Great Snow 1717

You have been mentioning a pattern change since October lol...

What do you like about the current pattern?!??

95-96 incoming..

That should come as no surprise. There continues to be no sign of a cold/snowy pattern being established.

Feels like spring...

but they do get sucked in....as in sucked in to a massive blackhole lol

..but yet so many post snow maps from 5-7 days outs...might as well use a crystal ball to forecast..

Back in the day my economics professor said the same thing.

A massive pattern change BUT there are no signs of that occurring.

Monday is the dress rehearsal for 12/24 and/or 12/25..

Mouse will win ....

Agree

Agree regarding 95-96 being used as an analog...

Agree

Yes it was 1973 lol The Belmont was a thing of beauty The greatest horse of all time and it isn't even close.

76-77 was fantastic. I would sign up for a repeat of that winter

Someone would have to bound and gag me to get me to move to Florida...

Betting on warmth is like betting on Secretariat in 1973....

I mentioned that using analog years from 25-60 years ago is useless because of climate change but it got dismissed by the usual suspects. People who love cold/snowy weather will downplay most anything that doesn't give a signal of cold/snowy weather. I love a cold/snowy winter but I long ago accepted the reality of climate change.

As I mentioned in the November thread.....people are setting themselves up to be disappointed. The pattern the entire fall was awful heading into the winter season. Earlier in October there was some mention in the SNE subforum of 76-77 being a good analog year. I mentioned that I would not use 76-77 as an analog because of climate change. At no point did the fall of 2021 compare to the fall of 1976. I think the reason why so many winter forecasts fail is because the individuals only do a winter forecast but not a forecast for the other 3 seasons. It is sort of like beginning to watch a movie 3/4 of the way thru the movie and trying to determine what is taking place.

better than donating to Joe Bustardi...

Xander has a broad grin on his face....he will opt out after 2022

They will trade Crosby to Liverpool...
