That is the way I look at it. Personally I hate the look of min splits. -

Winter 2022-2023 Promises Plenty of Mid Season Mayhem

I had exceedingly low expectations going into the winter so it wasn't unfulfilling to me. It met my expectations. -

Uhmm did you not read the part about well above normal temps??? Both below normal snowfall and well above normal temps were the 2 major contributors to my grading the winter as an F-. -

Winter 2022-2023 Promises Plenty of Mid Season Mayhem
Great Snow 1717 replied to 40/70 Benchmark's topic in New England
Nearly every forecast for the winter of 22-23 failed miserably. Raindance had a great handle on the winter. He has 3 things going for him. He doesn't live anywhere close to SNE, and he isn't biased towards cold and snow, and he doesn't over analyze the situation. The Pope also had a great handle on the winter. Some people ridiculed him for his thoughts and opinions but he was right far more often than he was wrong. Every forecast that called for some combination of average/below average temps and average to above average snowfall deserves an F- grade. And there are many forecasts that deserve a grade of F- because essentially it was a non winter. Here in Methuen I give the winter an F- grade...well below normal snowfall and well above average temps. I think I wore a winter coat on perhaps 8 or 9 days the entire winter. Often times when it was snowing the snow was already in the process of melting. The warm ground limited accumulations and the time snow remained on the ground. The downplaying of a 3rd year La Nina and the warmth in November led to many forecasts going bust. The warmth in November was a harbinger of things to come. -
This is how your electricity provider thinks of you..

Essentially the same here in Methuen...a dismal winter.

Squirrels were very active in Methuen all winter long. I have 2 squirrels that demand the bird feeders get filled.

38 and rain in the winter wonderland known as Methuen...had a bit of snow and sleet earlier but no accumulation... greatest winter ever ..
-
The easiest winter ever!....every winter forecast that predicted some combination of below normal/normal temp and above normal/normal snowfall is an epic fail.

Mark Margavage's Weather Discussion Page 29 Julai 2022 · Winter is Coming (whether you like it or not) I’ve identified a data point for the upcoming winter forecast… As I watch the tropics for development, it has come to my attention that 4 times in past 30 years has the Atlantic had no named storm activity between July 3rd and August 3rd: 1993, 1999, 2000 and 2009. Given the huge amount of Saharan Dust that has been blown over the Atlantic(seen on satellite imagery), it seems extremely unlikely that anything will develop over the next several days. So, assuming no storms develop, we can use past years as an indicator for how the Winter might turn out. Think back to 1993-1994, 1999-2000, 2000-2001, and 2009-2010. How do you remember those winters? ~Meteorologist Mark Margavage
