MJO812 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I want a hurricane to track that don't bust like Irene Last year was the first time that I ever followed the models in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 NOGAPS and GGEM absolutely NAILED this event. The euro had 2-3 runs where it showed a coastal riding up the coast. The nogaps and GGEM always had no phase and strong confluence; even from 7 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Even the euro overall was decent-check out the NE thread-there's a map of the 2/10 run and today's run..IDENTICAL. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow_Miser Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Good riddence, let spring come if the only thing that is going to come out of this winter is models teasing everyone with fantasy snowstorms that will never come true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro was excellent but it had at least 2-3 runs where it bought the low up the coast. The Nogaps and GGEM not one time had any precip near us. Nailed the event.

Snow_Miser Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 every regional forum is pretty much committing a mass suicide all at one time.. it's pretty sad. The inevitable truth is starting to set in. This winter is shaping up to be a mega failure in terms of snow. And we're still in "Storm Alert" mode.

tornadojay Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I don't see the reason for it...who cares...spring and summer are awesome. I love summer too.... more than winter. The only time I love winter more than summer is during an actual snowstorm. If there isn't a mega snow storm, it might as well just be summer. I also don't mind if we get 2 feet of snow and it all melts after one day. I just like watching snow fall, but I find it a major pain having to deal with it once it has fallen.

Once snow falls it just becomes a pain in the a** in the city. Although it is nice to look at while running/walking through the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoSki14 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 It's kind of ironic how all the weenies here say this is one of if not the worst winter ever because of the complete lack of snow and warm weather but for the general public, this would be regarded as one of the best winters ever for those exact same reasons lol.

Isotherm Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I don't see the reason for it...who cares...spring and summer are awesome. Let's be honest here John - other than the occasional T-storms (which are awesome) spring and summer are generally pretty damn boring as far as interesting weather events. Winter can give you anything from blizzards, icestorms, sleetstorms, raging nor'easters ala Dec 92, big wind events, thundersnow, and extreme temp drops. Spring/summer -- backdoor cold fronts, sea breezes, heat waves, and T-storms. The first two aren't interesting, so that leaves only two weather events that are fascinating; I guess you can throw flooding in there, but that can happen in winter too.

Momza Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Time to break out the weenie phrases... "The JMA nailed Feb. 2006!" "The models ALWAYS tick farther north!" "12z runs will be telling!" *storm misses* "0z runs will be telling!" Let us not forget "Thread the Needle" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Did some quick analysis of number of hours we've spent at 32 or below since Dec 1, and came up with 357.75 hrs. Between Dec 1 and midnight tonight exactly 1896 hours will have elapsed. So.. assuming we don't hit 32 before midnight (highly unlikely), so far in the DJF meteorological winter we have spent only 18.9% of the winter at 32 or below.

GGEM is the only model showing anything right now. let's make one anyway. we should use reverse psychology and make a thread about a wishcast event that has 2% chance of verifying and then miracles will happen.
