Weave Posted February 23, 2018 Report Posted February 23, 2018 I dunno. My bulbs are popping up already. Pics, or it didn't happen. Quote
Ogre Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 There has been an awakening. Can you feel it? Sunburned face.... First one of 2018. Guess I should dig out the sunscreen. Quote
Gramps Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 So, I give you this little tidbit concerning global warming ... http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/maple-syrup-nova-scotia-warm-winter-sap-tapping-1.4547319 When the trees start waking up in the winter as if it is spring you have a problem. Out of curiosity, when did they wake up the last 5 years ? Quote
Taro T Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 There has been an awakening. Can you feel it? Sunburned face.... First one of 2018. Guess I should dig out the sunscreen. This whole winter seemed 1 month ahead. December felt like January, January felt like February, and February felt like March. Hopefully March doesn't start reversing it back. ;) Quote
josie Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 This whole winter seemed 1 month ahead. December felt like January, January felt like February, and February felt like March. Hopefully March doesn't start reversing it back. ;) 5-10 inches of snow due thursday night through Friday... blurp Quote
Taro T Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 5-10 inches of snow due thursday night through Friday... blurp Good. Need March to roll in like a lion. That should be close enough that the weather will be nice at the end of the month. :thumbsup: Quote

Environment Canada has issued a wind warning here in Halifax and all of NS. Thank you, Baastan!! And while we are at it, F PARK!! Quote
ubkev Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 Got 3 or 4 inches of snow here in the city. The mountains around me got anywhere from 9 to 14 inches. I'm gonna have a good weekend on the slopes. Quote
MattPie Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 The whole house is rumbling in the wind here; I could see my monitor wiggle a little and feel the vibration in the desk a minute ago. Not a ton of snow, but the wind was been nearly 30 MPH for hours. Power was out for a couple hours this afternoon, but luckily not since. I just hope we get through the night with power since it doesn't mess RosePie up. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 The results of the latest storm ... http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/storm-surge-atlantic-coastline-1.4561552 Quote
MattPie Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 I lucked out, that 2 hours was the only time power was out here. There are still people without power and there's another storm blowing in Wednesday. Quote
matter2003 Posted March 6, 2018 Report Posted March 6, 2018 Again those of us from Buffalo... how soon you forget.. its called a locally heavy snow squall... :) As a former meteorology major in college I can tell you that is incorrect. Probably the closest comparison would be to a rapidly intensifying hurricane. Quote
nfreeman Posted March 7, 2018 Report Posted March 7, 2018 NYC is so GD soft when it comes to snow. They announced a school closure last night for today. Here it is, 9:45 AM, and there is a bit of rain and zero snow. Weak sauce. Quote

Here it is, 9:45 AM, and there is a bit of rain and zero snow. Weak sauce. I don't know, man. When I got out of my truck in the parking lot where I work, I had to walk through a puddle that was, like, a quarter of an inch deep. Shoulda called out. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 7, 2018 Report Posted March 7, 2018 We have another Noreaster coming at our throats. Over night tonight and tomorrow. Good thing I gassed up the snow removal machine. Quote

Yeh so far not sticking.Nice though the ER and OR is dead in Yonkers.. and I am sore and dead from hockey loss last nite played with 8 against 15. Legs feel like jello and lats are killing me...

MattPie Posted March 7, 2018 Report Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) I know Buffalo people will chuckle, but when your local snow removal plan (and budget) works on the idea that it'll snow 4-5 times per year instead of per week, this is a big deal. It's heavy, it's wet, and it'll be more than a foot (at least!) when it's done. At least I still have power; at least one of my coworkers is already out (heavy wet snow, winds, and trees don't mix).

ubkev Posted March 7, 2018 Report Posted March 7, 2018 I'm at the mountain skiing in about a foot of fresh powder. Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 We are having our second in two days Nor'easter right now and over night and into tomorrow. They say we are going to have a third on Tuesday / Wednesday this coming week. What gives? Quote
Eleven Posted March 10, 2018 Report Posted March 10, 2018 I am hearing varieties of bird chirps that I normally do not hear until late March or early April. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 10, 2018 Report Posted March 10, 2018 I am hearing varieties of bird chirps that I normally do not hear until late March or early April. The Cardinals and the Cedar Waxwings have returned to our neighbourhood. About 2 to 3 weeks early. Quote
Eleven Posted March 10, 2018 Report Posted March 10, 2018 The Cardinals and the Cedar Waxwings have returned to our neighbourhood. About 2 to 3 weeks early. I can't see the birds, I only can hear them, and I can't match calls to species, but I can tell they're early. Animals know weather so much better that we do. Spring is imminent. Quote
