Dang. Even Towson to NE balt city is a difference in rain/snow ratio, lol Glad I had things I had to do in Towson/Timonium today

Is it just me or has an early early trend for this upcoming winter has been more short term warm-ups and back to cold? (It has been a breath of fresh cold air after seeing the opposite so many years!).

Still snowing here in Towson! Very nice scenery snow--fluffy flakes mixed in! I don't wanna go inside to do what I gotta do because I don't wanna miss a flake of it, lol

Hey look! Mood flakes in December A nice surprise this morning

I thought that was 2019-20 that he called the dead ratter? Seems like his outlook was slightly more optimistic for 20-21.

Couldn't make out the date...this February 11, 2011?

It was active last year, was it not? But we couldn't get any stable blocking.

And besides...has there ever been a time we've had an STJ in a non-nin̈o?

I always wonder what these things would be like if we didn't have mountains, lol

That's what it looks like--and given what we've been facing the last 9 years, I don't think any of us should complain about that! Now a cold rain would be annoying tho...give me a cold dry Christmas over that any day, lol

I'm gonna start calling you the purple crumudgeon, lol No backup would ever be able to replace Lamar. And Josh Johnson is a veteran who can manage a game--and having Derrick Henry that's all you'd need for a game, imo

And another Jackson 5!!!!! And now he can sit down after a hard day's work

Brandon Stephens cannot play CB on the outside anymore. Dude can't find the dang ball to save his life! That's TWO PI's today, smh

And how about Tez Walker coming out of absolutely nowhere!!!!! Lol

Danny Devito out for the game...and I don't like that one bit. Giving me 2012 Kirk Couisins flashbacks, smh

Alright so he had a horrible game at an awful time. But dang y'all as many years as we wanted a great offense, now we have one and some of y'all can't even appreciate it.

I'm chuckling at how the fanbase is turning on Monken despite the offensive numbers this year, lol

"Rioting?" Lol So "Man riots at cloud?" Listen man...what else is there to do but just be grateful for what we get? We certainly don't control the weather...We don't know whether things will/can improve or not in this unknown era of climate whatever we're in. So when what what we expected becomes few and far between, we oughta become much more appreciative of what we do get. Because again...we can't control it. Does it suck that we haven't been getting what we used to? Absolutely. Are the snowfall numbers and the number of consecutive seasons where crap in the atmosphere doesn't work? Absolutely. But...keeping the "standards" high despite the current reality only brings more frustration. Better to adjust the standards to what is as opposed to what we wish it could be. Otherwise it's bad for the brain, lol I feel your frustration and I get it. I've blown up and whined and complained on this site plenty and driven folks crazy--so yeah I get it! But I know for me I've been working to get to a place where I don't dwell on it, and if something like a cold December is what we get, hey it's better than a torch. Just gotta be grateful

Now the question is...is this indicative of a larger change even beyond this season, or just a temporary one?

Well, you said the other analogs were cold in December and torched the rest of the way right? Lol And hey, this winter was already expected to be a ratter...if that happens it'll just be more of a shoulder shrug punt to the next (but still kinda annoying)

Ah so you do care if it snows

My question is why do people buy into it...particularly after the last 8 years? I mean at least before that you had just had that heater the Mid Atlantic and Norrheast went on between 2010 and 2016...but now isn't hype more of the boy who cried wolf?

That thumbnail isn't a good "no-hype" first impression, lol

Perhaps I read too much into it. When you said "so much for 'it's the pacific'" I thought you were speaking out of dread of the larger issue. My bad

Hey that'd be a nice backdrop for Ravens-Steelers
