There’s a bunch of posters like me, you, Will, Ray, Wolf , Dryslot etc that are on the edge. Folks just deal with it in different ways. For now patience.. if we are having this conversation Dec 23.. pain
You can basically summarize like this… if the much anticipated and widely forecast in many circles pattern change to more favorable with snow chances and sufficient cold beginning Xmas week and for Jan and Feb is delayed or pushed back or doesn’t happen or whatever , this place is going to lose it. That includes snowless SNE all the way up to NNE where much of area outside the Mtns sees the giant snow eraser Sunday night. There are a ton of posters( myself included) that are hoping and counting on it . Folks are already posting on eggshells. It had better happen or all hell will break loose.
Agreed. I don’t think it’ll be a top 5 event , but you can envision this one rivaling the ones we had in Nov and Dec back in the 90’s. Those gusted 65-70 even inland . My thinking is 50-58 inland and maybe exposed areas rip a 60 or two . At least it’s something fun to track and look forward to .
Looks like constant snows began in Nov and they sleigh greatly into mid Napril .
Every single year. What a winter lovers time to be alive !
A Ginx Christmasstory
If they ever wanted to do rewrites from our era .. it would be along the lines of Record snow melts, screamers, green Christmases , high dews, bikes and roller skates and the Grinch wearing shorts and a tee
Well it is what it is I guess. When they wrote all the lyrics to all of the Xmas songs back in the day .. they must have had snow every year in December. Every Xmas song is about the worts December, icicles forming, mantles and blankets of white, sleigh bells . Ye were snowy times
Well this is all true in varying degrees, but it did used to snow in Nov and Dec.. and not that long ago. I don’t mean a small 1-4” OES event like you guys had yesterday.. we used to get snowstorms in these months.. even if they didn’t last that long OTG. I can’t figure out if it’s just a bad and vicious cycle we’re in , or if this really is what it’s going to be like each year
I was driving back from NH looking at the barren green landscape and was thinking about it. The winter is only so long and when you lose weeks and months .. it just gets extremely stressful
When you sit back and think about it, the amount of days and weeks and months we waste of possible snow waiting for that elusive pattern change to kick in really is amazing. All the tracking, all the 10 days that keep getting pushed back.. just happens so often.. and before you know it Tip is posting about warm car seats and sun angle on Feb 10.. and then Morch hits
