Yes, this last 4-5 days has been painfully depressing. Frozen, bare landscape

Ahhh those were my teenage years! Some of the best times….in music anyway.  
 

And 4-8” was a great storm.

80s averaged more snow down here than the 90s.

There were some good mid-Atlantic winters that decade. Esp southern and coastal mid-Atlantic. Like jersey shore area down to Delmarva. 
 

But they were brutal up here. There were basically 3 solid winters that decade but no true blockbuster winters. ‘86-87 was close I guess. And there were some awful rats. Just god-awful snow totals in spots multiple years.

I miss the winters of the early 2000s.

Even in Philly, some of the big storms slammed just SE of men with epicosity.  I remember the disappointment watching  heavy snow in South Jersey on the Philly network tv shows.

The last 12 years of the past 2 cold AMO phases, basically 82-94 and 32-44 the MA southward cleaned up in the snow department...whether thats a statistical significance I don't know but it was pointed out to me once years ago how well places like ORF/RDU/CLT/ATL/BNA did in those two 12 year stretches relatively speaking as far as snow and even cold...it would make some sense they'd benefit from a cold Atlantic as a whole because the warmer phase, even back then probably was conducive to some degree of a WAR

Yeah it’s possible there’s a connection. Those were both brutal stretches here too. That ‘32-44 stretch was nearly as bad as the ‘79-‘92 stretch here.

Want one. Nice machine. Watched it all and just enjoyed it. I am sick. Wind packed concrete.

 

[TauntonBlizzard2013]

Probably would have been better off with just the bucket

No other game in town, both GFS & CMC tried to sneak in a redeveloper around same time frame. GFS just too far south and CMC a little messy, but trackable I suppose. PAC flow is so fast it hurts our chances unfortunately

6Z GFS op is about the only thing interesting I see this a.m. Now lets see it shuffle that chance a dozen times between now and the 6th

The EURO looks more par for the course for Methuen.

[40/70 Benchmark]

GFS is a Methuen special order.....classic Miller B-East. That said, it probably ends up more of a Miller E....as in eat shit.

[CoastalWx]

Again we pray GFS guidance is correct.

How the hell did that kid get up there? Reminds of those highway signs with graffiti. You have to be a trapeze artist from Barnum and Bailey to do that lol.

Of course but the point remains…another EOR special and I’ll lead the crew off the bridge myself, and I’d go first.  

[40/70 Benchmark]

Looks like its a bit more PNA ridging that allows that little wave to dig enough....who knows.

I marvel at highway graffiti as well. I can never wrap my mind around on how they were able to do it. Looks like only spider man could.

 Never mind the fact that it likely needs to be done under the cover of night.
