Compared to the excess CO2 emitted by encouraging driving in urban areas by giving them right of way over pedestrians? Pretty much zero.

Thanks! Essentially - although I'm getting the ferry from the Netherlands (near Rotterdam) to the UK (Essex)! The Eurostar essentially doesn't allow non-folded bikes, plus it's a 1.5 day trip and the overnight ferry with a cabin is more economic than a hotel somewhere :)

FYI - power is out at the David Skaggs Research Center today, which is where GSL, PSL, and NWS Boulder are located.

I think this issue is what leads to AI forecasts being billed as a replacement for NWP in some circles, as it's seen as something more advanced and sophisticated, whereas I think it's better seen as something that will supplement NWP for forecasting.
