Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Just now, Rhino16 said: Just curious, as someone who wants to learn... Where did everyone get all of their knowledge from? I assume just a long time of exposure to it allows you to learn, and not skipping an opportunity to learn something new helps? Is there anything that would help immediately to learn a bit more other than listen? Well, I got my degree (undergrad and grad) in meteorology, though not a forecaster per se. That's where a lot of my background synoptic and other related knowledge comes from. But beyond that, just reading in here (and other places), you learn the tendencies of how things work in this area. There are a lot of good posters on here, even if you have to filter out some of the BS posts. Pretty much any of the local "red tagger" mets in here have a plethora of great information and insight. But even those who are not technically "red tags", like @psuhoffman, @showmethesnow, @Bob Chill among others are great (though showme and Bob haven't been around here in some time, unfortunately). Really just reading a lot in this forum (and living here long enough) in a lot of ways helps. I learned an immense amount just by doing that, honestly. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would try and follow along looking at models when they come out as others describe what’s good and bad. You pick up the lexicon quickly and over time you know what to look for on models. Ask questions during downtime between runs and you’ll get answers. Google when you need too. But just reading and absorbing helps a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthArlington101 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Hmmm... think I might need to try and find a way to stay in Arlington for this one. Not sure I can risk missing out on a +48hr event by traveling down to Cville. Sorry to the Arlington folks I may be jinxing and congrats to the Cville folks who are now the jackpot zone.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Euro numbers from 2 days ago pop up. Yeah. This. It feels like this is a powderkeg about to be lit for a good chunk of the area, and that the models are about to start spitting out some crazy solutions now that we are close in. Not saying that's what we will get, but that it is about to show some crazy stuff. Full agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
