There have been murmurs about potential windows around the 20th and 24th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The April snows…1993…the great St Paddy’s day blizzard of 1755…the white Easter of 1215 just after the Magna Carta signing Meanwhile people in Maine are like ok folks first quarter is over let’s do this. I hear King John remembered that storm well!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestrobjwa Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Ah well..if having a glacial snow with almost 3 weeks of arctic air that barely got out of the teens--is the high point of a la niña winter, that is not bad at all. This has actually been a lot of fun! And It seems our misses weren't logbook misses but the thing I protest the most about ninas: the pesky NS, lol But it was plenty of cold, that's for sure! For next winter...I do hope we can take advantage of this niño and get it in a workable position. If we want a big dog soon, we can't afford to waste the second Niño of this decade...we only average 2-3 per decade to begin with! And yes I'm unabashedly HECS hunting too--niños are always our best shot at those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope we get precip at this point. It will almost definitely be a warmer winter than this year. But I dont care. Just give me moisture and I will take my chances. And hopefully an active southern stream from a Nino will provide that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was this sub's storm, not North Carolina's! What I never even realized all these years, was that all I ever wanted, was for the entire DMV superregion, to get covered in solid ZR and or extreme sleet, to depths up to 9 inches, freeze in place, then get genocided severely by about 40 inches of wind driven pow at 8 degrees. That would have made the entire world right, in my estimation. I would have been so elated! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 4 hours ago, Maestrobjwa said: Yeah I know. I'm just saying...this weeks feel like worse luck than other weeks call it a slight superstition or whatever. Like sports when a team just doesn't play well in a particular situation over decades. It's just like the "weekend rule"...snows more on the weekends than it does during the week! This is all silliness and has no relevance to what actually occurs. Weather does what it does when it does. Doesn't give a fuck about weekend rules or whatever else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no different than the baseball player refusing to wash a sock during a 30-game hitting streak...some are a little more like that than others, lol So err...
