  1. I like when a storm transforms the landscape. So when we have nothing but brown and gray ground, and suddenly a storm comes in and drops 6 inches, it looks amazing out in short order. So I don’t need pack. It makes a 6 inch storm more exciting when there is nothing on the ground vs. when you already have a few inches down. I’ll take it, but I don't need it. Level 99 big dogs are awesome of course, but honestly one or 2 days later when the snow has blown off the trees and the streets are cleared and black (or white with salt), I don’t care about the snow storm anymore. The model watching is over, the radar watching is over, the nowcasting is over, the snow falling is over, the HWO and warnings are off…Its like all the fun party guests left already. Now, the snowpack guy can stay as long as he wants, but, you know, its just him now.
  2. Doesn’t look too convincing either way. I don’t look at those and sharpen my snow shovels.
  3. Losing Aaron Rodgers on the first series is the most Jets thing ever. And losing to the Jets with no Rodgers is the most Bills thing ever.
  4. Sandy was well modeled 8 days out, never mind hinted at!
  5. Snow in Idaho! Brrrrr indeed!
  6. I think 30 years is good for weather norms. Thats a generation or so. What people lived through and experienced in their memory vs. whats happening today. So this summer isn’t really anomalous. A tad cool, but not anomalous. Going back 100 years isn't practical for the average joe planning a picnic or a farmer putting in alfalfa. For Climate norms, we need to go back 10,000 years. Or more. JMHO. Figure out what ended that last ice age and then why the Holocene has been relatively warm since the last ice age, and relatively stable compared to the Pleistocene , and why sea levels have risen for the last 4000 years. Its not exactly geologic pace, but the climate over the last 14,000 years has been insane to the point where there actually are massive geologic features all over the place on account of an abrupt climate change that melted the ice sheet. Its been busy around here…relativity speaking.
  7. Met summer is going to turn out to be, what, like -.5 or something?
  8. Those high DPS in January did us in last year
  9. Only if there is an emergency landing situation.
  10. A frontal system will affect the area with the potential for strong to severe thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon and night. The main threat is for damaging wind gusts and large hail. However, a brief tornado is possible, and mainly north and west of NYC. The Storm Prediction Center has placed most of the Tri-State Area under a Slight Risk (isolated to scattered) for severe weather. In addition, the Weather Prediction Center has placed the area in a moderate to slight risk for excessive rainfall with a low risk of flash flooding anticipated this afternoon and night. yay.
  11. My summer ends around dec. 11. Starts up again around 12/24, then ends again around jan 4, then return for Feb, and then winter comes back march 20 through may 1, then summer fires back up may 30.
  12. I am starting to look forward to winter.
  13. We need a good winter. Many spirits are broken around here today. I sold my sleds last winter and the shiz winter was a lot easier to take mentally, so for me the hobby is just the snow storms and whats otg. Sill sucked this year but I was less invested. If we can get some baraclonicity this winter from warm coastal waters maybe something will pop a couple times. Not sure if there is evidence there is a meaningful impact from it.
  14. And that is how you spell an anomaly, which a top ten cold month is.
