You cared enough to respond to him. I understand it's been a frustrating start to winter out in chicagoland, but don't take it out on other people, even though spartman may deserve it sometimes. You've been condescending for years on here and it needs to stop. Posts like these is what prevents newer members or guest viewers from posting or joining and growing the community on here. Que the lol response to this post, further making my point. Anyone can be an arrogant prick online, and its cowardly. Perhaps try to step down off your pedestal and be decent to people. 

Heeeyyy Stevo6899! :)

I do enjoy lurking & reading your posts to get your observations, as a former fellow east sider. Not much has changed either it seems...

I work remotely now, so I felt Texas was the best place to move to at this point in my life.

No income tax and the warm falls / springs are definite pluses, as well as the weather being much Sunnier. It also has that same vibe California had 30-50 years ago with everyone tripping over themselves to come here, everything feeling new and the plethora of job opportunities.

EDIT: The higher risk of severe t'storms to track is nice too, although this last season locally was quite underwhelmingly.

Right on. I visit austin often for work and that area is blowing up. I was thinking of maybe moving there.

Austin is real good if you're into outdoors stuff. It's pretty expensive there compared to other big Texas cities though.

I have family in Houston and San Antonio (some of them also moved from Michigan) They're all doing well.

And that's the thing. No matter what type of person you are, what your convictions are and what your ambitions are, there's a place somewhere in the state for anyone to fit in and do well.

He ain't clogging nothing lately, except the ORD futility record talk. Chicago will make a comeback and I'm willing to bet that chicago beats DTW this winter by at least 10".

trash post!

 

Chicago is down 8" and they already average 5-6" less on average per year. i would easily take that bet

 Yeah, no doubt Chicago will rebound but it will be a tall order for them to get 18+ inches more snow than Detroit from now through the rest of the season.

And Detroit sees more snow days than Chicago. Steve has seen almost 10" this season with 3 2-4" events. Chicago has had almost zero and he still bags on our winters. its ridiculous

All that's needed is one big dog to take the right (or, depending on your location, wrong) track.

Unlikely, sure. But not impossible.

Which is why I said a tall order, not impossible lol. Although even under your scenario, your big dog would have to drop 18" of snow at Chicago, 0 at Detroit, and the remainder of the season would still have to have the 2 see the same amount of additional snowfall.

With how wild this year has been weather-wise (especially in the center of the country), I wouldn't rule out anything, lol...
