GFS and ECMWF both nail the southern regions with the most snow. Ah well. Looks like they'll be playing catch-up the entire time. They use GEFS at this range all the time, which is still north of OP and euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the first time in my life I've had to use the credit card to buy oil instead of using a check. I've had to fill-up nearly twice as often as usual, meaing instead of paying $600 every 2 months, this year it's been $600 each month. I mean really...this HAS to break at some point, doesn't it? I can't afford much more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawatch Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 This truck was in Clarion County somewhere. Be interesting to see what it looks like when they recover it.

I had previously read a few weeks ago, I think it was Paul Pastelok from AccuWx speculating on the impact of the primarily frozen lakes with regards to our low temps which I def agree with. Basically with the lakes virtually frozen over (88% as of mid February), we're seeing little to no modification of these cold air masses from Canada... and thus our temperatures have been diving below zero on a regular basis this winter. Makes me wonder what kind of temps we see in the wake of this coming storm if it lays down a fresh deep snow pack. Those insane low temps the GFS has cranked out from time to time might not be that far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I-83 BLIZZARD Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Ah nam is the nam. It has it's value but that is limited to 24 hrs before game time. Even then it's still the nam lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizz Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 The NAM never ceases to amaze me... We would all be hugging it ATM though if it showed wave 1 a bit colder/se and wave 2 further north... But I dont think you can get both. GGEM from a few days ago maybe would be a "perfect storm"...Either way not taking it seriously unless GFS looks similar...

I've also heard that it could make it colder in spring because the ice will be slower to go away. I mean, Erie is going to be next to a giant icebox for a while this spring.

NortheastPAWx Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Isn't anyone the slightest bit concerned that a usually amped model is so far south? My worry with this has been suppression right from the start, and the trend right now is south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
