40/70 Benchmark

Picked up .02" here.

..Of course, December is pending, and given that December 2006 was one of the worst in history, I think that will ultimately tip the scales.

I think the first calendar year that could even potentially challenge 2022 for how boring it has been is 2006. Although, I would have to give the edge to 2022 because the former had the Feb snowstorm, and the epic May floods. This year had the blizzard that was only severe across the se third of the region, and a drought. Both had lame tropical seasons... I give the excitement edge to 2006.

99-00 is a decent analog, only issue is I think la nina will be weaker.

Didn't seem as though you were privy.

Well, two years ago was fresh on the heels of covid....so it probably wasn't that bad.

Good idea.

Yea, I guess it was fine to do once, just to say I have....but lots of inconvenience, which I don't tolerate as well as I did when I was younger. Thankfully, that was back in my drinking days.

Go and leave early...traffic was brutal....it just wasn't worth it to me.

You guys did okay in 2013-2014 and 1999-2000, correct?

I think the high degree of variance with respect to snowfall makes it fun. Obviously a lot of luck involved, but it's not like there isn't with respect to fantasy sports, as well, and that doesn't stop people.

It's a weather forum.

Ding, ding, ding.....

I went to Salem once on Halloween like 15 or 20 years ago...never again.

Watching the Pats' offense is like watching the tropics this year.

Grab a 40oz and go

It looks just like you...all that's missing is a Hartford Wolfpack hoodie

Why does it look like @weatherwizis on the sideline coaching the Dolphins?

Not necessarily.

I think it will be generally mild through most of October, but as we have been acknowledging, that doesn't mean 90.

Oh, NHEM, maybe.....I was thinking ATL.

I don't think ACE has been lower recently....without the numbers in front of me, so maybe I am speaking out of my rear, but I don't believe that to be the case. It's been a pretty damn active 25 years or so. The talk about attributing climate change to one very quiet season is absurd...I mean, theoretically speaking...yes, viable theory..but it's one year. I love how when we get crushed with snow, we await regression like clockwork, but when the 150+ ACE season assembly line finally takes a breather, it must be climate change...what happened to simple regression? Does Mr. Regression not like the tropics? Lol

There are circles of people who attribute everything and anything at all to climate change...we finally have one season that fails to meet hyper activity criteria, and out come the conspiracy theories about mother nature. Holy $hit, stab my eyes out with a fork and Hadley me to death.

Max would drown out the effect of climate change a bit...good alternative if you dnt want to use the 1951-2010 climo set.

Right...just saying, is it better to use temps, or daily maxes...I have traditionally used temps...
