Hey now...it was only because everyone seemed to have a love affair with the euro and claimed that they would for some reason leave the forum if the euro cut amounts in any way for the NYC area....true story !

 

no, it was if the euro spit out a GFS like solution.....you will always get ticks and wobbles from run to run. your "i told you euro will be east" tonight was really bad.... and your posts about the GFS throughout the day today was just as bad. lets be real here, the euro kicked arse and every model played catch up to it. the fact that you do not realize that makes you look foolish, unless of course you start spinning and backtracking now. .

Calm and expect the initial rain, just posting my obs. Just hoping we cool down quicker than forecast.

 

Its going to be real close, the dewpoints are not going up as much as I'd have thought, if we are 35/28 or so when precip arrives it could get interesting but then we have the issue of whats happening at 850-925 also

Most consistent all the way through was the euro....yes I'll give you that. My point was that even the euro would still wobble a bit and adjust AS DID other models with a shift east, be it cutting 4-6" or 5-10" off the total from a previous run. I was simply making the point that I feel a model run like the GFS earlier will be CLOSER to the actual outcome then something obscene like the NAM and when taking a "blend of" models...the NAM shouldn't even be factored in. Kinda like saying "well his IQ is somewhere in between a 50 and a 200"....when you see all these hyped up posts about "NYC EASILY WILL GET 30"! I can't believe this is happening!" Etc etc....that's not just as bad or WORSE than stating facts and comments on model runs, albeit with a bit of negativity to offset the false positive emotions from things such as the NAM? C'mon man....arguing over model runs is not what I'm out to do, not what I'm sure you are aiming for

Here's some select areas text sounding qpf and my opinion:

1.71" for LGA. (Maybe .25" is a mix or wet snow)

1.94' for JFK. (75" of it is mix/rain or wet snow)

2.47" for BDR. (All snow)

2.85" for ISP. (About .90" is lost to mix/rain or wet snow)

1.50" for EWR. (Maybe .24" is a mix/rain or wet snow)

.68" for ABE. (All snow)

2.39" for BOS. (All snow)

.88" for PHL (about .30" or so lost to rain/mix or wet snow)

Can you do SMQ please?

Intense deform bands have a lot higher then 10 to 1 ratios. People are forgetting that. A band like Dec. 26, 2010 or Jan. 27, 2011 would have at least 15 or 20 to 1 ratios. Don't look strictly at qpf numbers.

 

and considering a deform band tends to develop on the extreme NW side of a tightly wound system, NNJ to SE NY to SW CT are in a very good spot. could be further NW or SE, but there will be 24" amounts in there.

A good point is that jan 27,2011 the model runs I believe had us in around 1" liquid or so and we got heavy banding so I ended up with around 18"

the nam was just model porn, nothing more. some might have tossed some wieners out their kitchen windows but thats about it, and nothing wrong with that either. but the realists knew what the nam was.

 

you dont come across well in your posts. rather than just laying your ideas out, you make it your days goal to be right and prove you know it. the point is not to be right but to discuss and learn, possibly goofing up in the process, but being positive regardless of your position. yet you tend to just hammer the same thing over and over again....so no, im not arguing model runs, im arguing the way you post.
