    Even during the first shutdown....there were people making more than they did when they worked. That is a fact and a problematic one at that.

    February 2017 may have been decent....but yea. #makefebruarygreatagain

    I agree 100%. I realize that I will get bashed for this, but if it comes down to needing to destroy the economy in order to save the most vulnerable, then I think I would rather see a survival of the fittest and most mindful element come into play.

    That is the most favorable climo time of the year for big snows....like Feb 5-10. Obviously for cold, its 10 days to 2 weeks earlier.

    Let me clarify....if you want to argue that the US opened too soon, I'm not sure that I would disagree. But I think closing the economy again for over a month would do more harm than good. I get it...my own mother is vulnerable, but I can't justify risking a depression when she can just remain quarantined, which she essentially has done. Not to mention the psychological impact on people....especially children, since the whole educational institution is such a catalyst for social development.

    Of course it is. And I am not trying to speak in absolutes. I have learned my lesson on that. Obviously odds of a ratter increase when you see something like that in November, but I still feel okay. If its still there as we approach xmas, then I'll be very concerned.

    So sorry, guys.
  8. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes.

    Having intervals like that this season is expected. I just don't think it sits there for 4 months like 2012.
  10. 40/70 Benchmark
    Lot's of people aren't okay with ruining the economy due to a .01% mortality rate. The vulnerable should quarantine.

    Please excuse my ignorance, but what is FIL?
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    Some of us don't have nearly as far to regress as others.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    Gotcha.
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    That storm remains the largest sleet event that I have ever seen...not close.
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    Despite losing climo, I feel like you have more margin for error with respect to scoring in an unfavorable pattern in March due to the changing wavelengths. All it takes is one well placed bowling ball....

    That was 2007...and it was NNE and NYS. Areas north of the pike and beyond rt 128 in SNE had about 6-8" of snow and sleet.

    He bases his thoughts for the entire winter on the PV, which is a flawed methodology. PV is strong.....yes. No one expects much blocking this season, but that doesn't necessarily mean winter cancel. He also gets too carried away when guidance wanes on PV intensity because it's not the only factor.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    His area looks very good given prognostications.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I think the one great storm is more of an el nino phenomenon.

    I didn't get that vibe at all. He was forecasting a good January.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    I was doing me....you quoted and replied to me. Since he had average seasonal snowfall south of the pike, I assumed he wasn't forecasting a 60" January for N CT again.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    You have a very strange obsession with that season. His outlook was not similar to that season at all, except for January being the most wintery month.
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    I agree. This is why I had higher snowfalls than most for the mid atl.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    I am pretty pleased with Isotherm-Tom's outlook..........especially north of the pike. Tough sledding for the higher elevations south of the pike....I will be sure to take pics for them. Glad we don't live there.
