WeatherX Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 This could be the year for the big late season come-back... 1955-56 and 1959-60 possible analogs. Time for Pete to start calling for a big big late winter/early spring. I'd take either of those in a heartbeat........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 I wasn't implying that sitings of wolves were pet wolves...they are real and wild, but there are no populations of them in NE. The quotes were not meant to impune you. Was not sure if you knew about that one by MikeI agree, no packs or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Nice Dave, how far up 20/112 did you go? We went all the way up 112 through Ashfield. It was a nice ride over all. My wife and I usually take "Sunday" drives but we've been busy working in our woods cleaning up and preparing for this years sugaring season in March so this was our chance to get out. A collegue of mine lives in Worthington which is why I decided to go up that way. I was thinking of you when I saw the Chesterfield signs so I thought I'd mention that we were in the area.

Logan11 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 My Dad was a wx weenie back in the 50's before the concept had been invented. LOL And he remembered almost all the events in March and April 1956 ..in the Mid Hudson Valley where the family was then. That was his favorite winter. I'd take either of those in a heartbeat........

moneypitmike Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I just did a quick calculation and I think the average temperature for the last two days (average of each days average) was 7*. Not too shabby a cold shot. Too bad we go above freezing today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My teacher just. asked if there were any weather weenies in class and i said im a double bunner lol I've often wondered what the origins of the term are. I used to volunteer for a local TV met back in the early 80s who mentored me but everyone always referred to us as weather weenies. They would even go so far as to have wx weenie alerts for us! lol Does anyone know of any other or earlier references to the weenie term? My moniker comes from a term that students at Lyndon used to call the met students...met herb's. I know the origin of that is from Burger King commercials that featured a nerdy guy named "Herb" and so it just made sense. I don't believe that term is still used these days.

Mr Torchey Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Things should turn around in Feb, looking forward to some real winter like weather for more than just a day or two, and actually seeing some snow not 1.2 inches of slush or 3 inches over the first half of winter. Sure our good friend Pete will come in to say how great its been, the numbers dont lie, orh is the only major climo of the big 4 with more than 5 inches of snow more than half way in now. Im done arguing truth and facts, we all want snow it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
