jums300 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 In these types of events being super definitive is pretty dumb. He should know that. There are some historical rules locally that usually work out ... low forms too slowly for DC at least ... small shifts make big surface changes etc. At least he has a FB page where he can ban people who get on his nerves. LOL! Exactly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also, why doesn't he just wait until the 12z Euro comes out? If it hangs on to it's previous solution, he can say the GFS is goofy with some back up at least. As it is now, if the Euro comes out like the GFS he'll look dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 What was jacks finally tally yesterday? It was impressive...and alcohol had to have been involved. He's still at 43 last 24 hrs so probably quite a few. Somehow that's only 1/3 of CoastalWx in the last 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how much it contradicts whatever he just said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needbiggerboat Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 lol...I've gotten better.. most people aren't interested in meteorology..they want you to tell them it is going to snow in their backyard, and it is transparent 100% of the time no matter how deftly they think they phrase the question. Well, even with your anger and other assorted issues you certainly know your stuff. Impressive elephant-like memory of local winter events going back years. I just think you just invest too much of your mental state in whether/how much it snows IYBY. Precarious thing to do around here, unless you enjoy manic depression.

EastCoast NPZ Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 and 12 euro, Orton pick That'd be my bet, although for sheer drama and torture the pick will happen a little closer to the event; maybe 12z Euro Wed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precarious thing to do around here, unless you enjoy manic depression. Some of us have been chatting on these places for like 15-20 years now. 10 years ago explaining minute details to every n00b that asked might have been fun but these days, especially with the focus on day 7+... meh. Bob could probably be a teacher though, he appears rather patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 oops not a big deal though i think that was legit commentary.. even if it came from banter. which is why i usually don't delete much in the other thread especially when it's still relatively quiet. messes with conversation that might not otherwise pop up.

I understand that this isn't always the best place to learn stuff but I feel like the learning curve is really steep and it helps to have lots of people available to explain things in different ways.

Yeah, might not be a bad idea. I'm happy to get into details myself but not as much on something I don't think is going to happen. Some people spend a whole lot of time on that which is great but seems a little useless in the end to me personally. But I already waste so much time it's partly I need to figure out which things to waste my time on as there is a limited supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precarious thing to do around here, unless you enjoy manic depression. I'm not sure what anger or assorted issues... There are a bunch of annoying IMBY people who give nothing to the forum and just want to take take take...I typically don't indulge them..if that means I have anger and assorted issues, so be it...
