I hardly ever posted but I lived in fear of the purple weenie tag. I remember one time I summoned the courage to post, no doubt something dumb, and a few posts later someone started railing about terrible posts and "read more, post less" and I was mortified. Even though it may not have been me. Newbs these days have it relatively easy ('get off my lawn', etc) I was much the same. Unfortunately, one of the few times I had the nerve to post, I made some lame joke to/about stormtracker and he five-posted me. I remember it like it was yesterday - sitting at my kitchen table as runs were coming in prior to (I think) the February 2010 period and feeling so giddy that I just went for it...and BAM! Five-posted. I think it was at least a year before my post limit was lifted. That's just one reason why I cringe now when some of the new folks make jokes that just seem completely out of place. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Seriously, everyone busy talking about which model is king, it is whichever steadfastly doesn't show snow for us the longest. In this case, that would Ukie that is king this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grothar of Herndon Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 We need a snow storm like the one in a small area of Kansas and Colorado yesterday. 2" per hour for 9 hours. Over 2' of snow. They were predicting just a few inches. I know it will never happen here, but one can dream! LOL! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in SNE gloating over a sweet coastal and trolling those to the south caused more banter than our worst thread now. Zwyts(Matt) would troll the hell out of them if they busted. but he was right because the weather they get is so different from ours at times so why should we read 1000 posts from CT Blizz when we have our own area to see how a storm goes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Whelp...on to the overrunning event early next month!! Right?! Right?! I have to say, looking at the NAM output from yesterday's 18Z vs. today's is like bizarro world. It's almost funny, the contrast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember that, when it went to separate regions. Some people liked it, others didn't care for it at least initially. I think partly because there are good posters that people liked to hear from each region, even if they were looking for different things. But it did get difficult following events for your particular area, when you heard various interpretations. And yeah, nobody around here cares to read all about Boston getting hammered by a blizzard when there's nothing in this area. In the end, I think the regionalized format is much better and prefer it to the previous almost free-for-all discussions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
