When you see that there are a number of new posts in a thread and open you sorta expect that there's some legit analysis of panels already published. Not folks speculating what 6 panels further into the run are going to show. Panel published then comment. Not the opposite.

Ok, I see that.  But ... it is kinda fun to see if you can guess what's coming.  I try not to say much but I am guilty of the "here it comes" when occasionally h5 trends better.

I'll even take that over "It's north!"  "No, it's south!" "What frame am I on?" "Oops, wrong run!"

 How I feel tracking wave 2.  Please please let it be worth it.  Looking forward to 0z Euro tonight 

[nj2va]

Caps stopped the Bluejackets streak tonight.  And even better. Tortorella lost.

[mattie g]

You know it's a marginal event when [the same] folks stop by to show us snow from outside the region.

[H2O]

Huge bust potential with storm #2.  I'm putting all my eggs in one basket, counting chickens before they hatch, warming up the shovels that I will get the snow the 0z models showed last night.

 

if not, I will die/live

[H2O]

This whole scene is how i feel about winter.  I'm flounder(way better looking tho), and Bluto is the NAM, Otter is the RGEM, D-Day is the Srefs.  They sweet talk me into believing that they will save things and then they butcher my car(heart).

Bluto(NAM) has the best advice tho at the end and THAT I will follow tonight.

Anything on 00z EURO? My internet is broke

We just need to take a collection and buy hizenberg the Euro for 6 weeks.

Came into the office this morning with three meetings on my schedule:
• 9:30-10:30
• 11:00-11:30
• 2:00-2:30

I just got two updates to my calendar, so now I'm looking at:
• 11:00-11:30
• 2:30-3:30
• 4:30-5:00

Friday meetings are bad enough, but Friday afternoon...and until 5:00? F***'s sake...I come in at 7 and want to get out of here at a good time, especially on a Friday. 

Ugh...

JB is going for 3-6" for D.C.-NYC because of course he is.

This is hilarious to me for some reason.  Not his plight, just you noticing it (and me too).

I could have set my watch to it. You like the setup post earlier about flurries at work in Baltimore? Passive aggressive trolling under the guise of contributing is worse than the skins on MNF.

Me too. It's hard not to notice, and like Bob said, the request is like clockwork now. But I have to admit that I feel a little stalkerish calling him out on it.

I like him, to be honest. He's enthusiastic and knows his stuff, but the whole "my internet is down so I can only access some sites " thing is incredibly odd. That's not how it works. If it's down, it's down! Just say you didn't want to re-up for model access and that any info folks can provide would be helpful. No one would think less of you.

Beg to differ.  There is nothing worse.

I love Hizenberg, but yeah, this latest thing does seem really, really odd.  Like, how are you on the internet now asking for model input because you have no internet?

I'm seriously considering a road trip after work today.  I think I need some sea air.

Do it. Went there for the storm in 2010/2011 and was an amazing g experience. Snowstorm at the beach is nuts. Be careful. They literally have 2 plows on the whole island lol. Could see 5-7" easy on Coastal Hwy. 

[WxUSAF]

This has a Boxing Day 2010 feel with Norfolk and Boston getting smacked while we hope for light accumulations. Let's get that euro to make another jump.

[snowfan]

Does anyone know if NPS keeps Assateague open during snow? Considering going tomorrow........

 

Snow + Waves + Ponies on the beach = sign me up.

If we get any!

Seriously though...I'd love to get some flakes in the air tomorrow. Having our daughter's fourth birthday party around lunchtime, so it'd be fun to have some flakes flying while the kids are destroying our house. Good thing is that I'll probably be sipping a barrel-aged imperial stout either way!

[feloniousq]

I see we've reached the "hug the CRAS" portion of the program.  That always ends in success.

[birdsofprey02]

A few weeks ago when we had some ice around the region... I had to explain to people how sleet vs. freezing rain vs. snow works.          Every time I do that, I always get someone that asks... "How come it sleets sometimes here in the summer?"    uhhhg
