    I don’t mean to be a pretentious ass, but I’ve read “Sam hell” on these forums 50 times over the years, but there is no such expression. It’s Sam Hill. Sorry.

    We take and twist to our own language. Sorry.

    Man 18z Euro get us all white for Christmas

    Part of me is wondering if there is some scaling back in that regard due to climo. I agree that we certainly may end up below average as a whole, but unless we get some persistent HP to our north...we are going to be caked into a southwesterly surface flow. But the boundary is going to be very close by. It really can go either way 

    Actually its flow out of Eastern Canada

    As a caregiver for a dementia patient  believe me i know memories are the first to be distorted or altered.  

    The point is whenever I see people discussing '96 or '15 I don't even  have to look at the models to know that things probably aren't going well in terms of snow.

    I teach acquired brain injury clients on regaining basic life skills so we are cut from the same cloth. Nah we always have the memories thrown in conversation usually waiting for the next model run. Thank you for what you do both my parents died with dementia.  Toughest times of my life. At any rate modeling isn't terrible at all smoothed out.

    Not sure what got into the 12z guidance, but vomit worthy today. Hope that changes. 

    Still amazing how modeling keeps us 4 to 5 degrees BN with above normal heights in the extended.  Strong signal for volatility. Peeps living and dying each op run are going to go crazy with a pattern like this. Oscillation city

    All the events we had during the epic stretch were cold events. Blue hill shines in the marginal events where that 630’ elevation really helps them stand out. 

    The two events that really stood out to me were the longer duration event and the event during Valentine’s Day and the day after. But I was most surprised at the long duration event. They were removed from the heaviest echoes for awhile and had close to what I had. I find that hard to believe. There was no physical reason for them to have more. This isn’t an upslope deal either. Also heard from a former observer that they have peculiar ways of measuring because of wind and throws a little uncertainty…..but naturally I get that because I have wind issues too. But to have almost 25” more than I had does not make sense to me. 
    In a winter like that the error bars are fairly high so like I said….whatever….but as someone who feels like they can sniff out oddities…that one surprised me.

    Do you smell what the Euro is cooking?

    Pretty sure he suggested I’m canceling winter which is quite the contrary. It’s long and unrelenting and will be here until April…and I dread it.

    Here’s the cliff notes for trying to mentally decipher my posts….

    • The only things I care about in winter are my chickens, plants, and energy bill. I’m no longer ACATT. 
    • I wish winter was shorter
    • I want at least 6” of pack (10” is better) throughout the portion of the season when single digits or colder are common
    • I will always enjoy a good snowstorm
    • I can do without below 0F temps
    • Yet I still enjoy the week of peak deepest winter that we get
    • I do not cancel winter before March 
    • Despite what weather I wish for I always try to be a realist here
    • I like to troll 
    • 76% of my posts contain some level of sarcasm and the other 24% usually aren’t serious

    Ditto
