They did and they have failed to keep up the business. Pep boys had a big following here, people would just about let them rebuild their cars and trucks. Not so much any more.

Here we go again. Another "atmospheric river" driving California crazy. Supposed to be a week of rain for us. It's all I hear about when I turn on the news.

When did this "atmospheric river" terminology become the new popular buzz word?
So how did that Atmospheric River pushing the Cyclone Bomb pan out???

A doozy. Reports before hand where saying multiple inches. Some places where supposed to get 8-10". Which if it did would cause so much flooding here California would be forced to declare a state of emergency. But I think we here in the Sacramento area probably only got maybe an inch and a half on the worst day. Most days where just light rain or sprinkle.

Really, it didn't look any different then any other rain we get throughout the winter. New stations where on a 24 hr blast about the amount of rain we where going to get. How to stay safe and don't drive if you don't have to. Potential flooding, etc. now that it's nearly over. Silence.

I had a strong suspension it would be like that. I was in MISSISSIPPI last week and people were discussing it like it was a major thing.
So when they asked me about it I was like oh yeah sounds like it going to sprinkle and we might get dusting of snow in the local mountains.

That's the big new thing. Over dramatized weather for click and views. Everything's a bomb cyclone or something to make it seem like a big deal so people pay attention when it's really just the same old shit.

Every time the weather gets cold here in Texas we gotta know how many days it's been since we had the big freeze in 2021 and will this be the next one. Tune in at 9 or check the App for the story.....

Michigan is on list of places I'm watching to buy raw rural land to homestead, and yeah politics of the state play a part in it.
I'd love to do Alaska, but getting my stuff up there isn't really feasible, especially some stuff that's not friendly in Canada mainly SHTF related stuff
Have you looked into Arkansas? I've known quite a few texans that retire there. It's a beautiful state with nice people and lots of rural areas. The winters aren't too bad and it's not as hot as Texas in the summer.

But aren't the mosquitos as big as birds? And as numerous as tree leaves?

It’s all just to sell advertising. You ever watch the documentary on social media?

It’s climate change, get your narratives right. 🤣
It's all the same narrative Spun by the People that profit from it all while they fly on there Private Jets and Motor Pools that wait out side idling...

Same with the DEF Fluid...

Isn't interesting that all the Independent studies from 3rd parties on the Grey Soot have virtually been scrubbed off the internet??? Try and find a 3rd party independent study Prior to 2021 on the grey soot produced from the after treatment.
