HarveyLeonardFan Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Or the guy from Boston. Some bad accents up there. There's nothing wrong with a genuine New England accent. The guy you're talking about has a great New England sound. Hollywood does a bad job trying to produce the accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isnice Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Took a nice picture of your area while driving down 87 today. Down to 31.6 here. Temperature dropping rapidly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Took a nice picture of your area while driving down 87 today. Dude It's not like your 1,000 +feet above sea level now here in the pocono's elevation FTW although hopefully bronxville gets a good whacking since i'll be home tomorrow. LOL, yeah I'm totally joking...elevation won't make any difference in this event since it's clearly cold enough to snow across all of NYC metro except perhaps Southern Monmouth County. 350-400' elevation isn't a big deal usually, although the contrasts can be pretty stark in urban areas when you go from 100' downtown to 400' in a wooded, shaded area. The snowpack retention this year after the torch and the 2/25 Snowicane last year are examples where it did make a significant difference. But it usually is no big deal. BTW we have a house at 1500' elevation in the Poconos, they are going to get hammered tonight. The higher spots up there are really awesome in winter, love the winding roads and rolling hills of Wayne County where I spent much time growing up.

earthlight Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 That RGEM is pretty far south actually, I'm surprised it's that different from the other mesoscales right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthlight Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Have we had a real "elevation" event yet this year? I can remember. Not counting the ice event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isnice Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 That RGEM is pretty far south actually, I'm surprised it's that different from the other mesoscales right now. That's an understatement. It has central NJ getting more than the Hudson Valley. Either that, or the first system just gets fizzled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthlight Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 At least we wont have a three hour debate as to whether schools will be closed. Or four pages of talk about what the TV Mets are calling for, why they are calling for it, descriptions of their maps, history of their broadcasting station, information about their credentials, and opinions on all of them.

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 radar looks great. side note. im super band hunting on radar in the upper midwest and aberdeen, SD esp just to the N and E has been getting hit hard past 3hrs. watertown which is to its SE has been getting sort of like waa while the boundry has been just to its S all day so its a constant feed of moisture. spots here will pick up 16"++.

Hollywood does a bad job trying to produce the accent. Agreed. Boston > Southern accents. Not even close. Meanwhile, with the NAM predicting 850 temps of -4 at Newark, I'll go with a high of 60 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTrials Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 based on radar getting a feeling the precip shield is going to be more expanisve further to the north than any of the models show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
