North Balti Zen Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 From the other thread and the esteemed new member dsnowman: NE Balti Zen why don't you join the discussion rather than whine and complain about it - have something intelligent to say yourself?

Bob Chill Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I read around the subforums this morning. Lotta getting made fun of after the euro run. And rightfully so. Yea, we have plenty of pent up frustrations but still. A pinned storm thread should never be littered with so much big baby crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, we have plenty of pent up frustrations but still. A pinned storm thread should never be littered with so much big baby crap. No one ever learns. Ever. Each model run is treated as gospel and you get both the hug because it looks awesome or there is still time, too warm when it misses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 What I love best about living in an area where the four seasons are fairly distinct is that as we head towards spring the singing birds have returned. Like clockwork around 5am they start chirping while in winter...silence...these small things are fun for me much like when the leaves fall or when the fresh buds begin to sprout on the limbs....good stuff....I'm glad my senses are still sharp enough to allow me to enjoy it. I hope everyone who wants snow gets it this week...if it doesn't happen....try not to miss the forest through the trees....there's some real nice chit out there.

North Balti Zen Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Oh snap...dsnowman just called out Scuddz... Scuddz - who is this guy? So if you have not been posting here for 2+ years you have nothing to contribute? I take it back. THAT was high comedy. About time that newbies put red taggers in their place. Good times...

clueless Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Threads from last night were hilarious. And now we have reputations being impugned. Who woulda thunk?

mappy Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Bob C said: Yes. What Chill said over in the storm discussion thread. Its like nursery school in there with no mets around this morning. Or the accuwx board, if you will. It's been this way for months, not sure why today it's suddenly an issue to people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 It's been this way for months, not sure why today it's suddenly an issue to people Yes and no. When there's not much to talk about, letting banter fly at times is fine. It's really no big deal. When we are staring down the barrel of a major event it's a different story. I knocked off useless banter posts in the storm thread early yesterday afternoon. The second mets from other subforums join in with important discussion it's a no brainer to stfu unless you have real substance to add. I don't see why it's so hard but it is for some reason.

Contrary to popular opinion, the report button does elicit a pretty fast mod response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Was up all night with a puking kid. Glad to see the sun this morning it is helping me stay awake. Currently sitting at 29. That sucks. I remember being that kid a long, long time ago. I think I'll give my mom a call today just to say hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDIII Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Go ahead Alright.. this morning I read the LWX discussion, looked at the 6z GFS and said (summarizing here).. that my guess is the models cut precip significantly as we get closer to the storm and that with reduce precip rates.. we will likely see rain... And for that, I got pounded... was told that my post was "odd/ aweful" and the I really need to "stop making predicitions" Then all the sudden we were in storm mode and my post disappeared... What was wrong with what I said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was wrong with what I said? The models aren't cutting back on the track and strength of the ull or the surface lp though. There are going to be precip wobbles every run. The synoptic features all point towards an area of heavy precip. Especially nw of the slp. Precip maps verbatim are low on the priority list of things to compare.

EastCoast NPZ Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Another nice band of snow showers moving through here. Shame this didn't happen at night; we'd have gotten a dusting out of this. Two days of numerous snow showers; hopefully, we add an actual accumulating snow in a couple days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
