    Over and out-
  2. 40/70 Benchmark
    That is a Modoki La Nina and a 7th consecutive shitty winter here in all likelihood.
  3. 40/70 Benchmark
    Not so much the MJO, but more what is biasing it west.

    I just want a warm March at this point....honestly. Aside from a rogue bowling ball and assuming 2/24 doesn't work out, its over... and Steve can quote that and hang it on his wall in the doggie kennel.

    It's just a shit Pacific period...shame on me for misinterpreting that (again) and thinking we could still have a decent winter. I was wrong. But it's not because of the El Nino...people saying that are also wrong.
  6. 40/70 Benchmark
    Plenty of strong El Ninos were decent, but unfortunately this wasn't one of them. Over the past several years it really hasn't mattered what ENSO has done because the extra tropical Pacific has sucked. Anyone who has a clue knows this wasn't a prototypical super El Nino with a huge GOA low...its sucked because we can't shake the west PAC warm pool that continues to favor Maritime forcing, regardless of ENSO.

    30"
  8. 40/70 Benchmark
    I can't believe this is my worst winter since 2012...I need 10.5" to catch last year and I am doubting it.

    Yea, I won't be suprised at all if it just fails...intimated as much and got the 3rd degree for it.
  11. 40/70 Benchmark
    The issue isn't whether it's coming so much as whether it's down the drain.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    Probably right.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    That is like you to the Lip N Hips song..just replace the snow with doogies.
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    2019-2020 was technically neutral and 2020-2021 wasn't that snowy in New England.

    I'm just frustrated...its difficult because this place serves two purposes for me....an outlet to think and speak freely with emotion, as well as a place to disseminate forecast info and sometimes the two get get obfuscated. That is part or my motivation for the blog....to distinguish the two.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes, great week there. I'm glad because you guys have been boned past two seasons.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    My exact verbiage was "sneaking suspicion"....the implication is, I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case and the fact is that I won't...I honestly don't think most here would. No personal attack; just an observation and you can do with it what you would like. Feel free to question my work this year because once again, there is plenty to question.....with respect to the actual work.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    Even 12z in a more ambiguous manner.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I wonder if what is or is not happening next week is trying to focus more on that weekend, as opposed to much of anything on Friday....some hints of that.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    I expressed frustration over a terrible season and guidance not reflecting much in the future. But I added the 24th in November. You have been increasingly contentious ever since being forced into retirement a few years back. Hopefully you find what you need to fill that void if the dogs aren't enough structure, but project it elsewhere.
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    Is there something wrong with issuing a seasonal forecast and then conveying doubt when it's clear that said forecast isn't working out as expected? I don't understand why that invalidates said effort. I'm sorry, dude...I don't feel a blizzard is a lock next week. But if it works out, it sure would help my seasonal outlook.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    I put it out there and expect some shit on what I put out there...not some alternate outcome derived from your perception of my emotions. One is objective....one subjective. Figure that out, buttercup.

    He never goes on record himself...he just likes to cherry pick quotes out of the open stream of consciousness that is a weather forum to try to twist the thoughts of those that do. I remember he made some effort with the "Ginxy Gale" stuff several years back, but gave it up to shovel doggie doo when the going got tough. More time to pass judgement, now I guess.
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    I not being disingenuous about anything. All of my thoughts are on record; I'm sorry you can't seem to wrap your mind around that, but that is your problem, not mine.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    My hopes are pretty low...I have one foot in the draft room.
