Seems like sucky winters are our new base state. 18-19, 20-21 were good winter for some. 13-14, 14-15 were really good. Gonna have to do a hard no on your statement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's now in PSU land and will jackpot every winter going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know where he is…but in some recent crappy years I’ve noticed more of a difference between the higher ridges in northeast Carroll (Manchester area) than further south along Parrs. In a good year there isn’t much difference. In a bad year there can be when it’s barely cold enough here even. As for his old location it’s unquestionable that it’s becoming harder to get an above average snowfall year on the coastal plane. Even the few good years our “region” have had recently tended to leave them out of the party to some degree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assume his location will be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assume his location will be the same. I'm sitting at about 900' elevation on the ridge. It's in the Woodbine area. I'm thinking I'll do good with oragraphic lift during coastal storms as well. It's a really cool area. I really like being out of the tropics. From where I exist from 70 to where I live the temp usually drops a few degrees also because I gain probably like 600' the last few miles to the house.

Only thing Westminster has going for it over me is just being further west. It never fails that the snow/sleet/rain line during marginal events sets up over my place, so I ride the line and mix, while places west stay all snow. Not that I care.

It’s really only events that are marginal even for this area that my area will do better but those do happen a couple times a year. Last year was weird with so many of them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s tasty but honestly I may like the original better from what I remember Its good stuff. I would rate it slightly lower than the Bourbon Barrel aged and the original, but better than the Oak aged Vanilla version. Original is the best, and if you can get an aged one try it. I had a 2008 vintage. Ages well as advertised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psuhoffman Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I just realized since moving up here March is the month most likely to produce a warning level snowfall. Probably why I get annoyed when people start talking about spring in February. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
