What distinguishes this winter from 01 - 02 was that right after 9/11, the precip. just about shut off (which was helpful for NYC and their long arduous cleanup of Ground Zero through that winter). But then that put our area in an extreme drought - and that was during the wintertime! And the lack of precipitation continued through spring, which resulted in extended and often excessive heat during that summer of '02 (where dry begat dry). And by late August 2002, the CWA was in horrible shape!! Compare to the current conditions - So as long as the precip faucet is flowing like it is now (vs what happened back almost 20 years ago), it won't really be the same... Seems it's closer to 2011/2012 (at least where I am based on what fell so far). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 All links lead to Imgur photo albums. Smugglers Notch, Monday March 2nd Best snow of the trip, before the thaw. 2-3ft powder conditions. Amazing. Burke Mountain, Tuesday March 3rd Almost 50f, wore a sweatshirt. Really unique terrain. Powerline was my favorite trail. Gilpin Mountain Backcountry, 1165 Vertical Ft (3015ft Summit) Wednesday March 4th Adjacent mountain to Jay Peak. Can be accessed from the road and offers steep and mellow open glades, untouched snow but a rain crust with variable 3-5 inch drifts on top. Took two laps, one to the summit, using snowshoes and then snowboarded down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iceman Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Flyers baby! 7 in a row, 1 point out of first... could this be the year? They're getting hot at the right time... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're getting hot at the right time... Was lucky to snag them at +2400 to win the conference a few months back. Down to like +600 now and vegas has them favored to win the cup in several simulations. I can see them coming out of nowhere when the city least expected it and making a real run. All the pieces were there from day 1. It was just a matter of getting them used to playing together and getting Hart some consistent playing time. Have a good feeling bro. They have shown several times they can beat the elite teams this season. Only team that concerns me believe it or not is TB. They are the real deal. The other 'elites" are loaded with aging veterans.

I Like Snow Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Guess I’ll check back here next December to see if things change. The non existent winter of 19/20 just drained me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV and Fletcher made a trade with God last fall: Philly's 19-20 winter and a winter to be named later in exchange for a Cup in the spring. It's tough in the short term but the long term should play out nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds~69 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Not that we didn't already know but I'm watching NBC10 at 11am and Glenn says "Winter is over". That's a little bold for him considering there's 2/3 of March left and even early April. I agree w/him but I'm not an on air Met who will have to eat crow if a freak storm happens... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna post something about this. The ultimate insult - the winter of azz leading to the unthinkable and unprecedented. I felt the pain that I know you guys are going through right now (especially right when the Flyers were on a hot streak). And now the immediate Philly 'burbs are about to lose their state stores by Tuesday (expect the rest of them across the state will go dark eventually too).

So much for "social distancing". In all seriousness, hope everyone stays virus free and things get back to usual sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its completely unknown what will happen or what to do about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
