Misc Winter 22-23 Whamby and Banter Thread Part 2

I’m not expecting any winter storm but I hope those of us east of the apps are ready for days on days of 37-42 degree rain, wind, and fog. I see endless chicken and salmon stews in my future with this expected pattern of cold cold rains. Personally I love them because we get plenty of warmth throughout the year so it’s better to enjoy the cold where you can get it.
Hopefully this does not happen. I'd at least like to see a few 65-75 degree days along the way.
 
He's talking about mid-Feb cause Nina toldyouso
The low 80's are about as high as we go in February I think. March could be another story though. We could also have snow in March. One of our biggest snowstorms was on March 24 1983. Right at a foot here
 
You eat sushi?
I love sushi! Best I ever had was in Downtown Disney a few days ago, or whatever they call it now. It was at a place called Splitsville, a bowling alley and restaurant in one. And great fish n chips there as well!
 
This one! Crab salad on top, tempura shrimp in middle, cream cheese, dallop of siracha, no cucumbers! ( I don’t like cucumbers) man it was absolutely amazing! View attachment 130910
Man I slammed some sushi yesterday. I despise cucumber. I need Avocado or cream cheese substituted for the cucumber if it’s in the roll
I order.
 
Is anybody else in the middle of house construction? I don't think I'm gona make it through this one.
I will gladly get delayed for snow, ice or sleet but rain? Naw! Friggin (nicer word) sick of this slop! I despise red clay!???

The people that bought some other property close by keep trying to clear and burn. I saw the guy on top of the huge pile of
trees trying to pour gas I guess in to get lit. Can't get it going for dayssss. This is getting ridiculous and it's been raining for hours this morning. Urgggggggg
 
Ready for this winter to end so we'll be out of our misery and hope for better results next year. Hopefully without a ---- La Nina
Yeah it doesn't look good. Models have jumped back and forth but the consensus is warm for the next month or so. If CFS is right (..for once) even Webber's thoughts of a cool down at the end of February are in jeopardy.

Last frame of the 0z CFS for February 22nd:

Has rain in southern Canada.
 
Obviously taking everything from the long range GFS with a mound of salt at this point. It’ll most likely show a completely different solution at 12z. Ensembles aren’t showing anything close to what the operational is showing storm wise, other than a trend toward a potential favorable pattern.

That being said, I have had a cabin in Little Switzerland booked for February 1-5 since November and the potential has my attention. I have gone from anticipating rain and temps in the 50s to the prospect of getting snowed in, or having to adjust my arrival date so I can even make it up there. Could be an interesting couple weeks seeing how this unfolds.
Well from the looks of the past few GFS runs my original expectation of rain and temps in the 50s is getting more probable. May have picked a really bad weekend to book a place in the mountains. Ensembles still giving me a glimmer of hope, but it’s fading. Might have to root for warm and dry while I’m up there at this point. At least I’d be able to do some hiking and get some use out of the fire pit. Nothings worse than going on vacation and being stuck in the house the whole time because of rain.

That’s some pretty funny pandemic humor. I always did think those arrows were silly.

As long as we’re sharing pandemic humor, my mother was told that the vaccine was the mark of the antichrist. I still haven’t found out who told her that but when I do, someone is going to get a two piece combo from me.

The vaccine may not have been the mark of the antichrist, but its benefits were grossly oversold and its negative side effects were grossly understated

That's what happens when people run out (or are forced by authoritarian government leaders under duress) to take a form of medical treatment that was cobbled together in less than a year without long-term testing.

Did your mother take the vaccine?

I need to move to Buffalo. They are guaranteed snow every year. Even in the horrible 2011-12 winter, they got 37", which was their lowest seasonal snowfall going back to 1940.
 
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.

Seems it is getting harder and harder to get snow in NC outside the mountains. Our climate just sucks for snow now.
