  1. Definitely a hall of fame move wangling out of thanksgiving.
  2. Cold pattern, warm and dry pattern, stein, stormy, all on the same page of posts. I'm glad I finally grew up once I hit age 75+. Looking forward to a pleasant thanksgiving dinner with family in Houston, TX. I'll pay close attention 12/1 and beyond and given climo, 12/10 and later is most likely although we may have a few shots beyond 12/1 before 12/10.
  3. Latitude won’t hurt but that oceans edge location probably won’t help.
  4. The market for gas snowblowers now make them a bargain. I bought a nice Ariens 2 years ago mainly because it was way less expensive vs 2 years prior. But rechargeable battery operated with charge batteries in reserve is definitley the way to go. I may try to sell my Ariens after the season and get a comparable rechargeable for future years
  5. Yes-at least for a spell. I like frequent melt downs which is almost a guarantee. Snow isn’t as much fun when you’re old.
  6. A dank chilly day this time of the year is perfect as we take our final steps to winter in the next 2 weeks. We never really got there the past 2 years….
  7. I’m begging for a whiff. I really want to get home on time from IAH Friday.
  8. I bought a gallon of stabilized gas for the snowblower Thursday night. I’m gonna top it off before we leave for IAH Monday and then hope for minimal delays returning home Friday. I ruined 2 winters ago by buying it in December in the first place and hopefully not ruining this one by being prepared….
  9. I think you want some big ones before your move to DC as Trump’s postmaster general.
  10. The thing about the pattern breaking down sometime in December should be the understanding that we almost never go wire to wire this early.
  11. Don’t worry Popala, there will be others sometime in the future….
  12. December but both were cold winters with January 2004 frigid! December featured a relaxed pattern but a rather stormy period around the holidays in 2002. The 2003 December storm was bigger but my recollection is the rest of the month was not so great. We then had suppression for the heart of winter but you may have done ok south of the pike in CT. NYC cleaned up in 2003-04.
  13. Both actually but 2003 was really cold with a lot more snow
  14. For this part of the world, this dry period has rivaled the drought of the early 60s that tamarack alludes to. However, in my years of living in southern California, this is nothing. One year when I was living there (1976-91) the city of LA went 7 months without a trace of rain.
  15. I am adverse to weekends but will consider it depending on when.
  16. I actually didn’t mind 2001-02. You knew winter was cooked very quickly so it was kind of relaxing.
  17. December for now looks promising to start. I wouldn't expect BIG snow in sne before 10 days in but the players per the ensemble products appear to be heading into position.
  18. People blowing loads too early. Pace yourselves! We’re heading to IAH for thanksgiving-I’ll pay attention upon our return on 11/29.
