CAPE

I mean, you couldn't be any closer. I am currently sipping a DFH WWS. Oh sooo good.

Not sure it would ever work out. One dude is very smart, but exists in an alternate reality, and the other is just dumb as a rock.

I'm good with bone dry. A late wet slop snowstorm wouldn't change my feelings about this winter. Given the the extremely favorable winter outlooks, the persistent epic LR pattern teases on the models, and the fact that every single event minimized/under-performed in my yard, makes this the worst winter in several years here. A late "save" would at best change the grade from a D---- to a D--. Complete suckage either way.

Very good actually. A buddy of mine who is a bit of a nomad and big into skiing, has been "living" near there the past 2 winters. He is basically between there and Mt Washington. That area does very well, even in very flawed events when places not too far S are mixing or raining. He also really enjoys the culture in that area.

Precip was light all afternoon here(as usual with these events this winter). Was mostly very light rain, then mixed with snow, now a steady snow falling, but still on the light side. Temp is 33 now and deck and grass has a decent coating.

Yeah and as suck ass as Nina winters generally are, flukes do happen. Pretty interesting that in early Jan of both 2017 and 18 there were big coastal snowstorms that crushed the immediate MA coast and had little to no impact NW of I-95. They were pretty similar in track and amounts, both produced 10-15" in the jack zone, difference being the 2018 storm was a legit blizzard, and of course it happened in a Nina year(bomb cyclone!). Both storms gave my yard a pedestrian 5-6", which is why I chased each one at the beach. Goes without saying I made an excellent decision both times.

I would love a solid month with highs in the low 50s-low 60s beginning this week. Once we get towards mid April, the occasional 70 would be ok.

But its cold. Until the SW flow brings in the milder air with the clouds. My call for this "event"- places that get under any 'heavier precip' may see a mulch whitening. If a heavier burst occurs later in the afternoon or evening, a few places might see a quarter inch or so. And now, back to sports talk.

I have thought about immersing a pump and pumping it into a ditch behind my property. I mean, it usually dries up by early summer anyway, so I would just be helping it along lol.

LOL. Don't think I haven't thought about it. It is a pretty large area. I would if I could, but when I bought the lot, I signed papers acknowledging the restrictions- meaning I cant do anything to change the ecology of that area. That includes digging it into a pond, draining it, etc. Plenty of cases around here where people have paid hefty fines and even done jail time for (knowingly) permanently draining protected wetlands. Serious shit. Certainly possible they would never find out- but they generally do monitor it.

They are here, all concerned about a temporary "wet spot" in the woods on my property. They(MDE) call it a 'non tidal wetland', and it's protected. I call it a perfect Spring mosquito breeding ground, and a hazard to human health. If only I had lots of money, I could make them/it go away, just like the land developers do when they want to build on top of actual tidal wetlands.

Yes. Light precip and marginal temps during the day in March almost always equates to "snowier". Tell us more about the barometric pressure leading in.

Good thing. Lookin' pretty serious.

Call Domino's.

I missed that lecture. Who was the professor?

I was being waggish.

Euro looks good!

RPM or Deep Thunder?

Well, it is defo weak sauce, so we agree there.

I'm not quite seeing it, Chuck.

Who are you exactly? This "threat" totally sucks ballz.

This weather really sucks this time of year. C&D in March...Utterly useless. I don't want real warmth either. Just normal. High temps in the low to mid 50s would be perfect.

Posting/discussing GFS 384 hr panels for March 22, depicting yet another huge rainstorm, might be an indication that the last stand has fallen down, and will not be getting up.

Yeah 20 here, and a stiff wind. Done with it. Just a wretched winter lol.

I am eliminating my 'lawn', bit by bit. Just doesn't work well in the woods- soil gets too dry in summer- grass burns up, then there is the moss, moles, etc. Its a disaster lol. About to put in a fire pit with stone/wood/mulch surround, sprinkled with small plants.
