WhitinsvilleWX Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I don't post much but I do watch and try to learn this stuff. And it's no secret I don't like snow, winter and basically survive the next 3 months counting down to April 1st. But, seems to me that in order to get you guys the snow you crave the QBO needs to relax some and the MJO needs to hurry and get thru 4 and 5. AO and NAO aren't favorable either. Most probably don't like it, but persistence is probably the best forecast method at this point. We could get a few inches here and there, maybe, but consistent, widespread, plowable snow in the next 2-3 weeks doesn't seem to be in the cards. Late January and February is the snow maker.

I don't see anything concrete to really make this call. Using persistence in a completely different pattern than we just had for most of December is asking to get burnt in the forecast world.

CoastalWx Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Persistence works in the tropics . It won't get you far at 42N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 It was Sony. My parents gave it to me after hearing me complain I don't have a great stereo. I can still get the little speakers to really make it surround , but the sound bar and woofer sound awesome. How do you use your turntable with that?

Zeus Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Well you guys have really done a bang up job so far!! Lol Go a snow soon, you just wait. 10 more days, 5 more days. It'll change, just wait. Sure it will. A broke clock is right twice a day. A broke clock can't afford to be so sloppy with such remarks. The folks here have done as good as job as one could hope in assessing the potential of the patterns as we've seen them come and go. By no means did anyone of repute guarantee snow herein that I recall. But then again, I'm not pulling anything from my rectum at the moment and then firing back when rightly dismissed, rather than defending my own gargled refuse, so it's not really a detail on which I've kept close watch.

Ginx snewx Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Steve, I'll respond in here so as to not clutter up the discussion thread. A "wut" response is not an explanation. Sure you may have stated your thoughts somewhere else but that type of response is not what we are looking for and will get removed. We let the December thread slide at the end since many here are upset over the lack of snow in this month but we are nearing a new month and are really stepping up our moderation efforts and won't be hesitant to remove posts we feel are off topic, trolling, or just plain nonsense.wut? Its a question, like wut the fook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginx snewx Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 We are going to do our best to delete any post in that thread that doesn't include reasonable model analysis or a science/meteorology based post. This thread can be a free-for-all but that thread needs to be more science based. The last couple "analysis" threads have turned into absolute debacles. I have no problem handing out warnings for people who stray OT in those threads if we can't self-police it a lot better. I think people would be shocked if they saw the number of posts that mods delete or move. just remember that your self, you guys act like you are not as guilty at times.

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Some good looks at guidance it seems over past two days. Don't know if I'd call them trends but at first glance things are certainly in good shape. The meltdowns and bridge jumping should ease up a bit over the next two weeks....the plows will be out.

You, Kevin, and some others seem to take people's tweets and posts personally - like mets are out to say you're getting warmth and no snow at all times. It's a discussion thread - if people have model analysis or scientific thoughts on a pattern they can post them.
