Second Winter Storm Threat - Oct 29/30

Recommended Posts

Sounds like a Noreaster27 post, seriously. Shocking this is coming from someone responsible for forecasting for the entire CWA......You can bet that Bill Goodman would not have written such a piece of garbage.

Now, now, let's wait and see how things shake out. It's pretty easy to be an armchair meteorologist that doesn't have to worry about busts or get scored on their W/W/A verification. I personally didn't find anything objectionable about their reasoning despite everyone wanting them to "weenie out." Emotions are clearly running high in these threads.

I'm looking over the GFS and it's still.....just crazy to be seeing what the model is spitting out. For the interior...good lord.

There seems to be a good chance that the 700 low, back bent warm front or pivot point may lie across SNE. If that happens...and with this high theta-e air being forced into the atmosphere at a slantwise angle, then squeezed out by deformation and frontogenesis...look out. We don't have a source region full of warmer and more moist air in the winter, like we do now. However, we have a winter like mid level which will make it very interesting.

you don't even want to look at the CSI site for the 18 Z NAM, probably the sickest slant wise ever.

Some of us unemotionally broke it down. It is 33 at my house with accumulating snow. I am approaching 1 inch, first time ever for me in Oct. my leaves are full of snow, not falling. The reasoning because it never happened before in spite of hard science is bad science. No emotion just fact.

This is really anomolous and they dont' know what to do. It's like the "data error" from Boxing Day. GYX discussion at 730pm was just shocking. Like nothing is happening at all on Saturday.

Any idea what the biggest October snow was in Norfolk at the coop? Biggest I can find is 9.5" in 1987 but haven't had the time to look through all the years.

The data error was classic. It reminded me of the Tom Clancy novel where the computer virus brings down wall street so all the transactions were lost so no one knew how much many anyone had. The solution? Pretend the day never happened and start over.
