Scarlet Pimpernel Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 38 minutes ago, mappy said: Also, can someone explain to me the “we take” phrase? Where exactly are we taking a digital model output? Never much cared for that phrase myself. But I believe it's used for situations where things aren't necessarily the greatest look, but given alternatives or trends that haven't looked great, we'd "take it" as is modeled (if it worked out that way) before it gets worse. Something like that. I guess it's sort of analogous to the "La-la-la-lock it up!" phrase when a storm is modeled as a HECS. I see your point, on the one hand it's modeled digital snow, not like we have control over it in advance and not like we can "choose" anything. On the other hand, it's just a hope or wish that that solution works out. That's probably more explanation than you cared for, but that's how I interpret it!

The big storm setup seems to be fading. I'm like you though. I just like snow. Any event this week will be satisfying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Just need to cash in 3-4 inches. That's all and my Dec is satisfied. A 6 inch month would work in my book. Some ice on top would be the bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see snow this week, and I am off work so I will travel if it looks like our area ends up in the jip zone. Canaan is a safe bet, and even the DE beaches if the southern piece manages to scrape the MA coast and miss here. Rehoboth was a super fun chase for last January's snowstorm.

I came back early from Christmas trip with my family in tow to beat the storm. Oops. i want “fire hose of moisture” to return to the modeling today as opposed to “ that’s a lot of moving pieces dominated by northern stream”...

I love all snow small events count in my book. I know we have a bunch of homerun hitters only on here...cough cough ji cough cough but I won't lie when these things start to fall apart it still is disappointing. Those kooky models love to f with us. Ensembles only as accurate as the next run imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymengineer Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 A perk of being in CA these few days is that by the time I get around to checking the thread, the model suite— and its resulting emotional ups and downs— is already done running. Just a quick glance back instead of “experiencing” each run itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been drinking some great brews this evening courtesy of Barley and Hops in Frederick. Uber Pils and Double IPA for the win...probably slurred that a bit. Anyway, I actually have a vertical of BCS waiting for a special snowy night. Bottles from 2009-2015 (will need some help to get thru them all). Sadly though, no 2011. Think before an epic Jebwalk during the last blizzard, I might have “accidentally” in all my excitement decided it was a great idea to drink that one. Yeah. I’m still mad that I broke the chain. Ah well. It’s just liquid...that helps make the world a better place some days. Cheers! That’s a money vertical, even if it’s got a small gap in there.
