brooklynwx99 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 the MJO is a bit overstated. nobody gave a flying fuck about it from like 2003 until 2021 until the last couple of winters. they didn't really care because it just kept snowing... now people need to overattribute the lack of snow to a single variable when it isn't that simple is it important? absolutely! but it's not the end all be all 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking this too. It’s all you hear now. It’s just the latest attribute now. There’s never any one smoking gun, I think we’ve all learned this over the years. But some folks(and not just in here) like to hang their hat on something, so lately it’s been all about that. We were due for some bad fortune, it’s been here starting in 21-22, so we just grin and endure. Being away from the board and enjoying winter for 4-5 days was great. A break from this stuff does wonders. Got to limit time here, when things aren’t looking so good. And check back when something of interest pops up. Back on Saturday the 13th, I had 62 degrees here, so if we hit 60, or close to it again Friday, so be it and just enjoy it. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 The latest collective optimism from reading a few subforms is that Feb 10 on will rock (maybe hopefully probably ) I do not think anyone has a clue that correlates to good predictability going out to mid February relating to sensible weather (because it’s insanely complex) I see reason for some optimism but that is all I would say at this point , bc you can usually find that in most patterns and not that many end up producing well for SE SNE , higher probability more for general SNE (especially if active ) and especially CNE , I think most tend to produce pack for elevated NNE as long as they are active (regarding feb 10 to march 10 period )and that is just the Climo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was nice to sled/ski with the kids for 3-4 straight days at night or weekends. Just have to find the silver lining. Looks like I will be back up to Norbrook Brewery instead for a few rounds of disc golf. Awesome piece of property in Colebrook. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 3 hours ago, Sey-Mour Snow said: GFS coming around to the Friday torch now some agreement on temps breaking out into the 50s Friday at least south of the Pike .. Near 60 south of 84 looking possible .. Long range also moved towards EURO / EPS with the torch .. Here's the first 5 days of February It sure is weird generally seeing more GEFS members and more GFS Op runs wanna be cold....thats the complete reverse of what we've seen most of the last 4 years when we have gotten faked out in the long range....it may be the typical tendency or "rumored tendency" as Tip said that the GFS just generally does worse in El Nino winters and the EPS/Euro tend to do better.

I think that is a very important point, when there is nothing imminent it’s a generally unhealthy idea for a winter weather lover to spend hours a day on this forum. More so ..if they are bothered and baited by warmistas, but even in general . Unless someone literally has no other hobby or outlet it seems very odd to just rehash medium to long range hope at periods that have proven to have little accuracy for periods that are longer than ..I dunno 60-90 minutes a day . I think it’s just so easy to fall into the trap of checking in on posts and getting pulled into the drama or the day by reaching into your pocket and logging in at least now we have a minor event later today / into Wednesday am and something that hopefully sticks around for Sunday (thou Sunday has a chance for being depressing as it looks like rain for I would say half the SNE forum as currently modeled . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find myself getting roped into that sometimes...especially during the fall if cane season blows....but by mid-late February, I plan my escape by way of fantasy draft prep if winter blows. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gfs is now 48-52 instead of 38-42 I’d call that more caving. But it’s still 72 hours away so let’s see which is more right. I still think a blend of the super warm euro and the coldest gfs runs so probably high around 50 or so 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And any chance we do have for a coating of snow is tonight when temps drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
