  1. I know it’s hard to undo the shook from last year, but I really believe there is nothing to fear when that happens in October.
  2. Yep...and man last year threw everyone for a loop. Who would have thought on 12/15 that we would enter such a historically bad stretch.
  3. I mean piggies show up all the time even if only briefly. That’s climo up there. Our best winters still feature them, they just aren’t a staple and have longevity like they do in our lousy winters.
  4. When did we have a piggie in November last year?
  5. Doesn't matter, the King came at the end of the season. Long live the King.
  6. But after being rejected so many times at the pool, Wendy Peppercorn came over and actually made out with me on 3/31/97.
  7. Might be more for Ray...lol. But yeah, that stung. The event the day prior where we had TSSN sort of made up for it, as the forecast was "down the drain."
  8. I don't either. I think we know a lot more now in terms of what age group to protect, and much better safety/sanitation measures in place. We won't be anything like that 3 month period.
  9. Well we’ll test that in a few months. I sure hope that is right.
  10. I had to google what that is, but it sounded funny lol.
  11. You might be right. Nice high there too. I think we just had a few inches before the rain.
  12. I was just thinking that. I know it was the same for my friend Dan who lived in Hubby land too. It’s crazy. I know something like that is coming. All we can do is prepare.
  13. No, not that March one. I think we had several inches in that. I know it was latitude dependent because even Hingham had 6.5” in that one. I think it was in January. I’ve always meant to go back and figure out what date it was, but I probably mentally blocked it from my memory lol.
  14. I’m man enough to admit it, but I deeply hope nobody shares the pain I had in Dec ‘92. Blizzard warnings were up, parents telling me this would be the biggest storm of my life...only to change to white rain and snizzle from some sort of marine layer moving back in and a slot. 5-6” of paste prior. It was an awful pill to swallow.
  15. I remember saying how that POS storm was ruining that perfect bowling ball moving across the country. I definitely was not happy, but you have to admit...it was timed just right as far as the spacing goes.
  16. I lost it truly twice in my lifetime. Once was December ‘92. I may have shed a tear. It was the biggest gut punch I’ve ever had. I still remember that feeling. The other was the same winter. I drove south my my grandparents in Hyde Park and S+ paste turned to rain on rt 24. Of course it surged north to Boston, but I lost it in the car. It was further exacerbated by that asshole slant sticker in Stoneham. Mark Tarello. He called in 10”. Eff him.
  17. There is no way mine came close. All I said was not going to happen to James and a comment to Steve. Kevin literally lost it and threatened to delete his account.
  18. I mean if the model was meant for Europe...lol. But it is a global model and track means everything. I feel like I did hear something about that too....but I can also tell you it seems to be whiffing on some synoptic stuff here as well. We'll see what happens in the winter. Maybe it gets its swag back.
  19. I haven't heard that, but I'm not sure I get that logic. From a public standpoint and a decision support stand point, I'm not sure why you sacrifice skill on events like tropical cyclone landfalls that can have a huge impact on the population where they make landfall. Yay, congrats on nailing the -RA on Seattle at day 5.
  20. We have an interesting model battle on our hands this winter. The NAM and GFS seem to be ever so slowly improving. RGEM is basically a NFL kicker. May make a 62 yd field goal on one try and miss an extra point the next. Euro has been pretty bad in certain situations this summer.
  21. So because the model has shat the bed some many times this summer, we can see more of it. it's not the king like it used to be. We'll see how it does this winter.
