Phil Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 This is an excellent point.Sometimes your points are very wrong and not excellent, though.One is more about aesthetics and the other is weather. Not sure they’re comparable. A place can have dreary weather and have beautiful scenery..IE Hippa Island.

Front Ranger Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 This seems to be the case for lots of people here. The fact you’re aware of it gives you an advantage over folks like Mossman and Tim, who are apparently still living in denial over the abnormality of the 2013-18 summers. They might go into instantaneous hypothermia when the next strong multiyear niña rolls around. Sounds like you're talking about some plebs! 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world.

Phil Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 I really liked 2016. The one summer in the past five years that wasn't a torching smokebox.Tim had a panic attack that July.

Phil Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 July 2016 was pretty nice.All I remember is that someone was very unhappy and after a certain 12z ECMWF run went off on a tangent about how gloomy the summer had become.

Probably will never see one like it again in any place I live. I remember shoveling snow the end of February into March. My deck didn't completely melt until the middle of April. Started snowing in December and didn't stop until March. Was so, so done with it since I shoveled at home and then had to shovel at work. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
