Take that to the bank.... blows all winter but it will nail this one

Nice 6-10” on the gfs for Thursday into Friday... guidance has had that on and off

Lol at the icon around hour 160. You’d think we were setting up to get smoked and the precip just hits a virtual wall at the Connecticut border. Classic winter 19-20

Yeah.... like I said yesterday, the majority of this winter has been an epic rat. Save for that rogue system the first few days of December. That event has accounted for most folks totals. also... that storm that produced 75% of everyone’s snow was like 8-9 weeks ago now.

Lol.... that gfs run was a clinic on how not to snow in SNE... unless you count anafraud snows.

That rogue storm the first day in December is probably saving this from being an all time rat. There has literally been almost no snow in parts of SNE since that event. 9 weeks of winter, next to nothing. Taking out that event, I’m not even sure I’ve scrapped together double digits here.

Yeah... it’s a shit look, no spin needed. Im actually almost glad we missed out on slop today. I’m so sick of a cruddy inch here and there over to glop. Sell that hard at this point in the winter.

Getting close to the time where you just have to call a spade a spade. Looks like dog shit for the next couple of weeks anyway.... and then we are knocking on the door of March

Doesn’t look very exciting in the near future anyway. Lots of the same varying degrees of suck basically.

Question for the car folks out there. On the truck I just bought I just noticed when the cabin lights are on (when it’s dark) the A/C button light flickers constantly. Is it a bulb, or something else?

Pretty much, you can only polish a turd so much

Been trying to get registration and inspection and all that stuff squared away... looking at the 12z gfs... fun run if you like tons of rain every 3 days or so

These warranties also cover a bunch of stuff that your insurance policy covers, so you’d basically be paying twice for the same thing. They wanted like 1200 bucks for glass replacement with no deductible. I have that coverage on my insurance policy and I don’t think it adds up to that much money. I think that is a pretty standard coverage for most insurance in mass too, so I can’t imagine why’d you’d need to buy that.

Yeah, not surprising. I think they make most of their money from add ons, fees, and selling warranty policies. I got a bunch of horror stories about this that and the other thing from the guy. I felt like saying, if this is all true, you should probably start selling better cars.

Yeah, my last vehicle I purchased a warranty, I was kind of inexperienced and the whole process seemed to be rushing along and I thought I really needed it. Cost me like 3000 and I never used it, not once, before it expired. I said no to everything on this one. It’s certified pre owned and I have like 40+k left on the power train plus some additional warranties that come with a gmc certified pre owned. It isn’t worth it. Not sure how reputable a number this is, but I’ve seen after doing some research that those finance folks can take anywhere from 25 to 50! Percent of the cost of the warranty home. That shows you how useless they are, half the cost is just a commission basically. He was pretty bad at hiding the fact that he wasn’t happy

Buying a car is still kind of the worst though. Although, this experience wasn’t as bad as others. was able to get money off the price and more for my trade with some negotiation... mostly done online. Finance guy was kind of a dink after I declined all warranties they offer, (which were like half the price of the truck in some instances). My guess is a lot of the money he makes is tied to that

Thanks. Yeah I’ve already checked comps and looked at trade in values and private sale stuff. The price actually isn’t far off.... I’ve found they are too high by about a thousand dollars. The truck was actually listed for like 600-700$ less but has since gone up, which I’m curious about and waiting to hear back on

Yeah... pretty much what Ginx said.... need it for my house. I was using my dads but he is getting rid of his, so I want my own. I do way to much around the house with the landscape and stuff not to have something.

I’m looking to trade in my car for a truck... any advice on brands, etc?

I am confident in saying we’ll never see that combination of snow and cold ever again. What a month.... arctic circle comes to se mass

Damn Kobe

Deer everywhere around here. Have had a few close calls myself but went to get dinner with my wife and sister and law tonight and On our way home we smashed into one... broke both of its back legs. Sad, but completely unavoidable. Police came and the plan was to put it down.

Getting warning snows from a squall lol.... that is probably a once in a lifetime event there
