If you’re gonna say you don’t want us to post obs during a storm, then say that. If you’re gonna say don’t post storm totals in a storm thread, then say that. If you don’t want us to post seasonal totals in the totals thread, then say that. Not sure how MG would do the seasonal map without that last one though. But don’t come after everyone just because you’re pissed at someone else 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice out on the lakes must be early June. Truly a harsh climate. Seemed like he felt slighted in the February obs thread with pictures from the WV mountains so needed to chime in from his Siberian tundra ridge vs the surrounding deserts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to post that this winter has really sucked because of the "frozen precip" this year. Watching other folks only 40-50 miles away get raked time and time again makes it even that much more miserable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
