the drought lingered on and off to the summer of 1966...in 1950 the city hired a rain maker in April and it snowed instead...there has and always be wild swings in the weather...maybe not as cold but wild none the less...
Unc if that’s what happened, we could use that rain maker right about now. Providing we get him an order of protection from S19 and Dr. Dews. As always ...

Lovely 18z run
I have no clue why people would give you weenies. I mean are people trolling for warmth here or not looking at the pattern ahead.
It’s okay Anthony, some folks project on others what they wish they had. As always ......

The most frustrating thing about winters like this is the models always show something just over there towards the end of their run. Then we discuss it for awhile only for that to then appear as snow to rain and then closer to the event mainly white rain and then plain rain. It is frustrating. Hoping to head to Vermont in February to see some ‘winter’.
It seem, at time like this, the long range models should come embedded with A rendition of Over The Rainbow, sung beautifully by Judy Garland. “If happy little blue birds fly beyond the rainbow why oh why can’t I?” As always ....

I could live without it TBH. I'd have no issues moving to a milder climate if I didn't have the godawful heat in summer. Reason I didn't buy a summer place in ME, while I love it there, is the season is too short and I don't want to retire there. Splitting wood and sitting inside for months or trying to ice fish are not for me. I'm no outdoorsman, but I like to spend time on a lake or the ocean casting about. I can do that all winter not too far south from here. I would miss the snowstorms, but thems the breaks. Mulan, an old poster here who always had a comic relief effect, moved to FL a few years ago. He seemed to get used to it; the bass were biting, he said....but, FL is not for me for other reasons ( snakes, gators, land crabs....tropical heat...)
I agree with you on all points. Whichever direction you take will be the right one. When I was a young man I dreamed of owning and tending a lighthouse on the coast of Maine. My late wife and my daughters would buy me many items related to that dream. I still have a VHS tape of famous east coast lights. Now alone, I remaine with my inner city UHI blessed row house. I can still see the ocean, catch it’s scent on the breeze feel the sting of a northeast rain and even on occasion see snow. Now when the ships horn sounds,, the harbor bell rings and the guide light pulses and calls, my dream will remain but I will have waited to long to answer. As always ....

Under partly sunny skies that lasted until near mid-afternoon before overcast conditions developed, the temperature soared to a record 68° in New York City. Throughout the region, record high temperatures, many set in 1975 when a similar 500 mb pattern prevailed and a storm brought heavy precipitation to the Great Lakes region, were toppled. Four photos from the New York Botanical Garden early this afternoon:
Camilla in bloom. A southern plant tha hS done quite well in my postage stamp UHI blessed yard. Although Don, mid January is a bit early for them even by souther standards. .

what's so great about snow? seriously asking. i mean i enjoy a big storm but the obsession some of you guys have is weird as hell
“Weird” by definition can be quite subjective. From bird watching/photography, to fantasy sport leagues, to golf, to casual romance, to the love of snow. The least common denominator of all harmless obsessions is pleasure and enjoyment. If that to you is, indeed, weird, you have my sympathies even though your professional skill will always have my admiration. As always ....

Ok, so lets try this. Can you explain why the models manage to show a trough over us even with no atlantic blocking, no disturbed vortex, a bad pacific, and the mjo in the warm phases? If models are only part of it, shouldnt we try to break down how the models are wrong when saying theyre wrong?
Dont take offense, this isnt directed at you specifically, but one only needs to read through the monthly pages of our snowiest months to find posts saying “winter over”. Everyone blasts tony and metsfan for their at times unbelievably idiotic optimism, but plenty here do the same shit from the other side, either in a rush to be correct, or in some cases, they play debbie downer to lower their own expectations so when snow does come they create a little bubble of happiness. Lets try to at least act like we’ve been doing this hobby for long enough to sound better than grandma looking at caterpillar stripes.
Aw damn, I was trying so hard to find those caterpillars in my postage stamp this fall, so I could finally try a winter forecast. Oh well at least I have Grandma. As always......

Mm... nice op-ed floating around out there about the die off of the Kelp forests around/off the Tasmanian coast - the gate way to the Antarctic as it's known. The oceanic warming in that vicinity has bested the global average by 4 times. 4 times! ... and the consequence, that example right there is a direct one that expose how
GW that exceeds species adaptation rates

It's just a matter of degrees before the trigger is pulled.
Gaia can't make this message any more gentle and kind ... giving us small paradigms to sample our stench. but just like all incalcitrance ... you give them chances upon chances, break after break after break, and they don't amend.

Don't forget the Outer Limits, which many people think is on par with Twilight, but I never got into it.
I did watch and enjoy it. Some memorable episodes that tackled difficult issues of that day and indeed ours. Innovative beginning when control of you rat tv was taken over. This was deep in the Cold War era. I remember an episode where scientists bioengineered a man into an alien visage. The alien would land at the UN and threaten the world with destruction. The world would join forces to fight this outer enemy. it did not work out quite that way and the lesson was bittersweet.. the premise could probably be reworked for present situations/conditions.
