Pretty sure I just saw cockblock used as a reference for snow in the storm thread. This place is cray. I hope Randy increases the mod salary soon. I'd strike if were y'all.

People are going crazy... I've never seen this forum so thirsty. Tracking 1" events for days with hundreds to over a thousand posts and what not.  I think the issue is a lot of people, myself included really feel like this winter isn't going to produce. I know it's early, but it just has that bad feeling to it and the models' teasing is just brutal. We've had like 3 storms that trended way better in the last 72hrs just to evaporate just before onset. It's getting tiring. I'm already thinking about spring fishing, sadly...

I mean, we are at climo for a La Nina winter in terms of snowfall for many, as Psu pointed out. Issue is, a lot of people (including myself) had gotten excited with talk of the 95/96 winter being an analog. We surely haven't had a shortage of winter threats, with a couple overachieving. Hopefully this 2 year drought of big snows will be met with a Moderate West based El Nino with plenty of -Nao/-Ao to go around next year. Or maybe I'm snow hungry

Spring fishing is a great idea, only problem is all that ice on the streams.......

My timing is always perfect.

I was at Hollywood Casino tonight, and I missed the dusting in Dale City.

Now, I am in Dale City and I will miss the 3-5 inches of fresh snow tonight or tomorrow in West Virginia.

I'm gonna be 2 for 2.

 

except for the snow Tuesday night lol, I WILL see that

Expand  

I hope you at least won some money.

B-Day is coming up in a month and I normally do a 3 day trip to a casino. Options have been narrowed down to Hollywood Casino (WV) or Valley Forge just outside of Philly. Decision is coming down to whether I want to visit a great distillery and have better chances of snow, WV, or 2 free nights at a hotel and outlets to keep my wife occupied while I gamble. Love my snow but I am also a cheap SOB so saving 200-250 on a hotel room is a biggie. Will probably book a room at Valley Forge and then keep track of the weather for snow chances to see whether I should cancel and go to WV.

I've almost given up.  Between getting yelled at when posts are cleaned up to just not wanting to take the time to deal with adults, I'll repeat that, ADULTS acting like babies over the one (uno, 1, primo) thing they have zero control over.  Weather.

I love snow, I love weather, I've been here since 2007.  But this place is now a drag.  No one listens, its the same thing repeated every storm threat and the juice isn't worth the squeeze.  Allegiance to Randy is what keeps me here.

sarcasm?  I can't tell right now.  Not enough coffee yet.  I ask cause I really haven't done much of anything of late.  And I think thats why there's been an increase in the posts complaining about all the whining and how some people keep on doing it cause no moderation.  

Ji is Ji and his meltdown this weekend was one for the ages but others are adding to it.  Bob's post about more bad posts coming only highlights it.

So if you are giving me a legit "atta boy" then thank you.  For what I have no idea but I'll keep trying.  You had me at hello

It's only a weather board. I love the place but it's not life and death. Do what you can but don't stress it. When some people get mad at you it probably means your doing your job so don't worry about that.

We always hope that new blood refreshes and rejuvenates a team, project, company, or even a forum, but it seems like the most recent additions to this forum aren't of the requisite quality to keep things particularly enjoyable. And the feeling that we've been screwed for the last couple years really doesn't help.

Thankfully, for those who aren't mods (whether scrub mods or not), we can ignore plenty of the crap that's stinking up the place right now.

I'm happy you are here. The board would not be the same without you.

I did win 70 dollars. Guy next to me cleaned up on Zeus III and made 550 dollars. He was still hitting bonus after bonus after bonus when I left.

Man we have GOT to get back on topic. Wait, this is Banter, lol.

I think we will get some snow tonight, even in Dale City.

No, definitely not sarcasm.
