87storms Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 solid day. woke up to sunshine thinking there would be no chance of snow, but things turned wintry quick in the afternoon. obviously in snowy winters this would be a nuisance event, but the relative snow drought here is pretty real so gotta take what you can get. gonna chill with some woodford reserve and take in some nba all star festivities. i did ask for the eagle rare at the county spot the other day, but they didn't carry it, so i'll have to check it out another time. looks like spring next week, but maybe a return to winter the week after? also, home brewing is legit. my friend's beer was unexpectedly good lol.

WEATHER53 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I like snow when it's falling and afterward. I think the extra light from all the whiteness sets off endorphins in some of us Weather nuts. Just puttering around moving some off the patio.

Read through many of the sub-forums and still trying to figure out who the offending party is/was. No intent to stir up scheiBe, just curious given the relative tolerance exercised lately. Even the banter has been curt or worse at times, as evidenced by the "Public Service Announcement" thread... Hopefully today's snow-fix and the looming development of a -NAO and strong blocking will resurrect more collegial overtones and lessen the workload on you and all the Mods.

That serious snow shellacking is still in the offing for the subforum. THAT will definitely cause people to become much more collegial and friendly and the mods will be completely out of work policing the forum.

MillvilleWx Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I wonder if areas in VA will be warmer than where I’m going on that same day (Wednesday). High in Marathon, FL will be around 81. Gonna be close . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hats off for doing the needy. Can only imagine all the "stuff" that goes on behind the scenes by all the Mods that everyone is not aware of. No doubt it takes a lot of time and energy.

I really remember that as maybe a 45 minute hike to the top. The trailhead is on 219 just inside WV, I think, and we did it on the way to Stumptown Ales in Davis one day.

In the meantime, this is a pretty cool site. They have some cool maps. http://imap.maryland.gov/Pages/lidar-topography-viewer.aspx And here's a link to MGS site.

87storms Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 the cold definitely affects my winter mood. i much prefer 50s in between snowstorms then prolonged 30s/40s and clouds. i think the sun angle plays a part, but my mood definitely increases when it's warmer out, which is why i don't like snowless winters. gotta have some storms mixed in to make it fun, otherwise, winter is just 3 months of limited sunshine and cold.
