smokeybandit Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I'd rather just skip summer and go with Spring, Fall and Winter. Maxing out at 80 degrees would be fine with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandurin Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I'd like to max out at 85. Also I used to get seasonal affective whatevery but then I found out I was low on vitamin D and I take that during winter and it seems pretty effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the crap I take from some posters, for some of us, getting into genuine spring warmth and consistent sun at some point in March is kinda important. It is nice to know I am not alone. I never really quite understood why my mood was low but this year has confirmed it. I genuinely think that many people do not quite understand what we are dealing with on a day to day basis. I have been very good not letting my mood creep into the boards and have just been using my husband as a sounding board. But as this is a weather board and this disorder is due to weather maybe it needs to be discussed. From what I have looked into it is not just a winter issue but also a summer issue. I often joke about the movie Wall-e and the Axiom with its 72 deg sunny year round weather. While that is not what I want as I do like seasons a decent span like that would be nice.

KingJWx Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Summers are okay here, just don't like the super hot/humid days where it's 95+ with 70+ dew point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I have this sudden urge to go into the severe thread and start pissing and moaning and groaning about how severe sucks up in our region, how the models are crap and how anybody who follows it is a fool. Might even throw in a mention about how drought will screw things up for us. But thinking about it, I will leave that to our resident experts. After all they have had all winter to hone their skills to perfection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandurin Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I'm only about 20 inches short from the Euro with our supposed HECS late March storm so........yeah....grain of salt folks. I just do you really think people are taking this verbatim on a snowstorm 4+ days away? @osfan24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandurin Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I don't think there's anything wrong with expecting the possibility of a snowstorm but surely by now after this winter especially, most people would know not to expect any kind of direct translation of inches from snowmap to inches on the ground. Not even Ji is losing snow from model run to model run anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point you wonder if it becomes a distinction without a difference. Those afternoon runs were nice tho Anyone left alive to enjoy the modeled snowfall?

ers-wxman1 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I was visiting family in Basking Ridge, NJ for Easter and got into the heavy snow bands. Very impressive event. Started at 4:00 am, roads caved immediately, snow ended at 11 am. Solid 6”. For April that’s unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ers-wxman1 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Two weeks ago I lucked out and was on Long Island for the winter storm. Residence was in the big snow band of 2-5”/hr rates. Ended up with over 12”. Areas just east of me got 20”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My interest in snow peaks in January to mid February and after that it slowly decreases. At this point I am 100% interested in beautiful weather for bike rides, hiking, running, yard work, etc. I am with ya. In the middle of a labor intensive sanding/refinishing project- refinishing the "featured" side of my log house (southern exposure). Needs it bad. I really want to get it finished in the next 10 days, but the weather looks sucky overall. I might take off Thursday as it looks like the best day in the next 5 at least.

nw baltimore wx Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I've got enough indoor work to get me through the weekend, so one more crappy weather weekend before I get started in the yard is fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a mild case of it. I am pretty sensitive to the sun angle and length of the days. I take D3 all the time, but I load up on it more in winter. Seems to help.

gopper Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Call me Roger Smith or Joe Bastardi, but I have this funny feeling that all of us might just reach or exceed climo snow in the next week. If we get a decent snow from Saturday followed by an Archibald event on Tuesday we will have lived through the most epic April snow period perhaps ever. Okay, my wife just woke me up.....sloppy inch on Saturday and rain all next week.....Reality sets back in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillvilleWx Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I want spring as much as the next guy, but if we can get some legit historic weather related in the next week, I'm all for it. I love weather history. I like to be able to see stuff like this happen. It's so fascinating. The best part is, the snow will melt in a few days and the grass gets a nice drink of water in time for spring sun the second half of the month. The major downside to all this is the Cherry Blossoms. Sucks to see them get impacted, but weather going to weather whether we like it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
