  1. Forgive me but...I don't know why those who want to argue against masks (not saying you specifically) keep using this one early moment in time as support for it...It's almost like the mask advice given from April onward didn't matter. It's always "But at first you said..."...I don't know if it's a genuine "can't unring that bell" argument or just an anti-mask excuse.
  2. Oh sure, so the nina this year can couple, but the niño of 18'-19', for whatever reason, couldn't...offfffffcourse, lol
  3. That's not far off from a hypothetical unfolding. It could reach Cat 4 and then weaken rapidly prior to landfall. Ha...opposite of everything else this year, lol
  4. I figured he was on it...that doctor earlier didn't have the best poker faced when the reporters pressed him about it, lol
  5. Yep...goin' super saiyan right up to landfall...I wonder what's caused that phenomenon this year?
  6. While I pray that the President recovers and doesn't have any serious complications...this theme is all I could think about when I first heard about his diagnosis, lol
  7. Yeah I hear your point there...just splitting hairs a little
  8. Not so much at BWI...looks like we got 14", 1.8", and then 8"...so still no back-to-back
  9. Never said we were due for average...6 inches is still below average or median, lol But just speaking to having two 1-inch winters in a row has never happened, that's all. So "better" in a sense of not being in the bottom barrel of 2 inches...
  10. Well, it doesn't HAVE to be...but it would be a historical anomaly...at least at BWI. Looking up and down the record, there have never been two consecutive winters where we got less than 2 inches. That would be a new historic level of fail--even for here--if that happened. Following our lowest winters, there was always an uptick of some sort...would often be like 6-8 inches, and one time 17", and once was above average with 24 inches (1992-93) So definitely no history of it...and let's hope things stay that way
  11. Ya know...I sometimes wonder if folks today would be using that same logic back in 1918...I could see it now: "Oh, the fatality rate is ONLY 3%! 97% of people are fine!" (I know the percentages aren't the same, but you get my drift, lol)
  12. Wait which part if 2010 were you referring to? The actual winter of 2009-10, or the December 2010 (boxing day) storm?
  13. Man are you tryin' activate traumatic memories around here?? It's nearly ten years later and that's still too soon dude, lol
  14. Lol Hey, you know me...if there has to be snow suffering..."All together now" And hey, better to get these bad look LR forecasts now instead of getting a head-fake...so that if there's a surprise, AWESOME! But if not...the expectations are low to begin with, lol
  15. At least we know we can't do worse than that winter...lol (because we just had the same total last winter!l
  16. Hey the WDI was my idea! (or at least I thought it was...lol)
  17. But it only helped down here at the end of January. Remember we got gipped in December 2010, lol
  18. A few? Thought '96 was the only one, lol
  19. I mean...just taking a more plain,, commonsense language approach here...doesn't "active" mean, well...a lot of activity? So on a basic linguistic level of definition...isn't the number of storms enough to verify as such? Lol Was the prediction "hyperactive AND strong"? If not, then technically...it verifies
  20. Was that why we were able to pull off Commutagedon (late Jan 2011) down here?
  21. At the very least I can't see us staring down 1.8" again (that was the BWI measurement)...Historically when we got that low, we'd at least be able to follow up with a 6-8" total for the season...BWI has never once done back-to-back sub 2" winters, lol
  22. Hey look...at least this time there won't be many expectations. I mean if these turn out to be right, it'll still suck, but at least there won't have to be disappointed hopes too, lol And also...if it's like last year at least we'll all kinda be in it together here on the East Coast! But it would be kinda historic though to have back-to-back winters where most of the MA and northeast got little to nothing, wouldn't it?.....Let's hope it's a least a little better that, lol
  23. Now...if I may ask a rookie question...what exactly is ACE, and how is it measured? (I hear you guys mention ACE so much but I've never really understood it, lol)
  24. Didn't know "real tropical poster" was a prerequisite for posting...lol Now I will admit my general geography skills aren't the best, but this I still say the image was kind of a quiz question because of there being no other point of reference visible (I'm used to looking at it in relation to Texas, lol)
