Clinch Leatherwood Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 It's not so much about whether or not it's true it's more a question of him coming on here and ONLY posting about winter being over. If he lived in the region and/or gave his opinion on all weather I wouldn't really care much. But all the dude does is come and post about either winter being over, less snow occuring, or generally poorly performing winter events in SNE. I think people really need to grow up. I think mostly people are in the 20's to 50's here....it's so childish that people react to words that are anti-snow like they're 14 year old kids that didn't do their homework because they'd thought a snow day was incoming. It's a fuc*ing science discussion, not one about the emotional impact of snow depth, snow banks, or snow rates. I totally disagree with what BIrv said about Ray. BUT I do think he has a point about the seriousness by which some react on these forums. It's nutty. It's almost funny to watch these guys troll many of the snowinistas....all you have to do is suggest that we are closer to Spring than the heart of Winter and the emotions well up like a spurned schoolkid. Time to bring something new to the table. Yes. We know it's winter in the Massachusetts Alps until June. Beautiful day down here again, 47.

cpickett79 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Is it snowing at 2K? Albany radar seems to show it out in GC/ SouthernVT was at wa wa yesterday ....today looks like a good bet again 2-530.....some flakes in the air up there over 1200'. Big big winter for the elevated interior wont' die and if forky is gonna post winter is over...for the kicks of it.....he shouldn't do it in a irresponsible way...i.e "there will be no ice outside of n. vt nh maine...." and then low and behold it was one of the most dangerous driving days of the year in the am for those from 128 W and N ....esp. side roads. So i basically discard anything he says and listen to the local mets b/c i know when they are sarcastic and when they are serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol @ all the lowlanders and southerners saying Winter's over and has been since 2/2. Poor things. Pete you have to keep things in perspective, Feb featured 4.7 inches of snow at BDR and multiple days above 50, climo is very different from your location to mine and others on the board. Just as you post how wintery and cold it is at your location, us "lowlanders"should be able to post our accurate observations without ridicule.

CoastalWx Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 More like big big ice on the Euro That's a lot of rain too before any flip back. Looks like a lot of IP and ZR then ending as snow, esp further west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fuc*ing science discussion, not one about the emotional impact of snow depth, snow banks, or snow rates. Doesn't really emotionally effect me one way or the other, just posted my observation. Also thought it was funny that you consider this a science discussion in this thread... we're in the banter thread, anything seems to go here. If this nonsense was going on in the thread that actually is tracking the next system I'd definitely agree with your point though. Gotta say though, good work by the mods here keeping the other thread focused on the upcoming event and this thread for all the other trainwreck activity that can happen when grown men get emotionally invested in the weather. Hope we can keep that going, makes it easy to just check in on the current thoughts on the upcoming storm really quickly. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Just got crushed with a squall... visibility was measured in feet, not miles. Just over 1" down and the squall line should be pushing in shortly. Riding the gondola with Weir Lundstedt and Tim Kelley... all three of us weenies are having a blast watching this progress. Winds ramping up, sky just started pouring half dollar sized flakes again. Weir was worried about relative humidity in the boundary level but it looks like we are making out ok. Ive got Weir's 1993 WINDEX paper on my lap, Tim's got his phone out, Weirs looking at on his phone at lightning strikes east of Lake Ontario and loving the instability... good stuff. Living the good life weining out with Weir during a Windex , seriously jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jconsor Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Euro is developing a major coastal low just about the only way it can happen with such a crappy setup in the overall pattern - via the wavelength shortening and an upper low cutting off.

40/70 Benchmark Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 winter is pretty much done http://www.meteo.psu...nsloopmref.html notice how the above normal height anomalies keep appearing over the eastern US below the huge vortex over greenland Doesn't necessarily mean we are done because the wave lengths shorten once beyond the first half of March, but it would take some luck. Euro is developing a major coastal low just about the only way it can happen with such a crappy setup in the overall pattern - via the wavelength shortening and an upper low cutting off. Right on cue, the 12z EURO turned out to be a wonderful illustration of my point, that the pattern sucking doesn't necessarily mean that winter is over becuase the wave lengths shorten around mid month. Of course, climo also begins to act as the most prominate deterrent (especially across the lower terrain), but an unfavorable pattern does not necessarily entail an abrupt end to what has been a prolific season and my hunch is that it will not.

Well to be fair, I was originally optimistic regarding the first half of March and that has turned out to be an incorrect hedge. I think it will unltimately be a case of "delayed, but not denied" and is likely to be achieved via an uncoventional means, as it relates to the winter season.

I'm still hopeful for that post front system. I think it may produce good wintry weather. Other than that, blah. I'd rather have it be 60-70 and sunny then deal with cool/cold crap.
