesus is never returning, guys.

but the big one will maybe happen someday. Or maybe it'll be a series of littler ones. nobody knows.
