Spring Has Arrived

[FDWxMan]

Well it's the first day of Spring today. Enjoy your damn snow.

For those of you that are still slaves to the astronomical seasons, the responsibility for this snow lies at your feet.

If you all would just accept the meteorological calendar, none of this storm nonsense ever would have happened.

Spring has Sprung! Hey, Wait a Second...

Ummm, you are a weather guy right? Spring starts on the 20th at sunrise.

Nope. Today.

You crazy astronomers need to give it a rest!

Let me google that for you

Well, heck, since it's open to interpretation, I declare the first day of Spring to be tomorrow! I like the idea of the first Saturday of March being the first day of Spring, so I'm going with it! The Clonefanium Calendar is soon to follow.

Seriously though, for me, I like the Astronomical version better. I like incorporating the tilt of the earth in relation to the sun, plus, fall doesn't come as early then, So my birthday is still in Summer!

 

[ZJohnson]

I don't know about you guys but 77* feels like Spring to me! Sucks to be you Northerners.

 

[FDWxMan]

Let me google that for you

Not everything you read on the googles is true. :wink:

Spring starts March 1.

 

[carvers4math]

I'm sure it is spring on some planet.

Flat Earther!

Yeah ones that tilt differently than the Earth.

Warmest 25% of the year is summer. Coldest 25% is winter. Done.

You guys and your crazy zodiac witchcraft.

 

[FDWxMan]

Cause we all think of the nice autumn, fall afternoons in December. :twitcy:

The Groundhog was wrong?

Hey I was born in the fall on December 19th. The temperature was below 0 but damnit it was fall!

Am I the only one who agrees? It makes much, much more sense to classify by temperature.

Yes, because classifying season by temp is wrong, seasons are when the earths orbit crosses 4 points. We are still 20 days from spring.

One way actually mirrors impacts the "seasons" have on earth and the life on it.

The other impacts telescopes.

Most associate "seasons" with the typical weather. Very few think of the seasons by constellation placement.

Gotta agree with this.

When someone says 'i cant wait for summer', theyre not looking forward to that particular tilt of the earth. Theyre looking forward to summer weather.

Not this guy! Summer is all about the tilt. Lots and lots of bouncing tilts.

Can we classify by annual variations in the percentage of men that have full beards?
