i never had a good feeling about this one back here...last nights rund demolished what modest optimism i had....i even thought box forecast of three to five inches was on the high side but for awhile it looked possible. i have seen this movie many times before but what makes this one especially brutal is that the track under different circumstances couldve produced back here and it wouldve been perfect to make a good pack great to epic....the thing is bombing on its way to the bm from the south but its just a tight system with not throwing enough moisture back until its just a wee bit too far

Scott..every post of yours..and i mean every one tries to look for ways to have other areas to your west especially somehow get screwed. You make veiled, masked comments about how qpf has cut off out west or how things will tic SE.. and how it looks bleak etc.etc..but try to make it look like you really aren't doing that. It's fine..everyone here knows the games  .You do it with every storm..without fail. . That's your mantra  . 

I remember reading the model threads during the Feb 2013 Blizzard, when he was poo-pooing it AFTER the storm because it didn't stall long enough to give him 24", it only gave him 15" or something. How it was a complete model fail, and how the storm could have been so much more than it was. Yeah, not IMBY-centric, not a debbie downer, no way...

Radar looks really tough west of this main band...as it builds up the returns are diminishing.  There's another punch coming in from western LI that may help you.

How much so far?

How much snow tonight?

If we're in the model/discussion thread and the most severe/western most model that was "leading the pack" yesterday keeps going east I don't think it's an invalid point to make mention. I think I made one mistaken post in the banter thread where you guys are free to discuss your weenies or westward wagons or whatever.

The Euro did the same...and the NAM...and the RGEM and it was a noteworthy trend particularly if you're sitting in western MA or CT right now as they all continued to bunch the QPF along the boundaries. This was the major point of contention between the wider spread GFS and the others. I don't see where it's an issue to discuss and IMO part of the issue is that it may have affected you and therefore...didn't like the tick. You can bet if it went west by 5.6 miles were run it would have been mentioned 1000 times.

People are really way too sensitive about snow, it's odd. I don't know where 99% of you live and I don't care, so at no time are my comments directed at anyone unless I specifically point it out. I really don't have time for the nonsense...I'm here because I like discussing the weather with some of these guys dating back to the early/mid 90s. I don't have time, nor do I care for the insanity of my snow/your snow nor do I worry about hurting someones feelings.

Rarely have I been adamant about things this year, one was yesterday with the rain snow line and I don't think that was a bad thought it rained a lot further north earlier than people thought...and today when I thought the GFS had a feedback issue that had it spreading QPF too far west. Most of the time I just don't care enough any longer mainly because of crap like today.

2-2.5 so far , well within Ryan's forecast of 2-4 which I posted earlier today was reasonable. You're just trolling.

 

You stated your opinion, I stated mine.  It's the banter thread.

 

I don't think my pessimism west of I95 is going to turn out to be a bad thing at all, even if it hurt some feelings.

 

I will definitely try to go Bob Ross on the next storm in only post happy thoughts.

Yes sorry...for some reason you kept quoting my responses to someone else as if we were having a discussion.

 

It's tiresome, I see why people leave and don't post here any longer.

 

I was very pessimistic west of 95, I don't think that's going to turn out to be a Debbie downer thing...and it's unfair that it was characterized as such.

Theres a dude on there named Rich Brody who follows me and he reported 2.2 the same time you did on here, so I thought maybe you was he

No, but it's a small town so totals are pretty consistent.

Speaking of which, about 100% of that snow is still on the main roads, cars not making it up hills. Just drove to the packy, not sure I'll make it back home.

Why is the news so negative about snow? It really irks me. I'd say only 50% of the public does not like snow. If you don't like snow the move to Florida already! The way they spin it you'd think we were getting 10 feet with polar bears eating kittens

  Agreed. The whining on social media sites is almost unbearable. We live in the Northeast. It snows. Move south if you're going to complain every time it snows.

Lol I feel like people are realllly going to be busting the collective met community's balls if this ends up being a dud after the endless uncertainty of the SQL storm and then this with the pop up blizzard warnings two days later.

I definitely stand by my belief that nothing the rest of this season will beat the obliteration that was the 1/2-3 system, for my area anyway.
