WinterWxLuvr Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I'd rather see posts moved rather than deleted, if they are deemed to be harmful to a thread. Most of the time, probably shouldn't do anything. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it my job, or Midlo's, or Ian's or Randy's to move posts because someone is too lazy to copy, click a few times to a different thread, and then post?

Not a big deal, but sometimes posts aren't made with any real intent, good or bad. And most of the time, it would be much easier to just do nothing. We have TOO MANY THREADS. Last year we had two. Check it yourself. They were the Med/ Long Range Disco and the Obs/Banter thread. It worked better than this is working. Everything is always a matter of opinion. That's mine. We have TOO MANY THREADS. Anyway, no big deal. I'm not losing sleep over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POLAR VORTEX Looks to be forced SOUTH- flipping AO to Neg he must read our subforum. we're like psychics and stuff. I'm honestly more interested in the developments afterwards. Yea, we could get a storm but all snow is basically not really an option unless the pattern progresses even quicker than progged. And this assumes the pattern remotely progresses as progged. I'm thrilled with some sort of consensus building for blocking. THAT could be our lasting pattern of winter goods and it would happen in our coldest climo month. please please please let it happen....pleeeeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I wouldn't yet get giddy. The CPC AO index forecasts keep it positive through the period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Once we get 15+ inches of snowcover, we'll get below zero. Really, the only place where 09-10 falls short of being the ideal winter is that it was never actually cold. The low temp for the winter at DCA was 16.
