Absolutely, and someone living in DC would kill for Ray's 43" even though he's about ready to throw himself off the Tobin with that seasonal total. All about expectations.

 

Anyways, not to derail too much....here's what we got for this threat:

East basket: NAM/Euro/UKMET

West Basket: GFS/ICON/RGEM

In between: GGEM

:lol: ... wee bit of consternation that the compromised solution happens to be spelled like,  G -G -E -M

Hey I bought gloves there one year when I forgot to pack them for our 2 week ski trip. They turned out to be awesome. I remember in 01 going through Gorham and marveling at the 4 to 6 feet of snow at elevation just up the road on 16. Someday my man someday.  Hang in there

Yea, great post. One thing you never see me do is telling people what to be happy and satisfied with.

Have to say as melted as this winter is. I am satiated with it. That blizzard was pretty much a decade event. Can't even complain about meltouts. Look forward to maybe a surprise Sat. Even an inch and a flash freeze could bring about a beautiful morning like this morning. Any snow lover who wasn't smilin this morning isn't

Don't get me wrong, I love a deep snow pack, but seasonal total is more important to me....a year like 2004-2005 that had over a 100", but really only one interlude with deep pack didn't bother me. One of my favorite seasons. 1993-1994 was overrated in my mind because I was "only" like 10-15" above average.

Like you said to each his own. You guys bust my chops about windex and minor events but that's my jam.

I honestly enjoyed a light to moderate wet, pasty snow that didn't screw me more than the I did the blizzard. 100% truthful.

12" of sand with fairly meager rates most of the day, while everyone around me gets 24-30"...compared to a quick 4.5" of scenic paste, while most other spots got 2" on the grass.

Honest to god truth, give me the latter...unless I am going for a seasonal record or something like that.

Yeah I enjoy the snowfalls. I love a deep pack too...but as I get older...you start craving the big ones more vs worrying about a pack. At least for me.

I do find it interesting that we all have our personal favorite parts of winter / weather in general.

Some like high totals, some like pack, some like big events, some like high dews, temps etc, severe (ha!) 

Expand  

Hopefully this thing Saturday is at least dynamic. I think we all agree if the storm is coming let it be interesting with winds, rates, duration, etc. Weaksauce spotty stuff is the worst.

There are three storms that pissed me off to an extreme level and really left me bitter.

1) Dec 5, 2003

2) PD II

3) 1/29/22

Dishonorable Mention: The second in the sequence of double barrel event during December 1996.

I definitely can't rattle off my biggest disappointments... must be a coping mechanism as I bury my disappointment.

That's funny regarding 12/5/03. I got hosed in the other direction down in Marshfield. This area had about 20".

They don't have the sting like they used to. December 2019 and that storm last year on 2/2/21 disappointed, but I was kind of like, oh well. 

I think for me, I get aggravated over the seasons being lousy vs missing a storm. When you go for months and have 15" to show for it, Scooter Smash.
