Where are you on the Weather Kubler-Ross Scale

[twinplanx]

It's just when everyone (including friggin anoying radio DJ and the) raves about the great mild winter, I get a bit pi$$ed... I wish mounds of snow on them!

sometimes I feel like the only one that thinks something is wrong w/ this weather...then I visit AZ and I feel a lil' better

 

[billski]

I left acceptance today. IM now off the chart!

 

[Northernflight]

Still in denial over here, idk what you guys are talking about, I just was skiing in 6 inches of fresh snow at Cannon yesterday....nope those funky metal things attached to hoses had nothing to do with it.......

I am also off the chart. I will call it malaise, or doldrums.

 

[hammer]

Think I'm starting to go into the acceptance phase...

 

[billski]

Back to denial as of Tuesday morning.

 

[BMac]

Total acceptance. It will never snow again and that's ok.

 

[Abubob]

I never bargain with God when it comes to snow but I will get a bit angry if he doesn't follow through with my fervent prayers. I mention that snow is for the greater good, the over all economy depends on it and that I always help the old folks with shoveling (this is not bargaining because I actually enjoy shoveling snow). Then I slip quickly into depression because it does no good to be angry with God. He's got a lot on his plate right now.

I long ago quit worrying about things i can't control .

It is what it is -- this season isn't going to be about numbers but about time well spent out there with friends and family

 

[legalskier]

I smell a poll coming...

Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance

I move to amend your list to include "Grateful for snow making." Snow making is the anti-depressant for seasons like this.

I'm still out skiing and having fun. It's the damn weather we like to B*t** about!

The Single Chair weather guy is calling for possible RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES next week throughout much of the east, AND it not getting cold again until perhaps the Superbowl.

If the above happens, I may slip back into "Depression".

For what its worth he said the same thing for this week as well....it was warm but no record high temps. At the same time the way this winter is going I dont doubt it...uke:

It freaking felt like springtime today here in flatlandville. The last of the plowed snow is melting, and the yards are all wet. Oh Lord, let this not be the winter that wasn't! I just buried myself in my work and didn't look out the window. I had bemoaned that I am occupied with non-ski activities this weekend, but now it does not seem so bad. I am also avoiding looking at AZ too much. My colleague in Sacramento is celebrating the foot+ in Tahoe with stable, snow-preserving temps. And the rockies are recovering... Grrrr

Even though I have 15 or 16 days now I think I'm still in depression, I just haven't reached acceptance yet. When I went to sleep Monday night and there were still about 3" of snow in my yard and then woke up on Tuesday morning and there was nothing it was pretty depressing. I just got in a couple of hours skiing on bulletproof snow, it's better than nothing.

I was at acceptance and have slipped back into depression this week. It was much easier to 'accept' the lack of snow & warmer temps in Dec/Jan. In Jan/Feb?? Not so much

Maybe we should add another catagory to this poll and that would be Fantasy. As I watch the Depression numbers soar, I refuse to give up. The other day I had some free time and went back and read some of the TR's from the 2006/2007 season. It really wasn't much different at that point in that season as it is today. It wasn't until about 1/2 way through Feb that things started to get good. The end (or backside) of that season was great. I've been following the weather boards and while nothing is certain there does appear to be some hope over the horizon. Am I crazy?, is this just a fantasy?, time will tell. I would gladly take a replay of that 2nd half. She may be warming up but I haven't heard the Fat Lady singing yet.

For the same reason, only I've slipped back even further. I'm ANGRY!

I have to keep reminding myself this is still January...

 

[jack97]

Acceptance..... It is what it is.

btw, I'm having a great time this season. I made it an effort to get to local places that make snow.

I'm really enjoying the moguls at Sundown, the place rocks given what is out there. I might even try Butternut if the moguls hasn't been plowed flat.

From Accuweather tonight:

Look for a major storm coming out of the South later next week followed by an immediate shift to much colder conditions.

Sadly it looks like it would only help far-north New England. Plus, they've been pretty wrong this winter. But hey, at least they've turned positive, and you know what they say about a broken clock......
