North Country of NY State up into Quebec were demoralized from 2-6" of freezing rain accretion. Trees in northern NY state are still bent over in spots to this day and will forever be that way from the weight of the ice. At the height of the storm, freezing rain fell into air as cold as 14 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if it rained on me with an air temp of 14 F, my head would explode. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 9 hours ago, MillvilleWx said: So, looking at the GEFS, I pray that the signal it is showing doesn't actually come true. Good lord. It's got the look though for a legit ice storm out this way. PV rotating down north of the Lakes with strong surface ridge nosing down the lee of the Apps with the height rises. Add a piece off the Pac to cut underneath. That's an ice storm lovers dream. Dang man The more I look at it, the more impressed I am. Heck, @Eskimo Joe would approve of this run. Wow. And that look at H5 is CLASSIC for a southern plains Ice storm. Stop looking at the Good For Shit model and its ensembles. It's not happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 LOL more long range busts. It's amazing how confident and self-assured some people get with these forecasts when they are basically guessing. Some folks need to learn to hedge a bit more.

I totally agree, minute details in weather do matter, that is what makes this hobby so enjoyable. Next, I need snow, a lot of it please. I want to dust off the snowshoes. His ideas wrt the IOD and the effects of the standing wave in the Indian Ocean are interesting and may have merit. If his call busts it could be for a completely different reason because no one factor has autonomy over the pattern. But that’s why you don’t spend a week insulting everyone else and insisting they are dead wrong. Then you look like a clown when things don’t go your way. And they will eventually not go your way in this game. In fairness so I’m not a hypocrite I learned that lesson the hard way, and probably a time or two more than I should have.

Very true, he knows his stuff, but that does not give one the excuse to act like an ass to others . Being humble has advantages. Eating crow is on his menu today.

MillvilleWx Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Stop looking at the Good For Shit model and its ensembles. It's not happening.I wasn’t saying it was... I was saying the look verbatim is how you get ice storms down here. It was a crazy run. And as a meteorologist, you never throw away an ensemble run and run with one model. That’s dangerous. Closer in, then we can start giving weight. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
