Trolling isn't something I do. It really is exactly how I actually feel...I'm gonna be better eventually. Just ain't there yet.

I'll admit it--I'm an emotional dude. Snow gets to me where more than it should but I do believe I am not far from being able to put snow in it's proper, more healthy place. But I am definitely not there yet...but I can see the cracks in the armor of this thing that has had it's gold on me. Yes I get out of line, (got out of line today) and gets rightfully smacked down when I do. Why I post like I do and as much as I do. Maybe it's because there aren't many others who share our passion for snow. I have no clue (part of this is an addiction I'm almost sure of it). Just gotta keep in mind all the other readers of this forum and not how I personally feel about where things are or what people post, no matter what it is.

We'd all be more civil because there's no chance of snow there (oh wait...)

Yeah it did and that was really condescending and unnecessary. I know I get out of line but that was overly harsh, imo. Almost responded but decided just to take punch, lol Not worth gettin' into it

Listen to a degree I get it. A less-knowlegeable poster criticizing how a more knowledgeable poster posts looks really bad. Kind of like a rookie telling of a vet--even if the rookie thinks they have a legit point. Now, I don't think I was alone in my opinion THIS time.....but, other posters who contribute are respected and I get that. Nah there aren't any "places", and the forum is open. Now it's up to the mods if they wanna put the clamp down on subject matter and such (I wouldn't blame them if they did). Their call has to be respected.

We're moving on.

I wanted to apologize to you here. I am truly, truly sorry and I didn't realize how that sounded (wish I had realized it earlier. I feel absolutely awful for all the times I did it the last few years not realizing how it sounded and how you would feel about it. Man if had realized that earlier! In my rather quirky sense of humor I jokingly saw ya as a "mother" of this forum for whatever reason. But I see how that nickname is inappropriate and I do apologize for that and respect you as a moderator and as a human being. I pray you have a blessed day. --Maestro

I'm actually curious about the pattern starting next weekend...can we get a 7-10 days of decent cold? Still looks split-flowy to end the month and the start of February...

"Be safe, think snow!" Haha Love it!

That is both awesome and really, really pathetic (that you needed to to do it in the first place). Snowmakers in MD--that's when you know the current level of our desperation, lol

Yeah it did...just not on TT, lol

Dang I forgot all about that, lol What show was that again?

Same. Folks should put the two eaves next week on ignore, lol

If we can have a stretch like 2013/14-2015/16 I'm not sure it'll matter whether it makes this stretch look worse, lol This will always be the worst period in our snow climo...and if things don't turn around I think it'll look even worse (I mean we just did 1.2" three years ago...I do hope we can avoid that this year...but who frickin' knows?)

@psuhoffman Your last post...are you saying the arctic (the cold air source) just ain't cold? Lol

Translation: The arctic isn't cold enough, lol (we should really move this though...we're about to step over the line)

Not based on that...and that's out in fantasy range anyway. Now if it still looks like that 4 days from now then nah. Just a hunch that's all, lol If we gonna get on the board it'll happen late Jan or early Feb.

That neither wave next week is gonna work out didn't surprise me...I mean they were low probability from the start and I largely ignored them save 12z yesterday when there was a slight hiccup. Now what would be more disappointing is if we can't manage to pull off flakes of some kind the following weekend. That's the period I've been kinda keyed in on since last week...I mean maybe it'll be persistence again, maybe not. We haven't seen the setup look quite like that either and we have a little more cold to the north. So be it by a little piece of energy or something more...it's worth watching (nothin' to lose, lol) And even after that let's just see where it goes...

Forced what now? Lol

Yeah man don't fall for that, lol This is why I'm pretty much ignoring both of those waves! I'm hoping we can try to get something behind them

I needed this news, lol Not anything personal against the dude...but I am relieved that he's moving on!

Me thinks there's a slight chance next weekend or maybe just beyond...whether it be what we'd like is anybody guess (sarcasm forbidden on this post )...but but me thinks precip could be around, and at least you'd have some sort cold nearby...

Man I don't care...The "it's a nina" argument doesn't quite explain having no slow even further up the east coast to this date. Even if we end up in a nina snow hole they always get something by now. That's niño behavior, imo...Some of the futility dates referenced here and elsewhere have linked back to niños, lol So this is just weird, imo (whatever it's worth, lol)

Which one? Shubert or Gounod?
