Its a Breeze

Can't we just stick to talking about Feb., our snowiest month, and the fact we have something to track for the next 6 hours Also, we didn't agree to a name of the thread yet, I don't think. Please :begging emoji:

Only for context. And no, it doesn't make anyone (who loves snow) feel good. We've been trying to compare what we feel is anomalous to the norm, when it's quite possibly the opposite in the grand scheme of things. "it was not suppose to be warm hundreds of years ago because we didnt have planes,cars and trains polluting the atmosphere." And that's the thing. If we're looking in that long term context, then....it WAS supposed to be warmer. This still is pretty much the coldest the earth has ever been. Cold isn't the "normal", warm is...in that context.

As such, what you are conveying is that there is still a positive probable outcome?

.5"!! And it looks like winter! This is a win

Hedging my bets on the NAVGEM. Snow is going to last until tomorrow afternoon.

Revenge of the TPV

Wow Just rub it in our face....

Honey I shrunk the PAC

I mean, aren't we still technically still recovering from the last ice age? What if...snowy periods are the anomaly. Aren't we on basically the same latitude as places like Sacramento, Lisbon, Athens?

Going to be making snow angels with my inch and laughing at everyone else complaining how it's never going to snow again With the way this year is setting up, this event is basically the equivalent of Dec 2018 or Jan 2022. If climate change is pushing the snow further south, then bring it on!!

Bumping. We have the very real potential of accumulating snow in the SHORT term. This'll be the thread for another potential win for the S&E folks this week, since...no one else cares

yes it is

The dreariness feels like it, but no. Not sure if you are counting October, but October started well above average, only to end up close to an inch below average. November was slightly below average, December was slightly above, and so far in January we're well below average.

Plus, we can stop the embarrassing tributes, have a true rebrand - name change and all, and just have people here who know what they're doing. It's not too much to ask for

The 2013/14 season was pretty close (since 2011.) One of the only times, I came close to "Ok, that's enough already"

Also to play advocate (and to make it abundantly clear, I am in no way saying climate change isn't real) but you don't even have to go back any additional years. You can make the case this "bad cycle" is location dependent. For the folks DCA south at least, half of the past 10 years have been at or above normal with no consistency on the below normal years... Average departure from normal in below avg. years: -8.56" Average departure from normal in above avg. years: 8.65" (also has anyone brought up that we've been stuck in La Nina for like 7 years now?)

His original? Because.....

More fun than not looking for a storm 10-14 days out *shrugs*

GFS loses the hurricane, but has four cutters in four days. Can't wait for tomorrow...

Friendly reminder that for a good chunk (majority? no?) of the region, LAST YEAR was at or above normal. As was half of the past 10 years... Edit: That being said, unless we get a one and done or spring snow, this year is kaput...

The last time we had a winter tropical storm transfer it's energy to a runner was..........?

Not in officially because this feels like one of those stupid years where it doesn't snow in the Jan or Feb but it stupidly snows in March or April when no one wants it to. So stupid.

If it wasn't for the ownership mess, he would almost certainly be in danger of losing his job. I do however see next season playing out as a carbon copy of 1999 - 1) New owner 2) Talented roster with us picking up the one or two pieces missing for a successful campaign (QB, O-line) 3) Coach with only mediocre success to date. Has success. Saves his job for another year.

What trend?

CMC is cold to end vice cold to start this run. Not sure what everyone is worried about. All of this is excellent progress. Yesterday, worried about it cutting and cold air. Today just worried about cold air. Tomorrow, no worries! Right?
