A quick follow up to the post above... Looks like their summer forecast is a continuation of the May-July period -- temps slightly above average with near normal precip. The big heat looks to stay out west over the Rockies. Above normal precip to our west/southwest (Ohio Valley region), this would lead to below average temps there. All in all, I could live with this. Not a fan of those summers where the AC runs weeks on end.

Bump... Just read Paul Pastelok's (AccuWx) thoughts on the May-July period. He's going with normal to slightly above normal temps. Cooling energy usage will be near average. Looks like near normal precipitation with below normal severe (but there will be some). Confidence is moderate. His June-Aug ideas will be out next week.

Lolz!! Now we know why we don't see more of Storm Ranger 10 ... http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/entertainment/television/Report-NBC-Bostons-Storm-Ranger-weather-truck-is-actually-based-in-Philly.html

Umm ... tomorrow night at 11:00, Ch 6 is issuing it's February Winter Outlook. Isn't winter about half over, and by tomorrow night, about 25% of Feb will be in the books?? Wonder if they'll go with BN temps and AN snowfall??
-
Paul, does Wxsim forecast wind speeds? Just wondering what it's showing for gusts with this storm. Thanks!
-
So, how 'bout that JB? (Just trying to get this thread back on topic.)
-
Great minds, brother!
-
^This. Ever since they went to the new format back in the spring, their wx segments have become unwatchable. Two minutes of reviewing temps across the region ... zzzzz! Hopefully it's because not much has happened since the blizzard last year, and if we do get a legit storm threat, they'll get back into the swing of things. Not sure if this is Glenn's idea or some new producer at the station.

Let's merge with the Central/Western States forum. Ray used to post from Elko when he lived out there, now we can return the favor!
-
Can we boo and throw snowballs??
-
I must say I was pleasantly surprised by how "bullish" Glenn is. I like him because he tends to be conservative and doesn't hype too much. Here's hoping his outlook verifies!!
-
I imagine Ch 6 will be little more than a rehash of AccuWx's forecast.
-
A little more detail about the above Accuwx forecast from the MA forum ... "According to Pastelok, accumulation may be limited in areas south of New York City, such as Philadelphia, D.C. and Baltimore. These areas will see a handful of changeover systems, where falling snow transitions to rain and sleet."

Granted, reading comprehension isn't my strong suite, but did DT skip #2? lolz! Anyway ... Last night's 0z Euro doesn't look as extreme, but still way to early to settle on any one outcome. Should be an interesting couple of days model watching!
-
Just watched JB's weekend video with his prelim winter ideas. After a warm Dec, he's going cold w/above average snowfall. I know ... shocking, right??
-
Here's an article about their 90-day forecasts ... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/accuweather-90-day-forecast_us_57102676e4b06f35cb6f219a?ir=Science§ion=us_science&utm_hp_ref=science

The new format gave me a headache.
-
He just said on the 6:00 broadcast that we "get an extra hour of daylight on Sunday". You'd think he'd know better than that.
-
As I understand it, Glenn is out with the flu. Doug is filling in and that's why there's been line up changes. Hope you're feeling better soon, Glenn!
-
Phil agrees with JB.
-
I thought Bernie Rayno made an interesting point yesterday -- he sited the old Norm MacDonald rule of thumb, that the latitude at which a storm enters North America tends to be the latitute it exits. Nothing is ever 100% in weather, but it's something to keep an eye on.
-
Yes Mike, I recall the incident that probably caused you and most Mount Holly mets to leave this forum. It wasn’t my intention to imply that there have never been any issues. It sucks for the rest of us who still post here that there is such little red tagger participation. Perhaps if there was, this place would be a little more active. But I can understand the reluctance.
-
lolz ... I posted the link Ray and it was quickly delete. Guess there's still some bad blood around here.
-
Again, I don't understand why those who spend most of their time at Tom and Adam's site feel the need to come in here and tell those of us who remain that we need to merge with the NYC forum? Why do you care what goes on here if you've essentially left/choose not to participate here? I wish more mets like Tony, Mike, Ray and Mitch posted here. But they choose not to. I don't know why? This forum has never had a reputation of attacking red taggers the way other others do. And I'm not trying to turn this into an "our forum vs Tom and Adam's" thing. I lurk there. I just choose to spend more time here and post here instead. So again, what's the issue?
-
I don't understand why those in other forums care how active ours is. The few of us who remain here are content and get along with each other. So what's the issue? The NYC forum does have some great posters. Unfortunately one has to weed through 90% bickering before reading anything of value.
