snowstormcanuck Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Yup, I think the time has come for sub-sub regions. If for nothing else, so I don't have to read 90% of moneyman's posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Thus this thread is for those south and east of WI. But not OH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 But not OH. Fixed. But yeah i agree it is time to split it up. Hopefully Hoosier will deal with any potential cross trolling if it happens. I'll be reporting if it does as i am in no mood for it. Anyways back to the storm. Maybe it is me but it kinda looks like the GEFS wanna occlude this thing. Note the low when it gets to near the thumb at 132hrs vs 850s 0 line?

dmc76 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Ohio? to many problems between MI/OH Been on weather sites for 4-5 years now. EVERY argument is always between OH/MI posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 Ohio? to many problems between MI/OH Been on weather sites for 4-5 years now. EVERY argument is always between OH/MI posters. Actually in the 9+ yrs i have been on these wx boards i have noted very few problems with OH/MI posters. Most of the problems this winter was between WI and OH posters. Truthfully back when ( before the region exploded ) there was hardly any problems between anyone. Not in the region anyways. Most of it was MW vs eastcoast till they added regional forums. Mind you i have only posted here, eastern, wwbb, and my place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to get too off track but it has been something to watch the growth over the years. I remember when it was you, ChicagoWX, buckeye, me, and a few others and that was it.

I was a 16 year old kid who knew just about nothing when I started posting at TWC. Time flies. Not sure about the Canadian met you mentioned.

I forget when rdale joined as well ( the fights between him and DT though were legendary ) but the Canadian dude was there. I *believe* he lived just across the border from one of the New England states or NY? Wish i could remember his name. He really did not post to often. I believe a number of people showed up in 02-03 which ofcourse was a big winter in the southern/eastern Lakes and OV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I can't remember either...but you're probably right. I'd guess we never got to a part II thread back in the WWBB and early EUSWX days though.

dilly84 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Not much threat of this being a winter storm for OH anyways, so prolly won't be many Ohio posts as it is. Thanks for the thread Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess we never got to a part II thread back in the WWBB and early EUSWX days though. Eastern was the first place for them. Reason that started was the discovery of the toll mega threads took on the server. Biggest thread on wwbb i believe was PD II. The Christmas storm though was of a decent size if i recall correctly.

Biggest thread on wwbb i believe was PD II. The Christmas storm though was of a decent size if i recall correctly. I remember being on WWBB for the 2002 Christmas storm, late into the night, talking to WeathaFreak (from upstate NY). There weren't many of us on that night, but it shows how we use to interact "inter-regionally" back in the day. I guess we were smaller in numbers but also much more cordial back in those days. Not so much now (inter-regionally speaking). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much now (inter-regionally speaking). I wish i had been here and not Ohio for that one. Granted i was still happy with my couple of inches despite the dry slot/mixing. Ofcourse that was my first true White Christmas as well. This if i recall correctly was a decent nw trender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 What would you suggest? Go WI/IL/IN/MI/ONT There's no easy answer. Some area is gonna be near the boundary. I drew a map a while back that didn't have the boundaries exactly at the state lines. State boundaries are good in theory and perhaps less confusing but there's gonna be regions that overlap.

But yeah big time time late NW trender. Forecast for back home at IKK was for nada 36 or so hours out. Ended up with 6"...one of the best Christmas "weather" presents ever.
