  1. I've posted on here in previous years and people weenie me but....my Weatherbug app is consistently more accurate than whatever the models are showing for the 10-day forecast for my house when it comes to predicting (lack of) cold. .I know these apps just somehow automatically take in model data, but whatever they use and however they massage it is definitely more accurate than reading the GFS or Euro verbatim in the 10-day range.
  2. We used to play golf on the moon 50yrs ago but nowadays our unmanned probes just tip over when they land. In the heady days of 2002 it was easy to believe computers in the 2020s we're going to be more HAL-9000 than tik-tok and Robinhood. Predictions are hard, especially about the future.
  3. No way. Last winter was obvious it was not going to snow so expectations were low and the winter delivered on that. This winter was hyped up to no end even up til just a week or two ago and all I got was one storm that put down 1.5" and another that literally accumulated and melted all during my morning time on the toilet.
  4. It can't be any worse than this winter was. So at least there's that.
  5. The Maryland border would be a weird demarcation line to try to predict snow off. Just for the stupidity of that boundary he should be discounted.
  6. Everybody seems to be really be piling into the idea that the next couple winters are going to be pretty crappy. Given the (in)accuracy of the LR thread and people predicting epic cold as of late I would take this as a positive sign that we will surprise to the upside next winter. When JB finally throws in the towel and issues a blowtorch forecast for next winter then we can be assured of Nina snows. And maybe that one really handsome twitter Met too. He wasn't much use either.
  7. All the professional Mets will agree that's a classic Sistene Chapel look. Spray all your snow shovels with Pam to get ready for it.
  8. I thought I heard the bat siren going off....you rang?
  9. It's a verifiable fact that March is the worst month of the year around here. Bright sunshine but cold temps with that seemingly never ending biting wind. And then there are the days where DC is warm and 70F but it's 50F and overcast here next to the bay with an onshore breeze.
  10. Might as well move back to Calvert. We.dont get any snow anymore so just go in expecting that and it's all good. Just take up winter kayaking and there are all sorts of outdoor activities all winter long.
  11. It was too warm for a snowstorm in mid-February, but don't worry...it'll definitely be cold enough in the second half of March!
