AirNelson39 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It'll get back up tomorrow! NW Flow. Screw NWF, those suck. This will go down as an epic bust in NW mtns and foothills. Amazing how models could get things remotely close back in 93 but they can't hit the broad side of a barn in 2016.

WxBlue Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Boone usually scores more often than rest of us, though. I'm just glad we're leading the pack for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Two generations ago, they landed on the moon with the use of slide rules and graph paper. Landed on the freakin' moon. We need to call all those guys back (the ones still living) and have them work on weather prediction modeling. I'm pretty sure they couldn't be any worse than we are now.

We need to call all those guys back (the ones still living) and have them work on weather prediction modeling. I'm pretty sure they couldn't be any worse than we are now. You could probably have a really good model, but it'd take a really long time to run, longer than the lead time. That's the problem we have to solve. We don't just have to land on the moon, we have to do it daily and quickly enough to be useful. That's quite different. Also, landing on the moon you have to get one ship, with humans on board, to the right place. With weather prediction, you have to get the whole atmosphere, with no human intervention, somewhere. A bit more difficult I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you might not have picked up on my use of hyperbole, but I still say that we should just call those old white guys in short-sleeve dress shirts with pocket protectors and see what they can do.

Brick Tamland Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 This sleet is great for sledding. My street is on a little slope and it was fast going down it with the sled. The kids had a blast. Also sounds like this morning was just the opening act. The big show is still to come with three low forming off the coast. It ain't over yet.

Spidyr2k Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 My biggest gripe so far are those ignorant news writers with articles titled "Blizzard Cripples Eastern US", etc. The media will publish anything that sells.

cmh90 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 The temperature seems to be a few degrees below forecast but its still going to be a few degrees too warm for any type of wintery precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could see this storm "sucking" for people who expected too much. This was never going to be a big snow event south of NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was never going to be a big snow event south of NC.Was supposed to be alot of zr/sleet south of 85, starting last night early morning. I just went to sleet at noon! I wasn't expecting snow, but alot of ice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwlee7 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Because it means it will now blow up and slam the MA and NE, his sole regional concerns Thanks for the reply. So he was basically saying this intensification only benefits folks further north and therefore, I will continue to see weather that even my dogs won't go out in.

Hugo Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Some places around NE SC and SE NC are still below freezing and seeing decent precip. So some who were expecting a brief period of ZR are closing in on a quarter inch. And schools are open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
