I mean I don't want completely bare ground and brutal cold for a week or more, but if we get a couple minor events with a few inches that hangs around and only goes due to sublimation, I would gladly take it. I prefer an established, persistent cold period and as it relaxes a bit, we get the bigger event. Around here you have to be flexible and take winter- and be happy with it- anyway it comes though. Soon enough we will again be back in our 6 month endless summer of heat and humidity. I legit just felt depression set in when you mentioned summer. When were in an ugly winter pattern and it's getting me down, I just think about how it could be summer and I chill out. Hate summer with a passion.

I always dread the thought of summer this time of year. The heat, humidity, and the damn mosquitoes, which will probably be even more horrific this year. Also I love not having to do any outside work lol. I'm depressed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some of the old timers, this place is more a wade through the muck to find info and not bother offering commentary cause it gets drowned out Could not agree more. Well said. While I'm certainly not a major contributor, I am an "old timer" from when this forum started and Eastern before. Some of the "muck" gets too thick sometimes. Love a good joke and trivia as much as anyone, but some of it gets carried away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The past week (using my personal grading system only) puts this winter ahead of the bottom third of all winters in the 40+ years I've lived in MD. A ratter this is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Batting a thousand today. Now at Pittsburgh airport delayed as we wait for a maintenance crew to show up to take care of a mechanical issue. Not a good sign when they have us deplane for the work.

aldie 22 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Boy the long range tracking sure is a challenge with the constant changes....good bad ugly rinse repeat. I try really hard not to worry about what the long range models are guessing and focus on each event as they come...if they come. It reduces my heartburn by enjoying the individual event vs the winter as a whole or what hasn't happened yet. Its also a challenge when different eyes see the same model run completely differently...that is in my opinion what causes the sometimes chaos in the long range threads. All my opinion people...you all can have your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevWarReenactor Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I actually think the model thread should only be for mets and people who have proven themselves as forecasters. Everyone else can just watch and take the sidebars elsewhere. That being said, lots of safe spacers in this place. What happened to do the days where the melt downs and the complaining was actually what was expected. Now people saying they are leaving because god forbid, a blown forecast, or a bad winter, is called what it is!! Imagine being disappointed in a weather forum due to lack of snow! Crazy idea!! People get so offended these days. Its hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol We really need Don S. to make a visit and set everyone straight. I’d like to see the statistics on final seasonal snow in DC when DCA has recorded at least 10 inches by January 15th. Based on a quick glance at the data it seems as though most winters that had said amount of snow by Jan 15th were biggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
