    that's on my list of goals (i'm still renting). i didn't even realize costco sold those. i have a membership through my mom, but i never go...might have to check that out. i know davis is also a popular brand.

    While the name commanders has grown on me, I can’t get over the fact that there were more fun options available.

    i've seen more impossible setups than what's depicted for tuesday. i'll tune in for 18z/0z.

    i didn't think i'd say this, but the name "commanders" is growing on me. i think they might have gotten the rebrand right, though the rollout was definitely weak. they still need a new stadium, though. i'm just glad that i don't have to call them WFT anymore bc that was miserable.

    it can snow into early april here, but i do think the ROI gets suspect by early march. by then, i start tracking cherry blossoms and march madness. hopefully, we can get one forum-wide snowstorm before spring starts making an appearance.

    seems like we're just too close to the surface low. the areas getting the ice storm are on the western side...in some case, much further west. surface winds are still out of the south/southeast into western nc/wv and pa. even if temps are in the low 30s...i don't think that'll be enough. far western ky/tn has temps in the 20s right now.

    snow would have been fun, but it's been a little while since we had a washout. free car wash.

    definitely not a big fan of the name change. i don't hate it, it's fine, but they could have had more fun with it...instead, they went corporate. i don't agree with others who say wft was better. i thought it was kind of annoying actually. jerseys are a bit disappointing, though. i expected better based on some of the players' reactions leading up to the rollout.

    got an hour of outdoor hoops (practice sesh) in today. had to get that out of my system before the next cold snap settles in.

    exactly, it's called forecasting for a reason. if no models existed, there would be no forecasting beyond extrapolating on prior/current conditions. nowcasting takes as much skill as a layup line.

    i could see that weekend system either weakening upon approach or cutting a little bit inland. either way, it's a nice airmass in front of it. seems like snow to start would be a pretty solid bet...assuming there's actually a storm and it's not just noise.

    the clipper is sketch, but looks like a vigorous southern vort on the gfs. hopefully the other models come on board. kind of difficult to buy in yet.
  13. 87storms
    we need the friday wave to slow down by 6 hours, or something like that.
  14. 87storms
    gonna need to deal with precip chasing cold for the late weekend system (which i think we actually do better here), assuming it's not a slider...we'll see what the gfs paints.
  15. 87storms
    the advertised temp drop on the gfs from 6z to 12z is suspect. even if the surface temps drop like that, the mid levels are not ideal. i think we want that trailing wave friday to take its sweet time getting itself together for this to work out.
  16. 87storms
    that temp drop is legit on the gfs. looks like it drops at least 10 degrees in 6 hours overnight thursday. seems like it's overdone, but it is a strong high, so who knows.
  17. 87storms
    yea, still needs work, but there's cold air in place (though how long it stays in place is tbd).
  18. 87storms
    the wizards are actually even more annoying. their brand doesn't even reference a wizard anymore. that's an org that truly needs a rebrand imo...and not just changing the name (i think the name is fine), but they gotta get away from being the bullets 2.0.
  19. 87storms
    lol, they need a qb. i actually like heinicke simply because he can scramble, unlike almost every other qb we've had, but some of these other starting qb's around the league are lasers. burrow/stafford...they're in the super bowl for a reason.
  20. 87storms
    i was in hs at the time as well...it looked like siberia outside. they can be cool minus the power outages. i'm mostly just blowing smoke in regards to tracking, but i'm ready for a forum wide snowstorm that doesn't include sharp gradients.
  21. 87storms
    that's the one i'm interested in.
  22. 87storms
    one thing is certain, i'm not spending all week tracking an ice storm lol. if this trends towards snow, i'm in.
  23. 87storms
    having the 540 line in toronto probably doesn't help with the mid levels, but it's also an overrunning event as opposed to a wound up storm. seems like this could work, but may want a little separation between waves to allow the cold air to settle in.
  24. 87storms
    well that's interesting... https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=gfs&region=us&pkg=mslpa&runtime=2022013112&fh=90

    i'm on the ropes, too. commanders is suspect. it flows fine, but it sounds very corporate. i would have taken the blue heron over that. some think it will be the red hogs because they chose groundhog day for the event...which is probably better, but i would have preferred just plain hogs.
