Misc Winter 22-23 Whamby and Banter Thread Part 2

it's possible there was a storm 12-13 and I failed to record it. But i'm pretty sure I blanked both of those seasons. If not, it was a minor event.
We got 2 events that year over here. The 1st was a small ice storm that hit most in this board. The 2nd was a localized, but potent snow event that gave me my only thundersnow I have seen. That one missed most areas west of Greenville in SC.

Here's some fantasy for you all.

12z CFS at day 10:

It then has 7 days of glory (storm after storm)

Afterwards it has a mid-month warm spell followed by a great pattern to end the month.

CFS starting at day 10: https://www.pivotalweather.com/mode...at-imp&rh=2023012712&fh=252&r=conus&dpdt=&mc=

Why are the models so bad at showing big storms at day 10 that never happen?
 
Is this finally the year? The year KCLT doesn't even get a Trace?

6 weeks is a long time, but it'll start getting mighty difficult by the end of week 4.
 
Why does Webber think everyone is Wishcasting every time someone makes a comment? I Mean Damn can people not respond what he don't make a Smartass comment back? He's nothing more than a know it all. And yes he is on ignore but you can still see comments that others reply to him. The ignore button is a joke if you can still see their stuff

Most of the replies to me have been a bunch of this.

Wishcasting: The act of interpreting information or a situation in a way that casts it as favorable or desired, despite the fact that there is no evidence for such a conclusion; a wishful forecast.

So if I have a opinion and make a comment im wishcasting. And your not. I could say the same about you. Lol. That's a good one. So my wishcasting for February tells me it's going to be colder than January. Climatology is going against me but ill still take February being better than January ever was. Let's check back at the end of February and see where the numbers shake out. Since your so confident in your forecast. How much you want to put on a below or above average February.

Your opinion was based entirely on personal anecdotes that interpreted the information in front of you in a certain favorable/desired way, with little-no physical evidence presented for such a conclusion. That's exactly what wishcasting is.

My replies in the main thread & posts over the last several weeks use mostly science + basic physical concepts that dictate subseasonal phenomena & not personal anecdotes. Huge difference there.
 
I see the main thread is status quo?
Thanks to whomever made the outside of the SE thread! ????
 
Everyday I feel like I’m in the twilight zone seeing the same posts over and over again like I’m reliving the same day. We need a mix in some other hobbies. Y’all should try pickle ball it’s great.
I was thinking of using steam rooms more often. I heard you are an expert on steam rooms, perhaps you could enlighten me ?
