It's actually not a bad look at all it's just more all or nothing

Which is pretty much all we get around here anymore.

I need to remind myself the model runs are for entertainment only. I think the best they can tell you when it comes to snow around here is if there is a possibility or not. When it comes to the fine details, especially for our area, it's really up in the air and whatever happens will happen. Most of the time we don't know until it starts happening.
 
Most likely, we got 18z NAM'd but it's changes at H5 need to be watched for on the globals inside 60 hours. Let me reiterate it, at least in my case, right up to the last day before go time, every global model was wrong on where the light snow accumulation line was going to reach out to. Then the Euro kind of got a clue. Every single one of them was wrong before then.

Its not that I saw snow, I did not but a former friend of ours from church, took pictures of light snow accumulation that happened in a town that is about 15 miles south of me that I saw. If I remember correctly, the cutoff that we saw on the globals at least in Georgia was in the southern CSRA counties, at best and likely much further south until close to again, go time.

The long range NAM is bad but inside 60 we have had the mets and the scholar say it can pick up on key changes on here. It cannot be thrown in the trash completely.

Bahahaha! You got that right. I'll admit the 19th threat has me a little intrigued, but it'll most likely go down like a ship in future runs. Everything that looked like it couldn't fail has fail, so what makes those threats any different? SMH.

I think the fixation with qpf output and pretty ptype maps has really led folks down the wrong path and really sets up the excitement and heartbreak we see. I rarely look at a qpf map outside of 24 hours

Or you could just wait and see, and if it does then so what, it is not a big deal.
 
Just saying, but I'm really not understanding at all what to look for at H5 or on the 500MB map with this one. Only thing I can really detect at all on H5 is the shortwave is further west on one of them, that's it, with looking at HR 60. They don't look different at all in strength or anything.
 
Going forward obvious trolling and snarky comments toward other members with no rationale will not be tolerated. I'm honestly fed up with it. If you have a problem with someone's posts put them on ignore. If you don't agree give a logical reason or ask why. Making off the cuff smart ass comments accomplishes nothing. I've been the most lenient staff member regarding banter and off topic chatter and I'm tired of standing up for people behind the scenes. The ban hammer is real and not that far away

And - if someone has a problem with someone else, how about being civilized and taking it up privately - there is a PM function ... ;)
Take it from a non-Mod who bitches privately at folks, on occasion ...
