Monitoring some form of significant ( to be determined more precisely) impact winter storm, Jan 16/17th. Moderate seems to be the upper limit - for now

should be a 'scorched earth' policy in effect when people can't control themselves.   hard to believe these are 30 40 50 ... 70 year-olds we're talking about but oh well.

I dunno.  some of you just need to shut the fuck up and leave

i suspect that some people get all their dopamine from favorable model runs, and when they don’t happen and they don’t get their rush, they collapse in on themselves like a dying star

i hope i don’t do the same. i like to highlight potential, but maybe i should be more reserved. i know that the mets and we’ll adjusted hobbyists can compartmentalize potential from possible reality, but some can’t 

anyway, seems like we may be in the process of increased trough consolidation. many may be looking at a solid light event

UPDATE ON  JAN 16-17   -  No snowstorm for the  Middle Atlantic  and New England.  Big swing and a Miss. Not happening

Better chance of the Eagles getting to the  super Bowl

He may be subjectively right - if that makes any sense ...

If we lay in 3-5" ( say), that's not really a snow "storm".   But the other aspect is that it may be up the coast from the mid Atlantic latitudes, either way.. so, partially correct there, too.

It would be nice to get this thing more inflow and not a linear type band, but then again too much and it’s into PVD. Hopefully a few inches for many.

Completely agree with bolded...  While I'm not a big poster, I do enjoy reading many of the treads, but the BS has gotten just so overwhelming!!!  Some very sad lifestyles out there
