Yeah why bother? Lol Although I don't care how far out in lala land it is...clown maps like this still make me mad just because of the mere image of the fringeline nobody can explain

Yeah but that's kinda dumb to say fire him for that. Failure on the OL is not a fireable offense for crying out loud. Do people realize how monumental of a change that would be? There are other parts of this team EDC did a great job with drafting and building. (Even trades he made on defense helped the pass rusher not be AS awful and freed up KH) You can say he royally screwed up on the line without jumping all the way over there. People don't know what a bad GM actually looks like, lol And EDC has not been what is preventing us from winning a SB: Harbaugh is. 2023 was a prime example of that. EDC almost made that team unstoppable if the Titans owner hadn't vetoed the Henry trade. Now, an aside about the trade deadline: You don't see OLs traded very often that time of year--it seems like teams are less willing to break up a line even in a losing season. Even so...he needed to do more in the off-season. But I suspect it's gonna be different this coming off-season because Lamar is probably gonna demand it before signing anything!

So apparently some think EDC should be fired too...I'm sorry but I don't understand. He is not a bad GM!

Heh...see what ya did there

Not that it would have to be correlation, but...last year was one year where if ya underestimated it you were right, lol

I'm kinda at peace with whatever happens this season...my lowest bar is to just make the playoffs. After that I expect us to get the boot right away, and hopefully that'll force a change. We can't go for the SB this year in our current condition. Side note: I learned this week that our O-line coach has been fired 9 times, and all his O-lines got worse, smh Had no idea he had that bad of a track record! Needless to say he won't be back next year, lol

Sucky offense...defense is what kept us in it.

People should just keep expectations neutral and view everything within the broader context of where we've been the last 8 years and what enso state we're in and go from there--instead of going up and down with the LR modeling and the inevitable chaos of tracking an actual threat.

I think you're expecting things that the computers are simply not advanced enough for those things not to happen sometimes. Why not just...accept the current limitations/biases and set forecasts/expectations from there instead of railing against the failures as if it's something easy to fix or some conspiracy? Technology simply isn't there yet. NWP (if I'm using that term correctly) is leaps and bounds better than it was 25-30 years ago but it still isn't a crystal ball! (and someone can correct me if I'm off base on any of that).

Not sure of the similarities to now, but...I remember a lot of SE ridge can kicks last year!

Did the SSW actually happen/still on track to happen?

I think he's making a joke about it looking like it says negative 16 inches, lol

I'm not sure EDC deserves to be fired over this. He just needs to fix the dang thing this off-season. Now Harbaugh is another matter

But that would be kinda atypical for a nina, no?

In my amateur opinion...I wouldn't get excited about any winter before it happens--especially in this current cycle of underperformance we've been in with this -PDO. Just keep expectations neutral...it is a nina so you know the potential of those is limited even in better conditions anyway.

Sounds like a very easy, canonical call!

Wut. Man it's too hard to get a Nino it takes forever! Or does a -PDO regime naturally produce more ninas?

That is a beautiful shot--especially the bottom image with the stars. Wow Very inspiring!

Yeah I mean I'm a snow miser like a lot of folks here. I want snow and plenty of it! Why he won't simply admit to being a heat miser when it's so blatantly obvious is beyond me--all our biases are loud and clear

How do I get that map from 2018 through now? That's the time period I really wanna see.

I must be misrembering then. I just know southern half has done better than the northern half of our sub since Dec 2018.. It's not one season but multiple ones since then. Precip boundary has been consistently south of here, hasn't it? NoVa has done better as well...but I could be wrong.

South definitely got more that year. Remember the TX freeze and the snow that came with it?

Oh no it wasn't just one. I'd love to look at the year by year for that. Wouldn't those averages be skewed by the mediocre years? And It's been several times in different areas. I can think of at least 6 years of the last 10 where places south got more. NC in Dec 2018, TX in February 2021, Snow in NO last year. 2019 southern MD getting more from that storm, and again last year--snow events in Alabama! Beach blizzard in...2018 I THINK. What I'm saying is the years that haven't been complete ratters, the south seems to be getting more. And you'd think it would happen less but the amounts have been consistently higher south of Baltimore since 2018 aside from years everybody failed.

Always. I would like the coulds around here to cooperate just one dang time.

And here's the part that defies common sense. So if this is the climate, you would think you WOULDN'T see snow and cold south of here as much...and yet over the last 7-8 years places south of Baltimore, and then places WAY south...have seen more snow. Like you would think that boundary shifting north=warmer and less snow south. You'd think you wouldn't see Texas freezing in 2021, onorthern. AL snowing last year, or again, Southern part of the forum having more snow than the northern. The whole thing is counterintuitive.
