ravensrule Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 No John Collins is number 2. Well I should not say that with certainty but a guy who works there told me Collins is 2 but he could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 No John Collins is number 2. Maybe by time at the station...but John is the weekend's guy. Pann is #2 ranking after TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOVAForecaster Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 And now we move on to the next system with snow potential. 18Z GFS at hour 240: Long ways out but it has been on the 06Z and 12Z GFS in the same day or two time frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 But Tom T., the head met, started that crap on Friday evening. Yes he did and he is generally extremely conservative so i was shocked. I guess every Met has an inner JB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess every Met has an inner JB. agreed, and have always liked Tom T for the most part with his forecasts. On a related note, I am liking the new guy on WMAR. He handled this thing well going back to Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 This is going to be one guiet thread this week. We'll see if anything realistic starts materializing this week on the models, otherwise it may be time to close it down and start the early sping banter thread. I have a question about the mjo. After watching it for months and FINALLY have it roll through 8-1-2, why did the east remain warm? I don't understand the teleconnection beyond the #'s and basic forcing but something else clearly stood in the way of the mjo helping us this time around.

Kevin Druff Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 richmond is an even bigger bust town than dc... no one who is not half brain dead believed they were getting a big snow funny...i said the same thing in a different thread. What winter storm dosent include some kind of disaster in Richmond Bump and troll, baby. Bump and troll... Ian, where was your road trip to again? Oh, right. The Richmond metro area. My son had a great time making a snowman with his parents this morning in our 4+" of disaster this morning. P.S. I troll now only because I can't tell you the number of times I've sat in Richmond with 35* and rain and had to listen to my in-laws in Bethesda and my family in Staunton tell me about the snow they're getting.

WxUSAF Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 hopefully, we can all come through next year if the CFSv2 weak NINO comes true http://www.cpc.ncep....3/glbSSTSea.gif I like the look of that. Although I've heard people mentioning "nina hangover" for next year and that last year was really a "nino hangover". Not sure exactly what that means scientifically (or if it's scientific at all). Ironically, some folks in the main forum were saying a neutral SST profile would be even worse than a 3rd year nina? Again not sure if that's just based on analogs or what. Are there any good maps (calling mapgirl!) of total seasonal snowfall for 09-10 and 10-11 for the entire NE corridor from VA to ME? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
