H2O Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 So the O's best closer wasn't used and they lose. Damn. Its like using the CRAS to make a forecast when you have the Euro sitting there. I totally understand the rage the O's fans have this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasnow215 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 The Canadian, GFS, and European models three totally different scenarios for the 0z models. Has to be frustrating for weather forecasters. And can't argue with people who say weather models have some real issue still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a ground-ball pitcher and could have induced a double play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 @WEATHERBUFF Your reasoning is essentially - if you haven't heard of a meteorologist they should carry less weight than others? Yes, Glen Schwartz is a great POV. But just because he's on TV does not make him the authority on meteorology/forecasting. I'm not sure why we are having this argument... Using your reasoning - because you haven't heard of the countless meteorologists working at NWS offices they must not have as much skill as a famous TV met? Broadcast mets are the face of meteorology - that doesn't automatically give them a higher skill level than the behind the scenes folks or people who you haven't heard of. Just making sure you understand that fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
