I'm ready for someone to tell me that the 72 hour nam is infinitely more reliable than the 84 hour nam.

not really.. it's super bouncy in this range. maybe an avg of the last two runs heh. big diff off sref too.. op nam probably an outlier to at least some degree.

But like Mitch said the srefs do not use the 0Z data so they would not reflect it until the 3z or 9z srefs correct?.

the other models might(?) be stabilizing. it's possible we're about to flip to consensus and the nam is leading the way but given how it usually performs im not sure it can be believed much.

The non-banter thread is getting kind of hard to read at times. How many times can WinterWxLuvr say the same thing? lol Lots of people just repeating what others have already said.

Dude, you need to give it a rest. Did it ever occur to you that sometimes people are posting at the same time? What is it you are expecting to read over there anyway? You waiting on somebody to tell you that tonights NAM is the solution you can hang your hat on?

Put me on ignore if my posts offend you so much.

I had no problem with you until this winter. PM me if you have such an issue. You posted the same thought in different ways like 3 times in the main thread. We understand your thoughts...

"Give it a rest" - I post far less than you do.

If the GFS shows something even remotely similar then it might be time to start getting excited for a sizable storm. Plus not to sound like a weenie but i can almost guarantee that the higher qpf will move north in the next 2 days.

some people feel like they simply must post on every page even if they have absolutely nothing to say.

we need a thread for just the good amateurs and mets to post stuff about the models where all crap is pruned. the other one can be for the pointless stuff.

The funny thing is that I have never claimed to be a good forecaster. That's why the majority of the time I read. Honestly (this is not a dig against you) but you can be quite harsh sometimes. I do not understand when people lump me in with your terseness sometimes...I am generally very patient and easy going. I simply do not think that folks need to say "all solutions are on the table" in multiple posts over the course of like 20 minutes.

Check your post count.

If you have a problem with me...deal with it. I have no idea what your issue is.

I'd be more willing to agree with that if this wasn't the nam from this far out. I'm going to wait for tonight's gfs and even the euro before I get myself really invested.

That is funny, careful Mapgirl may be offended and ream you out.

As far as this, I was trying to be subtle. :).

Me and Mapgirl are tight. We're going to go sledding together. Fozz too. And your village.

Yeah...ok. Not overall count...plus, you can go ahead and subtract out all the posts I've made over the years in situations like this.

I'm not going to fight with you. It's pretty clear you are solidified into your point of view and I respect that.

Before either counting the NAm forecastrr and it's amounts ore totally dismissing them it's kind of nice looking for a consensus run on the strength of the 500h vort and where the confluence sets up. Heck the NAM has gone from a good hit, to nothing to a monster hit in the last three runs. That suggests the models still don't know how to handle the various impulses.

Look, peace, ok. I don't think I've posted anything that bad. Probably the most interesting thing about this whole storm to me is the variability of the whole thing. When I saw that 500 map on the NAM at 36, I knew (thought I did) that it was going to be vastly different. I guess I just got excited about being right for once. I am looking forward to what comes next. I wonder now if that vortex in the NE is just a bit faster to move out if this thing has a chance to go up the coast a bit. ???? I'm curious. It's not a sin.

Remember its for fun. My thoughts on this storm will have zero bearing on what actually happens. It's been a sh*t winter, and I hope just this once we can all do a little celebrating. I hope it does get giddy in here. That means we are enjoying it. Anyway, I don't have an issue with you. I was just a bit perplexed as to why you had one with me.

Enough bickering, girls and boys. This was by far the best semi-fantasy run since 2010. Enjoy it and let's see how this pans out. 0Z GFS is on the door step. We have a long weekend with a Holiday on Monday and this is by far the most fun we have had all season finally tracking something. Grab a beer and relax.
