Any comment on the 0z pony?

I wonder why?

[Torch Tiger]

what models looked good?  Besides the voodoo smoothed-out LR ensemble means.  indv members kinda looked like shit going forward, besides a few wilds

[Torch Tiger]

The month ends mild, but not nearly as mild as I thought it would.  thus my mild (overall 1.5=+3) February call crashed and burned.

All Cold All of The Time for Steve

Despite the clarity the PV will leave

Steve happily waites w shovel in hand while scooter sits w a scowl

Snow never falls but Steve finds use for the shovel when the dogs move their bowels. 

Alas the maps looked great but the low had a nipple

That is the only reason SNE won't be crippled.

Nice job

There once was a fellow named Ray,
Who predicted winter each day,
Though his novel was grand,
Snow slipped out of his hand,
And his forecasts just melted away.

There once was an old man named Steve,

Who thought he had good forecasting tricks up his sleeve

But after a year or two of limited success doing Ginxy's Gale

He decided to bail

While some appreciated the effort and game him no slack

He opted instead to become a permanent Monday AM quarterback.

My snow forecast was actually pretty good this year...and I was too warm.

No..I'm just adding in empirical facts. 

Previous two were dumpster fires.

There once was a man named Ginx

His winter call stinx 

He called out Ray

AKA KGAY

Steve, put the fucking charts away.

I think if you did a poll, most would agree I'm not shy about acknowledging poor efforts.

There is nothing wrong with calling yourself out. I do that when I’m wrong. It’s good for integrity too. Nothing worse than not acknowledging or masking what went wrong.

My work was pretty flawed, too...getting the snowfall largely right was luck bc I didn't get alot of the pattern right.

This website is gold. Anyway, another beautiful morning out there. 10 mile jog on the books, and I dare say my nape may be slightly sunburned.

Sounds and smells like Spring out there, I am ready... ..

[ROOSTA]

Poetic prose. 
Don't change your day jobs! LOL 

[WxWatcher007]

Will can probably speak to both of these in greater detail. 

[BombsAway1288]

Logan hasn’t had a daily low temp above freezing since 1/2/25.
 

Very consistent cold these first 2 months of the year. That changes this week. Back is certainly broken

Looks like a more of the same… cold/dry warm/wet type with compressed EC flow. Doesn’t mean it won’t spit flakes but I don’t see anything worthy of premature ejaculation. 

[RUNNAWAYICEBERG]

Poetic fights!

For sure. Heard the red wing blackbirds out there for the first time, too. Always a sign that spring is approaching.

Well done, RAIB. With your wordage you may attract a new and enthusiastic group to the climate discussion. As always ….

Ditty says you never make a forecast. He says you're ascared.

[NeonPeon]

Robins strutting all over the park. Sun feeling properly warm. Almost no snow left. False dawns mud and fog till June. Was it too much to ask for a single significant snowfall?

[weatherwiz]

This is nuts. Made a little bit of progress on back patio. Just sucks it only gets a few hours of sun. 

[weatherwiz]

And WTF is going on in here? Some folks may want to get checked for carbon monoxide poisoning 

[radarman]

Just a special morning, sun out, snow stretched out for miles across the open fields on the valley floor in Hadley.  Ice fishermen on ponds.  Ski area parking lots filling up.   Folks feeling healthy and alive. 

Heck of a winter stretch it's been. Imagine pining for mud season.

[CoastalWx]

I’m ready for mud. Let’s get the yard cleaned up, grass growing, and BBQs going.
