Honest question, how is this a torch? It looks dull and seasonable more than anything. It’s not cold, it’s not snow, and it’s not memorable. (You did say signs, so I’m assuming it’s going to trend warmer?) .
I really don’t understand why people revel in always being warm or always insisting the next ice age is right around the corner. It *feels* like it’s the social media driver of our id that subconsciously insists that we vanquish our dissenters. .
In Florida the past few days. 74° and sunny right now, going to 80° today. Flying home tonight prior to the storm. Beautiful here. I understand why people snowbird. .
Also, pattern reading experience aside (which I do not possess), the top notch nor’easters and snowstorms have always clustered in the first half of February here. (Your analysis is always great; just seems like December storms are infrequent versus February. We’re just conditioned to want snow in the darkest time of the year and around Christmas.) .
I love catching up on sixty-plus posts in the morning and finding that everyone is acting and bickering and bitching like my mother and her friends, who are all over 70. Everyone is really suffering from snow withdrawal, after getting hit after warm syrupy hit of snow in the past twenty years. .
