Don't most people with trucks keep at least a small toolbox with them.

I keep a large toolbox with me at all times.

It looks like there’s a bunch of different ways next week turns into a powder fest. Going to be a nice base heading into April. Superstar was as high as I’ve ever seen it Monday with the piles well above the lift in a bunch of places.

Do they still do the June 1st thing?  I went and did that in college as a one-time bucket list.  Slept in my buddies Isuzu trooper, which was a poor night sleep, but a great truck.  

Autos contribute about 10% of CO2 emissions.  The big killer has always been fossil fueled electric generation which to me has a certain irony to it.  Interestingly, China builds a half dozen or more coal fired electric plants each year.  They also like hydro - much to the dismay of their often water starved neighbors.  We need to go on the Chinese weather forums and complain there if we want to do any good.  I’m sure Ji will get on board.  

on the weather front, these cold rainers…can we get a cutter please?  There’s never one around when you need it.  And when we don’t want them it is the only guest to show up to the party.  
 

PS I have a ram 2500.  Love it.

We need the PAC to change for what? Lol winter’s done. We’re out of time, the clock ran out, game over. We’re already into meteorological spring, been in solar spring since February, daylight savings time in effect and astronomical spring starts Tuesday

So we got solar spring, met spring and real spring?

Good

Never give up, Anthony.  Honestly if you ever did quit on cold and snow, I would call emergency services for a welfare check to see what happened to you.

Let's punt that look to December 2024 and get the season off on the right foot.

It can hardly be worse.  Worse could be less snow and cold sure - but maybe more mild days to open the windows and go for a walk in a t shirt.  It could only worse to a point, and then some positives develop with warmth.  
Lets see if we can mean revert a bit and get a normal winter in 25.

Heavy heavy moss from anti stein last year. Got to kill that off now. 

Yeah I have had a moss explosion on my north facing hill and shaded areas.  I thought moss was slow lol.  I have a significant gravel patch, like a Japanese-style garden and the moss is coming up through the stones.  Kill it now you say?  Chemicals or something?

Soda Springs, CA. Add up dem totals, lol.

I can't even do that much math but that's like up to 16' of snow.  We need an astro physics person to add that up.

I do like the NAO and AO going negative  .

 

The problem is that there is no cold air in Canada.

After this Winter they should make you a mod and slap a met tag on you.

Yeah I know, haha. It always bothered me in the movie when Morgan Freeman's character calls 500 yards just shy of a half mile when it really is only 60 yards longer than a quarter mile.

I’m sure it felt like a half mile.

Holy shit a weather post in this thread! I thought I’d never see one again.

Explains why their snow measurements were so wrong.  Everyone knows Chesapeake cant’t measure anything, much less snow!

Yikes.  Hope you have scratchers.

Man my 1200 needed scratchers almost no matter what.  Probably one reason that engine is gone.
