Even virga blanks Raleigh lol

Back isn’t broken but it’s Larry Bird laying on his stomach on the parquet with a towel.

I honestly had to look up who the person was. Was all over the media as if everyone knew who she is.

It hasn’t been talked about, but we’ve had stein for awhile. Yes we had that big storm that had significant QPF but Steiny overall. Seems like maybe we can break that later this month. I hope anyways.

Yeah hard to get CAA below 0F temps into SNE after mid February. But I honestly couldn’t care less about that crap….unless it’s really high end where records are threatened. I’ll take moderate temps with lots of chances over deep layer CAA and stein.

It’s like you were in my head and typing on my phone

BOS harbor 38. Not sure when the last time was they touched that.

Same happened to me. Ran out of oil. In my case my oil delivery guy did the bleed. It took about 2 minutes. I was going to do it. You tube video shows it . Not hard to do.

For the deep cold and feel I think we’re done. That’s what I meant. Threats look to return after any moderation.

Really no wind to speak of here.

Cold me now Warm my heart?

And that includes ensembles. Literally 2 cycles ago we had a ton of hits on ensembles for next week and most of them evaporate within a run or two. Conversely, we have seen some events come back after losing them (1/18-19 did…AI remained more enthused and was correct)

I know lol. Been a tough stretch for Torch Tiger.

If we’re really headed to a warm/rainy pattern, nothing I hate more than rain to dry cold. Let it really warm up then.

There’s this weird pendulum in here where one group tries to push “end of winter”, “back broken”, etc etc…and then another group that pushes deep winter until 4/1. Let’s just call it what it is…moderation on temps (Second half of February does this most years) but 90% of this forum only cares about snow…so what about snow? Well, next week maybe a light event mid-week and then the weekend remains in limbo. If model performance since late January is any indication, I wouldn’t feel comfortable about saying anything beyond D5-6 right now. It’s been really bad consistency.

People hate the thought of melting etc, especially when there is pack. I get it, but it is what it is.

He’s talking about the torch twins

Yeah and it’s been centered right where most of us like our winter…around the solar and climo min. So if March torches it’s just a big whatever.

Ha. you know ... I've often thought that the 21s date-designation for seasonal demarcation as a being humanity bullshit anyway. According to a mash up history lesson by NOAA and the Royal Met Society, The 21st is often recognized as a seasonal change date because it aligns closely with the astronomical events of the solstices and equinoxes, which are determined by Earth's position relative to the Sun. Specifically, the March equinox, marking the start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, typically occurs around March 20 or 21, while the September equinox marks the beginning of autumn around September 22 or 23. That bold is bullshit. Why? Because it doesn't account for the solar increasing irradiance that takes place before March 21. Nor does it account for the solar irradiance lost prior to the September 21. Both times in which there are notable increase vs decrease ( respectively) in the mean temperature (ie, seasonality), which are a direct response to the gain vs dimming caused by Earth's position relative to the Sun. Hello? So, I give these sources ( and the AI that did the mashing ...) a bit of a pass on this because they are after all having to describe this stuff to idiocracy - different discussion. However, in reality, winter should end, and spring should begin, on the date that the solar min ends. Spring ends, summer begins on the date the solar max begins. Summer should end and autumn begins when the max ends and -transition solar season starts... And on and so on throughout the calendar year. Nov 8 to ~ Feb 9 is winter. Solar min Feb 9 to ~ May 7th is spring. +Solar transition May 7 to ~ Aug 10th is summer. Solar max Aug 10 to ~ Nov 8 is autumn. -Solar transition That is more realistic and obeys/observes the physical constraints native to the celestial mechanics of our solar system.

Yup..great insulator for sure.

Yep, I am so ready to put this winter in the books. Looking forward to some nice warm temps.

Even in all rain events they’re low. Especially if wind is involved. At first I thought it was coincidence, but in the events where I’ve compared around, they are low when wind is involved. I’m sure when snow is involved it’s worse.

I still can’t believe my soil 8” down has stayed above freezing this whole winter. Deep pack ftw. Snow cover since 12/2.
