I mean there actually can be a little conflict of interest if I join the contest as an alum. I can make a climate site's precip whatever I want if I can give enough reason for changing the ASOS value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember one forecast up in the Rockies somewhere for WAA snow. Downtown webcams showed 3-4" of wet/slushy stuff but ASOS said T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have the stats to pull up but I remember it being quite snowy and cold back then. We lived in Richmond in 2007 and the valentines day storm has been unrivaled since for epic snowfall. We would move back in a heartbeat if only the jobs paid more up there... Actually, January 3, 2010 broke the snowfall record at BTV and had significantly more snow than the V-Day 2007 storm. I think Burlington had 35" in the 1/3/10 ocean low, as compared to about 2 feet in the 2/14/07 blizzard. For the high elevation areas such as the Adirondacks and Northern Greens, 2/14/07 is still king. Parts of the Adirondacks had over 40" with that storm. Also, it has to be said that conditions were much more severe during 2/14/07 than 1/3/10...the latter event was basically powder with temps in the 20s and light winds that took a day to clear...V-Day was a full-on blizzard with 30-40mph winds, heavy wet snow mixing with sleet, and temperatures dropping as low as 10F. The 2007 event was definitely more dangerous and more high impact even if snowfall amounts were slightly less. Also 1/3/10 only affected the Champlain Valley as it was a mesoscale phenomenon due to convergence on north winds...2/14/07 was a large synoptic event that had an impact from NYC to Maine.

It was 28.3 last hour, so it's possible they squeaked in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have went 85 instead of 87.

I remember winning a trophy once when temperature dropped 5 degrees right before 06 UTC because of a slight clearing in clouds on a cold, calm winter night in North Dakota. I jumped around my room like a crazy man and woke up my suitemate. Very similar thing happened to me forecasting for Butte, MT haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, not a drop of rain to break it. Again. If I hear any talk of summer convection...I'll choke them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
