Bruce Schwoegler was big into backlash. How did that work out for him?

 

 

I remember my Dad yelling at him on the T.V. Must have screwed up some forecasts in his day.

 

 

He was the Bastardi of Boston TV mets.  Loved his enthusiasm as a kid but Harvey Leonard would always bring me back to earth and was usually correct.

Bruce Schwoegler's best gaffes...

1. Saying a hurricane was moving on land in sne due to SE winds at MWN steering the system..oy vey!

2. Calling for 30-40 inches in Boston right on the doorstep of a rainstorm.

That March 2001 event through many for a loop.

 

Which hurricane was that? LOL

Edouard?

Honestly I can't remember much more than a tall chubby guy with lighter hair if I'm correct that would get extremely excitable. My pops would get really annoyed when he overhyped something and usually the whole house would know it.

No that one Barry screwed up. It was I. The early 1970s. My weenie friend and I would get together to watch the late wx...all 3 stations then. See how deprived we were before the internet? Anyway we both cracked up over Bruce's idiocy often.

Man alive is the RGEM flat at 48 hours...even flatter than the NAM...I did not expect that

And considering that it usually has a NW bias in it's LR, that's worth noting... To be fair, RGEM has been terrible in the last few events that we had, but it's still a much more reliable piece of guidance than the NAM and having it agree with it(or at least extrapolated to agree) does lend it a shred of credence.

The RGEM every once in awhile is flat at 48 but its usually more the case on events where all globals are fairly far offshore and misses.

C'mon guys, pick up your game or don't post...lots of posts not adding much. I'm not saying this to be mean, but this is supposed to be an analysis thread. Not an "i hope this happens for MBY" thread.

 

I'm not stopping anyone from starting a thread for that stuff.

Ha. I get what you're saying. However until the euro moves that way I will firmly believe this is not going to whiff. Ack track as others have said. Just enjoy the early season snow.

I don't think so either, but it was nice to finally see the inexorable drift westward of guidance met with some resistance from a viable source.

We do this on another wxboard that I help moderate, have a thread for analysis/models and one for banter/forecasts and it works pretty well usually, so I figured I'd make a storm banter thread and we'll give it a shot.

I don't understand why the NAM doesn't go bonkers with this into Atlantic City. I would expect something absurd from this model. Weird to see it flatter than the globals.

 

 

It's still kind of early...remember even in the Feb 2013 blizzard it was flat until about 48 hours out and then it started doing crap like jackpotting N NJ.
