Not yet really

I really do get where you're coming from dude, but even so, it's apparent that you have strictly next-level expectations. You're right, winters since about GHD II have been pretty boring save a few memorable stretches. But even so, we're not rationalizing how bad it is now, that's just how it is. The last few years are how it's supposed to be. Unless you plan on moving (which you can't) or having a winter performance related stroke, you have to accept that. Hopefully one of these years we'll get something again.

I'm really not sure who's defending this winter. Every single snow lover on here that I can think of -even the ones that acknowledge that statistically, this winter outcome is completely within the normal envelope of possibilities- has admitted that this winter sucks balls. What I don't get is that the last like twelve times you've made this post, the exact same thing happens: a couple of people offer real, accurate, climatological data that clearly shows that we cannot expect wall-to-wall snowcover in our winters here. Is this winter really that horrendous? Of course it sucks, but is this winter such an incredible anomaly? Why is it that you relentlessly keep confusing your expectations based on a postcard Christmas with real climo? I can tell you right now that I love snow as much -if not more- than you do. But my brother, we do not live in Quebec.

That looks to it that suggests we'll need our sewing kits

I mentioned it in the other thread, but the 11th is my birthday. This one will be personal. Mama Nature will not let me down.

Honest to god I'd trade this winter for a real big dog a thousand times over

Flakes are around the same size, intensity is lower, but it's more persistent and colder I think so roads are actually white now.

It's whiter outside right now during this band than it was a day ago

Freezing rain here in se dupage rn

Returns over the border look good for someone

It's been on and off here... Mostly off the last two hours. Gonna have to hope that things really shape up farther south this evening or I won't be looking at much.

Just a bit too far south but we'll see what happens downstream I guess.

Oh well... I'm sure one day we'll get the goods again. Hopefully.

That's my birthday. Dibs.

I'll take barely as long as the south camp doesn't cave.

They're both trending south though right?

Visibility easily under an eighth of a mile at peak

This squall is without a doubt the event of the season so far.

Aren't the Canadians actually farther south?

That's the thing, my house is just about two miles south of 88. So if things stay as planned I can possibly scrape by with a decent event but there's not a whole lot of wiggle room.

Wish I were a little farther north but what can you do.

Your posts take me on more of an emotional roller coaster than the models do
