Ah I'm sorry dude...Now see we miss more than we hit...usually north or south...but for some reason the last week or so the cells have been lining up just right, lol

Heck of a run Baltimore City has been on for the past week...yet another cell straight across the city, lol Quite the downpour!

I think that would be a welcome change for some subforums, lol The PAC jet has been a focal point of discussion of what gets in the way! (and more generally if it would become a more permanent feature or not)

Do dumber things dumbly

"Doing the dumb" lol Gonna use that!

2/3 hits this week with more lighting than I've seen in a long time. What a week!!

And now we have some more rain and rumbles of thunder on the back end...lol Fun storm!

And it's STILL going...the energizer bunny of cells, lol

Well I think we certainly met one or both of those up in Baltimore City, lol

Same...Lights flickering at my house, lol A lot of whipping rain and lighting!

Now what qualifies as sub-severe vs. severe?

Woo!!! Pouring rain here...now got even heavier with a little more lighting!

Sigh........ I may have to fast from following winter wx this winter--for my own mental health, lol I mean ninas are so predictable you can make a safe forecast, right? Little events, maybe ya get to median, big Miller B storms missing northeast! At least you can still get scenery snow in ninas...I mean all except 1995-96 played out the exact same way, did they not? I guess the only wild card would be...if things don't work the way they used to, lol

GR?

Wooo!!! This was the most lightning I've seen in my yard in a long time! Heck of a lightshow--awesome cell!! (nice to not see it miss north and south, lol)

Wooooowee we've had a heck of a light show here in the city! I mean this thing had some juice!!

I just don't understand...26 dang years of existence...and we draw bad card at 1st round WR every. Dang. Time. It's like we spin the wheel and always land on bankrupt, smh And why just that position??? Every other position is great! It's like some force said "the Ravens are not supposed to get a 1st rd WR ever" And it's a shame because skill-wise, Bateman may be the best one we drafted. And get this: He didn't have injury issues in college. Just when WE pick him Now I thought Hollywood may have finally broken the streak. Because he hasn't been a "bust"...at least not by comparison to others. But he started off hurt too, smh. I just don't understand...smh Maybe we see Bateman sometime this season, but you know even if we do he might be hampered. Looks like a groin injury so who knows? I'm just tired of this mess...we deserve to have a WR1 drafted. But something keeps getting in the way and crap like this happens! Gah!!!! Rant over (I think, lol)

Ohhh it will...but I think the WSW drought may continue for another year, unfortunately. But at least we can still get scenery snow!

Seemed like last year was the year of the ragged eye...lol

Sheesh...4 la ninas in 6 years. Ha...ya think if stuff has to warm these waters could warm too...lol But here they are cold! (I know it's subsurface thus it's a different animal than the air) And why do la ninas tend to repeat but el niños don't?

Huh? Thought we were in la nina?

According to ggweather.com, 72-73 was a Strong Nino, 76-77 was weak, and 91-92 was strong. So you have 51-52 and 1994-95 in the last 60 years that didn't produce...but it appears the rest did. So it may not be 100%, but to me it's higher confidence enough to say it's worked much more than it hasn't!

Because you said "moderate to strong ANYTHING can bring great or awful"....which of course ain't the case with moderate/strong ninas which are mostly bad, lol

Let's clear something up here: What is defined as a winter where things did "work?" Hitting the median? Having at least one warning level event? Several small events? Things that add up to average? Can you call a winter that failed to produce a 5" event one that "worked"? To me if you can't register at lrast warning level event, that means things didn't weren't working THAT well at any point during the winter (unlike other winters where you could have at least one period that "worked"). As I've observed here the last 7 years, usually something up top was causing some frustration (a lot of "if we had more/less of this feature we could get more snow") Now sure you could make a case where a winter full of 1-2 inchers that added up to median "worked" for scenery purposes...so by that definition maybe others winters "worked" (like the la ninas of 2016-17 & 17-18 that did just enough to deplete snow days, lol). All that to say...it sounds kinda subjective, lol

1) Never said every time...just MOST of the time. Always exceptions (like last year's -AO/-NAO not working). Historically mod ninos have produced the most...followed by some neutrals. 2) I mean don't most of us here want above average...or even above median?......Just me? Lol I mean what's a good winter? 3) Moderate to Strong Nina...name one time outside of 1995-96 that was good! And name a mod nino that wasn't. Strong ninos are indeed hit or miss.
