Even good winters end like this these days. Look at last year.
Also, it’s too late to salvage February. The end of the month is already almost in GFS/GEFS range without many signs of the torch letting up significantly after it arrives next week.
To an extent I agree. What looked like a promising stretch in February now looks like a shutout pattern.
It’s more the idea that lately, spring here seems to come before the end of February more often than it doesn’t. The February heatwave of 2017 comes to mind, but I’d say even last year we were into spring starting the last week of February, and that was in a good February.
It was less snow for people to be too lazy to shovel off of their sidewalks, walkways, outdoor steps, etc., which made life infinitely easier for some friends of mine who are gig economy workers, if that’s a silver lining.
Euro is trending toward one of our famous February heatwaves for the second half of next week. Verbatim it’s temps in the 60s and dewpoints pushing 60.
This is the complaint thread. I could see February going either way, but it’s been such a warm month in recent years that the warm trend on the models has me skittish.
I would think he’s saying his 7” fell in more than 12 hours, so he didn’t get 6” in any 12 hour period or 8” in any 24 hour period. I don’t like his argument but I know what he’s saying.
I didn’t figure you were begrudging anyone. And that 5% of your workforce comment speaks volumes about the “grass is greener” mentality - in many cases it isn’t.
To be fair, the pros/cons of staying with a company for 25-30 years now probably aren’t as favorable as they were 25-30 years ago. But of course we also have the internet where you can find all sorts of jobs where the grass is (allegedly) greener at the click of a button.
The good news is that neither of our warnings this year were downgraded to advisories and both met warning criteria for snow or ice in most locations outside of KPITSnow’s backyard.
