I have a complaint, why are we talking about snowmobiling in like 4 threads but not in this thread -->

Possibly because its winter and weather factors into it.... Many people come here to discuss weather in regard to their interests. Have you ever visited the New England sub-forum.... It's 50/50 banter/weather.... Lighten up.

Bad example to help strengthen your point, the banter there is horrible. So ya it might be best to not have banter in every thread like that sub forum.

attaboy SSC! Now you're cook'n with gas!

that's how you do a complaint thread proud!

After a disaster winter in 2011-12, I waited patiently for 9 months, through heat, humidity, drought, decaying lines of tsra, for a chance at redemption. And this is what mother nature pulls out of her ****?

If you LOVE snow with your whole heart (and I do), anger and rage is the appropriate reaction to this horse****.

you're preaching to the choir dude....

this is my take, (tonight), regarding the next two weeks....rain...cold...rain...back to cold period ending with w/MA snowstorm...back to mild and blah. It's horrible. Nothing can amplify in the middle of the country so we get crappy fast moving ridges and troughs that will deepen too late and threaten the eastcoast.

I WANT to believe that the atmosphere has some semblance of equilibrium and that at the end of the day all this crap evens out. That there's restitution. That there's a 24"+ snowstorm waiting to ameliorate us from this nightmare. But in reality I know I'll be waiting in vain.

Yeah, this is great advice. When your having downtime, always look back at lesser known events like December 1953 or February 1894.

It helps to pass the time. Been making heavy use of these links lately:

Perhaps mother nature is just saving it all for the mother of all storms. I'm thinking on Dec 21 = 30" local accumulations. I too have been spending way too much time reading and praying for nothing but torches and rain.

You mean you don't have faith in JBs assurances that the cold is coming. I mean, it's just around the corner. We've got to know that right? :rolleyes:

Gosh, I hope this thread gets to slow down soon. With the snow futility record likely to be broken in Chicago (no measurable snow for the season until at least 12/17)...why does it seem like everything needs to align so perfectly to get snow and cold in winter? It's almost like we know too much about patterns, models, etc. You'd think snow and/or cold would be the "default" scenario in DJF. Sure, I could see things needing to come together nicely to get wintry wx in Nov or March...but in mid-late December? Really?

In summer, it's warm/hot/humid...and there's never a debate whether that will be the case. But in DJF, we struggle for winter.

Carry on.
