mattb65 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 What is that record? What was it 303 days i think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Now there is a record i can be proud of I'm pulling for it. But we'll probably eek out something like 0.1 at some point to screw that up as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Well...I feel like I did after the 2003 ALCS. Just a sick feeling. I don't want a petty snow shower out of this...if we're going to get kicked in the ballz...might as well be for the knock out. FU to the EURO. Dr. No is nothing but Dr. Turd.

PWMan Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 There's still a little inverted trough action for NNE/ENE. But it's a far cry from the 00z Euro. Looks like about 0.10 around ORH...0.20ish around BOS and here...a little over 0.25 for PWM. I've had it with inverted troughs and retro garbage. Maybe if I lived in Bangor or Eastport that would be some consolation, but it won't happen here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorEastermass128 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 What was it 303 days i think? Yup...we're at 293 or 294 right now. Horrendous. This year could rival the great winter of 2006-2007. What did Boston have 1.5" seasonal snowfall by 1/1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 As far as I' m concerned 2010 has been about 95% wx failure from my perspective. Almost every storm missed last winter. (Yes one huge exception here in late Feb. by the skin of our teeth so 5%...but u can't live 360 days on 5 days of glory). Then the abhorrently warm summer followed by a hurricane season that produced like 19 storms and no threats of interest anywhere near us. Now a cold December that may average out above normal precip-wise without one good snowstorm. Assuming this thing plays out as currently progged, it fits perfectly with the last 12 months in this area - lots of teases and no substance. Last winter had all those huge storms and the only one not a clean miss arrived after all the cold air had rotted out - nearly 4" qpf from a perfectly placed LP in Feb and only mush. This past summer I think we had more severe wx watches than in any previous, and we never even had a moderately strong TS (had to go to Illinois to see that.) In fact, we've had only 8 days with thunder all year, easily the least I've had here and less than half of my avg. Now we get storm teases and no-shows during what was supposed to be the best part of a La Nina winter. Guess it all fits together. Can't even get real cold in this area - though CON is exactly normal for 12/1-16, PWM is +0.6, BGR about +2, CAR +9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if I lived in Bangor or Eastport that would be some consolation, but it won't happen here. I've had better success with inverted troughs than the full-fledged retro lows recently. It's better than 35F and sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember the last time one of those actually delivered here. As for 35 and sun, that feels pretty nice. If it's not going to snow I'll take the sun on these absurdly short days (2.5 hours of daylight left...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneypitmike Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I know it's not worth getting all bent out of shape over, but how the F*ck could everything be so off from 24 hours, even less than that ago. I freaking knew when I woke up today that this crap was gonna happen. I tried to keep myself from going on line earlier today, but I did so just the same, just to see, and it was just what I expected. Now, I don't even think I'll see a freaking flurry before Christmas. Hats off to those in Virginia who got their 3" or so this week. . . . Truly pathetic. I apologize for the rant, but hey, my wife doesn't give a crap, and people at work surely don't know what the hell I'm talking about, so this is a good a place as any. I'm out. I just showed this post to my wife--she burst out laughing. It is SOOOOO true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan11 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 This is probably what it was like forecasting in the 60's and 70's with just the LFM, etc. I know I recall events as a kid where a winter storm watch was up and the next day it's partly cloudy. This kind of crazy miss may have been routine. This is what 30 years of tweaking wx models has achieved. Wow this is probably one of the biggest model FUs within 72 hours of an event I've seen in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys get plenty of norluns...those are inverted troughs. Heck there was one along the downeast coast this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Euro is advertising an increasingly colder and mainly dry save for the odd flurry week. It is what it is. At least I won't risk a heart attack shoveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, at least retros keep things a bit interesting being somewhat of a novelty around here. It's been snowing off & on here all week--light stuff, hit & run--but I'll take it. Westerlies are boring.

weathafella Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I'm starting to think if it's possible we can go 0 for a winter. Busts my forecast hugely but it may be worth it to see if we can have a cold winter and 0 snow. Intriguing and perhaps worth chasing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems worst than most though. It's okay. some light snow and cold for Christmas would be nice on the week before.. and thats looking possible.
