Nice eye-candy, but I didn't realize this was the 12k NAM until someone posted the 3k NAM. It still shows a nice event but nothing like this. Is there any rational reason to pay much attention to what it says as opposed to the hi-res version.
What's going to hurt is when it all goes poof. I am right in the sweet spot for right now. I am trying not to get emotionally involved, but am currently failing.
So he lives NW of Greensboro NC and you live NW of Greensboro Maryland? Did you guys plan that?
NW NC has actually been on a bit of a heater the two previous winters. Two or three random waves really hit a sweet spot in various locations over there.
If I somehow managed to squeeze an inch out of this ridiculous farce of a winter, I would take it to the bank and ride off merrily into the ++++++AO sunset. I honestly don't see it happening though. The Fail is too strong this year.
For some reason, I am actually kind of surprised at how many Terps fans there are here. I am kind of curious if you guys like being in the Big 10. I miss the old ACC days before it essentially merged with the Big East.
Well, on the positive side, when the flip does occur, it will make this long-track, well blocked-storms all the more precious after having years like this.
I know you're backed by the data, but man it is a loooooooong wait. I will note that if the previous negative bias period ended after 2010 - 11, then near the end the blocking was historic So perhaps this year is the mirror image "grand finale" of the crap + period.
I have been plowing through the monthly statistics at RDU, which the closest NWS site for me. This year had the sixth warmest January on record. The record is Jan 1950, but #3 is Jan 1949. So 1949-50 had two back to back January crapfests. It can happen again.
I'm just kind of curious if you know what scapism actually was (or supposedly was). I happened to run across in my usuall Wikipedia leisure reading. So it caught my attention when I saw a beer named after it.

Honest question: but why? If it could happen in 97 - 98, why couldn't it happen again, especially with the phenomenon which shall not be named occurring?
