AU74 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 8 minutes ago, WinterWxLuvr said: Well that means it was plowed by the 9th. So that means you had to suffer through three whole days. Just how much toilet paper, bread and milk does it take to get through 3 days? Not much. I agree with your main point, just quibbling about your claim on how long we can get stranded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the GFS dropped a foot on a large area of our subforum for multiple runs in a row with close hits on other models, we’d have started one, too. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The terrible results takes years to recover from. Minor ice is a nuisance except for the many who suffer inconvenience. Major ice cripples the communities affected. I don’t think you have to worry about your community taking years to recover from the great frontal passage of February 4, 2022. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With our supply chain being on a razors thin edge it doesn't take much for us to not have any chicken in the case for a week now unfortunately. In Shepherdstown, roughly 2008 or so, there was a lovely spring day when I went into the Food Lion there for a quick 5pm grab veggies for dinner, and the produce dept was pretty much empty. Like, nothing. It looked when I went to Harris Teeter just before they closed on the eve of Snowmageddon, but only in produce. The rest of the store was fine. The produce manager went on vacation. No one did the order while they were gone. I bought a veggie tray so that I could make dinner. People don't realize how razor thin those margins are. Hope you get the chicken soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolz1 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I love snow and would prefer a nice cold powder bomb but I also love anomalous winter weather. Id take what the 18z gfs is selling in a heartbeat. Not too often you see an event unfold like that around here. 18z GEFS compared to 12z. Better cold press on the mean and more ind members fell in line with the op. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't know why they would have a thread and be so anxious to talk about something that happens weekly and isn't special to them like it is around here. To northerners, snow can become annoying, commonplace. Here, it's like that unicorn that brings a giddy feeling inside your gut. But above all, whether or not we start a thread, won't change any outcomes to our weather. Something I KNOW you all know but just felt the need to point out. Now, let's start this thing!
