Hmm, out of curiosity I just checked accuwx almanac and see we only have recieved .34 inches of precip in March in Trumbull CT.  It looks like what ever happens on Monday may put some more in the bucket, but I had no idea we are so far below for March.

That goes back to 2/18 or so.  We've been bone dry and bitter cold during the last 30 days

While we jackpotted with snow the beginning of winter and into beginning of febraury. Now the mid atlantic is equalizing it with there share of snowstorms now a la suppression due to the PV. Its all a cycle, eventually moisture in copious amounts will find its way here again

Me,my mom and Dad ( RIP ) in Lake George in August of 2011. This was our last vacation together before my dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer in October 2011. He started chemo in October and lasted until April when he had to go into hospice.On April 18,2012, he passed away at 52 years old. Next month is going to make 2 years. How fast time flies.

yes she is! Did she turn you into a white rice eating, chicken adobo-loving fool like myself?! Their food is amazing.

Haha I guess I'm the third with a filipina wife ! Adobo is yummy but I love some of the others even more, such as the beef calderetta and Pancit. Yummy stuff !!

Oh hell yes Pancit is amazing. They also have some weird breakfast soup, I forget what tis called, they put hot dogs and noodles and stuff in it. It looks weird but it is delicious. I'll ask her about Beef calderette, I may have eaten it without even knowing

I'll ask my wife about that breakfast soup. Another good soup is called "arroz caldo". Very soothing and great for wintertime. I've been to the Philippines a few times, have you been yet? Very nice place especially outside of the cities. True tropical climate and each region has their own special foods. We got shrimp that seemed nearly a foot long right as it came off the boat! Funny thing is that Filipinos love breakfasts that just consist of eggs, rice, and spam or some type of sausage haha

He still deciding whether to use the reliable carl gustav or a more advanced javelin for the head shot :lol:

I know he was just trying to say the person who started the thread would have to face the consequences whatever they may be - BUT on a more serious note I believe for him to be taken seriously in the future he has to back up what he said with the appropriate action because this place is out of control and that thread is heading in the same direction as the other premature storm threads - model analysis pbp at 5 + days is a joke.........

I dont think its that far out of whack. You must admit at this stage the last storm we didnt have nowhere near the ensemble/operational support of the GFS/ECMWF that we have now and it was just the GGEM that was taken as gospel. Current setup looks more promising IMO im not saying alot more just looks to have more legs due to the better support it has on the idea of a possible powerful coastal storm on the EC next week. Also mitchell volk started it and hes pretty sharp ( not saying that due to him being a red-tagged )

not about if the threat is legit - its about following rules which some people around here do not understand - for instance when we are in a thread where a storm is imminent the banter makes it impossible to navigate through the thread to find posts that are meaningful thats why threads get to 50 pages so fast

That i agree with you on. We all add to that in some way though for humurous purposes as well, the personal responses saying "terrible analysis" etc. IMO are more dangerous for a threads credibility. Im not pointing any fingers as it is not my job to do so but that is a bigger problem. What we should do is have a thread for banter regarding the storm and a strictly model analysis PBP thread that banter is strictly moderated.

So why are you in there and calling people weenies? You're no better than the clutterers you're complaining about. Ignore the thread until 3 days out if you have a problem with it.

+1. Nobody is forcing him to post. This type of complaining over when threads are started. Who started them, etc etc is just as bad as anything else

why should that bother you ? Other folks did it but the difference with me is - I did it and then deleted my posts this morning to try and reduce the unnecessary posts in there - thats what everyone else should do to keep the nonsense posts from building a thread to 50 pages in a couple of days
