I don't buy the nw trend to shut out se MA. There will be a se trickle messanger style. (rip) Point is.... Harvey posted otherwise. So did Fisher. That's enough for me.

Was that the firehose storm? He refused to even entertain the idea, IIRC. The rates were insane with that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He refused to entertain the idea, said the airmass wasn’t nearly good enough for a big storm. The rates were insane with that thing. That's the one. That storm also featured the worst static subsidence I've ever seen in Rhode Island. Some spots got almost nothing while a few miles away they were measuring in feet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Miser Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Too much north is going to send too much mix my way. Getting nervous about that b.s. People here have seen my rants on mixing, so I would rather not display such vulgar-ness, and self destructive behavior. Are we looking at wind issues? If so, where? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He grew up in the Bronx and we used to discuss the same storm we grew up enjoying. He doesn't need to get up early-works late which would have been great for me. He loves this too much! No many of us can get the job we've wanted since we were young kids and carry it over for a lifetime. Harvey is maybe 1-2 years younger than me. I remember being here (traveling from LA) about a month after the blizzard of 78. My weenie friend, also in the same profession and I called him at the station. The funny thing is he was early career then and was jealous of us having a sure bet career. Great guy, incredible met-really respect the guy a lot. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonard is credited as the first meteorologist to correctly predict the impact and intensity of the Blizzard of 1978. He saw the potential 4 days before the event, and didn't have the advantage of the models we have today. When he went in early to the station ahead of the storm, he told his wife she probably wouldn't see him for some time. He was right. He was stuck at the station for the week. Great met. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was his first coup...he’d only been on the job less than a year and then he was the boldest for the ‘78 blizzard forecast....he was right and then the rest is history. I hardly ever missed a forecast from him in the winter when I was in elementary school in the late 1980s and early 1990s. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
