Kitzbuhel Craver Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Exactly. If we aren’t gonna snow, make it pleasant out there. I’d much rather have dry and AN temps as opposed to Arctic and Dry or like last year Cold rain after Cold rain. No thanks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Moonlit Sky Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I suppose I'm a minority, but I enjoy cold and dry weather as well. Last year was infinitely preferable compared to an 11-12 disaster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter should be cold even with no snow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The melt and refreeze made for perfect conditions it appears. Would love cold and dry until the next snow but looks like a major cutter . Folks on the elevated west side of New England have a good shot of backside CCB snow. The jury is still out on whether this can bomb out earlier giving NNE a good snowstorm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Do you actually think anyone posting on this board is in such a state of despair, and aggression (meltdown style) over weather in a way that that warrants a slap back to reality, ie, a trip to a children’s hospital where there are truly people suffering , and in some cases may be in life ending situations? …Do you think Ray is thinking right now that his life is over because he is not getting a white Christmas? I can see him now, “Honey, .it’s great that we have a new child and all, but f*ck it all, there’s no snow this year for Christmas so I am going to head down to the basement until sometime in January when the situation changes.” Do you think Scott is really thinking about taking that ride to the Tobin Bridge and swan diving into the cold waters below because we missed out on a blizzard that was depicted 10 days ago? Are Kevin, Will, Steve, and myself holding the scalpel over our wrists as we sit and watch the next putrid run of the Euro? People here are passionate about weather (currently, winter weather), but I guarantee that 100% of the people who get bummed out about a few warm, non-snowy days in winter, and especially at Christmas time get off of this forum and move on with their day as planned. The back and forth banter over weather is just part of the passion. People get worked up a bit, but again, in every case they move on with their routine.

Snowcrazed71 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I do want to apologize for my little rant earlier. Although it wasn't even that bad compared to what I'm seeing LOL. I know winter will be back. I've always been a very optimistic person and I plan on staying that way. I'm quite sure we're going to see more storms and see the excitement level shootup to the top of the exiteometer. So, let's take this little break we're going to have from the winter weather in the next couple of weeks and know that it'll be back. It will be fun times ahead. And we'll all forget about these last few weeks. Merry Christmas to all you guys. I really do like this forum and enjoy coming here every day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
