Hahahaha That is awesome. Now introducing...the saxacone!

Now this is the part of the weenie psychology I don't get: posting snow maps for something Day 7/8...smh Why y'all do this to yourselves, seriously? Lol

Yeah that would be funny, wouldn't it? Lol

This post right here, lolol Well done sir

Wait it was you? Ohh so THAT'S why the storm column got stacked up like one of your baked goods!

@MillvilleWx I can't believe you are my age (only older by 7 months) yet have that wisdom and perspective on this. Seeing you and @Fozz I've clearly missed the mark big time). Glad you got to the point where ya did--thanks for all your excellent posts!

Oh dang really? Thought there was still a bit of a storm signal next weekend (with a couple waves flying around after)

All goes back to that wanting vs needing...I'm telling ya! I think Bob's post the other day about the mental state of this place was spot-on! Lol If ya don't go through it ya may not get it, but it's there nonetheless! I think it comes from a warped perspective, where snow becomes this huge thing that basically overtakes everything and becomes an unhealthy determinant of joy/happiness...how it happens? Who knows...But the key is in how ya deal with it. And unfortunately...many here ain't doing that well and it ruins it for others. I get why the deb posts are what they are...nowhere else to go with all the angst, and not having a healthier outlet of release (something that can be worked on).

I think it depends on how you approach it. If ya deal with it more from the "why" as opposed to just shouting out disappoints...ya might get somewhere. Kinda like how there are support groups for various things (including various mental health struggles)struggled. While not a cure-all, it can be therapeutic. Folks could have coping mechanisms and such...It may sound like I'm getting too deep--but only because I think it runs deeper than folks who above dealing with it (you're blessed) realize.

WJZ labeled this as a "Nor'Easter"...isn't that a bit inaccurate? Or does it technically fit that definition despite...what we'll be seeing, lol

With so many in this forum dealing with a similar thing it would be good group therapy right here. I've been saying that the Panic Room didn't really accomplish much...but if there were another thread to kinda air out the reasons behind how some of us are...it may help more.

I would suggest for some of you to just let this one go and go back into LR tracking. Still things to monitor there

Yeah you are on that has mastered that department...but others ain't there yet. I mean I don't know whether some choose to need it to snow, or if the need is ingrained coming from something deeper. I mean I suppose you could get up one day and choose not to NEED it to snow...but I'm not sure it's that east either--especially if you're not sure why. I don't think you get a slew of depressed posts if there wasn't some level of NEEDING it to snow. Forgive me...got my Sigmund Freud glasses on today, lol

I don't think it's intentional...I think it's legit depression over snow.

I was thinking about this whole thing of the depressed posts and such...and this question came to me: Do we want it to snow, or do we also NEED it to snow? I think that's a question some of us need to as ourselves. Wanting? Good! But needing it to could point to a deeper issue that needs to be addressed.

@psuhoffman Got a couple questions about your post: So if that the problem we're seeing with Sunday's mixed mess? Not enough confluence? Or was is something else involved too? Is there a reason why "this type" of storm can cut? I guess this question might be one more for one of the zoom chats...I wanna see exactly what you mean by "a well timed 50/50 coming over the top". And to the other issue when a NS waves phases right behind...YUCK. All I can see is March 2018--boo! (Although I don't fully understand why that made the storm do what it did). So in other words....if we can get the Great Lakes to play nice, maybe we get something going!

Man it better not do the same thing as what we're getting Sunday...or else that would be an absolute troll run, lol

I did! But for seeing if there was any next weekend potential, lol

Man I've BEEN over this since like late Monday, lol Now some of ya kinda trolled me for giving up on this weekend on Monday...but now I'm kinda glad I did! This whole thing looked messy from the start to me...with that whole weird ocean low and the wonky suppressed solutions...just wasn't quite feeling it! @stormtracker I'm with ya--I really want next weekend to work out too...been keyed in on it for a bit (especially if we get the forecasted ice box afterward, lol). We shall see!

Welcome--I moved on from that a couple days ago, lol

Yeah it took me a long while to figure that out too, lolol Not sure why it doesn't show up vertically on the mobile site!

These maps literally look like layers of consciousness...and something out of Dr. Seuss, lol

Now does that have to do with their geography (or perhaps the proper term is topography?) Is their elevation such that it's still cold enough for frozen previl, yet not cold enough for all the layers to be cold?

I've always wondered why that is

The lesson: Be careful about gushing about snow to people withim shoveling distance...lest they use your snow loving against you...with back-breaking results, lol
