weathafella Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hey Kevin, stoughton isn’t a town near the water. First thing I do is take a look at the overnight model runs. Seeing nothing changed and then read the bs from people taking a post that the poster admitted as tongue in cheek and running wild. ths place can sure suck sometimes.

Still, odds are against either. Expand Yes. A one month period spread between the two months. Almost certainly, 2015 was more remarkable than the Great Snow of 1717.

40/70 Benchmark Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Cosgrove is claiming that the SSW is going to "fade away" over the next 10 days...makes zero sense, since it takes 10-14 days to even have an impact...and the PV is just now splitting.

40/70 Benchmark Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 I think having a SSW focused away from us during climo peak of a weak modoki will make for a pretty cool time to be in sne if you like snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Part of the weenie meltdowns is we can't buy a snow event even in these mediocre to crappy patterns. Usually we pull one or two events out of those...even if they are 3" that melt in 2 days. We just haven't done anything so it starts getting everyone irrationally pessimistic. They become the gamblers who are convinced that because the roulette wheel came up black 8 times in a row, they have an advantage by betting black next spin...the casino then laughs to the bank with their 5.5% advantage.

codfishsnowman Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 As much as I hated getting boned (relatively speaking compared to the rest of most of SNE) the past several years, it has made me apathetic these days. I vividly remember the tough winters for snow lovers in the 80's/early 90's but if I end up experiencing another stretch like that then so be it. It won't be any worse than all the disappointments of recent years...actually I know it will be easier to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm throwing this out there now, but 16-17 or so will get dicey. Think of it as the ups and downs. The downs are slowly getting better. One more down maybe 16-17 and then back up we go for a little while at least. The GEFS continue to look better than the EPS, but the EPS are slowly getting there.
