Haven't had Spring thunder (besides a passing rumbler) around here for at least 4 years. For that matter haven't had Summer thunder (besides above) for about 4 years either. I can prove it by the date on my dogs Xanax bottle. That Thunder Ice back in January was the best (and loudest) light show in years. Been nothing but serious fizzle domes above me in like forever.

I'm on about 3 acres kinda nestled in the woods so I've got decent protection from the wind. We got 2 maybe 3 after the days lake streamers. But even with the bigger snows the beginning of January, this ones been the most fun. Believe it or not we had 2,3, and 4 footers out here today. First time I've been able to hop the dog in the truck and legitimately go out and go drift busting out here in the sticks in 3 or 4 years. I know all the hot spots and they didn't disappoint. One notorious road that drifts will commonly have 2 footers with a 2 inch fluff snow and stiff WNW winds. I've seen drifts bigger than my truck there before in a 10 inch snow. Easily had a 3-4 foot virgin snow wave 8ft across that we blasted through. Sorry haven't been able to do that in a long long time. Fun time. Now we freeze lol.

Well if that panned out I'd be like the old time Mt. Dew bottles..."It'll Tickle Yer Inards!" lol

Well at least most of us got a few inches to cover and make it look like winter for this brutal latter half of Feb coming up. I cannot stand arctic tundra crap and snow cover, for whatever reason in my little circus of a mind, makes the frigid temps feel not so frigid. While we exit this piss ant pattern, March is Big Dog season in my part 'o the hills so bring it! lol

You'd think we were in that forum over there... to the east... where all that chowders at lmao.

The prophet as usual

Nah, hostility shouldn't be tolerated on weather boards. Pissed because it didn't pan out? Sure. Hell, disappointments my middle name when it comes to snow lol. But hostility because someone else got the flakes, nah. I'm always happy for them, begrudgingly lol

It's 34 and -SN, dime flakes, here. I ran to the store an hour ago and still had ice all over my truck. Definitely not following the forecast temp curve so far. I see KIND pulled the trigger on a WWA for their far northern counties. Still think we could eek out 4 maybe 5 out of this. Classic setup for MBY to over perform.

I'm calling 4 as this back end defo sets up this evening. I'm gonna be on the tail end of it. Models support that call somewhat, its a bit high, by I don't care lol. I NEED snow cover to end this near record setting cold for the last half of FEB coming in for here. Cold is not justified without snow!

The rest of us in Back Side Betty Weenieville are looking good late Sat into Sun on these 0Z runs. Yeah I know, I'm on a slippery rug until tomorrow lol.

Ours is coming very late Saturday night into Sunday. If we get any it's on the backside and all of the models are consistently showing a backside hit after the liquid, which is good. The ground around here is far from warm so sticking won't be an issue IMO. Keep the faith! lol

Well if that's 3-6 here I'll take it lol

Hey man, a lot of us down here in kitchen sink land have a shot at 3-6 the night of the `16th into the 17th lol. I vote to add those 2 days because this system has 2 personalities lol.

If MBY is gonna get a wrap around butt kick (for me it's 4in lol) this is the kind of storm to do it

And for properly waiting until the day of because of these fallible models lol
