  • This is REALLY bad. I’m a massive weather nerd, and I can say with high levels of certainty that both Canadian radars, and the ECCC data platforms are horrible.

    And given that severe weather is only increasing, its only a matter of time before people die because of the lack of funding, and early detection.

    I want to make it clear: our forecasts being terrible has nothing to do with the people making them. If you give them shit data, they can’t make strong predictions. Garbage in, garbage out. Give them the tools they need to do their fucking job.

    I’ll get off my soapbox now.







  • I invested in some rechargeable NiMH AAs, and AAAs. Now sometimes I think i prefer some things with old school batteries just because of how convenient it is. Granted, that system wouldn’t work well for my headphones, or my phone. But seems just fine for the odd remote control, kitchen gadget or portable lamp.
