  1. ICON is even decent here especially with the enhancement I get in SE/E winds. I can make .4 - .5” liquid work for a decent storm.
  2. I foresee a run coming that goes nuts and gets good snow even up to central NH. Panic will set in.
  3. Icy mashed potatoes at BW today. Should be really nice tomorrow after they groom, however.
  4. Throws some meaningful precip all the way up here.
  5. Thanks guys, makes perfect sense. I used to be all about the huge events like Will was saying for ORH, but starting to hedge more in the retention department being up here now. I can see the appeal of both.
  6. It honestly kinda seems like somewhere around ORH is a better spot for snow than parts of CNE. There are frequent precip holes in that part of NH. I am newb to this area so maybe long term the story is different, just my observation.
  7. My goal with Sunday is to get it far enough NW to squeeze a couple inches out of it on the SE/E flow and make sure the low is strong enough to kick off good upslope after it passes. A couple more moves like the 06z to 12z GFS should do that.
  8. Pretty good chance ORH area steals this one too?
  9. 60 hours is enough time for some more moves. We aren't even in the 24 hours messenger shuffle time yet.
  10. Not sure what to make of that thing. It has come back from the dead twice now. A couple more bumps NW would put us in some nice snow, especially over this way. Tuesday is looking much more interesting across the area. A latitude storm.
  11. Models say this quick-hitter rolls through and then upslope keeps going in the usual spots. Could add a few more fluffy inches.
  12. No need for shame. Reginald loves to be amped up so when it misses weak and SE, that’s a red flag.
  13. Large parts of the Internet are totally compromised by corporate interests now. There is no free speech, no rights. It's basically a sci-fi movie dystopia. Folks need to understand that before diving in. Corporations on the Internet can basically do the equivalent of shooting you in broad daylight and nothing will happen to them. Depending on your politics, it may even be cheered and celebrated as a major victory for "progress." Be warned.
  14. The SEC is one of the most captive government organizations out there. It's a complete revolving door between the banking industry and the SEC. Executives at the major banks basically do a tour at the SEC as part of their career path, where of course they grease the skids for the banks the entire time. I see this in DoD, but to a lesser extent. There are many executives from the big defense companies in the Pentagon and Executive Branch. Tons of lobbyists too, of course. A lot of folks are totally ignorant that this is going on. There are stories from the 2008 crash of a few maverick gov't lifers at the SEC attempting to confront the big banks over it and basically being intimidated and run out of the meetings. Recall that during the 2008 crash our politicians told us only the whiz kids at the banks that had caused the issue in the first place could possibly "unwind" it without destroying the global economy further, so we needed to give them bags of cash and hope for the best. This exactly how the banks use the government to make themselves "too big to fail." A large number of ignorant poor Americans believed this and still defend the big banks to this day.
  15. Yes. Him and Jerry for sure, IMO. A few others too maybe. Tiny group.
  16. I agree with that. I don’t begrudge SNE for getting a big storm if I miss. None of us control the weather and such things happen. We all joke around about getting upset sometimes, but it isn’t worth it for real. I do always hope for the most extreme outcome here. That’s why I moved here. To max my snow totals.
  17. It's just an act outside a very tiny select few. It's a coping mechanism. Same deal as crapping on every threat and then pretending to be shocked and awed that your climo prime spot once again came out on top. The Parr's Ridge crew in MD always does this. "I expect just a dusting here, congrats DC!" "Just woke up to a WSW and 5 inches already down. Wow, so unexpected and amazing!"
