Sonny Summers Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 This little event has been rather enjoyable. I'm put in mind of 1988, 2000, and 2017. I definitely hope we transition into more of a normal November zonal pattern rather than a massive ridge. It would be wonderful to build a nice snowpack in the mountains and get the ski season off to a great start.Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably always going to pay a little more living on an island, I would also assume BC has fairly strict zoning/building laws. That is one thing people don't realize that makes the West Coast so much more expensive than say the Midwest. In Texas or Oklahoma there is little regulation, and few zoning restrictions.

I much rather live here than then OhioĀ Yeah, it makes sense. Personally, I am not opposed to some of the restrictive zoning laws we have, urban growth boundaries, etc... But we do pay for it.Ā I also know my neighbor cannot put a strip mall or casino on the vacant land next to us. It is zoned for timber production, but since they have owned it since before 1974 they can divide it into 9 acre plots. They never have, but it would not be the worst thing in the world.Ā Edited November 8, 2022 by SilverFallsAndrew 1 SnowfallĀ Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Precip 2022-23: 95.0"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2021-22: 91.46"Ā 2020-21: 12.0"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2012-13: 78.45Ā Ā 2011-12: 98.5"Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!Ā Fighting the good fight against weather evil.

I like where weāre at with that. Plenty of time until winter primetime for it to shift back west, which it hopefully does. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
