Brings back to me and old song "the snain in Spain stays mainly in the Plain",LOL.How are things in Greentown rb?I get off that exit on 84 and pass Frank's Family Restaurant to get to Wallenpaupack to my old Frat Pal's house these past 43 years.I think it's Route 507 or 502.

Here just plain rain, 35 degrees.

Right now things are icy haha and yeah, it’s 507!! But did you mean John’s; the Italian restaurant right off 84?

Yes, rb, JOHN'S, my bad!!!! My wife and I had breakfast there last October on the way to my Pal's daughters wedding on the Lake further up on 507.That spot right around John's is where time has stood still,LOL.Looks exactly like the first time I passed through there in 1975.

Heavy rain still here.Radar looks kind of ragged behind it.

I'm still very confident we will have above normal snowfall this winter despite the failures of December thus far. In order for that to happen, we will be going against history. If you look past at other unproductive Decembers, it does not usually bode well for the rest of the winter if you're looking for above normal snowfall amounts.

So then plan on it being like all other historical years, why think any differently? Thats just wishful thinking, you know that analogs are used VERY often and usually unless its a huge anomoly are correct to the overall degree of snowfall, so I am guessing average or below which means for me less than 18 inches cuz we already had 7. Honestly I am ready for spring if thats the case.
