WinterWolf

Earlier you mentioned the 28th….And here it is. I know a week plus out, so it’ll most likely be gone next run, but just funny you mentioned the date.

We like that HP there.

Yes it was…N. Maine was buried that year.

And 2008 up there.

The difference in your posts and Scott’s this winter have been astounding. You can see/sense his broken spirit in his posting. No offense intended here…just the difference is stark this winter.

Perhaps not recordbreaking (in the northeast at least) as you point out…but plenty cold nonetheless, and sustained. Doesn’t need to be any colder than it’s been lol.

I guess my point was…the roads were dry. The big ice on the rock walls on the sides of the highways wasn’t dripping. The snow in the medians were rock solid with no melting into the highways. Sure Icicles on the south side of a roof will drip in direct sunlight, and what not…but there was no melting of the snowpack on the sides of the highways as there can be most times. Just what I observed.

Yes, when I drive for any length..jacket is off. Of course had to have heat going for my first 3-4 hrs, then had to keep intermittently using the heat in the truck after about 10-11 am…driving 80 plus for 8-9 hrs with no temps above freezing the whole way, required the heat to be turned on and off to stay comfortable.

What is this you guys are speaking of?

Wow, I drove home from way up north….And came through all of Maine, into S. NH and into Mass and CT, and I didn’t see anything at all melting anywhere. Still that glistening frozen top on the snow fully intact. Temps below freezing the whole way home. But that’s just what I observed on a 550 mile drive.

Doesn’t it take longer than 10 days to actually see any results though…? Usually a two week plus lag no? If we are seeing the effects from the Feb 10th split this week, that would be a pretty darn fast turn around time(like 5-6 days). Just remember reading that it takes a good amount of lag time.

Loaded up here in The County…conditions are superb. Did 500 miles the last few days. They’re in great shape.

Yes…sometimes ya get boned..and we certainly have in the snowfall department this time. Be nice to pull something off if it stays cold for a while yet..

Ya, last year(august of 24) that was certainly the case. But the year before it certainly wasn’t with record breaking heat in September of 23. But I get what you mean. But my gut tells me this isn’t gonna be an early spring year this go around.

It’s been the same thing all season…lean colder in the longer range, and that idea will be more right this winter. As far as snow…just the opposite unfortunately. We’re seeing it again now as the colder scenario is again gaining steam in the ensembles.

that doesn’t look like the back of winter is broken in that depiction, that’s for sure. She’s gonna torture for a while yet it seems…

Like it has all winter…this is no different. Some of us knew. She’s gonna drag this torture out til the end….

93-94 was a record breaker here in CT. And yes, 92-93 was pretty decent too. But before that it was just like this…nothing would work out. Everything that could go wrong would…Abs here we are again.

Ya…it says alot of things. And has teased with that before this season. But maybe it’ll be right this time?

Unfortunately, decent Spring weather is a ways off it seems, but I get your drift. Regarding the miss to the south and East was expected…the crazy part is this happens pretty much every time at this lead time…the difference in some other seasons, is they end up coming back. But this year she just doesn’t want to play ball. I’ll check in later this evening and see how many posts there will be by 7 or 8 pm. If there’s less than 100 new posts..I won’t even bother looking.

Checking in and saw all the great posts…then the big let down. But the jog east/miss was so predictable…happens pretty much every time with a big bomb being forecast. Most of us knew it was coming. Sometimes they come back, sometimes they don’t. Knowing this year and finding every way to fail …it’s probably not coming back north/west enough for us here in SNE. Can’t seem to reel anything in this season. Disappointing. Up in Northern Maine…20” blizzard coming in later this afternoon and overnight. So if we can’t get it at home on Thursday, at least I’ll see it here today.

For some reason I’m drawing a blank on that one currently, which was before the blizzard(that was not (WOR) lol. Edit: ok now it just came to me. But I don’t remember getting 9” from it. But I guess I did…lol.

Exactly..still out there. But we have more models on board at the moment, than not..so trends I guess?

Jan of 22 you had 11”? Nice. I think we had about 8” here. What a dud that thing was here. Good riddens to that POS.

Lol…that’s good Scott.
