Yeah, I mean can Mets and wannabes be warned and timed out? I mean we get it, could be a mix, could be snow, jeeez!
I would think the scholars would know better than to nitpick temp profiles 120 hours out. Smh
 
Im not sure what this issue is. I have enjoyed reading the different opinions. In fact some people that are bitching about it could learn if they would actually read it. I think it's a great discussion . How horrible would it be if everyone agreed on everything .

I agree. Nothing is wrong in the main thread. The discussion isn't getting out of hand and we see some potential that at least some of us can get excited a bit about.

I come here to learn, and to share what little bit of knowledge I have, when appropriate.
I don't come here to get microcosmic/microscopic IMBY wishcasts, or to read personal attacks. There's a place I can go for that: https://www.americanwx.com/bb/forum/13-southeastern-states/
Please maintain the integrity that so many went into establishing here.
Catch y'all on the better side!
Goodnight and
Best!

Lmao! Screw americanwx!!!
 
I actually like it when someone disagrees with my analysis. It makes me go back and reanalyze to ensure I haven't missed something. That's also how it works in the operational world. I witnessed several shift changes where the two forecasters didn't agree, and even as an intern I made one mad (she actually wrote the long term today lol) because I didn't agree with her. I've even seen two lead forecasters "go at it" by adding snow and then the next one take over for them and remove it on the night shift only to have the other add it back. That went on for about two days before it finally snowed and the one that was pro-snow had to issue winter storm warnings less than 6 hours before Chatham county got 8" of snow.

P.S. I lived right beside RDU at the time and I got shafted hugely. I was all over this storm and then to see it treat me that way was really, really disappointing.
Disagreeing is one thing ... being disagreeable (or self centered) is an entirely different beast ...

Could not have said it better thanks Phil :)

Guess we won't have to dissect ptypes , with 0 precip! :(
 

You can squash a storm with too much northern stream. However a squashed storm and a storm suppressed too far south are two different things. For instance we may end up with too much northern stream and not enough separation and have no system and still trend the trough weaker and thus farther northwest.

Not this system. Ugh I was geared up to get smashed and watched that band set up south of wake county. Sulked while the flurries fell

I do actually remember a few times where the night shift and day shift at RAH have had totally different thoughts and reflected so in the forecast/afd.

East Of Metro ATL has been left out since 2014. I just want 1in and I’m happy. ATL-west to ATL - north has been the best places this winter. Don’t mind since it’s a easy drive to see snow.
 
Once again a storm thread is created and precip goes poof. Also anytime Brick says this is the one, the storm trends worse
Maybe these comments are made in jest but to be honest I tire of them.... who starts a thread, who says what, when a thread is started, jinx this jinx that, have absolutely nothing to do with actual outcome. I know most don't think this and you probably do not either but I'm just not sure why those comments must be repeated time and time again.
 
Directed to the "More SE Snow?" thread, but posted here to avoid clutter there ...
Folks, Chill.
Model runs are not generated by Divine Inspiration, nor are they scripted by Mathew, Mark, Luke or John ... :confused:
 
The Euro is about to be 0/6 on how it depicts things this winter. I think the King has been dethroned completely this year.

And I asked specifically to wait by the way. I really don't think winter beat threads are about patterns with most of the "normal" people, it's about the chase for something.
 
Poof! Went all the models ! Nailing the storms this winter, they are! :(
 
This is why I hate the cold weather. It's a well known fact that it will not snow in most of GA, NC. or SC this winter. Bring on the 60's and 70's and get rid of this useless cold weather. I have no clue why folks on here love the bitter cold weather like we had a few weeks ago. All it does is drive prices higher for everything.

Just like how your 110-120+ bull always verifies...

Yeah, I might be negative now, but JHS always takes the cake when it comes to negativity. I had a good snow this year and I'm not complaining. Beat climo 4 times already, had 2 measurable accumulations, and it's not been that bad overall. On another note, mobile seems to be messing up with profile pics. Still on default question mark and some don't show up.
 
I have been spot on about upstate SC so far and I simply see no way we get anything this winter. I'm ready for spring.

That's not even interesting to experience. Not at all. Nope. That or it being deep in the negative. Would I like to see more snow than I do (anywhere I go)? Yep. Would I like to see absolute extremes? No.

Truthfully, it being very dry bothers me a lot more than cold outside of 1 thing that I'll start doing next week.
 
Gone! Like a fart in the wind !
Next Saturday's rain storm , will be spot on from 8 days out!
