Interstate Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 looks like the last 4 posters 2 in Pennsylvania and 2 near the PA border dont like the run The run does not bother me... I am just pointing out facts... I have not even looked at QPF... I am just looking at the H5 and see it is south... Does not mean it is bad for everyone.

EasternUSWX Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 looks like the last 4 posters 2 in Pennsylvania and 2 near the PA border dont like the run Just saying it is south. Don't really care if it is or not. Not expecting much here anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 looks like the last 4 posters 2 in Pennsylvania and 2 near the PA border dont like the run Lol yes. It's kinda annoying. I'm out trying to get a feel for it and you'd think it was awful going by the commentary here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 To be fair it is awful for some of us in the "Mid Atlantic" compared to the 18z run... The "Mid Atlantic" does not center around DC. noted for future posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool. But this forum also doesn't contain Pa. And although I have no issue with you guys in pa who are close by the border posting, don't seem surprised that we talk about Maryland, DC, WV, VA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And although I have no issue with you guys in pa who are close by the border posting, don't seem surprised that we talk about Maryland, DC, WV, VA I am in Northern MD.. but the 18z gives me .75 and the 0z cuts it to .25... so it is awful for me... Doesn't really matter to me this time... I have had 4 storm with 6+ inches... the 6z or 12z could bring it back north and that is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtracker Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 PA is part of the mid-Atlantic. Cool, but this forum doesn't include PA. Again, not to belabor the point...its all good that you guys post here, but just because you post here doesn't mean it's a PA forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feloniousq Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 this is the #1 US geography forum on the intertubes. I wish there was some weather discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cae Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 The discussion about crappy FB wx forecasting ventures can happen in the banter thread. Yeah, it's frustrating when you see those discussions take place in the storm thread. There are times when I'd like to chime in, but I don't want to make the situation even worse. On the other hand, this thread becomes a ghost town when banter is allowed in the storm threads. This forum works best when the mods move the banter to the banter threads (especially during storms), but I understand that's a lot of work.

anotherman Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 DC is the center of the region. Sorry. ;(It's fine, this is just the forum I associate with the most on American wx. Central PA is cool but many of them are in true central PA and not 10 miles from the M/D line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Plus no good models show that storm happening but some people keep caring what the end run nam shows. fine, I'm moving to PA tomorrow and posting snowfall maps for DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cae Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Heh, just as I posted that I refreshed and saw that some housekeeping has been done. Thanks! One of the problems might be that in the mobile version of this site, the location of the posters is not visible. So when someone says "Great run!", it's hard to tell if they're posting from Westminster or Roanoke. On the full version of the site, you can just get used to glancing at the poster's location when they post an opinion. I don't find that annoying at all -- it's actually pretty informative to get real-time updates as to how the models have shifted in different areas around here, even if they're just across the state line. I know I'm usually focused IMBY when looking at real-time output, and I'm sure others are as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 The reason I don't look at the nam past 48 hours is because of its high resolution. Tiny errors with initial conditions become grand canyon sized errors down the line. It should stop at 48-54 like the rgem. Nam is a good tool for certain things. And a monster ull at the end of its run with zero support is nothing more than a massively magnified error.I know most know this but it's always worth repeating Thanks for explaining this Bob. I never understood why it wasn't useful past 48 hours, beyond that it was usually wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristowWx Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 We are headed toward a WWA and moving toward last call for winter..could be worse I suppose..my advice is not to wait for Euro...it will be sadly sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clueless Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Another storm thread that' has been painful to read. Some mean and snarky stuff. Moderators should do some moderating. Also, it was full of weenisms. I thought general non-specific bull**** goes here. If you wanted to learn anything about model analysis it was a hard slog. Lol. Just mis-posted this in the storm thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdhokie Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I figure I won't be disappointed if I set my expectations at 2-4". I think we'll be closer to the 2 than the 4. I feel a repeat of 3/3 and lowering expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I figure I won't be disappointed if I set my expectations at 2-4". Good thing about this storm is I really don't care about it. We've had enough snow this season to keep me satisfied, so this isn't a storm that we need to salvage a season or anything. It's going to warm up within a few days of the storm, too. That's enough to make me happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hosj III Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Yeah kind of the point I was trying to make. For those who want to worry about something, temps are not on the top of the list. When are we going to make a storm worriers thread? It looks like the radar is drying up in western Kentucky/Tennesee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
