snowfan Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I'm not above whining, but there are certain threads to do it and it shouldn't be hard to at least keep the storm disco threads on topic. And I stand by what I said about the new threat thread, it was way too early to have its own thread and I'm glad stormtracker locked it. well, now your long range thread is being filled with whining that could've been contained by that thread.....

Fozz Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 well, now your long range thread is being filled with whining that could've been contained by that thread..... Except all discussion of that storm would've also been in that thread. I don't know why it's too much to ask for complaints/whining/meltdowns to be kept in the Panic thread.

Lowershoresadness Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 this is the problem of not getting an area wide storm in Dec or Jan. in people's mind we are on the clock. as Feb days get wasted with no snow people's anxiety heighten. people put extra value in each model run that may or may not be correct. the clock is ticking....tic......toc.....tic......toc............

RevWarReenactor Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I am as down on snow chances as anyone, but this thing is 5 days away and looks like a really unusual and potentially fun system to track. Not sure why people so pissed it isn't showing feet of snow from run to run. That's not gonna happen. Because we've been burned by the models with 33 degree rainstorms like 4 times now?

It's not an issue of keeping the longer range thread "sterile". It's a matter of keeping the "oh-noz!" comments to a minimum in what's supposed to be a model and pattern discussion, without it getting totally derailed.

Model and pattern discussion..............L the ef O L. How do you discuss models outside of 3 days? They are night and day from one run to the next. Patterns? Hey, that's modeled too. People might as well lighten up about their model discussions. It might be fun to hypothesize, but we are discussing a fiction novel. Everybody is just trying to make up their own ending. Now I will go along with the bitching. That brings everyone down. But a little humor? C'mon on guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clueless Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 It's still something to look at even if it's cold rain. This is what the forum is for - to discuss weather. If we still have a shot at 72 then someone should start a thread. (and 12 hours later we may have crap, but that us besides the point). How can anyone dare to call out a seasoned pro for some sound analysis? If you don't want to read it, then don't. And if some stuff that seems like banter gets into the discussion thread, who cares? They are the ones making substantive contributions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchnick Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Maybe I just need a snickers. I'm with ya' 100%. I guess we've been doing it too long. It's enjoyable to follow storms because eventually one hits....except in certain winters. And this is one of those winters. Like I said in another thread, this year is reminding me very much of 76/77 in that it was cold and relatively snowless. The models are doing the same dance with every system 4+ days out and eventually settle on the reality that everything goes to our north. It won't change no matter how many eloquent reasons people may give. So, what's not to get pissed off about at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
