Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 If the models continue looking good for us, maybe Wes can give us some more good haiku...or perhaps a limerick (dirty model limericks of course!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I for one love the Brontostormus photoshop, right thread or no I think we should suggest that name to TWC for this event. (ETA: Wait, didn't they change Brontosaurus to the Apatosaurus not long ago? So we should have the Apatostormus. Or perhaps the related Diplodostormus.)

Kay Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 LOL there are way too many threads as it is. I could see having an ongoing "off topic" thread and a monthly weather banter thread but thats it. That was the joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I guess the storm is a done deal if we already have a banter thread for it. It's almost like we didn't have a modeled simple storm a week ago that ripped our hearts out inside 72hrs. Not a done deal yet, just a way to release tension.

Kay Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 As long as it's good quality and portion size then it's worth it and I don't mind paying top dollar. I'm going to Tio Pepe's this Saturday for my birthday. Haven't been there in a couple years but I'm sure it's still one of the best in Baltimore. I had dinner there in Dec. It had been a while. Still old school, great food, always a fun experience. Enjoy your bday. Obligatory storm banter: seems like it's going to snow a lot or something. Schools will close.

Ian Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 My dad saw one forecaster on TV mention 6-12"It's like NYC didn't just happen. It's a good looking setup and harder than usual to fail but running high early is tricky. Think in most cases you're better off saying it's likely to at least top lower numbers from this range. If nothing else then you don't have to chase a forecast if it starts to go badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Mike Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I've got a dilemma. I'm flying to Vegas from IAD (Dulles) Monday at 9AM. If the storm dumps a foot of snow at IAD during the overnight, I assume the flight will be cancelled. That's life, but I've got room reservations at Vdara and can cancel without a penalty by 7PM Friday (tomorrow). I really feel this storm will develop. The met on CBS Evening News even showed a track that would give the MA a foot. Topper is hinting that the Bread-o-Meter will be in effect. And most important, Matt is setting up timelines, Randy is getting the bus gassed up, and the CWG is 40% in favor of substantial snow. Question: do you think there can be enough certainty in the forecast by 7PM tomorrow for me to decide to cancel the hotel reservations, and re-book if the storm fizzles (I doubt I can get anything close to the same rate).
