  1. Yeah I was reeeeaaal salty and annoying on here after being fringed by that Jan 2022 storm....one of several moments on here I'm not proud of.
  2. Same, lol And I'm not even that far north. The city kinda got skunked even though BWI recorded 6 inches (I don't think we got more than 2-2.5)
  3. Whoa! Pretty strong snow and sleet burst right now. 41 degrees. (Hey...first flakes I've seen since last year! Awesome )
  4. Definitely. And again, this is the first clipper we've seen since what...2015? Lol
  5. If there's thunder...I'll bring out the old folklore rhyme, lol
  6. Oh yeah? Nice! Didn't see any flakes up here in my neighborhood...family member reported some in Parkville, though. Looks like I still haven't laid eyes on a flake since 2023, lolol Hopefully I will soon
  7. Alright, so just park a nice band over Mt. PSU and...
  8. How often would we get a clipper this early, though? (Although I get your overall point of the apparent clipper disappearance. But I'd argue if this were a month later it would've been better)
  9. And I do wonder if we have enough data to compare snowstorms to now in terms of what a storm A 60 years ago would've looked like today. That part seems more speculative as of now rather than backed up by solid data.
  10. Yeah it probably doesn't since it's technically a separate discussion from long range stuff. I mean, I don't know...it's a little bit murky since we do talk about analogs and such. But when this other sufff gets brought up the thread seems to get in the weeds a bit.
  11. The theory is that with a warmer globe some storms on the margin back then may not work as well now. But that's if you believe in warming, lol I think the resistance to the idea of our snow climo not being what it was is twofold: 1) The fear of it being true (of course most of us wouldn't WANT it to be true, and are hoping it isn't) 2) The general polarization of the AGW debate
  12. I have no clue how everybody would get out of there in one piece, lol
  13. Well, we certainly know where it belongs...the digital snow thread!
  14. Shows you how much of a unicorn 2009-10 was. And even that event was followed by a torch, and those 19 inches were already a memory by Christmas night, lol (Now I can't remember how that month started temp-wise though)
  15. Consider the source...lol I find it rather annoying when there are knowledgeable posters with a HEAVY warm bias. So it's just enough to contribute, yet some of them can troll too.
  16. Seems like the models wanna give Wednesday a little more juice...perhaps we see our first flurries? (It's been so long since I've seen a falling flake of any kind that I'd actually get up for that if they happen at 7 am, lol)
  17. Dang...so now Lamar is the last starting QB standing in the AFC North. I am PRAYING he stays healthy after what we've gone through the last two seasons!
  18. It's the same as somebody posting a monthly projection here, though. Just like we say "this model still likes some snow at the end of the month"...he did the same. Now yes, Tony is a weenie like many of us, but I don't see anything wrong with this. Don't really think it's "hyping" either. Just like if somebody says the extended models favor a better pattern by then...
  19. Like I said the other day...science and emotion don't always go together, lol
  20. What these two posts are referencing is precisely why I cannot fully embrace the possibility of a better winter, or seeing something different than the last 7 years. This stuff could cause a Niño not to work, thereby putting a fork in any above-mediam snow possibilities. We just don't know...that's the thing. We simply don't know, and being skeptical is not illogical given what we've seen. If the Niño works I will be thrilled...but until then...hard to be TOO optimistic just yet.
  21. I'm seeing an underlying poo-pooing anybody who posts about whether the warmer state of the globe overall is negatively impacting snowy setups that used to work. On the surface it's a "Why ate you worried about that and it's just Dec 2nd", but underneath that there's an aversion to the whole aspect of a "bade state" and a warmer globe. Some of you act like that couldn't even be a possibility--which I don't understand because we've all been watching the last 7 years. For me, that alone is enough to be skeptical of anything working until we actually see it work THIS season. Sure a setup worked 15-20 years ago...but show me how recently it worked. Yes, we have not had a legit Niño since the 2015-16 super...so that's different from the last 7 years. But you can't just dismiss any concern about certain influences being permanent features that interfere with snowy patterns.
  22. As you said in another thread...it's fear because of last year and the 4-5 years prior. So those posts are more emotion than science...and the inherent unknowns of the winter simply because it's just Dec 2nd leave a gap of speculation, lol
  23. I'm still a bit annoyed that we wasted the last solar minimum, smh
