Severe Thunderstorm Warning Hail Criteria Becomes More Meaningful 2009 Hurricane Season Summary Sea Fog: A Simple Tutorial NWS Ruskin Supports the American Cancer Society by Participating in Relay For Life NWS Ruskin Gives Back to the Community El Niño to Increase Possibility of Hazardous Weather in Florida this Winter NWS Ruskin to Host an Open House “Disponible en Español”...Spanish Services Keep on Growing SPECIAL FEATURE: January 2010 Cold Snap Severe Thunderstorm Warning Hail Criteria Becomes More Meaningful By: Daniel Noah Since January 5, 2010, Severe Thunderstorm Warnings across the nation are now issued for 1 inch or larger hail instead of the previous 3/4 inch or larger size hail. The wind criteria of 58 MPH (50 knots) did not change. Scientific research increasingly indicates that significant damage to real property does not occur until hail stones reach at least 1 inch in diameter. The results of these peer-reviewed articles are supported by damage reports from thousands of archived storm events. Many in the media and the emergency management community were concerned that too many Severe Thunderstorm Warnings were being issued for marginal events and these warnings were desensitizing the public. The new 1 inch criteria will reduce the number of Severe Thunderstorm Warnings each season and will warn for a genuine risk of damage and a corresponding need to take protective action. The 15 counties in west central and southwest Florida received 109 reports of 3/4 inch hail or larger over the past two years, and of these, only 35 hail reports were 1 inch or larger.

  • The Bullpen Is the New Starting Rotation
    The Bullpen is the New Starting Rotation A Look Into Modern Baseball Pitching Trends and the Tampa Bay Rays By Christian Wisniewski Common Man: Starting Pitching is still great, look! Expert: Congrats! You managed to pick the five best pitching staffs in the MLB, now what about everyone else? Common Man: …………………... Statistically, Starting Pitching is becoming weaker. (Not to this extreme) → Other reasons why: - MLB DL stints have gone up - Total number rose from 659 to 699 from 2017 to 2018. (Roster Resource) - Analytics have become more prevalent - Teams understand what happens to a pitchers numbers the more batters he faces. - The players today are better athletes then there were in the past - Fangraphs began tracking average fastball velocity in 2007 when there were 18 pitchers that pitched a 100+ innings who averaged 94+ MPH on their fastball, there were 32 Pitchers in 2018, almost double. - Bullpens are flexible compared to starting rotations - A manger can tailor his bullpen to be good against righties, be balanced, and can even have a pitcher whose main goal is to get out left-handed batters The 2018 Tampa Bay Rays and the “Opener” Origins - March 7th 2018: Manager Kevin Cash Announces the Four Man Rotation - “"We're going to try to stay at four…………..We're going to have some bullpen days in there.

  • Studies of the Active Spin Ratio 1
    Studies of the Active Spin Ratio 1 Charles Young 2 and Alan Nathan 3 University of Illinois at Urbana - Champaign 1. Introduction The concept of ``spin efficiency'' was first introduced in an article entitled All Spin Is Not Alike written by one of us several years ago, although those words were not actuall y used. The essential physics that forms the starting point of that article is that the components of spin perpendicular to the direction of motion (the ``active spin'' ω T ) result in movement, whereas the component parallel to the direction of motion (the non - active or “gyro” component ω G ) does not. Separation of the total spin ω into active and non - active components requires knowledge of the 3 - dimensional spin axis. Unfortunately, this quantity is not directly measured by Trackman, which was the pitch - t racking device used by Statcast during the 2015 - 2019 seasons. Nevertheless, it is still possible to determine the spin axis from Trackman, albeit indirectly and approximately, from an analysis of the measured trajectory and total spin. It was the developm ent of this technique that was the principal focus of the article. In the article, it was speculated that the ratio ε =ω T /ω might be a useful diagnostic for pitchers as they try to optimize the spin axis to achieve a particular desired effect. Subsequently this ratio was given the name ``spin efficiency''. We prefer not to use that nomenclature, since it might mislead people into thinking that a high spin efficiency is always desirable. Subsequent research by others has shown that that is not necessarily the case.

    800.275.2840 MORE NEWS» insideradio.com THE MOST TRUSTED NEWS IN RADIO THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17, 2015 Streaming Broadcasters Relieved By Royalty Break. Radio broadcasters who stream online will pay about one-third less in music royalties to SoundExchange starting in January, thanks to new rates issued by the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) late Wednesday. The new rate for commercial nonsubscription services, both broadcast and pureplay, in 2016 is $0.0017 per performance. That’s a substantial reduction from the $.0025 that most broadcast streamers had been paying but a 21% increase from the $.0014 that pureplay webcasters have been shelling out. Setting the same streaming rate for pureplays and broadcasters marks a new meet-in-the-middle rationalization in the market. The new rate for commercial subscription services in 2016 is $0.0022 per performance, down from $0.0025. Unlike the previous rate-setting, there is no annual step up in royalties. However, the CRB has, for the first time, built in a cost- of-living provision for the period 2017 through 2020 that will adjust the rate annually to reflect any increases or decreases in the Consumer Price Index. But there’s no so- called percentage override, which would have replaced the per-performance rate with a percentage of revenue payment when a webcaster reached a certain revenue threshold. “That’s one of the things that SoundExchange had asked for and broadcasters in particular had said would be very difficult to administer,” attorney David Oxenford tells Inside Radio. Hourly Waging—non-comm channels have their own new rate tied in to Aggregate Tuning Hours; read more at InsideRadio.com.
