I feel ya man. And the fact that the cold is only gonna last a few days is even worse. We are in just some kind of snow drought right now that ya hope isn't our future. Even for here this is really bad. And this fail is just salt in the wound given just how close we appeared to be to having a white Christmas. I try not to rant on here as much, but days like today make it frickin' hard not to. Yes, there are more important things in life--it's just...this still SUCKS. It ain't right man...I wish I didn't care as much when things don't work out. But...a snowlover is a snowlover, lol
Hey my expectations for this year were low too (I did leave the door cracked open in case the hunga tunga eruption benefited us). My focus has been on next winter to see if that still works. Let's just get this dang triple nina outta here and start with a new deck. Meanwhile the break from tracking won't be such a bad thing for me anyway, lol (although I'd certainly love a surprise!)
This snow drought is worse than the 1970s? I mean, eyeballing those numbers for BWI...looks almost as bad, lol
Eta: The BWI numbers between 70-71' and 76-77' are as follows:
13.0, 14.0, 1.2, 17.1, 12.2, 11.5, 11.1
Total: 80.1 inches
Same! Yeah sometimes I wish he wouldn't to keep things lighter at least for this time of year...BUT, a stat is still a stat and doesn't quite care how it makes ya feel, lol
May as well post 'em now and get it out of the way, lol
But it would he interesting if if worked out like that...numbers can't always see anomalies, BUT around here they ain't meaningless either.
Btw I'm not insinuating your stats aren't pertinent...but dang man the late night doom!
Half our winters are like this though, lol If you look at our biggest storms...Most with the exception of 96 and Dec 09 came on or after mid Jan! And even the epic 2009-10 season we blanked most of January, lol Nothing is a guarantee, but just giving a bit of context.
C'mon dude...As it is, there are already enough microclimate WITHIN our subforum without having to add another that most wouldn't find any relevance to.
