HoarfrostHubb Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Noyes still not buying it for our area. At some point doesn't he have to acknowledge what the models are showing? He is stubborn. I don't think he is a NAM fan...or GFS...or SREFs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoarfrostHubb Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 whats he saying? Matt Noyes ✔ @MattNoyesNECN There is common ground in the data, though - Cape gets it good. Plymouth County MA, Maine, too. Elsewhere on the fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butterfish55 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 whats he saying? Look at his Twitter and Facebook feeds. Totally downplaying it anywhere off the Cape or DE ME. Don;t know why this bothers me so much, but...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROOSTA Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 He is stubborn. I don't think he is a NAM fan...or GFS...or SREFs He went off on the NAM in his website. Sounded like he wanted to marry it, a whole page on how it's thermals are superior.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTWeatherFan Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Really wish I was at my family's place in Brewster, MA this one. Sounds like it's gonna be wild! But alas, good luck all! I'll be in Michigan for this one lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that now... had not looked at his page in a while... hmmm From his mattnoyes.net site: The issue of rain/snow line is not a new win for the NAM, either. With a higher resolution, the model has long been better at resolving surface airmasses, and this is critically important when resolving the difference between ocean air and antecedent arctic air. That tendency has held true thus far this winter...while some forecasters may discard the NAM entirely, those who use it actively have seen its superior performance in marginal temperature regimes. While the NAM rarely has totally nailed the location of rain/snow lines, it has been far closer than its counterparts thus far this season. The result of this difference in handling low-level airmasses is to see vastly different snowfall solutions, if you compare the guidance. For instance...

JC-CT Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Arian 24" Actually, come to think of it, your attachment belt is too tight. So the auger is engaging even when you don't have the right handle trigger pressed down. On the cable coming from the right handle down to the main unit, there should be a metal nut. Loosen the nut to the left until the auger doesn't spin on its own anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 That's where I purchased it. I'll check them in the morning. I pray it's that easy. Many thanks!lol, shear pins and you don't know about them, dude.... Big big man deduction points for that. You probably have them on the blower in the storage compartment on top, so easy. DUDE....

weathafella Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Maybe Noyes bought the nam h85 flooding all of sne with warmth and him calling for rain inside 495 6 hours before most of us got 18. His love affair explains that forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC-CT Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Sort of, but not really. I have an Ariens sub-brand Sno-Thro I bought two years ago. Running like the day I bought it, but the auger was spinning on its own when I bought it, had to make the same adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought a set of 4 this year at Lowest after the shear bolt I had failed after sucking up a dog Kong this year. I make paths for our dogs all over the yards.

Go Kart Mozart Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Can anyone remember two powerhouses like this in such close proximity? Both April 1982 and April Fools 1997 had big wet storms 2.5 to 3 days prior, but that's April not February! When I read historical accounts like the "big snow" back in the 1700s I would think...come on...this is BS. But now I can see how it is possible for someone to get 5 feet in three or four days. Really remarkable weather the last several years. These are the good old days (sorry Carly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC-CT Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 rug rats, 2 bichon, boston terrier, chihuahua and a shiba inuHa, nice. I have a toy poodle that is smaller than average. I also have a sheltie that is fatter than average, but she runs hot...so let me tell you, she LOVES the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotb Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Geez, I haven't been online since yesterday, and I'm no expert, so I can't understand a lot of what you guys are saying, but reading between the lines, I'm shocked there is something big coming tomorrow. You all are talking about tomorrow, right? Ray/Jay, what are you calling for in this area? I literally had no idea. Last time I looked at this threat, folks were talking about 1-2", but now it seems like you all are saying much more than that. What's the deal?

Dotb Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Yep, I saw the pinned thread, but it seems to be a lot more technical than most threads recently, and I can't make heads or tails of what to expect. That's why I posted here in the banter thread. Don't want to bother anyone, been trying to read and learn for a few years around here, but that discussion is way over my melon at this point.
