Peer reviewed posts from mets and old timers about the Zeroth law of thermodynamics every time the NAM runs? You’re going to have redundancy and amateur hour when you have amateurs comment on something as complicated as wx. Mods do their best to cut the real crap (I should be a mod btw ). We fight the same battles every single time and we don’t even have a real solution to what grinds everyone’s gears. I don't know... It sometimes rubs me the wrong way... when a storm mode threat is started... and certain people ask to keep it clean, to only have the same people ask for IMBY forecasts.

T. August Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I’m not being sarcastic, I really hope psu-mappyland gets a solid storm. Their seasonal totals are too close to mine. That should never happen. I’m pulling for an 8-10” solid deal up there. hoping for 5.2” here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, I hope I top 3.6" in this event. May be a tall order, but that would bring me to double digits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, the whole "forecasting LWX advisory" things always baffles me. If you've spent any amount of time reading (and learning) from this sub, you can do really well with your yard and never even read a single thing from LWX. I'm not knocking LWX at all. They prepare for MILLIONS of people. But wrangling over warnings/advisories is just absolutely silly in my mind. With that being said, LWX does a damn good job like 90% of the time. And they should...they are all very experienced and highly educated. We're just a bunch of weenies. There's a big difference. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 My call for Leesburg is an inch of sleet followed by 3" of snow. We get stuck in some sore of subsidence hole. Still a fine storm all total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a fine storm all total The biggest thing I think is likely with this is the "hot and heavy" mega-precip never really shows up and it just sort of snizzles for a long, long time. There will be talk of RAP/HRRR showing a "possible band" and pivot that never really materializes. A lot of these storms that require copious precipitation to work out seem to bust.

RichmondTarHeel Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Just once I want to be surprised in a good way when it comes to accumulations. I see it all the time in other locations, like down in Norfolk or Richmond last storm. Just once I want to report in on Tuesday night with "We've already got 5", and they were only calling for a sloppy inch!". It's always the opposite.
