Ginx snewx Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Why is it that 00Z goes to 240 hr and 12z only goes to 180 hr? I remember when we hacked GGEM on WWBB and were able to get 180-240 which was not public on the Canadian Met site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 GGEM always shows a super hybrid at this time of year. Every modelhas it's BS and todays run was classic GGEM BS. I guess it's theoretically possible like Hazel 1953 then again, It's also possible the world ends on Devcember 21st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 What was that site with all the VT winter data? ? Not sure which one you are talking about... BTV has great climate data, and J.Spin's page is epic for snow/skiing data in this area. J.Spin's page is a great one to wander around...details about every snowfall over the past 6 years, from 0.1" falls to 30-inchers. His lowest snowfall was 127.7" last year and highest was 203.2" in 07-08. http://jandeproductions.com/weather.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Lol - that's why I'm not. I saw that Euro solution from (I think it was 12z yesterday, or perhaps 00z the night before) and thought, "nope, not clever - nice try". The the CMC came out, "still not caving". try and try as it must, I will not be suckered into being a victim of its evil games - ahahaha. actually, in all seriousness, although exciting (I'm not brain dead to the obvious) I really have no desire to have to endure a CMC aftermath. Let's think of that in discrete probability terms. Having an accelerating Category 2 hurricane would likely do what we all know, pretty much take out the entire infrastructure from BOS-ALB. BUT, then having a powerful cold front wrap in behind with freezing air? - I don't have any ambitions on something like that. No thanks. Think of this, if serious enough you wouldn't be "on-line" for over week or more; kind of makes the novelty of celebrating an enormous event with a community of kin thinkers futile. I agree entirely... I always wish for the most destructive or most exciting weather event possible that could transpire without taking with it my power and internet. I still think it must've been hard for some of those weather weenies after last year's October snow when they couldn't discuss what was happening or what just happened online for a week...by then the initial rush of "wow" has already passed. I'm going to remember that line because its entirely true...if you can't share big events with a community of similar thinkers...it definitely loses a little luster. Its sort of sad, but its true. This weather community makes up a big part of big storms. Its funny because sometimes you think folks would rather experience a big storm from a computer (radar, models, obs, discussion) rather than actually being out in the storm. I'm actually on the fence about what gives me the greatest satisfaction...I love being out in a blizzard, skiing and experiencing it, but I also love watching it on radar, sat presentation, and discussing it on here as it happens. The best combo is going outside for a bit...then coming in and checking the inter-webs, then heading back out...repeat till storms end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 VT university? The only UVM site that has good data is the SkiVT-L site which has all the Mansfield Stake graphs: http://www.uvm.edu/skivt-l/ Either way, I was just looking at the top storms in BTV and am still absolutely astonished at this one fact... Of the Top 16 snowstorms since 1883 in Burlington, 8 of them have happened since 2000. That's 50% of the top 16 snowstorms at BTV have occurred in the past 12 years...while the other 50% fell in the prior 117 years. That is absolutely ridiculous. Last 12 years - 8 top 16 snowstorms Prior 117 years - other 8 top 16 snowstorms Mind-blowing climate stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 As the quasi-banter thread I don't mind posting this here...but its absolutely ridiculous how lucky we have been in the past 12 years. This is BTV's top 16 snowstorms since 1883. 8 of them happened after 2000! Is that just by chance or are we just seeing bigger storms these days?

In the old days, they almost always measured snow depth, sticking a ruler into the ground. This produces lower totals than the modern method of measuring each 6-hours.

We're just not sure on evolution quite yet It could easily be a fropa with some heavy rain. A lot has to work out to get a Tippy stem winder. Not out of the question, but I wouldn't favor it.
