We all want different things and that's ok. Seems to be the theme of the morning
Anyway...I'm done being grumpy about weather stuff for the day. Outta my system!
Emphatically not ready to bring on spring, whether it's going to snow or not. A warm stretch here and there for outside activities? Sure! But that's it. It's Feb 17th. No spring till proper spring. It's just muddy and depressing. Posts about oh shit there's a mosquito in the house I pulled a tick off the dog blergh.
Postponed. Would rather risk feeling like a wimp than the I-95 experience. Much as I trust my beat up 2005 VW Golf
Now I can weenie out all day and evening tracking snow until my eyes bleed lol.
Ob: just over .5" rain
Drive from Harford Co. to Columbia for 5-6 pm plans and back again 10ish...to brave the winds or postpone...opinions welcome.
edit, I guess this is banter but it's slow here so eh
I think most anti-negativity is not so much about what you describe (2-4 vs 15) as...people who get upset they might get a foot+ of snow instead of two+ feet bc a model showed two feet before. But maybe you feel that way too. Not sure of the geography of those complaints but it's obv worse if they've had a good winter to date and are whining
But -- unless I'm missing something it's not that many people. It seems like it only takes a single complaint for a dozen people to be like omgggg the meltdownsss it's pandemonium this place is off the rails etc which is why I advocate ignoring people who make truly ridiculous complaints.
Some of the best rates I've ever seen. Total whiteout, wind, less than 2" snow but crazy drifts. I know it was less impressive for some in the forum but absolutely wild here. Otherworldly.
Wish I could've stayed awake but nice to hop on this morning and see the telltale 200+ posts. Fun times. Joy for all lowlanders even northern ones Ways to go. Happy Valentine's Day, fellow weirdos.
I have 3.5", too. 2.5" yesterday, without any clearing, so I'm sure compacted. Cleared before going to sleep and another inch this morning. I saw T. August post 3.7" so some E-W consistency.
