Misc Winter 22-23 Whamby and Banter Thread Part 2

You are probably right. This period checked all the boxes here crippling snow, crippling ice, snow on snow, snow on frozen ground that accumulated from the first flake. I wish young weenie SD had known the next 2 decades would be dookie so he would have appreciated it more

One has to go through dookie in order to be able to appreciate. You're welcome!?

How can anyone not go outside today and then realistically want it to be cold? It’s phenomenal outside.

Because pollen sucks. Pollen ruins spring, humidity ruins summer and disappointment ruins winter! Give me fall all year round. Pleasant temps, pretty leaves and comfortable temps
 
Well.... not sure we can eek out anything for the books so far as snowfall in Concord this season. I'm shocked and just ready to move on and forget about this entire winter...
Here's to Winter 23/24.
(Unless we have some weird late March early April event).. fingers crossed but just barely.
 
Less snowfall and even no snowfall shouldn’t be shocking. This is what we’ve trended to for a while. You’ll have a blip every few years but the southern snows are going by the wayside like the snows on Kilimanjaro.

That said with an active pacific jet I do think the mountains will continue to support some good snows for years to come.

Agreed on the towel throw. March cold, of course, and as expected, is weak sauce. Really wish we'd just keep the 70s moving forward. The 50s are going to feel really chilly and annoying through the rest of March.

Lesson learned this winter, Western trough will continue until proven otherwise. Don't know why, but we're stuck in a never ending western trough pattern. Hopefully it's Nina, but I doubt it.

I really think it was hunga tonga that blew this winter up in the SE. All that water vapor in the stratosphere really messed with the Arctic.

I remember Kilimanjaro was supposed to lose its glaciers by 2020, which hasn’t happened yet.
 
Cheston, this reminds me of the 93 team that was bad, then heated up in the second half of the season then peaked going into the tournament. And Franklin mirrors Forrest in how he affects the game and the wins lately. All we need now is a blizzard, lol, to help make a run.

It just boggles my mind that they waited this long in the season to start playing this well. I just hope they can keep momentum into next year.

Its lost 80% since the early 20th century according to some studies.

Oh, I know it’s losing them and it’ll almost certainly eventually lose all its glaciers, I’m just saying the doomiest predictions that get all the publicity haven’t come true. My understanding is that it’s not really the temperatures that are concerning with Kilimanjaro, either, it’s just gotten too dry to combat the sublimation.

Correction, I think the Date was 2015.. (and) 2020..

Yep, same with some summer arctic sea ice predictions. I definitely remember some predictions of arctic sea ice being completely gone by 2020 back in the late 2000s. Hasn’t happened. Will it happen by 2100? Maybe / probably, but people are too aggressive with these predictions oftentimes (and the most shocking are the ones that get covered, of course).

People either lie for some sort of gain or they don't understand all of the mechanisms at play and end up making wild and alarmist proclamations.
