Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm hoping for as much snow as possible for as long as possible...I hope at least one of these events causes major disruption to everyday life, causing traffic debacles, power outages, trees down, treacherous roads, school closings, government closings, and otherwise to be as crippling as possible....I'm not kidding... I believe a lot of people feel the same as you do. Including me... Well, I'm more or less of the same thinking...with the exception of power outages. Those are just no fun, whether it's winter or summer, it sucks. (Also, no power means no access to this site or anything else!) But I'm all for a storm that closes things down and you just stay at home and enjoy the snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 High impact weather is why we are here. Talking about how nice and calm is only to pass time until something good comes along. I'm in for 12-18" of paste with howling 40mph winds. I have a generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, why else would you be posting on this board? The best events are the ones that smack everyone around and remind them that nature is in charge and they will be inconvenienced whenever the weather chooses.

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Big march snow is just too rare to expect at all. We start fighting climo too hard and too much can go wrong. Last year was a classic example. lol At least we have active flow and cold air around over the next 2 weeks. If we had to put all our eggs in one basket we would probably come out on the losing end. I'm all for and interested in any event that can deliver a non-slantsticked 1". Ugh...yes! The Noquester white rain event was a train wreck and still I think in the back of everyone's mind. Getting killed by marginal BL temps really hurt, that entire day was simply depressing. Not to meniton criticism due to all the (mostly unnecessary, in hind-sight) closures. But the set-up and environment was different then. It appears (caveat emptor here, of course!) that the projected pattern would be more favorable in early March this year than it was last year.

Many people do need a wake up call - people who live in a plastic, disconnected world where they live under the disillusion that they are in control of nature.

Yeah, something like this would be nice. With or without a generator...I don't care for power outages, but would take chances that the power wouldn't go out for a long time to experience a storm like that (emergency supplies at hand in case)! I'd take the 12-18" any time, the winds would be secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interstate Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 People post images from WeatherBELL all of the time on here and everywhere else.

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It's easy to want a devastating snow, or high winds, or tornadoes when your biggest worry is whether your apartment door will open or your tv signal will hang tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Many people do need a wake up call - people who live in a plastic, disconnected world where they live under the disillusion that they are in control of nature. I have a book about northeast Ohio weather (where I'm from originally!). There's a discussion about this in the chapter that covers the severe blizzard of Jan. 26-27, 1978 that struck the entire state of Ohio with extreme cold, very high winds, and heavy snow. Basically, the commentary was that we now depend so much more on being "connected" that we may be in more jeopardy from such storms than we were in the past, as they can cripple communications more than previously. Or something along those lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
