Aren't you the one who always says to enjoy your weather because it's the only weather you've got ?

I'm not JB. But I do often say that it is only wx and that things like having good health are way more important. Believe me I know it after having and getting past Covid. Wx is random...nobody is out to get you. It just is what it is. I have my preferences like cold but whatever.

I can say between 2009 and 2014 I was spoiled and made to expect snow every year or two when down here that’s just not the case. We usually only get a snowstorm every 4 years and to crack the top 5 of snow droughts we’d have to go without snow for 6 years. I hope that dosent happen but you gotta break records sometime

@GaWx is right though, I don’t get that bothered by the weather . Before 2018 I always got pissed if it was crap , since then most of the time I’m not that pissed or pissed at all . Save for my rants sometimes in exceptionally bad conditions.

If in an alternative universe "mother nature" were trying to be devious, be a jerk, try to get you upset by giving you wx you don't like, etc,. that would be a totally different story and even I might get pissed. But I know that's not the case and is why I'm so "serenity now" about it. If something is totally out of anyone's control, I don't normally get mad about something I don't like. It was already predestined to happen a certain way, regardless. We don't know what that destiny is in advance only because the models are not nearly smart enough to tell us. If they were perfect, we'd always know in advance exactly what wx we're going to get. Of course, then tracking wx would be more boring without the uncertainties.

When I was much younger, that was more of a challenge and I sometimes got pissed about wx.

OMG, it is literally the end of time...
 
I had the pleasure of replacing my water heater this weekend so at least that was a nice distraction I suppose. Nothing like sucking up water in the basement with the shop vac, just can’t escape dampness much like this cold rain outside. Need a period of sunny and dry to boost spirits, then I will be down to track the late winter great white buffalo one final time. Maybe a lucky ULL or something, I’m not picky at this point.
