See what you done did?

Something to consider: What if we all were standing out in a cold, raw rain...and for whatever reason somebody felt the need to say "It's raining!" every 5 minutes...as if we didn't know that already? Lol I mean...if it was painfully obvious to everybody else, would it still be valuable to hear somebody say that every 5 mins? Sure, they'd be 100% correct that it's raining...but after awhile...would an already miserable crowd not be justified and saying "Yes, we know!"?

Huh...wonky distribution of totals this time, lol You have to wonder if other models pick up on this, it could be a rate-dependent thing.

And those blockbuster years...I'm guessing it would have to involve another mechanism to overcome possible temp issues? Because it doesn't seem like track is enough anymore, tbh I'm trying to envision exactly how snow happens in these conditions.

If so...man that was quick! I mean just 4 years ago at least NYC could do better (and even Boston). It feels like what may have been a gradual decline just went off a dang cliff the last 3 years! I mean prior to 2020 I don't remember perfect track middle of winter rainstorms and cutter after ccutter. Yeah we had our normal fails from Miller Bs, unlucky timing (i.e. Dec 2018) and other things...but not like this. Of course my view could be skewed from not knowing anything about tracking until 2014 or so, but...this feels awfully sharp to me.

Here's what I'm wondering...Have the tides already turned even for NE of us? I mean they've rained on setups they should snow on too. I asked if their climo would become what ours used to be...but if the coast is already warm this year...hasn't it already happened? I mean latitude hasn't been helping anybody up there (not sure where Boston is snow-wise) I'm trying to figure out how much is this season and how much may be permanent...line is getting a bit blurry... P.S. You and your "ya's"...lol

This winter even fantasy snow hasn't broken our way...so even with this run we're already further than we have been

And this time at my expense of course...for no reason whatsoever...Tryin' do better but people keep throwin' my misdeeds in my face even when I do something right... @psuhoffman This is why I overreacted to Ji a while ago--on here I always gotta be on the defensive because of stuff like this.

I don't know...might not be enough lols But that technology is really something...no wonder professors and others are worried about it! I mean it's up there passing law exams for crying out loud, lol

Ah I see...so I'm completely incapable of saying anything insightful, smh But ya know, this shows respect is earned. I won't be better in the eyes of many on here until I sustain my change in posting habits over time. Then again...I shouldn't care what random people think either. Can't please everybody.

Man the next time we actually get a snowstorm, we're gonna be so jaded going in we won't believe it even if it's a classic Miller A with enough cold and consistent model runs of a crushing 2 Days away, lol

Yeah that's probably one of my favorite Beatles song inspiration stories...because it brings together two great musical loves: Beethoven and Beatles!

Whatever the upside here (if there is any), it's clear the models are having difficulty with exactly how the pieces are interacting here. Would expect some jumping around still for another day or two.

Ding-ding! Fun fact: That song was actually born out of Beethoven Lennon was listening to Yoko play the Moonlignt Sonata...he told her to play it backwards and...out came Because! (Notice it's in the same key, lol)

Hey I don't think we disagree on the too warm part, actually...but maybe we oughta transfer this to the other thread though. I get what you're saying here though--it is just too warm (hey that can summarize all your paragraphs )

Now what did I do? I had a little fun with a model run like everybody else what's the problem? (If it was too bantery then I get it)

Please log off till Feb 15th lol Feb 15th? Nah if we don't have potential somewhat locked in for PD weekend by that time that may be the date I log OFF, lol

Because the map ain't blue It makes me cryyyyyyy-y Because the map isn't blu-u-u-u-u-u-u-u.... (Name that song reference )

I gather the emotional side of things kinda goes past ya...lol (correct me if I'm wrong about that) I mean I get it--some are wired more cut and dry and others more sensitive to the emotional. The news is the most unpleasant...and worse everybody already knows it! I think most already got a sense of how bad it is and being reminded of it 20x a day ain't pleasant. Won't change anything but less focus can "feel" better even if the present reality doesn't change. Can't change reality but you can change what you focus on...I'm actually amazed that it does affect ya hyperfocusing on this as much as you do--no idea how that works, lol

I think there's more leeway to say it in here...just not in the main thread.

And I don't know...maybe it's because I'm in no position to move (and that things more important than snow keep me here), but I find the suggestion slightly annoying. It's like implying everybody can just pick up and move regardless of means, position, family, etc...just doesn't quite work like that for everybody. But again...I could just be projecting so don't mind me, lol

Are you like...resigned but frustrated at the same time?

Anywhere else around the country seen a decline in snow climo? (Anybody see an increase? Lol)

I wonder where even they will be in another 8-10 years if this is the new normal...will they be us from before 2016? Lol

Annnnd we don't know why it's warmer unless it's CC...I mean if that's the case we're gonna have to just adjust to it (I think we will over time as this may become the norm and it'll be more like the south, lol). At least we'll know what to expect. It just may not be able to do what it used to. Now if we do finally get a 35 winter again then we can talk
