    There are only so many ways you can say that DC sucks for snow and it takes a special seasonal setup to get good a truly good winter. We all know it, but there's just always so much hand-wringing and focusing on the negative. I'm not suggesting it should be ignored and not discussed, but it's just constant negativity nowadays.

    I truly despise this place sometimes.

    Because...EJ.

    Please don't keep doing this all winter (by the way, it's still early-fall, in case you haven't noticed).

    Yup. Shelf turd for quite a few months after release, but then it gets a little harder to find. I always kick myself for not getting more when its around because I start jonesing for it once fall hits.

    I need to stock up on BCBS this year. Beer geeks sh*t on them because the "sold out" to Goose Island, but it's simply one of the best and most reliable BA stouts around. My best friend has a huge stash of BA beers (including BCBS) that he needs to offload due to not being able to drink much anymore. He reached out and asked if I want a bunch of them...definitely need to take him up on the offer.

    I've never been to a funeral at which they play MIDI files, but I guess it happens.

    Right? That's how I felt. It was barely noticeable for a few hours and then it came pouring back. Eventually came back to what I would consider 100% after maybe a week or so.

    Yup. I don't need big blocking. Just get me some cold air delivery and I'll be happy with a fast-moving system that throws precip over that cold. I think I see a hint of split flow on that EPS image, as well.

    Haha...awesome! What's crazy is that I was thinking about how you were doing just earlier today and was going to ask!

    Big volcano down there. Edit: I'm still in shock that my Dad sent me a text last year about underwater volcanoes adding all that heat to the oceans.

    Could put it in the "green stuff" thread. I don't mind!

    Stop it. Seriously.

    I'm honestly in no rush to bring cold weather in - never have been and never will be. On December 1, my feelings change and I'm ready to roll (or at least ready to start seeing wintry weather on the horizon), but before that I don't get worked up about the weather on any given day.

    I have to ask...why do you think that other than to gird yourself against potential disappointment?

    Absolutely glorious weekend. Seems like most weekends recently weren’t ideal for the annual War of the Leaves, but after a huge leaf drop early this past week this weekend has been ideal for it.

    ^ Yeah…Jan-Feb look really nice there. Based those maps, I’d love an early-December torch that ends with some chill and precip leading into a rocking early January followed by a late-month thaw and killer February.

    Ugh. Just keep trying various foods and drinks and one day you’ll start sensing something and it should start coming back fairly quickly. For me, it took another week or so after I could definitely taste/smell in detail until I felt everything was back to normal.

    But it's not. The same general idea is there, which is what you should expect from a climate model.

    Seems we didn't go too low, either. I don't have obs from before I woke up, but I saw 34 on wunderground at 6:30 and then 33 at 7:00. We usually radiate OK, but I'm not sure if it was colder than that earlier in the day...though it was really damn frosty out there!

    It's a damn good song. Some of Lennon's later stuff was absolutely fantastic, and I think we're so lucky that Paul and Ringo got to sink their teeth into it. Really poignant song, as well. I heard they also used some backing vocals from a few other Beatles songs and that Paul may have played slide guitar on it.

    The post-super Nino era hasn't been kind to us: Nina Nina Nino Neutral Nina Nina Nina Obviously there's ore to it than that, but that ENSO stretch isn't helpful to our snow chances. A strong basin-wide Nino should help alleviate that it his year.

    Agreed with the comments about it being very easy to digest. Really well researched and written!

    I'm thinking a little higher than normal, if only because of the greater chance of a nice event or two given all the factors at play. I'd love to be wrong and have multiple shots during a pretty cold Nino winter, but I can't let myself go there.
