If you’re salty now... I can’t imagine what you’re going to be like after next winter when it is bone dry and you don’t see one threat modeled.

That’s fine as long as it’s warm. My handicap has gone up 5 just because I can’t play every week. # ---- em

Yeah! I stop paying attention to my handicap. At the course I play at it has been so waterlogged and it makes it almost impossible to hit the ball without fatting it or thinning it. I just go out to hang out with my friends.

Unfortunately, I was saying last week I had more faith in the Feb 6-7th system giving the SE snow than this storm and I was right. Atlanta has never had a double digit snow in recorded history and the models were showing Atlanta getting 15-20+ inches...that wasn't happening.

This is by far one of the worst winters I’ve ever experienced and it gets worse by the second, minute, hour, day

I use to love tracking snowstorms, now I am pretty much over it.....literally weeks of tracking what 90% of the time ends up as nothing....give me severe and canes to track any day. Though the severe season here in eastern NC has been all but non existent the last few years.....still I am a wind junkie so hopefully we get a few decent storms this season.

I also suspect there will be one more snow threat to crush our hopes with sometime in the first 10 days of March.....

I don’t understand it’s like things avoid trending better for us, we never get a good trend, it’s impossible, it’s always bad trends

It certainly seems that way, though that little marginal 2"event did swing our way......but its never a 10" event that swings our way, if we do bust to the good its marginal but when we fail we fail like no one else can.
 
This winter gets a D here. Had one 3 inch snow that was gone in 24 hours. Maybe I should be generous and give it a C for average since 3 inches seems to be what we average for snow here the last decade.

It sure does seem like it, doesn’t it? Like you’d think it would be 50/50, but it feels more like 95/5.

I try to just tune out the models post D5, but I have to admit the King Kong hype sucked me in. Ugh.
 
Still going with a D- here, only savior was the inch of crappy, pathetic slush last month that melted instantly and didn’t even cover all surfaces because it fell after a monsoon of rain. A pathetic storm, really, and one I can’t say was worth tracking, but the shutout prevents the F. At least I got up at 3:30 AM and did a Jeb Walk in it to get some cool photos and video, but that’s about all it had going for it as I couldn’t even tell it had snowed that night by noon the following day. And to add an additional kick in the nuts, not far away (like a couple miles) seemed to have gotten significantly more snow judging by the snow left over in some shady spots even a couple days later.
