Looks like ass, but it’s only 3/20 and my pack is wiped with just a few puddles and piles remaining. So we’re ahead of the curve right now.

It's been a funny thing where "attribution" is clearly in tact, yet we are perceptively being held at the farthest end of the cold side as is physically possible given the laws of nature.  jeez

Another winter in the books. This winter was different than past winters with more cold air. Problem was suppression this time around. Who thought that was going to be an issue this past winter?

 

Finished with 13 inches here. Another below average winter.

No up refers to elevation. Whenever I use that term, that’s what I mean 

Well, I meant it in terms of latitude, and I know scooter did, too, since he said "Vermont to Dendrite"....I think it depends on storm context.

At least you have one, regardless...I have neither.

We were tracking a Big cape storm 11 years ago hit on the 25th or so I think. Some guidance had a monster blizzard for all of SNE at 96 hours out.. 962 on the BM

Yeah, the 'behemoth'..I mentioned this one a few weeks ago on here - wondering if we'd see something similar late..but I know it was mostly a blueball situation for everyone west of hyannis, including me. That was a monster though.

Embrace the warminista inside you. That’s what I did. If you can’t beat em, join em.

Today's date means nothing to winter ... or spring for that matter.

The reality of nature does not oblige these human invented boundaries. Like dates of time in space...etc.    

There's really nothing in celestial mechanics (the machinery of the solar system ...), and the implications therefrom for Earth's perspective, that gives physical significance for having an Equinox occur.  It's merely a geometrical happenstance that must occur as the Earth rotates with a fixed 23.5 tilted axis (from the vertical), while then endlessly revolving around a relative fixed point in space, the sun.  

Which calling these aspect fixed is really approximating anyway... but for the sake of discussion.  The sun does wobble as it's retinue of planetary gravitational bodies et al, move around it and induce their own pull.   There's also changes in the orbits (delta eccentricities) that are small, but non-zero over the many Millennia ... But for the sake of discussion, it's not a violation of reasoning to just assume the sun a fix point in space (relative constant), and then the aspect of Earth's tilted axis then moving around it along an ~ circular pathway, as dependably repeating for billions of years ...  

At some point along that constant journey around the sun that repeats every full year,  the axis of tilt has to pass a point along the way where the 24 hour day ends up evenly split ( "Equi" ) between day and night ("nox") ... = Equinox.   That's all it is.  The 22nd and the 19th are just as important.

That's about it.   The winter doesn't stop, nor does spring begin just because there is a system of human invented Laws that must be obeyed by citizens.  Otherwise, there would not be a single year since all this was created some 4.5 billion years ago, that didn't end up with some sort of misdemeanor charge if not an arrest for something more criminal.  4.5 billion March 20th guilty of cite-able offenses ....

Sort of like saying to a heavyset woman..."You sweat less than any other fat girl I've known"...and that isn't a shot at Mano's 

It's been awhile, but I've gotten pizza there a few times. It was the real NY/North End style pizza that I love. Not the doughy Greek bullshit that many pizzerias serve.

Mano's is good...as I mentioned it was not a shot at Mano's...

Give Domino's NY Style Pizza a try....I
