Between Snow's entire face as a park and K's building of a "Stash", and long range outlooks on the euro models showing a cold and snowy winter for the NE, it's looking like a fun winter!
 
Here's hoping!!!

The last two winters have been substandard in my eyes. I miss the winters of the early 90s when we got dumped on every other day and I was able to build massive snow forts in my front yard :)
 
we got a lot of snow here last year but its still flat everywhere :P

Mt snow looks dope as fuck with that huge park face...im mad jealous
 
I agree.

But here's a question to ponder...

Did we really actually get more snow then, or did it just seem that way because we were smaller? Or is it even the "Good Old Days" syndrome?
 
Yeah we definitely got more snow. Or maybe it was just really really colder than the past few winters. I dont recall ever getting rain back then. When and if we get dumped on, Im building a fort outside my apartment and nailing bums when they stroll by with their carts full of bottles!
 
oh man...my cousin and brother are moving into my town in a couple weeks for work and school. SOOOOOOOOOO stoked. these are the guys I ski with so this could be epic for winter!
 
No, we used to get epic winters. I'll find photo my mom has from when I was like, 10. The snow on my sidewalk went clear over my head, year after year.
 
we were within inches of the all time snowfall record this past winter and had a great one all over. outlook is looking really good for this year too!
 
we got a lot of warm spells that kept the snow down to manageable levels here in town but over the course of the whole winter, we got assholes of the whitestuff...it just never had a chance to accumulate because of the warm periods.
 
So I suppose a better stat to look for would be base depths/snowfall cover over the course of the season?

Do they even keep track that ish anywhere?
 
"Data from four sites in the mountains of western Maine–northern New Hampshire with

mostly complete records from 1926 to 2004 indicate that average snowpack depths have decreased by about 16% and

densities have increased by about 11%."

I guess I have been proved wrong. 16% is a substantial amount. Say the snowpack depth was 36 inches, it used to be historically around 42 inches.
 
Interview seemed to go very well. He said he was going to check some references and should be able to let me know more by Monday...

Here's to hoping.
 
Follow-up E-mail sent.

Nothing like doing the follow-up email about an hour after you left the interview.
 
and gave it to your girlfriend? my favorite part of that sketch (well one of them) is when the girl who's receiving the dick in a box mouths, 'thank you'. ahhahaha.
 
hahah

ok here's a longer one for ya:

One thing kids like is to be tricked.

For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but

instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said.

"Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep

down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to

the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.
 
hahahahahahahaahahahahaha oh thats so mean but so funny. i love it.

stoked that my boss just gave me his home # incase ashley and I end up in the clink tonight. score!
 
Apparently I have over 10k posts. I wanted to make this big huge speech, but likely wasted it on something stupid.

Oh well.

Thanks NS for allowing me to be addicted enough to make it to 10k posts, and thanks PH for being there to keep me interested in NS!
