No, you know how it goes.... I'm pretty sure some/many people want the hype, it's more exciting to them than reality. The busts will be forgotten about and they will be welcomed the next time they hype lol
It's not going to be extremely rainy either. Just here and there. I'm looking forward to my partly sunny Sunday and Monday afternoons with temps near 60.
Ray that would be a really nice winter, at least one 4" storm each month DJFM and a coastal March 1 here with 10" of snow. Cold January long snowcover with frequent small snowfall.
I'd also like to know how the average would change if we threw out December 2015.
Warmest December I have ever experienced-- December 2015
Coldest December I have ever experienced-- December 1989
Interestingly, neither saw much snow!
December 1989 is a textbook example of cold and dry or cold followed by rain followed by more cold.
It would be funny if DC saw more snow this winter than we do.
