    That' still okay but, meteorology doesn't just cover what people want... ?  That's what makes the contribution in here dubious to the extend of egregious to be involved in at time - it's just a special interest group that happens to be fixated (regardless of psycho-babble cause) on a narrow aspect that happens to be proximal to weather. 

    That's the annoying rub for objective unbiased weather enthusiast. 

    To each is own I suppose but even our 92 heat waves and CB formations and so forth is fine for entertaining value to me as a Met that appreciates "weather"

    lol you never "get it"

    Summer is right up there with winter to me-love it!   Fall and spring blow particularly spring.

    IDK they all are great some days, I mean a 65 degree May day with full bloom, how can that suck, the same with fall with full colors. The best part of NE is like what happened this weekend, you literally could be in 90 degree heat and then skiing in superb snow within hours. In the summer you can be sitting inside AC while its 100 degrees and then in an hour be in the  70s swimming at the beach with cool refreshing breezes. All seasons have their dark days of 40 to 50 degree raw rains but all seasons can be absolutely spectacular. The  Chamber of Commerce is proud.

    What a torch shaping up for Easter. Seems like every Easter has been cold in recent memory. 80's will be nice 

    Hams cooking on driveways. 

    dont forget Easter was March 27th last year

  4. What a storm that was. I would've given anything to have been back home in Hamden for that one. It was awesome in Boston, too, but my mother called excitedly during that mega band to say it was hailing and she couldn't even see across the street. I told her it was called sleet, but apparently she was actually technically correct haha. Wish she'd measured the snowfall rate. Bet it was 4-5"/hr. And who could forget that NAM run that popped like 60"+ accumulations? Ah, memories.

    It's been an amazing few years in the storm department. I never thought I'd see a period like late December '10 through January '11 again. I mean, Boxing Day, 9" norlun, two feet on Jan 12th, and 15" Jan 27 is tough to beat. And who could imagine that we'd have Feb '13, the crazy March '13 firehose, the frigid zero degree storms of '14 and the endless paradisiacal glory that was late January through mid-Feb '15? I've actually lost track of how many 12"+ snows I've seen over the last five years. Last winter sort of became a blur with the mega-SWFE and the 100 hour thing and the ocean effect enhancement and mood flakes every day. Glory days, no question.

    lifetime achievement award

    When are you ever down on a possible snowstorm?

    I just read that entire Jan thread, wow on the Debras in that thread. In fact you said the same thing Jan 10 th when we started seeing strong signals for something to pop. Many doubters few believed,grasshoppers with patience were.
