Many live closer to those in NYC/NNJ those in NNE, so I'm not sure why some care that people technically outside our forum post in here.

not going to beat a dead horse, and I agree with you. but see my point #2 above.

Couple of buddies of mine have them with the Denali pkg and love them.

yeah, the Denali's are sweet, but at ~$15k above what I paid, ain't happenin' for me.

What is it you ragging on people not in your region posting in the NE subforum? Maybe we lurk and post because it is probably the best one to get weather knowledge.  Just accept it as a compliment to you guys.

1. many of their posts relate to their area specifically, yet they try to shoehorn it in. 2. they come in here and argue with each other and/or troll each other.

This does not apply to ALL out of area posters, just the few who fuck it up.

Down there in NYC ok.. not interior SNE

how about interior CNE? i average like 2" in Novie. most (~90%) are 0-2", and of course there are a couple outliers with a bigger storm, but those are few and far between. Novie is NOT a winter month.

I can't even stay awake for 65 straight hours, nevermind skiing for that long. f*** that!

I can never understand people from out of New England coming in here complaining about their winter. So odd 

that's my point. IDGAF if it rains, snows, or there is a meteor strike in NY/NJ. that these clowns continue to post in the NE subforum pretty much defeats the purpose of subforums. are the NE posters supposed to go to the NY NJ subforum and brag about having more snow? Last i knew that was frowned upon by the establishemnt.

I already have some of them on ignore, and the list is growing.

Only a completely different topic.....stepped outside this morning and heard a bird call and my first reaction was "that's a spring bird." I don't know bird calls, but thought it interesting that my brain's first reaction was spring to hearing this specific bird.

i heard the same thing yesterday morning and had the same thought-spring birds, whatever they are

when the headline is "xx city had the warmest month on record!!!"  that's the problem I am talking about because it is due to bad data

Need to get this to bomb out further north. That’s the only way to bring the dynamic snows up here. 

100% chance that little blue bullseye right over Taunton, MA verifies. 

calibrating an instrument that is used to measure to the tenths to +2/-2 is ridiculous. i know nothing about weather instruments, but know a little about scientific instruments, and can say for certain that that standard is just wrong. it should be like +0.5/-0.5 at worst.

not to mention how much a 2.0 degree error can skew the whole CC argument one way or the other.

This logic...

Then how do most areas in an around Presque isle have 20" or less on the ground?

Sublimation. Compaction. And much less so - melting. If it's not snowing, your pack is decreasing in size. Pretty simple. 

Anyway. Throw a ratio out there - it's a lot higher than 50%. 

dude-it has rained all the up through Pittsburg multiple times this season. they couldn't even open the snowmobile trails until late January (around the 20th) due to all the rain they got. i would say Pittsburg is prob around 50/50, and @dendrite is around 70/30 rain/snow for the season

low of -15 for a few hours early morning. all the way up to 0 now

-11 / -25

-6 / -20

WTF??  What a stupid statement. We haven’t had blocking in years here, and have had some monsters the last decade. 
 

Then this December we had monster blocking and got skunked. Lol. 

he is from Rockland County, whereever that is-not in NE. he knows not of which he speaks.

Yeah as much as I love outdoors/mountains/lakes/etc....being that far from civilization full time with small kids doesn't exactly give me the warm fuzzies.

What’s our February futility record?

technically i had 4" Feb 2012. BUT 3" fell on 2/29 (leap day) so it doesn't really count
