Snow or no snow, this winter is going to stubbornly hang on here as there is no easy way out to true spring this year.

Id much rather have the snow that SF and Tucson are getting, those places which arent even supposed to get snow.... ever lol.

why the hate here out of the blue? Is it because you like to tell me how to run a landscaping business. I have been in the business for over 20 years successfully yet you try to tell me that I do not have the proper schedule for trimming shrubs. Please that was the best one Ive heard yet.

and as far as the Steve D comment I put in there, what is trolling about it. Some poster posted a link to tristate (why I have no idea). That post was totally shredded as inaccurate by Steve D. So where is the trolling there? Its more to inform the other guy that the post he put up is wishcasting nonsense which was refuted by Steve D as such. Because it didnt favor snow why is that a bad thing?

SMQ should be labelling something else. Huge difference between Bedminster and Somerville. I mean they might as well go to Morris County for that reading.

Mt Holly snow maps? They have generally been on target but if you are referring to when I called them out last storm for 3-5 inch totals when we got one inch here. Yea well you be the judge.

Please dont try to throw things up here trying to make me look like a troll because you dont like that I like heat. The same nonsense goes on in reverse in the summer. Anytime I post in heat threads I am attacked and called names who is the troll then. Its a weather board. I like weather but not necessarily snow and I LOVE heat but for some reason its okay to rain on the heat lovers parade.

I can't help but wonder why someone who admits to loving heat and not liking snow would call himself winterwarlock. Wouldn't heatmonger, or sweatpirate be more appropriate?

Whenever you post, I think of Private Joker's commentary in the second part of Full Metal Jacket / SE Asia sequence...

Pogue Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body armor?

Private Joker: A peace symbol, sir.

Pogue Colonel: Where’d you get it?

Private Joker: I don’t remember, sir.

Pogue Colonel: What is that you’ve got written on your helmet?

Private Joker: “Born to Kill”, sir.

Pogue Colonel: You write “Born to Kill” on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What’s that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?

Private Joker: No, sir.

Pogue Colonel: You’d better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant **** on you.

Private Joker: Yes, sir.

Pogue Colonel: Now answer my question or you’ll be standing tall before the man.

Private Joker: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir.

Pogue Colonel: The what?

Private Joker: The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir.

Winterwarlock who's a so called landscaper who loves 100 plus heat and droughts which is awesome for lawns... was banned on another board for good reason. Btw what massive snowy winters we have had and I can't wait for next winter even though we can still get snow the next couple of weeks.

I liked what pazzo said earlier-- lets root for 100 degrees in the summer and 100 inches of snow in the winter!

William,

this is hilarious. :lol:

The lines in the first half of that movie are just legendary. I have all the great clips saved to my youtube favorites, lol. I personally like the jelly doughnut scene the best and Private Pyle losing it in the bathroom is just incredible. Full marks to D'Onofrio, Modine and the drill seargeant R. Lee Ermey for their brilliance in that scene and the first half of the movie. D'Onofrio never did a better acting job since that movie just fantastic.

So in the spirit of the Oscars, not exact but the best I can do:

Why is your footlocker unlocked? Private Pyle if there is one thing I hate it is an unlocked footlocker, you know that don't you.

Sir Yes, Sir.

Get Down!

Well then, let's just see if anything missing.

Holy Jesus, What the **** is that

What is that!, Privat Pyle?

Sir, A jelly doughnut, sir!

A Jelly Doughnut?

Is chow allowed in the barracks, Private Pyle?

Sir, No Sir!

Are you allowed to eat jelly doughnuts, Private Pyle?

Sir, No Sir!

And why not?

Sir because I am too heavy, sir!

BECAUSE YOU ARE A DISGUSTING FAT BODY PRIVATE PYLE!

ROFLMAO!:thumbsup::lol:

Edit: I missed some lines but I don't feel like retyping so here you go:

Figure this is banter so, DT's Spring outlook is very disappointing. Looking at April and May and seeing below normal temps and above normal precip just has a way of immiserating me. Last year was such a swift, hari-Kari like end to winter--between a big feb 26 storm and 60 degree sunny days 3 weeks later--it just was perfect. I've been sick non-stop since coming home from New Orleans trip first week of February--22 llbs off!--and the one thing I'd want NOW is decent spring weather. I know DTs not the only one to forecast this--Nina Springs are known to suck--but just looking at that is quite dispiriting. Spring is traditionally my most hated season because it promises more than it delivers in our area it seems most of the time. Last year was truly a gift from Olympus.

People take their forecasts to heart :wub:

it was great to see snow again before the pattern flops in 1-2 weeks, i never expected to see more than a few inches on the ground, i saw lightning/thunder accompanied by heavy sleet..It was a cool storm. Awfully modeled, though. I honestly never looked at forecasts for my area from the NWS. Im constantly watching models ect i can handle it myself. Obviously others take their forecasts to the grave. :wacko:
