Ginx snewx Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 cweat can hide under a false name, but his RUC fetish is undeniable! Bang away my Lulu! That was his name on WWBB, we all knew him as Messenger then, one night we had this great storm which destroyed the Maine Coast , we chatted all night as buoy after buoy was knocked off line with sub 950 readings recorded. Walt Drag read our comments and submitted to NOAA our requests for more buoys, he actually posted a year later that a new buoy was being deployed.

Mr Torchey Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Convective feedback much less of an issue, northern lp dominant , nam is moving to a solution, will it be enough by 18z tomorrow, 850 looks decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 They picked up 6-8" last night and some friends e-mailed me some picks from this afternoo and it looked good but they aren't officially open. Earned turns. They need a real pasteing of heavy base building material, they've been getting fluffy goose feathers but it's so airy it's easy to bottom out. I think they'll spin the lifts this week. Hope we get some big snow soon or I'll have to listen to my AK friends tell how bad it sucks here and why I need to move up there. I almost want them to have to ski bulletproof mm hardpack/ice this coming week so I can rag on them for being powder divas. The reason I asked was on the way home I heard the VT snow reports of 6-8 new overnight, they mentioned all the resorts cept for MRG, that rain must have put some good boilerplate down.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 cweat can hide under a false name, but his RUC fetish is undeniable! Bang away my Lulu! This was actually the original name which for whatever reason I couldn't register on the board that imploded We all have fetishes, you guys just made 300 pages of posts in a few days over a storm system that wasn't even on the continent yet, I enjoy tracking in closer. I don't criticize that although at this point this entire endeavor seems ridiculous whether it's further out or closer in the result is the same. We are in the middle of a historically bad streak. This one is probably a done dog, it just can't get past a line just off ACK. There may be an incredibly sharp gradient and we may get to watch those in VA and NC celebrate, but it blows here again. Nice to see a big jump in QPF with the northern extent vs earlier runs but what difference does it make for us, there's the same suck zone blocking everything again. This one may be so close we can watch it on radar as yet another opportunity passes us by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 As I spend ten minutes typing out an email defending myself....I like the NAM. I like the trend. I don't think it's enough yet....but getting much much closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Break fail. You know what would be fascinating, take a comprosite of March\Dec 2010 heights and contemplate that we have recieved just about 0 snow in that time frame.....even I can't whine because that is just so metorologically fascinating. It's good....I took some deep breaths today; weather is analagous to baseball in that in the end, it all evens out and you will have the stats you should have. Whenever ma nature decides to regress to the mean, we are going to have one of those Dec 15-Jan 15 1996, Feb 1969, March 2001, March\Jan 2005 type deal in which you are ultimately trying to will the atmosphere into to NOT snowing and your efforts will be in vane.

Agree good to see it strenthen the northern energy, consolidating a bit, 300 500 700 all look much better this run, and its a touch slower, still time to get a light snow event for sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain Baldies in CT brought up your fetish at a certain GTG this summer in a funny way. No disrespect meant. I will look at the RUC just to see what it is all about... oh, PSU, where are you?

It's almost all natural (they have 2 antique guns).lol The steep stuff needs a pretty deep base to be viable. The AK set is skiing in Washington State right now as they slowly ski their way to the East Coast. . I'm not sure I'll be able to look at all the deep pow footage they''ll be subjecting me to once they land Monday. Kind of a cool thing going on here right now. It's snowing lightly but the stars are out. Looks like some weak upsloping on the other side of the spine and the remnants are drifting down.

Ray, I know...but the Ruc does at times have value. Right now it's more for entertainment...but I'd love to see it keep trending at 6z...IE sniff out that subtle shift that helped make this a real squeaker now. I think we'd even be more pissed if there werent' feedback issues as we watch a ridiculous CCB just off the cape. I think you have to like the trend Ginx. I am eager to see the 0z suite now. If they all come west.... Look at the jump in 12 hours on the NAM. Hey why does twister make it look like we're going to get smoked vs the reflectivity from the HPC which isn't as robust? http://www.twisterdata.com/index.php?prog=forecast&model=NAM&grid=221&model_yyyy=2010&model_mm=12&model_dd=18&model_init_hh=00&fhour=54¶meter=CREF&level=SURFACE&unit=none&maximize=n&mode=singlemap&sounding=n&output=image&view=large&archive=false Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good run. It is normal for models to tick west some, ask Minneapolis, they were not the epicenter two days out but the ticks west crushed them, however for us ticks cause Lyme Disease.

I can wait. 100% Agree! We're in a hitter's slump. If there is anything, any way to NOT make it snow, it's happening, but it will compensate at some point with one of those stretches when it snows no matter what. It's fascinating to witness first-hand, in both cases. That said, wouldn't mind a little festive coating for Christmas week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good run. priceless took a few steps away from the board last few days......spent time skiing. ......ray heard you on the americanwx talk last nite....you had weenies coming out our eyebrows....i wanted to call in ....but my gf was like ...."wtf are you listening to we gotta get up at 5 am" but i wanted to ask a basic question. after 12z euro yesterday it seemed the planets came into allignment with the storm ...nearly all models consensus on a big coastal....then poof it dissapeared with one swat of the cosmic dildo......cruel and effective. There was always one thing that i thought made this KU unlikely thou i was gung ho....for a few hours yesterday afternoon....then i listed to the radio talk which was AWESOME.....it seemed Wes....was on top of things ......being very skeptical of a KU since it has never happend when 3.4 enso region had 1c or cooler readings .....but then i hoped it would shift east and just clobber SNE.....either way i think we are headed for a 40-50% annual snowfall number. Don S is betting heavy on a jan 10 -feb 10 or so milder than normal period (we will prob. actually get more snow in this pattern lol) .....and it appears your snowy march is still very much on the table but we will have to bet on a -NAO delivering for us to get there....hopefully enso regiion 3.4 is -.80 or less negative so a KU is on the table. a 10 month hibernation/ coma/nap would come in handy right about now.
