chubbs Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Sorry Chubbs...I would never insult a professional on this site. I guess I am different from many on here as I value all professionals and their insights...but I can't make others show this respect....but it is kind of sad to see IMHO..... Paul He doesn't act like a professional though. He berated NWS on the ice storm and prior snow forecast. Yet his call for blizzard conditions on I95 today is far far worse.

ChescoWx Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Sigh....that was NOT ever a forecast....that was a model analysis hence the "if" ....as of 3 days ago he had PHL at around 6"....not a blizzard. I totally get why u dislike him but many of us find him well worth the money...I would suggest you ignore the vendor thread in the future....as the NWS certainly and Mt Holly NWS in particular is the best source for weather....but many folks like me have enjoyed JBs tremendous insights into weather for many years. quote name="chubbs" post="2908469" timestamp="1395796646"]From your sunday PM post "One of the two should be the stronger of the two systems.

THAT is indeed a forecast. Chubbs is on point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceman56 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I'm almost ashamed to mention it, but JB says good chance of rain ending as snow Sunday evening/night just to the NW of a line from NE MD to NW of PHL to NYC. Also definite area of snow from NE OH to western NY occurring earlier (that I'll believe). Regardless, a crappy next few days is assured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 JB continues to say he expects snow into South Central PA up toward ABE and possibly into the NW burbs of Philly tomorrow night....I have a sneaky suspicion he could be right in some of the relatively higher spots. He also is highlighting winter's last hurrah in 10 days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

famartin Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 If models are to be believed, it will have great difficulty sleeting or snowing in PHL or even ABE. Guidance is keeping temperatures aloft there too warm. I did check areas further south and its handling the colder air there well, so one can give some credence to it.
