Misc Winter 22-23 Whamby and Banter Thread Part 2

[Brent]

I'm gonna be ready for a warmup after today here ? and still got 2 more days

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Fat lady warming up.

I think it’s over, guys

 

[Iceagewhereartthou]

If this is what a 3rd year La Nina is like I vote we never have another one, ever again. Who's with me?

 

[Bham 99]

We had such a promising fall. It cooled off pretty quickly and consistent compared to a lot of years. I knew we'd pay for it.

 

[RainlessSnowless & Grumpy]

C'est fini

 

[Mitch West]

Welp. A yeeting HP & a cold rain.

Shocker. Can't believe anyone thought we were getting anything frozen in this abysmal winter.

lol

That Drier than average in California forecast by the farmers almanac...


Swing and a miss.

 

[smast16]

Where's the button. Let's just skip ahead to spring, where we'll be even more disappointed when it flips cold and March is below normal.

Guaranteed. And just barely too warm to snow.

Boy, woke up this morning to doom and gloom. What happened to all the 50 50 is stronger, south slowing the flow posts mentioned yesterday and setting us up for a good cad storm Sun?

This one is also dead, Jim. All of the winter storm threats are dead. It looks rainy and mild over the next 14 days.

I guess I can go ahead and cancel 2023/24 winter, now. Maybe by 2030 we will have a chance at winter weather, again.

 

[rburrel2]

Still have the 2nd half of February to score something... no point to give up hope yet.

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Weatherbell sub about to say bye bye

Dang, where is the real @Rain Cold

They're probably not going to get any better from here either. It doesn't matter if it's La Nina, El Nino, 4th year Nina, Nada, Nino^-1 West, or anything else. Every winter is above normal and you have to scratch and claw to even get an event to track, much less come to fruition. We spend the bulk of our climo-favored time +7 now, with maybe some mercy cold late in the season and through the Spring.

I used to enjoy heading into Winter and looked forward to all of the seasonal forecasts. Not anymore. It's simply just foolish to produce a cold outlook anymore. There seem to be literally no combination of variables that lead to anything lower than maybe a -1 for the winter. It sucks.

Who dis? And what did you do with the real @Rain Cold

Welcome to global warming

Just got my generator… ice storms off? What gives! ?

 

[FallsLake]

We've had stretches of bad years in the past. Hopefully this is another that's about to end. Three years of la nina have not been good for us in the SE. The mid-south is another story. Memphis has been the winter storm capital (for at least my latitude).

We haven't had a El Nino in a few winters. It will be better.
