  1. I’m on board but I’m not a thread starter
  2. Maybe an overperformer for a change. Haven’t had one since our supersquall
  3. Me too, I’m actually excited for a 3-5 inches tomorrow because it is snow on snow so I can pretend it’s a bigger storm, and u like most this year it will be happening in broad daylight.
  4. I like Tips posts, especially in the context of today’s text and abbreviate culture. We have collective cultural ADHD. The thought of having to actually sit and think and read and think more to make sense of something seems to be a shrinking skill. Damn I sound old. But weather patterns are complicated and can’t always be reduced to a tweet. We Should be greatful for the skilled posters who are willing to take the time to really dissect something, and Tip is not the only one.
  5. surprised there was enough snow down towards Boscawen. The trails just near my property by Walker Pond are groomed but it looks like 8 inches or so. But glad you're riding! The rail trail is awesome all seasons.
  6. i think we want it to be flat so that it doesn't amplify intot he great lakes and flood us with warmth...
  7. Ok, I'll take this deal. Hold onto existing snow pack and add to it this week a bit, then get a 2 week period of snow and cold end of month and first 10 days of March. Then a melt out and peas in the garden by April 1.
  8. The look on the map I see (WPC) has consistently shown good high pressure to our nw and then n for Mon-Tues. 2 days ago it looked bad (less high pressure) for 1 cycle but the high returned next cycle and it would seem this set up would trend a bit colder, with some sort of coastal reflection or something? The other day trended south at the last minute and we and you got screwed...but this is entirely different set up.
  9. I think the lowest I got was -3 or 4. Thank God the peaches are safe! Let's hope the bees made it. Onto Tuesday! lol
  10. well maybe there is hope for some of us...and there is time for trending, and the shortwaves are in data sparse areas, etc.
  11. We have a very solid base of 6-12 in the woods up here and a decent cover in open fields. We just can't seem to get the decent dump that would allow for more wintery activities like snowmobiling, and give us a deep snowpack for a few weeks. We can't quite get there this year. But it does show that even in a shitty year we do well with retention.
  12. Look I hope nature figures out how to rebalance. I think we don't know about what will happen, but that would be a great outcome. Personally I'm an optimist about most things, so I think we'll figure it out. But what I bolded above...you should reevaluate that statement. It is remarkably hard to argue that. Please look at the nasa chart on burning of fossil fuels over the last 800,000 years.
  13. Aren't you the one who was just yesterday saying we shouldn't talk about this? What you just posted basically proves that you haven't read anything about global warming. Sea ice extent is one data point and will change seasonally. For the love of God, this doesn't change the bigger picture that the globe is warming rapidly, at an unprecendented rate...and that this is caused by burning fossil fuels. Here is the chart of the change in carbon in the atmosphere that goes back 800,000 years. https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/ If you want to debate this, good luck. Perhaps you think NASA and 95%+ of scientist that study this are all engaged in fake news - okay. It continues to be relevent to discuss how climate change MIGHT be impacting current weather patterns. It surely is, but perhaps in many ways including ones that are conflicting or counterintuitive. What would be helpful is that when sometimes remarks that a warming planet might be effecting our weather pattern, is to discuss that in the context of the pattern, not to tell people to go to the climate change thread. I realize that if you have an opinion that isn't informed by much data or fact, it can be disturbing to have that pointed out to you, and you would then want people to not talk about it. I encourage you to embrace the cognitive dissonance this creates and let it be a learning opportunity that could help the public dialogue. Either that or maybe just read Joe Bastardi's whacked out twitter feed. And I promise that if someone posts a ridiculous doomsday scenario about climate change that is unrealistic or not supporting facts I will be just as clear with them as I am with you. But, funny, that really never happens on here as far as I can tell.
  14. Gyx talking mixed on Tuesday, my zones show snow, wpc shows high pressure to our north, and snow chances pretty good north of CON. Not being talked about here because it is too optimistic given set up? Or perhaps most precip with this is in Canada
  15. WPC def trended north with the snow line for Tuesday, despite high pressure to our n on Mon and Tues.
  16. seems like in that set up, there is a shot it will trend better...but never count on anything this winter fo sho
  17. check out wpc on that one. They show the high. they have pretty decent chances of snow north of the MA-NH border. And their projections improved overnight. Implies some kind of transfer in that set up, no?
  18. not interested in Tuesday? could have decent qpf.
  19. We had that stone cabin built by an old stone guy up here...did it before we built the house because we weren't sure we would build a house on our land. It sits on a spot up a gentle hill where according to the locals, an old stone cider house was. It gives me a nice feeling to look at it, especially in the snow. When we have snow cover we can pretend we're getting a big storm as long as we get the nice bursts...
  20. Getting a little burst to take the sting off.
  21. Jeebus when I woke up at four and five in the morning from my bed looking out the window it looks like it was snowing hard because it looked kind of milky and you couldn’t see the trees that well. So then I’m laying in bed at like 630 and I read Brian’s. comment about the radar looks like crap and then I will walk over to the window and it’s actually more fog it’s barely snowing and I think we might’ve had an inch LOL. Was any model showing this outcome? That said, I’m glad some of you snow starved MFers got some love
  22. Wpc maps actually look more optimistic for snow nne and cne Tuesday. Seems there is some high pressure to our north Monday which pushes a cf through as a primary moves east of chicago
