I joined just before the icestorm in 2008 and I remember immediately giving a few thoughts on the impending ice, to which I assume most of you thought.."who the hell is this d-bag." LOL. The thing is, I love weather. I enjoy not only experiencing it, but talking about it. This forum (and board too for that matter) has top notch mets which to me..was like a kid in a candy store. I couldn't wait to join and weenie out with others. I've learned quite a bit through others and their expertise. As a met, you can't expect to know everything. Those who have a passion, learn through experience and take notes from others. The forum gives myself and others a chance to learn from the expertise of other meteorologists and that's why it's a powerful thing. I am not a big facebook and twitter guy. You can easily put together 30-40k tweets easily over a few years. Some do that, but I tend to stick to the board..esp in the cold season. Many of you I have met and have gotten to know very well. I consider many of you good friends. Others I have not met, but we all share the disease that is snow. Even Mr yellow pixel in Laconia. So while the posts have racked up...I consider the board a great value and I thoroughly enjoy interacting on it with people from all over the country. Go snow. congratulations Scott, you are a great asset to the board- always look forward to reading your posts ! to another 100k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try to get more quality posts this winter...I think they can be a good learning tool. All good. You only have so much time before the next kid comes and it's back to square one.

MarkO Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 39.0/37 here with rain. Even raining at Wachusett. So no hopes. But snowing at WV. Seems to be once again, one of those north of Concord, NH type of deals. Can't wait to head up north tomorrow night and be in mid-winter mode. Today's rain put me under 1" of snow OTG.
