  1. I loathe early mornings, but one of my favorite things to do is capture a snow or ice event at sunrise or sunset. There is something spectacular about the quiet and lighting at a low sun angle.
  2. Visually, it’s right up there with a paste event. This is from a few years ago I believe:
  3. I’m sure that’s the case for some, but for others like myself I’m not a conditional winter wx lover. Yes, ice isn’t the best, but it’s wx that’s unique to the season so I won’t turn my nose at a pelt fest if it happens. Same with cold with brown grass. I also find the fascinating that so many posters carry this inconsistent attitude of loathing some damaging and life threatening wx when we all know virtually every one of us here wouldn’t bat an eye at pulling for a 40” blizzard when the result would almost certainly be people being injured or worse as a direct or indirect result of such an event.
  4. Oh joy. We go from a bad winter 21-22 and a boring spring, summer, and fall 2022, to an all time awful winter 22-23, severe fail spring and summer, and El Niño tropical season this fall. Someone slam an axe into the back of my head as an act of mercy.
  5. I’ve never been so out so soon on a winter. I mean, I was really done in December. I’m beyond annoyed that every other post I make is some sarcastic shot at the winter that wasn’t. I’d much rather have a reason to stay up for the euro, post pictures of pristine snowy landscapes, and belly laugh at the buffoonery of overdone snow maps. We’re barely getting traces in clown range. Just end this already.
  6. As you know, winter and I had a nasty divorce back in 2015. For some reason I fell for the trap in early December. Maybe we’ll go back to frenemies with benefits next year.
  7. Looking forward to Columbia, SC passing me in seasonal snowfall by Sunday.
  8. It’s nice to leave the office now and still see some sunlight.
  9. I don’t necessarily disagree with you. Statistically, it’d be shocking if we didn’t. But unless 1888 or 2013 walks through the door it’s not going to change my subjective grade at the end of the season. A 6-12” event would be great. I’d track it. I’d enjoy the event unapologetically. But by itself it’d also be meaningless in the whole scheme of things. I am just speaking for my backyard and CT. I know it has been a better year virtually everywhere else in New England. Good to see you posting. Hope all is well.
  10. We got our Arctic shot and that cold won’t be topped for a long time. Don’t really care what happens now, though hopefully NNE can keep the slopes and trails going.
  11. -7.6° for the low. With no snow cover, big wind, and temps below zero before midnight. Here in The Valley. Absolutely incredible. Just getting back after two hours outside. Spectacular morning.
  12. Around the house this morning in a t-shirt and flip flops. Good thing the neighbors are asleep
