Torch Tiger Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 it's been a rough few months, and we all need to find a little joy here and there. Tensions are really high in this place, with yesterdays blowout and now today's very prejudice and perhaps insulting non wx-related comments. Hopefully the next few weeks provide just what we need- an extended stretch of mild days with warm sun. Everyone will feel recharged and ready to take on 7-8 months of temp and dew talk. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonPeon Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I was abroad in December, and have yet to see more than a dusting of snow. Time is running out for me on the coast, with nothing in sight. It has felt like an English winter, most of the time. Worst in my memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve asked the mods if next server/system update can feature a full block but the current ignore feature is better than nothing...surprised more aren’t using it.

There's still almost 6 weeks left to Astronomical winter believe it or not(seems hard to believe)...so lots of time to go Way Below Normal Snowfall if it doesn't snow again through March 21st. Or get a big ending and pull out Normal snow for the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I think a lot of us forget what a normal or slightly below normal season really feels like. We’ve been spoiled a lot the last 2 decades. Yeah, we know we’ve been lucky and that we’re due for regression, but it doesn’t make it any easier when you’re actually living through one of the down years...especially if it’s more down than usual. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about other people my age but I think it helped me growing up with crappy winters. It was pretty much the norm with the exception of a few storms/years and so I've just come to take what I get. I've told the story before of how in the December 1992 blizzard I had 3" but literally a few miles down the road there was over a foot. I think some posters heads would explode if that happened to them today. It's just not mathematically possible to constantly have above normal years. At least we still have a few months left where chances could pop up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m like 10”+ above my normal snowfall over the last 15 years. CC isn’t accounting for that much already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whineminster Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 My thing is that people always say, "oh I don't care about pack"....and..."deep cold does nothing for me".....but this is the perfect case where it has, because we had a big storm and are near normal but people still complain, which means everyone is in fact a pack person and an ACATT (in the winter) person, but won't admit it. Honestly if we had some sustained cold with the amount of snow we've had everyone would be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC isn’t accounting for that much already. There is even a case to be made that CC has upped the annual snowfall averages over New England. We can debate at what point that starts turning the other direction, but the empirical evidence is pretty clear that we're currently near a climo peak in the historical record of snowfall whether one uses decadal or rolling 30 year averages. I think personally it's mostly natural variation, but hard to prove attribution. Here's ORH snowfall both 15 year and 30 year rolling averages just to make the point: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My regression comment triggered John a bit, but I think we can still have snowier winters than previous decades and still have room for regression back down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
