Lava Rock Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 All good things must come to an end. Hopefully it's not an abrupt end. Would really suck since all the snow we've got is mostly fluff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radarman Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 GGEM takes an arctic s/w dropping into N Dakota early Friday and phases it back into the S stream low in the TX panhandle. GFS keeps those pretty separate... moves the clipper ENE which helps with confluence to our N and a weaker system ejecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonWX Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Claiming no more nor'easters after last week is plain stupid. Look at the pattern still coming up. Gimme a break. Not to mention the 1-2' coastal Maine will get...oh but I bet he saw that coming too and knew. Yeah he gambled and he won. I'm just saying that he's likely going to be correct in the eyes of viewers... And that's all that really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Doubtful. It's an outlier right now compared to the GFS/Euro and it's made a wild swing from a huge snowstorm to a driving rainstorm now in one days runs. I would toss it. I agree. Terrible continuity. Now, if the EURO bites on that, as well....then it becomes food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonWX Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Won on what? He never gave a time table. I'd say if next week doesn't come together he won the climo gamble. I'm assuming pipeline means 1-2 weeks. It's all just semantics, I didn't mean much by my comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all just semantics, I didn't mean much by my comment It's not climo, it's dumb. March is known for nor'easters..nevermind mid Feb. Just another insane comment from him. Like his black ice for the Dec 2008 icestorm. He's lucky he wasn't fired for that one. Or my 18" of washed away in March 2013. It looks active going forward one way or another.

40/70 Benchmark Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 He was right, there wasn't another nor easter in the pipeline. I don't think that implies through March. Unless of course this trends well south and redevelops lol This is kind of what I was saying yesterday. We are out of the rapid fire snow blitz. There was come disparity amongst perceptions of what exactly he said/meant, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Miser Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 All good things must come to an end. Hopefully it's not an abrupt end. Would really suck since all the snow we've got is mostly fluff. Nobody wants a quick end, except that Jeb guy in the mid-atlantic. I really don't want to see it end, but I have to be ready for it. I would love to see us end on a March 1993 superstorm note, except all snow for everyone, including no taint in the R.I. areas that accompanied that one. Then, over the next few weeks, slow melt, and a few quick spots of snow through mid April. I have come to terms with the end being close...retreating in solitude to my place in the forest. My mind and soul are ready. Now it is time to prepare my body for the journey home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it really matter how it snows? Public won't know or care if its a noreaster/swfe/norlun, snow is snow at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People hear no more nor'eaatwrs and think no snow. It doesn't take a Paul Kocin to say we are probably done getting a 2' storm every week. Duh. But saying no nor'easters in my mind just isn't responsible. He just always does this stuff. It bothers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestHillWx Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Without being dubbed too much of a snow weenie in the NYC forum, if that pig of a high pressure coming down west of the lakes is as strong as forecast (GFS model), wouldn't that prevent a wound-up cutter and force the storm east? I know the WAR is modeled stronger than the last few systems, so this probably coming up the front side of the Apps, but just curious. Being in North Jersey I am hopeful for you guys to set records for the winter season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I know you guys are worried about snow pack, but a wound up storm would be a disaster for anyone with a flat roof or a roof not cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
