Maestrobjwa Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I'd like to know why we get this kind of track now when we couldn't earlier this winter when we had more cold...lol Is it something with shorter wavelengths making the tendencies of that particular season less? Shorter wavelengths? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this is rhetorical, but either way I won't attempt to answer your question based on a model simulation 10 days out that will never come to fruition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it kinda is...but I've seen this happen in previous seasons where we couldn't get something tucked in all winter, yet in late Feb/March we'd get something but it would be too warm...Could just be random I guess, but I was curious whether shorter wavelengths don't behave the same way.

Different outcomes than the early/mid winter 'seasonal trends' often occur in late winter/early Spring for a variety of reasons, but in general terms the atmosphere is warming and the base state and associated drivers are shifting.

I've grown to love the back half of snow climo season. You get these killer warm days where you can start knocking out spring projects but just as quick as the warmth comes, it can get kicked right back out with a threat. Late Nina style winters that had front side cold can def flip warm and never come back. That's prob favored. My gut says the epo isn't done. I'm expecting the epo and pna ridges to come back into view or overhead within 2 weeks. Until then, time to start fencing my back yard and get ready to grow food. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we get a week+ favorable period for the rest of the snow season. I’d expect anymore snow chances will be a well-timed wave with a transient cold airmass and N/W will likely be heavily favored over the coastal plain. But it’s certainly possible we get another event or two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had our standard compressed cold/active period and now it's time to let it all go... but I can't shake the intuitive feeling. Maybe it's snowflakes falling. Maybe it's my subconscious weenie. Maybe it's the DMT. Not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T. August Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Literally the only thing that bothers me about the warmer months is the return of Dark Fishing Spiders. They are pretty much the largest (4-4.5” leg-span) native spider in the US besides the desert tarantula. My house is in the woods on the bay. It could not be more of a perfect habitat for them. They are the only kill-on-sight bug/arachnid in my mind. Even if they are outside on the property, it’s BB gun time. They WILL get in the house. We have dark wood trim around everything. That is their favorite shit. Such god-awful creatures. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is their favorite shit. Such god-awful creatures. Get this. Been using it for years around the perimeter of the house, door sills etc. Use a garden sprayer and spray every month in the Spring, Summer, and into the Fall. Great stuff. https://www.domyown.com/suspend-sc-p-40.html?keyword=suspend sc&gclid=CjwKCAiA9aKQBhBREiwAyGP5lbkKF02o_641wOww3TPBLXPleQvJB5FdbZNn3Ir1s0ftj6C5RkbR8BoCJFwQAvD_BwE eta- the residual it leaves is transparent, so it wont leave anything visible on the surfaces. That was one of my priorities when I selected it, given I have a log home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
