Getting back to the euro vis a vis January 2015.   I remember guidance kind of hinted at a DC storm about 5-6 days out and scooter through his famous tantrum.   I was on a work  trip in Pittsburgh and was enjoying the 1” they had on the ground thinking it was nice to see snow again.  This was a Friday and I returned home that night with a progged slop storm coming Saturday.  I wake up Saturday and checked the overnight euro and see the hook and a snow pummeling coming in 60 hours-with no other guidance on board.  The slop system over performed and 2 days later we were off to the races.  How long must we pay for that?

I'd like a repeat.

I keep thinking that it can't get any worse and then....it does.  I'm not sure what to even hope for anymore....I've been fuc(ed in every position under the sun with every index mode and ENSO phase known to man, and have rolled snake-eyes.....phase 1, 2, 3 5, 7, 8....fu(k 'em all because there isn't shit that will make it snow in Methuen. You just need to resign yourself to being perpetually tea bagged by Mother Nature or find a new hobby....I don't know, what the hell...I'll start collecting fu(king stamps or some shit.

It isn't just Methuen.

Wouldn't that be a riot

How much longer is this going to last for you guys? How much you have now since it started?

Even if it’s 1-3”. That’s great. Just to get winter look . So we don’t get a big boy . Snow is snow 

With still time for a big one.

If we can drop that further west we probably can entertain a 2-4/3-6 event from nyc to Bos. 
 

so frustrating to see areas of Tx-Tenn-Kentucky-Va about to double our seasonal snowfall 

Didn't they just get over a storm the other day? There's going to be some areas that get hit decently from both storms.

Phew, I was worried I wouldn't lose to Atlantic City again.

Reminiscent of 2010, my cousin in Atlantic City had more big storms than we got.

It doesn't look bad at all so far

Looks very similar to the last run. I've been toggling back and forth. Not better though.

I think it’s unlikely.  If we’re getting that much bigger totals are on the table.  And the Euro called me yesterday and asked why Kevin said poor euro…

I guess we still have to give the Euro it's due for these big storms.

Mine is 6 now and I’m already trying to mentally prepare myself for the fact that he won’t always be there with me. I can’t imagine, but soon enough I’ll be faced with that.

You have a lot of time left, don't even let that enter your thoughts now and enjoy your time with him.

I was going to say that it looks like white ash, but wanted to wait to see @tamaracks answer in case I was wrong. those trees are toast. you will see some leaves next year, but will be mostly bare. Cut them down before they become a hazard. I had a dead one standing in my woods for the last couple of years, it finally came down in the wind the other day.

the only way to stave off the ash borer beetle is preventative treatment before they invade. you are several years too late. 

I have two dead ones standing and took 7-8 down within the last few years and burned them in my wood stove. I'd like to take the last two down for firewood, but my left shoulder is messed up and I need a shoulder replacement.

2 miles from the water, several beaches' minutes away and I'll be closer to the mountains.

Solid cutter at the climo coldest date. Best winter ever rolls on.

Still time for that one to get in a better position or maybe even disappear.

My yellow is legit my best friend

Had to take 3 days off from work when I lost her, tough time but a good 11 years with her.

Most all labs are great dogs. Rare to get a bad one.

I had two, miss those dogs terribly, when in Maine I'll probably get another one.

you moving up here?

Yes, building a house in Cape Neddick, going up Friday to pick out the finishing touches on the house so they can start it as soon as Spring comes. Hope to be in it by the Summer.

That’s why a small smidge of difference is enormous.  Got 2 days till any phasing, and 4 to go time.  Crazier Shit has happened before.  

I don't give up until we get closer to storm time. The back and forth waffling on this board the last couple days is kind of funny. I know it's a lower percentage chance but there's still a chance.

why not go on demand gas boiler?

That's what I'm putting in my house in Maine, also have mini-splits too.

I think we are on the 7th or 8th day in a row of snow up here.  The northern spine has been getting lit up.  Even here its been snowing daily, just in really small amounts.  I think I was at 4" for the period before today and it looks like we have gotten another inch or so over night.

I see that on radar, Montreal area and your area is getting constant steady snow, should pile up nice the next few days.

We've got woodpeckers galore here so I can definitely see that.  Is there anything that can be done do stave off the emerald ash beetle if that is the cause?  Thank you for the feedback and insight, I appreciate it!

Nope, too late, its firewood now, good firewood too, call Ken, he can cut it up for you.

I do too, but we’ve all been porked enough the better part of a decade to be cautious until we’re actually measuring 

I understand the trepidation, I have some too but Rays on board, always a good sign.

Even though I’m bullish, I totally agree with having some apprehension given how sensitive the setup is. It’s big boom or big bust imo. I think public facing communication should remain conservative as a result, at least for now.

Although I think it’s less likely now that we’re 24h closer, there’s certainly the risk that this trend broadly backslides, which is an especially pronounced risk here because of the sensitivity to the ridge and actual phase. 

I think we're way overdo and this one's ours.

To phase or NOT to phase, that is the question. I'll always choose phase. MODEL DEJUR.
I guess we'll all go for a phase! 

 

Lets all drink to the phase!

Yeah Westborough was just about ground zero on that run. But being on the coast of Maine will def give better wind. 

I'll be up in Maine Fri-Sat, may stay Sat night if it's going to get a good hit, winds always better on the Main Coast than here.

If that's in the cards come Friday, I'll be cancelling my event and heading up to Pit2.  Give me a little wind with my snow.

Wouldn't you better off at Pit 1?
