That would be pretty decent accomplishment if it goes off like that... More often than not the globals pick up on big storms at about 200 hours.

PDIII Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I remember March 93... Five days out.. the weather channel guys were floored by how well the computer models were in agreement that there was going to be an historic event. I think the bigger the event, the more likely we see it earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Gotta say it's always best to stay cautious this far out even if the model is calling for oh...70 degrees but this sure has that feel of a good one.The chase is just as fun as the storm itself...no doubt we will see some ups and downs next week but I'm hopeful this thing starts locking in or simply disappears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming it’s a plane capable of landing on a carrier... We would say No because it’s more likely the Russian plane would crash into the carrier than land safely. It’s really not a tough question to answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and considering that the mods don't have day jobs and the only thing they do all day is monitor this board, not to mention how much they are paid, it's pretty bad.

That definitely led to less anxiety on the boards which was great . I feel like there was one set of runs, maybe ~4 days out that still had the storm, but pushed it SEward and dropped our totals from the 18-24" that were being spit out to like 8-12". It came right back in the following run, but there was some angst. I remember dreaming about the storm busting each night that week :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
