I would occasionally post. I can remember some totally opposite of you guys. I think one was Collin if I’m not mistaken, he was a gem! Lol Yeah there were a few that really rained on the snow parade. Always made me wonder whey they even came here? I hate heat and humidity, so coming here in the middle of it is just a kick in the jax for me (no offense to the warmies). I check in to let ya'll know I'm chillin, but it aint my gig, so let those who love it, have it. It is a weather forum, not just a snow forum, so I guess its fair to poo poo, but when folks just say i hate this or I hate that, and add little to the discussion on a weather board, and do it OVER AND OVER.....AND OVER....your gonna get trolled. Warmies seem to foget how BIG their window is....and how small ours is. Thats my biggest gripe. I will say that last couple of years, I was glad for our horrid winter to be over as i wasted much of my life searchin for snow, with little ROI. This year I will miss it more as we did actually have a dog in the hunt on multiple occasions, and a decent amount of chatter regarding it....no matter the result. That sure is a fun part of this hobby for me. I learned a little more, and had fun along the way. Good stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spent more time in the MA forum then ours but came in on occasion @sauss06 Eskimo Joe. He now stays in the MA forum......and gets trolled pretty hard there. If you strive at being a good met/hobbyist, you cant let your bias show through like he does. Really takes away from credibility, and in this sport, credibility is really something that is hard to obtain. Just look at the MA (and other forums)as to how there is a meteo pecking order of sorts. Im not here to be "the guy". I'm just here to have fun n share what I know, and learn along the way. Edit. Just read the multiple post suggesting Joe and finding it wasn’t him. Lol.

He was very good, meaning, he would post it as it was without sugar coating it and some of the weenies would take him to the shed. Between Ian and Matt (zwyts, westminster deathband, deck pic) that sub had 2 of the very best non-met posters around. Ian hardly if ever posts and Deck Pic only posts when snow is imminent. The lawyer dude mitchnik in the MA forum left last year, and Bob Chill may be on the ropes from this year. It is tough looking at everything every 6 hours for days on end "in search of" and it really does wear on ones soul. I was really really burnt last season....and while better this year, its still been a tough one for my area as we were close on many, but really missed the good ones. I did get enough to head into hibernation in a little better shape this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Good stuff in here today from everyone. It was a good trip down Memory lane. The 12z Euro has a Clipper for CTP on Monday. I would take another 1 or 2 inches of snow. The current timing of this little storm looks good as well. Hopefully the long shot coastal chance for later next week improves the over the next few days.

CarlislePaWx Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Hi guys. Sorry I'm late to the reminiscing party! I won't try to add very much since a lot has already been said. I joined EUSWX on December 5, 2005. I certainly remember Colin as being a very negative ned. Nothing positive could ever come out of his mouth. I actually think I remember him saying one day that he could ride his bicycle off a cliff and no one would care. So he was either looking for attention or had some serious psychological issues. Marcus was either the original founder of Eastern or he was the co-founder with Randy. It pretty much seemed like the two of them ran the show on the board. I do think that Marcus was the principle IT guy when it came to the server stuff and keeping the board online. Some of you might remember the poster winterymix who lived in Maryland. He was an Optometrist like myself and we communicated with each other periodically. Since I virtually never go into the MA forum I don't know if he is still active there or not anymore. Regarding I83Blizzard...yes I always questioned how he managed to be the winner in so many events, BUT, he almost always posted pictures from his deck with rulers showing the snow depth. I think his location on South Mountain and his elevation put him in a very unique position to capitalize on marginal events. You certainly couldn't question his upbeat nature. I guess it's easy to be upbeat when you're seemingly the top guy on the accumulation list so often. Eskimo Joe was sort of like a "mini-Colin". He did have valuable info to contribute at times but he also seemed to be very negative at others. I'm sure if I kept thinking I could come up with others, but I won't bore you. I would just like to say how grateful I am to be a part of what I believe is one of the best subforums, if not the best subforum on this board. There is nothing like civility and maturity to help guide you through the maze of emotions that we all experience on here. I think we do a really great job at it. I also want to say that I wish @Itstrainingtime would not have vanished for that period of time back in January, regardless of what you had said. (I never read your post before you deleted it so I don't know what it was you did say.) I think you're a fantastic contributor, and an active one as well. That activity helps to generate more activity, etc. I for one missed you during your exile and was very happy when you returned. So, that's it from me. If there's no more snow to be had then it's been a pretty great season despite the ups and downs. But they come with almost every season. I'm happy those of us in the general MDT area reached the 40" threshold for the season. That was cool. And, even if we don't score a big one this month, remember, we had a big one back in November that shouldn't have happened. So, the surprise came at the beginning and not the end. Thanks for the memories. Oh, PS, I hope we do try to do a meet and greet this year. Don't we finally deserve to see the mugs hidden behind the screens?? We can make it happen if we collectively want it badly enough. And, it doesn't have to be right now. It could be in the summertime when most of us are depressed over the heat and humidity and need a pick-me-up. Count me in! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 The EPS & Euro Control run just need to correct a few hundred miles to the west for our coastal storm next week. We have 8 days to go until the potential storm, so rough math says that a 25 to 50 mile per day shift west should bring this one home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Look at what the 0z Euro delivered! Still some work to go for us, but 8 days to go. Please see the fantastic post this morning in the Mid Atlantic forum from @showmethesnow that provides great analysis of this Euro run. I’m not sure why the maps are out of order, but you get the idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted March 13, 2019 Author Share Posted March 13, 2019 @CarlislePaWx Thank you very much for your kind words. I'm also grateful to be back. I was kind of in a bad place personally a couple of months ago and it was negatively impacting my posting. Rather than bring what is THE best sub to a lower standard I proactively decided it was best for me to step aside for a while. Many reached out and expressed concern and for that I say thank you to all. @Blizzard of 93 Nice to see you're doing your best to keep next week alive. Still not sure if there's sound meteorological reasoning to score, but I swear if anyone on this board can will this thing into us it is you... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a shame the timing is just a bit off, as that would potentially be a really nice end to winter for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a shame the timing is just a bit off, as that would potentially be a really nice end to winter for us. Didn't even think to look at the FV3 this morning. Nice to see it has a very similar look at 500's leading into the possible coastal even though it evolves somewhat differently afterwards. Lends credence to the Euro's solution. Not to mention looking over the last few runs of the original GFS/GEFS I think it may be starting to see/move towards the same look as well. Even though the EPS snowfall maps were virtually nonexistent vs prior runs I think that is very misleading. We have actually seen a very good improvement the last 48 hours at 500's that has strongly moved towards the Euro's op run look leading into the storm. But... 8 days away so lets see where the models take us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
