OMG NAMES  change is like looking at a new set of sheets and it tells you on the fitted which is the side and which is the bottom/top...HOW THE HELL DID WE SURVIVE BEFORE THIS...OMG. The first time I saw it on our sheets I could not believe my eyes..what the flip!

Somebody probably put them on the wrong way, sat on the bed and slipped and broke their arse and sued the sheet maker.Now they have to print warnings how to do it right to cover themselves.Next, a You Tube tutorial to demonstrate the "proper" way to change bed sheets so a 40 year veteran like yourself is "schooled",LOL.

The Law Firms of Dewey, Cheatam and Howe and Shyster and Finagle handled these cases. They were full of "sheet".

This sounds like the same law firm used in the McDonalds case back in the day when the guy sued over hot coffee; burning his mouth because the coffee cup wasn't labeled as "hot coffee".  I mean in his defense how was he supposed to know the coffee was hot if the cup wasn't labeled properly?  Clearly the NWS is asking the same questions; so hired an entire team to make sure the Public can properly informed about how dangerous the cold really is?

Farmer's Almanac calling for a wet milder winter here . Whatever that is worth.

LOL. just be happy you have hair to be grey!

On a more serious note, has anybody been in contact with Mugsy? He hasn't posted in a long time.

Good, Doc, glad Mugs is ok.

Bastardi’s Winter forecast is out, and there’s no sugar coating it - it’s pretty brutal. Above-average temperatures and below-average snowfall November through March. That said, the ideas that I alluded to a few days ago lead me to believe that all hope is not lost, at all, even though I largely agree with him during the opening half of the Winter season. The same forcing mechanisms that will likely lead to the anomalous warmth early will sow the seeds of their own destruction later I think we are just going to need to be patient this year.

Winter in the mid-atlantic is history. It's been years since we can recall having anything decent. Doesn't matter if it's la Nina or el Nino. I think patience is one thing on this board that we've learned we don't have time to give. The flips/transitions get put off for weeks and next thing you know it's spring again. Fingers crossed though.

With Bastardi and the Farmers Almanac seeming to be agreeing, it could very well turn out to be a killer winter.Most long range winter forecasts last year had this area pegged for "major snowstorms" which did not happen.
Anyway, up here at 700 feet in the LHV, some of those marginal temp storms will produce good snow while the City gets what was said back in the day "Snow, becoming mixed with and changing to sleet then rain".As rb said could be back loaded.That March 2018 was a classic snow producer, had a 27 inch snowstorm up here.

Take these long range forecasts with a grain of salt…I’ve been around long enough to know that weather forecasting can be a humbling experience. Take for instance this so called hyperactive hurricane season supposedly up on us. How’s that working out? Besides all it can take is one or two snow events to reach the average total in a given location even in the most hostile of patterns. Take 1983 for example. That winter we were in the throes of a strong ElNino. We were flooded with much above temps for the majority of the winter. Then came the massive blizzard in February. See my point?

That's true. I think much of what I was referring to was something I mentioned last year which was not just looking like winter but feeling like it. Sure, a 60 inch snowstorm would be epic, but if every day before that and after was mild 50s, that would suck.
