If it is competitive there is always a chance. I'm not counting them out! This is the kind of thing that can spark a team...you just never know. We shall see!

Yeah @Bob Chill where are ya? Did you finally get tired of us last winter? Lol We miss your special brand of snow gut analysis!

Ha...of course very early, but...if, IF things were to work out with a -NAO and/or -AO and/or blocking for a change (...wouldn't that be enough to put the solar min back in the conversation? Again, obviously a big IF...but IF it were to happen what other explanation would there be? Lol (especially if it were to happen after going this long without, and happen in a nina on top of that?)

Well now...gotta that possible connection!

For our mental health we'd be better off just taking it as it goes...lol

Now that would be more typical nina behavior, no?

So I'm confused then as to why this looks more like a super nino December or something, lol Is there an anomaly?

Now I thought that at least front end of ninas were usually colder...not always the case?

Meant to respond yesterday: Dude, this right here? You are certainly not alone. I have had to weather similar psychological reactions to snow fails. I have been wanting to start a thread about the whole psychology of this...(tried but didn't get too many responses, lol). I'm not sure why we react the way we do, or how to dig ourselves out of the ditch (or stop ourselves from getting in there) when it happens. Shoot, I still just get a tad perturbed wben thinking about our more recent fails (like 12/8/18 or the miss in March of that year)...and it kinda piles on top of whatever isn't going right snow-wise. Ya tell yourself that this is such a tiny part of life and not worth the emotional energy...yet ya find yourself slipping, lol

But it sounds like the league is still bent on having the game Tuesday. If they do it...it might take a miracle for us to win.

Wait what? Man don't they get snow every nina?? (except maybe 96). I mean they cash in on late developers all the time...so what's their problem? Lol

I mean...ain't that a normal nina progression? Lol

Since we're talking about holiday lights...At my house we're a bit inexperienced with the outdoor lights, and have had problems the last couple years with something in the line shorting out. What can prevent this?

Was that the one where it showed in the evening somewhat unexpectedly?

So...what's the record on what happens after mild Thanksgivings? *searches for any trend for cold and snow*

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am thankful for all the weather knowledge that is shared here--I always learn something new every year! Also thankful to have an echo chamber for snow weeniness...for we are a peculiar breed, lol Have a blessed Thanksgiving everyone!

Except in this case some folk were sarcastically claiming it would be worse this year...a 1-3 incher would put that to bed immediately, lol And I put a guess out there that we'd see more than 1.8"...so I'd have a bit of investment in that

Is the end of a run ever really worth looking at? I'm wondering if it's better to wait for 10 days or like 240 hrs...I mean on hour 384...what can we reasonably glean from that? Possible trends?

Could ya say that in ninas it's better to assume east? Lol

So my question is...what do things have to look like to not make the snow miss? Lol Sounds like a dumb question, but what I'm saying is...is there anyway to tell in the LR if things look good enough that storms won't miss just northeast of here ala the bomb cyclone or boxing day 2010. When I think of ninas, I assume north or late developing is always an additional battle to fight...To prevent such, do we need even more blocking up top than we would during neutral/nino?

I'd imagine we wouldn't see Thanksgiving effects until a couple weeks into December, right?

I was hoping certain people (there are two or three in particular) wouldn't discover this thread was here. Because these same folks helped ruin all the other coronavirus threads on here, smh This is the last one standing! C'mon people...

But what you just mentioned is one thing that is not unchangeable: those little mistakes, and those little things that have gone wrong. Suppose we finally get our heads together and not do those things...different result. It's like we are a few steps or a few plays away...this Thursday could be telling.

I think the OL still has time to figure things out. Had a lot of shuffling around (I think today was one of several configurations we've started with this season). That is a chemistry thing...and that can work itself out. And it's not like Lamar isn't getting time to throw...So all it takes is for something Thursday to finally go right and keep us in this thing. We are at the point where one spark--in this case a big win on Thursday, and/or a possible firing of Roman, could make the difference. (Especially given the rest of our schedule)

Absolutely agree about Roman--he needs to go NOW (hey, we fired an OC late season before, lol)...and I also pretty much agree with ya on our receiver situation. I think the only way this get saved is if Dez steps up and becomes something like a No. 1...
