Blizzard of 93 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 The 18z Euro is starting to juice up for a little early Saturday morning snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Many of the overnight models still liked the idea of 1 to 2 inches of snow early Saturday morning for many of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 CTP included these thoughts this morning for the Friday night light snow chance. “Seems like most of the QPF Fri night into Sat will be later Fri night and early Sat. Have kept PoPs in the 70s for the time being as QPF looks light. Temps should be holding steady or rising a little through the night. So, while the precip may be snow at first, it should turn to rain for at least the srn half to 2/3rds of the area. Temps start out marginal/near freezing and SLRs run below 10:1. Accums may be an inch or so over a good portion of the area, but it may be mush by the time the sun rises on Sat.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Mid-Atlantic LR thread has turned sour now that the pattern has flipped abruptly - @losetoa6 you're always welcome to keep posting here in our thread. Besides, it'd be nice to have another big Orioles fan in here. Trust me, no one in here is going to get surly and tell you to stop talking about winter. We have a few "warminstas" but they're still nice people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean...it is a long range thread that isn't inclusive to winter; however, the long range thread is typically a monthly winter thread plus there is already a spring thread for discussing I don't know...spring?

Warmth? And there is no need to be hurtfully sarcastic in replies. Especially a mod. Like you said, the LR thread is for weather discussion of all kinds. The assertion of "reading the room" seems ridiculous to me and why I have been mocking its use. If someone wants to a comment about hoping snow melts soon, during an active winter storm, have it. As long as its not directed at other posters or meant to mock other posters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to read (I guess I could stop) some of the ongoing comments right now and not speak up. Just some downright ugly responses. I'll leave it at that. Snow tomorrow night would be the ultimate "stats-padder." Whatever we get will be long gone in a few hours on Saturday. I'll take anything we get. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know they're not directed at me, you guys love snow and want as much as possible. Truth is, while I do prefer warmth to cold, but I also enjoy tracking the storm threats. If they come when I'm off work, I don't mind them so much. As for the snow itself. My preference is to have a big storm (12"+) once a month from Nov/Dec to Feb/Mar, and then melt off in between the events. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anotherman Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 The worst, and I mean worst thing about the mid-Atlantic forum is the preferential treatment. There's a ton of double standards for how you can post, what you can post, and what is banter. If any of us post anything, it will be policed heavily. When the regulars post something, mods look the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not easy I'm sure, there's no glory in being a mod, no incentivized reason to be one...but for crying out loud, be nice and treat others fairly.

It's a sh$t show over there far too often for my liking. Don't get me wrong, there are some extremely knowledgeable posters and some great humor as well, but you're right in how wildly inconsistently the rules are applied and who is allowed to get away with what. That's why I just stay over here in this little central PA hamlet tehe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very strong case can be made for the boards being more interesting without mod's but a strong case can be made for the need for mod's as well. Someone who is a moderator needs to have an even keeled personality and thick skin. If you subscribe to the Internet Tough Guy magazine then moderating is probably not for you.

It's getting to be the time of year when we'll start needing things to align better, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
