Uh, what? Since when does creating a thread determine a storm happening or not?
Why not just rename it to nor’easter with all the flooding and winds down eastIt doesn't. That's my point. I was being sarcastic.
If y'all want to delete this thread, fine by me. I just don't get why folks get so serious about a thread being started. I just won't start anymore. There are bigger things to worry about.
I think it's safe to say Brick won't be allowed to start another thread anytime soon.Wow I'm back to winter mode to see Brick being hammered to death for starting a thread. I'm a winter time user of the board and think the relentless hammering is a bit much. I've seen thread that didn't pan out before but to be so mean. WoW
Dang we were thinking the same thing at the same timeOk, enough Brick bashing. Didn't we talk about not berating other posters? We better get all these kinks out before legit winter gets here.
I'm going to leave the thread open because there is a coastal low with rain, wind, and flooding. If other staff wants to overrule me, that's fine.
But I think we're going to ask folks from now on that if you start a thread, you should provide some sound meteorological rationale regarding the topic at hand. I can't speak for the rest of the staff, but if I see a thread pop up with some silly clown map or 10 day + cold pattern plot and no solid analysis or good weather discussion, I'm going to delete it.
Lastly, I know that some posters get on each other's nerves. Just avoid talking to them or about them (and that means the passive-aggressive stuff too). Ignore them or scroll past their posts. If you disagree with something and you want to discuss it, that's fine. But let's don't turn these threads or the board into a bash-fest.
I think it's safe to say Brick won't be allowed to start another thread anytime soon.
What model you you find most accurate when it comes to wind speed progs? And what do you expect to see at your location later?The more things change the more they stay the same.............
Pushing 35-45 in gust here now, really shaking the house and much more frequent, the low is really starting to crank....

Thanks. It's been blustery here, but nothing over 35, in terms of gusts, I'd say.Usually the GFS is the most "grounded" and typically is closest followed by Euro.....all the models except the GFS had me hitting 50+ and they are barely doing that at the coast at this time so unless it really ramps up 40-45 ought to be the best we see here....things should peak between 9-12 then taper off.....officially at PGV the max is 36 for now....
Do like me read more and post less. Some have been doing this for years and just times up to many pages. We all get excited over wintry weather. I agree some comments are to harsh for a free forum but also this isn't the first time someone has made a thread with one model run. Never was a threat if it was some met would have picked up on it. Who cares who starts a thread as long as it's a legitimate threat. Please don't turn this forum into the other forum that most came from. As a contractor I appreciate those who know how to read models and study weather. I use those that have knowledgeable quotes to help us with our winter storm preparations.Oh, I didn't know we had to be allowed to start a thread. I didn't realize it was such a big deal.
Oh, that's right, it isn't.
