Talk:United States rainfall climatology

message: The beauty of this article, unvarnished with facts as it were (!), is that it can be made up-to-date with the addition of separate statistics for El Nino and La Nina, which most articles don't have. Dumbly comparing this years statistics to last is silly if the oscillation has switched. Student7 (talk) 16:36, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll have to remember that. Unvarnished with facts is a great phrase. hehehehe. The situation is being resolved. Thegreatdr (talk) 17:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Name change

message: The GA nomination is on hold for the following reasons:
* Hawaii and insular areas are not included.
**Have included some information for these areas, and will expand them out some more. Thegreatdr (talk) 19:38, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll address these concerns...thanks for the review. As for the "how much snow is equivalent to how much liquid precipitation" comment, that depends on the observer. Some places use a 10:1 ratio as a default (especially if it melts soon after impact), while others melt down the snow and figure the liquid equivalent that way. Automated stations may or may not have a heating tipping bucket rain guage. Even if they do, you lose up to 40% of snowfall/liquid equivalent if you depend solely on a heated tipping bucket, due to sublimation and drifting. Thegreatdr (talk) 17:16, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've done a lot today, and think I've mostly covered your concerns. Let me know what I've missed. Thegreatdr (talk) 00:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

text: It could be. The problem is, ENSO only correlates to rainfall across part of the US. Thegreatdr (talk) 01:49, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: GAN on hold

message: Since my conserns are/currently being addressed, I feel that this meets the criteria for being a GA now. Miss Madeline | Talk to Madeline 18:47, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: GA now

message: Would anyone mind if I rewrote the section on Great Plains rainfall? The explanations given for the dynamics and moisture transport are almost totally wrong. Raymond Arritt (talk) 04:43, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course you can...it's wikipedia. The first part of that paragraph was probably the only portion of the original article that survived the rewrite. As long as everything added is referenced, all is good. Thegreatdr (talk) 05:32, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, thanks. I might reference a couple of my own papers in the process. That's mildly discouraged, but I'll go ahead and if anyone objects they can replace them with other refs. Raymond Arritt (talk) 06:00, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have an issue with that. Within the tropical cyclone project, I end up having to reference the rainfall images I've created over the years in order to include rainfall data. Thegreatdr (talk) 06:04, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
