So you can still have wet snow even with teens?

I thought 2003 was more of the heavy and wet variety? (I had assumed heavy and wet meant 28-32 degrees)

Yeah even here it was like low 20s if I'm not mistaken.

Our snowiest history has always been..."just cold enough". Very seldom is it 20 degree cold powder (I think the 2016 blizzard came close though, didn't it?) 28-32 degrees...But now we gotta see if "just cold enough" still exists! That's why I'm rooting for this Nino so we know where we're at. I do hope it still works...but we'll see.

I don't think they will. We don't need to be any 7-0 right now. I think "Don't peak too soon" is a very real thing with the Ravens. Both times when we peaked early and got the No. 1 seed (2006 & 2019) we got bounced early! For whatever reason we do better when we gotta fight for it a little more. Last two SB championships we did the WC at home and went road the rest of the way, lol

I can roll with that...because that would be at least one good storm which is more than what we've had, and Aaron Rodgers throwing during warm-ups as a potential bonus we'd never expect

Unless the worst happens with the AO...then we'll be bemoaning Hunga, lol

Yeah even with lowered expectations and the unknown of what still works, if HTHH ruins an otherwise good look we haven't gotten in years, that's gonna hurt given what we've gone through. C'mon we don't deserve that, lolol That would be Jets fan luck

I seem to recall the 2012 team starting out an ugly 5-1 team (legit just looked at a fb memory where I was complaining about how awful the defense looked. I know one game we scored no TDs but won somehow). And really though...how often have the Ravens looked "pretty" anyway? Lol

I'd like to know the same.

Do we really have to dance around it and/or beat it into ground everyday this winter? It's getting warmer, not snowing as much. Period. Pin it, put it at the top...and let's just enjoy what we do get. For me it's getting less and less "fears" and more...uh yeah, we're already here. The way I see it, if this is the reality...it's best we take it for what it is and see what we can still get. I'd love for this to be a legit niño (no volcano interference please, lol) so we can get a legit test of what has been our higher percentage enso state...to see what we can still squeeze out of our new climo.

Speak for yourself

I've been asking about the volcanic analogs and if it's best to use them given we're talking about water and not sulfur...

Right! And then instead of winning the WS they got Giants even-yeared, lol Yeah I'll never forget all them dang cheap runs

Now, seeing as this is water vapor instead of ash (sulfur?)...is the comparison to other volcanos the same? Seems to me it would be a little more unknown, no?

find the emotions to be quite similar...with the sports emotions being a bit more intense. Snow-wise it feels like watching a mediocre team for almost 8 years and desperately hoping for a turnaround, lol

After this year...if we don't do anything in the postseason...then it may be time to have that discussion.

Yeah I don't know what this team is this year...other than fantastic defensively. I think there's room to improve. The problems are more mental than with the construction of the team. Literally--don't fumble, don't drop...and we'd be 5-0 right now. The offense is better, Lamar is better, defense is ballin' out! The ingredients are there...just have to like, not do those fundamental things!

And it they're not that's okay. They're on their way--if it doesn't work out this year most of them are back next year. This group has championship potential--but this could be the growing pains, this being their first time in the postseason. And btw our struggle to produce many runs called for being aggressive there--it was just poorly executed and poorly timed, imo

This what we doing today? ORIOLES MAGIC

It's too early for these bars man!! Lolol

So it's totally okay to be very biased the other way right? Lol He seems to tweet with an "own the snow hounds" tone. I don't quite get it

Ah okay...so no here we are a year later...would the effect migrate north after all that time? (I'm curious as to why we didn't see the same effect up here last year)

That's not what I meant--I was referring more in general (like any current observations of anything in the atmosphere that would indicate said water vapor being a factor).

Did you really see one though? Lol
