kevin1927 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Pete B has been very conservative for a long time and seems like a Ed Carrol forecast from BZ back in the 90's...lame ass storm forecast..I am surprised that he gave such a low end snow totals..Its gonna bite him on his arse wednesday am...sort of decieving the viewers... Stil standing his ground at 11 pm. Banking on E wind keeping Boston mainly rain. "Maybe a coating in Boston." Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 The three W. Ma tv mets going on average with 6-10" for N of Northampton. Boston mets going for 2-5" except Pete B. on ch 7 still beating the "warm ocean" keeping things mostly wet inside Rt 128. Just said a slushy inch or two for the city. Going out on a warm, wet limb there. Could be a disastah of a commute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neweathereye Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Not sure bout anyone else..but Matt Noyes snow totals are to low or is he afraid of going with the NAM qpf or what...great to give a scientific view of why and how come..but if SNE ends up getting smoked..he's gonna be wearing egg on his face tomorrow morning for breakfast..just saying..I respect Matt to the moon and back..great great Met..but eeks..rather low totals for this upcoming event...

mattb65 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Pete B: Mostly rain inside 128. Ballsy. GFS soundings depict the switch to rain for areas close to the coast after hr 36ish. NAM on the other hand does not at all, I'd favor the NAM in a setup like this when it comes to temperature profiles. I'm surprised at how cold NAM is from 900 mb up to 600mb with temps around -5c. if that's close to right wouldn't the snow growth actually be decent? Of course having the surface at 32-33 would be more a factor in poor ratios given the NAM output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Pete B is wish casting. Td tonight is 11. Air is draining in from 486 thicknessville. You can have a wind off if x40 degree water and stay subfreezing just as you can get a wind off of 68 water and be upper 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neweathereye Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 To Mattb65.......Yeah but the coast is not next to 128...WTF is he doing....Why so conservative...all models are cold..and a ton of qpf..man is he gonna bust!...seriously flawed there...just saying!

Rocket Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Still can't figure out the disparity between GFS and NAM on this one. I won't blame Pete B, or Matt N if they are off. The data doesn't seem to be any good. Sounds like a lot of wish-casting going on right now. My wish: Let any accumulating snow come in after the evening commute so there are less accidents.

MarkO Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I believe Ryan was mentioning poor snow growth earlier. Not sure if that included my area too. But I understand Noyes forecast, PB is out to lunch. T-14 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 . South trend, Shocker Yeah no surprise. The question now is.... Is the American guidance chasing the euro still? Ie this later euro swings se. Not sure it does because presumably the ukie and ggem are on board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
