mattinpa Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 there is no point in even watching the precip today further north then progged there is no cold air around - 47 degrees here. As for the future storm prospects if the euro shows nothing just like the gfs foretaboutit - these models have been playing the same old game all winter looks good in the long range then when we get closer - nothing and some high profile mets have fallen for it every time ..... It's not that there isn't anything to track. I let the models that far out give a general idea and not a strict forecast. It's been so wet that I don't think we go dry for that long.

famartin Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Be patient. We have two possible storm threats next week. Did you win WOTY ever before? Otherwise I'm definitely voting for you this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 That offshore low that went up into the maritimes yesterday was a real powerhouse. Tail of the Bank buoy had pressure down at 28.63 and wasn't even at the center. Winds were well over storm force for several hours through out the eastern maritimes, I'm not sure what that means for us but it does show that a powerful storm is still possible this winter albeit offshore.

Isotherm Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Be patient. We have two possible storm threats next week. We do? I don't see anything worth mentioning, nevermind threatening. I'd be surprised if I saw flurries today/tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattinpa Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I don't think Snow88 is being unreasonable. Models have been flip-flopping so much that we could very well not get anything, but the possibility should be left open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the latest modelling, there doesn't seem to be anything threatening, but given the great job they've been doing lately, its still worth it to keep an eye out.

Strongbad Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Many people on here have said that this storm has a chance. The common theme on the NYC Metro board is that if you naysay winter weather more than naught, you won't be called out for it. Therefore anyone who even remains remotely optimistic can be accused of weenie-ism. Much easier to follow the herd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it much easier to read the other thread "Medium-Range Discussion". Not as many disappointed winter-weather fans on suicide watch. Much more pragmatism and analysis rather than doomsday weather reporting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CooL Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 pretty ugly run of the euro. Not only does it not have the gfs storm, but the SE ridge is building at the end of the run. My mind is already in spring and summer, but sadly my body is still stuck in this horrible winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
