Ginx snewx Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 It matters enormously. Irene was only the tip of the iceberg. A real Cat 2 would bring much larger surges-- not to mention actual wind. Josh I think we know, TS Irene hit us hard, SNOW NH is silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski MRG Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Josh I think we know, TS Irene hit us hard, SNOW NH is silly. lol. I don't know what's worse SnowNH's posts or Josh feeling compelled to state the obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, dude, but all kinds of whacked-out things are posted in this subforum all the time, so it's not aways clear how much this regional audience understands. But I don't blame you guys for this. Actual hurricanes are such an *extreme* rarity here, literacy is bound to be extremely low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKpowdah Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 FYI, 00z GFS is rolling in with a much flatter trough that doesn't even phase with Lee, so the westerlies are notably further north, and the whole evolution is vastly different from the last few runs.

But then some big time energy flies out of Ontario to kick it out. That stupid vortex to the north is killing it from moving nw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OKpowdah Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 REEEEECURVE CITY it seems. Probably, but we're not done with the myriad possibilities of synoptic evolutions. Complex interaction between multiple troughs, TD Lee, and Katia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complex interaction between multiple troughs, TD Lee, and Katia We're running out of time for the overall synoptic pattern to change significantly. The euro was not far off from something more interesting, but the pattern just seems hostile for allowing this to come close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, sorry I haven't changed my location on here. I moved back to Plymouth the day before Irene hit. If you can, definitely try to come to Keene for Pumpkin Festival (late October) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting but a miss aside of big swells which limit offshore boating aside of Cape Cod Bay and protected areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think that we'll have at least one more riveting tropical system, but it's been painfully obvious since it's inception that this one is not it.

Pete, Josh is not at all condescending, though he may have presented himself in that particular light just then...you can't blame him for feeling that way.

I know Josh from his posts and while I feel he is probably a perfectly pleasant individual you must admit that his stated goal of saving us from our own stupidity is a bit arrogant no?lol I like Josh and hope he posts more here but he really doesn't need to start with instructing us that a Cat1 or cat2 hurricane is worse than a TS. Well, on second thought, maybe SnowNH needs some extra tutoring and all of us have lost patience. Josh, you've got a lot of work to do, better get crackin'.
