Ellinwood Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Finally a realistic forecast from LWX: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 LOL I told you this was a huge bust in the making. Look at the radar: It's almost over, and it's not even noon yet. What a joke. BUMP for teh lulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxUSAF Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 BUMP for teh lulz No matter what storm, there's always weenie radar hallucinations and premature "It's over!" comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 BUMP for teh lulz Need to have them look at the VV from the RUC. Still to be fair, even I sometimes get semi sucked in. I just saw my first snowflakes of the year. I'm late to the party but now I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Finally seeing a little snow where it looks like it'll stay snow for a while. Steady, small flakes. Temp down to coldest of day at 35.6, down about 2 degrees over past 2 hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avdave Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 So when are we going to do this again? This was a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 So I guess it does snow in dc in October, contrary to the drumbeat we heard all week! Pretty sure this is the year of anything can happen with the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 No matter what storm, there's always weenie radar hallucinations and premature "It's over!" comments. That's one of the things that kinda ticks me off with winter threats. Someone who has no clue what is going on in the atmosphere should not be posting anything during a storm. I'm certainly not one of the more knowledgeable people here but I do have a decent understanding of the mechanics of storms to never just look at radar and say "it's over". It will never change though. It is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 It doesnt except when it does. Climo still won as much as it could given the setup. No arguing with that. However, I think LWX did a pretty good job with their forecast. Plus, I think everything shook out pretty much as expected. I enjoyed it. I didn't road trip to hike in the catoctins though. Wifey was worried about branches falling on us. At first I laughed but after I thought about it staying home sounded like a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first I laughed but after I thought about it staying home sounded like a good idea. They did. Those arguing climo were still pretty heavily vindicated near 95 and in the lowlands more generally. I know I never discounted an elevation event nearly as much though clearly it produced past wildest expectations 5-6 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 It'll be tough at DCA at least. Trace is probably the most realistic ceiling there... especially if it rains a lot first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 CWG did really well with my forecast so good job. Group effort. I certainly didn't make the map tho I liked it. My last minute fine tuning worked out with today's forecast. CWG better be careful... If we ever bust we'll surely hear it. I'll blame Wes.
