Alpha5 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 In LA All east coast airports are closed down, had a flight sunday into JFK. It costs $500 to switch flights, so I have to let the airline rebook me. There are no open flights until wednesday So I'm flying into Chicago tonight. Then this, all because of a hurricane that wont even be a hurricane by the time it gets to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBG Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Bloomberg speaking now. Lol at him talking in Spanish What a disaster The world ended </sarcasm>. All kidding aside Bloomberg is trying to make up for his undeserved bad name from the Boxing Day plowing fiasco. Nothing could have kept the streets clean with snow falling at 21 degrees, 2 - 3 inches an hour, blowing at 50 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean poor job by Bloomberg, or by the press?You're right that other storms have been handled well. Not all were the day after Christmas either. Also the storms that were remotely similar in terms of fall rate and temperature, January 1996 and January 2005 were much better forecast and not adjacent to a holiday weekend.

SnowGoose69 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 you're kidding right? The city has handled it before, that was a hatchet job all the way up and down. The fault for that ultimately falls on NCEP and whatever weather provider the NYC DOT uses. I believe fully they were getting information on the 22nd and 23rd letting them know the threat was basically non-existent when almost all the pro mets on this board were still on their heels regarding them storm coming west. The NWS offices to an extent were hamstrung by NCEP basically ordering them to disregard the GFS and the fact the generally good Euro had been waffling gave everyone little confidence to what was going to happen. Had NCEP not continued to toss the GFS even after a few models began coming westward in the ensuing 2 runs thereafter its possible NYC would have been a bit more ready.

It's a disgusting season Totally agree, I hate Fall more than I do Winter which says a lot lol. The only thing I like about Fall is Thanksgiving & TV shows/movies around Halloween. I hate days like today, why is it so cold? I actually closed all the windows, it's a bit too early for that. It's summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
