I hate when places do this. There is an investment firm that is always like “clearly different money management” as their slogan. like what the hell do you differently? If I go with Merrill are they going to throw all my money into Enron? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has an extreme bias when it comes to snow cold. it feels like he always rubs salt in your eyes when a storm doesnt pan out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you stick around on here even when the other board is back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually watch WGAL or Fox43 if I tune in. It will be interesting to see how they score on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us, the modeling has been pretty consistent...almost scarily so! That should make their job easier. Still waiting for the rug to get rug pulled out but not gunna worry about it one way or the other. You haven't been a real disappointed snow weenie unless you lived south of Baltimore for 60+ years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Haven't seen it posted in this forum yet, so I question your weenie allegiance. Lol But giving you the benefit of the doubt, you do know that the GGEM has a 6z and 18z run, don't you? If you don't, the only place I've seen it offered is meteocentre.com. Today's 18z run is very good and similar to today's 12z. Unfortunately, meteocentre doesn't have pretty snowfall maps. It only tells you how much qpf in millimeters falls as snow (for inches, multiply mm x .4.) The closest view for PA they offer is the Quebec map. Anyway, I've attached the precip snowfall thru the end of the run, 84 hrs like the Rgem. Also, the surface map at 84 showing snow still falling in central and eastern parts of PA. Finally, a link for yourself to the Ggem. They have more models, but we can get those from other sources with more info. https://meteocentre.com/numerical-weather-prediction/forecast-systems.php?lang=en&map=qc&run=18&mod=cmc_gdps&mode=latest&yyyy=latest&mm=latest&dd=latest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 1 hour ago, KPITSnow said: You know, I think we could cool it on certain things but I reported a post by metfan of all people where he randomly showed up in the Pittsburgh thread trolling posting snow maps if nyc getting crushed and the storm basically missing us. if I went to the ny or mid Atlantic sub and did that I would be banned or five posted in a minute….just saying Metfan is harmless. I don’t think he was actually trolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said earlier today, it's so over amplified I don't put much stock in it. I could be wrong, but we have 66 hrs to fret about it...and I plan on using every hour! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
