WxUSAF Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I think every potential snowstorm in our area follows this basic pattern: 7-10 days out: First hints of a storm on GFS or Euro. Weenies take notice. 4-5 days out: Perfect scenario in all aspects. Weenies actively debate whether this will be a KU storm or a SECS/MECS/HECS. 3 days out: Disaster. Storm is suppressed OTS or came west and is now rain. Weenies get ready to jump off the ledge and swear they never had high expectations anyway. 1.5-2 days out: Storm comes back a little. Still not back to the perfect scenario, but not disaster either. Weenies swear they never abandoned hope. 0-1 day out: Where paths diverge...storm goes back to being sub-perfection but still good or goes back to being a disaster. Weenies rejoice or jump off the ledge. Only exception to this rule was Feb 5-6, 2010 where the perfect scenario locked in at Day 7 and only got more perfect with time.

Instead of being happy with whatever happens we all get geeked up and get into the mindset that because our HECS was taken away a 3" storm is a failure.

mattie g Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 day 3 is the big IMO. Instead of being happy with whatever happens we all get geeked up and get into the mindset that because our HECS was taken away a 3" storm is a failure. It's only a failure if it means we get 3" of slop. If it's 3" from a suppressed system, then it's not all bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started Firsthand Weather less than a year and a half ago in a small bedroom in the small town of Pendleton, SC. I remember being on the phone with my dad discussing what name we would call this site and came up with the name Firsthand Weather. We now have fans all over the world and continue to grow daily. I can't imagine where we'll be at in a few years. Thanks for all of the support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 He has to be joking... eta: from the site Classic bait and switch. Feed the masses what they want to hear (i.e. sensationalism) early, then, once you build up a frantic fanbase, slowly replace it with standard hype and maybe a good forecast or two.
