You just get that feeling if we could ever get that 4-5" snow the flood gates would open and we'd start getting back to normal in this region. Just can't get that monkey off our backs, 3 yrs is ridiculous.
Like you I miss the slower lifestyle in MO. And you're right cost of living with taxes and all is crazy here. I got used to the fast pace and traffic, but do miss my acreage in Monett.
I'm in Benton Co, AR. Rogers area. You may think I'm exaggerating but check it out yourself. Fayetteville official reporting station hasn't had greater than 2" in any storm since Feb 2015. The past 2 winters sucked in this entire region, working on a 3rd now. Bordering historic, although the same happened back in 06-08. That probably would be historic for Missouri.
Well I certainly hope you are dead on with your assessment, but you have to admit it's hard to bet against the trends, repeating patterns, etc, that have not been in our favor.
Warm up and rain this weekend, eh, lol. Cold wasted, thaw coming. Now I'm curious can we go 3 straight winters without a 2 inch snow, sure we can! Move to the deep South if u want snow, SMDH.
What's really gonna be a kick in the gut is when the deep South ends up with more snow than any of us this winter. We may not catch Mississippi now lol with their 6 inches today.
