The "Money Look" seems like a complicated setup from your diagrams, no wonder it is on the rarer side. That aside, many if not most of our big dumpers tend to slow down as they are climbing up the eastern seaboard. What is that attributed to? What prevents them from hauling ass into that large elongated area of low pressure stretched across the northern atlantic?

The grocery industry is being destroyed by the yuppies who frequent Wegmans and Whole Foods. You're seeing food deserts now emerge in a lot of rural and urban low income areas alike. I always hoped, growing up, the future would be good, instead it's a dumpster fire of warm winters and expensive crapola.
Shoppers in Westminster is the grocery store I frequent the most. I hope it is not on the chopping block.

Pileated Woodpecker. Closest thing IMO to the extinct Ivory-Billed Woodpecker. Image doesn't show just how large this bird is.

I’m ok with snow on Monday if it wants. FedEx delivered the BIG package today instead of Monday so I’m good.

And therein lie the crux of snow life in the Mid-Atlantic...Yes, the way we can sometimes go 50 shades of bust can be frustrating and outright gut-wrenching. And yet...does that actually make the snow even sweeter when it hits? Would we feel the same way if we got snow all the time?....I've always wondered how I'd react to getting an average of 70-100"+ every year, lol I'm not entirely sure! It's just different when it happens down here...
I wouldn't like it if that was the norm for my area. I don't have the longest driveway but it is long enough. I would no longer be looking forward to winter as autumn is winding down especially as I grow older. Instead I would somewhat be dreading the onslaught of snow each year and be looking forward to an early spring (March be damned ha ha). I like the 3 feet that I average in my location annually. It is enough to satisfy most years and I can expect to get a decent sized storm every winter >6". Sure beats the sheer frustration I had all the years living in Baltimore (sorry dude, you really need to move). I have only been overwhelmed by winter 2 times since moving here. My first winter in Westminster was the infamous ice winter 93/94. By the end of January I was starting to wonder if I had made a mistake coming here it was that horrendous at times plus the cold was intense for a while and my heatpump wasn't the best. The second time was after the blizzard twins of Feb 2010. I didn't hate it mind you but I was overwhelmed by the 50+ inches of snow on the ground. I had to call in a contractor to dig me out for the first and only time in my life . So I do believe there can be too much of a good thing regarding snow. I might consider a snowier locale if I ever move into a community where all of the snow removal is done by others but that is not happening anytime soon.
