If only snow was as stable as warmth is now.  Would love to pencil in top 10 winters annually.

yeah right ... 

I'm mean I'm preaching to the quire here but mmm ... it's kinda difficult to run a winter expectation when the world is warming.   At baser arithmetic level, let's just say that warming is not synonymous with snow. 

I mean, we can get into the whole debate about burgeoning atmospheric ambient WV going up, such that when it snows it snows harder.  You'd be correct.   But that's during the 'initial stages' of this 'Anthropocene Epoch'  - terminology debate ongoing amid the global scientific ambit.  At some point, harder and hard snows become harder and harder mix ... eventually, cold rain. 

But something else is happening also.  The CC that doesn't exist while something simultaneously fucks up actual climate ( :wacko2: ) is also represented in morphology of storm tracks.  Storm behavior and morphology in and of themselves... Types and distribution.   Speed of the ambient winter hemispheres - there's a reason most commercial airliner air-land speed flight records have been set in the last 20 years, on west to east intercontinental transits, and it's not because the vehicles are necessarily better.  Any evolution of aeronautical design and power conversion mechanics via jet engine propulsion cannot account for taking off from Laguardia and landing at Heathrow in 3.5 hours... or whatever that was ( just 1 ex).  Anyway, all this shit effects how/if a storm snows too.   Think of it this way.  We have a front side dammed in cryogen airmass, but the storm is moving some 15% faster than past climo storm motion... But the evaporation and other physics remain constant - that means the the storm moves by and limits snow, but warms the column in time to clip with more mix to rain scenarios.  Just being a little creative here to exemplify the point...  But, that 1 in 10 storm that stays snow, yeah...snowed more than expected - for now.

You just made WinterWolf howl in anger…

That's a queer choir you're preaching to.

Is this the housefly support group? I too had a bunch inside last night...killed off 30-40 either by fly swatter or a bug light/zapper my wife had bought for by the firepit. Had some a few weeks ago, but nowhere near as many. Never issues in the past either other than a stray one here or there. 

I did discovered an outdoor swarm yesterday when I rolled by garbage can from the curb. Sure enough...maggots and quite the stench coming from the can. We don't store the garbage can near the house...but I figured maybe it had been a mistake to roll it over near the spigot to spray it down versus taking the hose further away from the house. Even still, not sure how they would've found their way inside so quickly, not as if windows were open, but seems hard to believe they weren't related. 

And just so I meet my quote for weather related content in this post...currently 81F & cloudy.

I'm in CT and where's the flipping rain? Seems like it's allergic to CT and wants to stay off to the west/northwest.

Yup, looks like we are going to be skunked around here. Im sure we will get some as the boundary drapes southward later on, but any convection is pretty much done for around here. Temps are dropping steadily over the past couple hours and the air has lost that muggy feel.

with the front south of us, I should have known better.   Down to 79 here with NE winds
