Good post. I agree. We need more objective reporting. I admit I called winter weather over for Atlanta, but that's not really saying much since Atlanta has a very good chance of not receiving a significant winter weather event each year. I could make that call every July and probably be right about 75% of the time.

I have about 2 more weeks before I hang it up for a good snowfall..in 2 weeks if it looks likely I'll make Feb 15th-20th without it I'm out. This ain't 1928, 1960, 1993 or even 2009 for that matter. It's 2023 and mother nature has to prove it can still sniw 2 inches or more here after those dates. I won't believe it until I see it

You must have forgot that you hung it up last week. I guess you changed your mind?

Only chaos because you and Webber don't like it when someone doesn't ride your coattail into the warm abyss. Learn to accept being challenged on your opinions, it will make you a better man when you grow up.

I literally have been posting about the changes occurring, but you’re too much of a to even pay attention. People like you see what they wanna see. Blinded by the running in your head. No wonder you were temporarily banned on this site. biggest bama storm of 93. I’m laughing at that. Thats hilarious. Don’t make me get your father to teach you a lesson

I miss the days when the seasons were normal. Nowadays you don't even know if winter will ever arrive, then when spring gets here winter seems to arrive. Mother nature is confused.

What part of Tennessee do you live in? I’m 40 minutes north of Nashville and I’ve had about 31 inches of snow in the 2021 and 2022 winters combined. So far this season I’m at 2.5 inches. I definitely hear you on wanting more snow but 100 inches a season would wear off the novelty of snow pretty quickly. I definitely don’t feel like we live in an area where we don’t know if winter will ever arrive. Usually we have a couple of good winters followed by a bad one, sometimes 2 bad ones in a row. We are far enough north that 3 bad winters in a row rarely happens. Since 2015 the winters in the middle Tennessee area have been way snowier than the previous 10 years. 2017,2019 and 2020 are the only winters I’ve had less then 5 inches of snow in a season since the 2015 winter. I need 2.5 more inches of snow this season to make it the first time since I’ve lived here in 2006 to have 3 winters in a row of at least 5 inches or more of snow. NC and states south of us have definitely been snow starved but I just don’t get the posters I see from Tennessee claiming we don’t have winters anymore.

Unfortunately, your bedside manner leaves a lot to be desired and your posts many times come off as condescending and aggressive. Then people react the way they feel is appropriate to your challenging posts and the whole thing snowballs most of the time. Keeps the moderators busy so we can justify our hours and earn our pay, I guess.
 
At this point I wonder if RDU has its first winter without measurable snow since 2005-06. La Niña Februaries have not been promising.

So then you would agree that the "said chaos" is a 2 way street.....reading into my comments and the choice to react to said comments??

Are "challenging" posts not allowed?

Just doing my part to keep you guys busy!!
 
If we can keep this same general look on the modes/ensembles tonight it'll be huge... Approaching the time where there shouldn't be huge continental sized adjustments to the major players soon.

I would prefer questioning or clarifying posts instead of challenging and aggressive ones. I know tone is hard to infer in print, but your posting style over a long period of time is well documented. There are many examples of speaking in absolutes and not showing interest or value in others' opinions. Most things you post are argumentative instead of showing a perceived desire to have a meaningful dialogue with other members, which is the reason most of us are here.

That's all I have to say. I wanted to be as real as I could to let you know how many of us perceive your posts. I hope that you take no offense to my posts, because that was not my intent. Feel free to send me a dm if you want to continue this conversation.

18z is unrealistic. Flood waters would freeze. On to the ensembles, anyway.

I experienced something similar a few years ago when I lived in Massachusetts. Big cutter caused rapid snowmelt and put down 2 inches of rain. It flooded the yard and the next day it dropped back into the teens and froze everything. I had huge frozen puddles that stayed there until spring.
