powderfreak Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 You have to feel for all local meteorologists and the profession as a whole. This is the stuff that we all know couldn’t be seen happening, and the public will have zero mercy. The consistency was so stable for several days. You have to message that “modeled storm” the past few days to the public. But then if it snows 0-6”, after widespread 8-12”+ forecast with 1-2”/hr snows… it’s going be cause a whole other wave of “forecasters are a joke.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve thrown tantrums in my youth when they’ve happened but nowadays I just get high and laugh. With the way this is going, just get it the fuck out of here. My daffodils are 3 inches tall and my crocuses are in bloom. Bring on spring. This reminds me a little of that March '18 storm that was supposed to dump on southern CT, but wound up with a sandy inch while Long Island cleaned up 2 feet.

Sey-Mour Snow Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Parts of CT and Mass were well within the 12-18" cone at 18 hours out to potentially see zero inches of snow. @ORH_wxman how many times has that happened this close in? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something wrong with the model last couple years. The historical data and patterns that they have in their databases must’ve lost validity. Some thing has changed and the analogs don’t do nearly as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting the posters who genuinely get enjoyment when the contrarian outcome occurs. The opposite of what the masses desire. Rain or whiff is all the same to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These early calls are the function of parents demanding earlier and earlier decisions going back about 5 to 10 years ago... I've been apart of this trend for years and it was only a matter of time before it happened. Nobody wanted to wait until daybreak even though there were red flags this afternoon. I'm surprised a situation like this hasn't occurred sooner. But I am a bit shocked by how ugly this snow trend has gotten. I never understood the need to cancel the afternoon or evening before, but parents are adamant... I think districts should be able to alert folks to the ongoing trend and reasses in the morning. They all use the same alerting system... And it is still early enough in the evening... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones who know their day will be strapped due to childcare now? Who will be the first school in history to try reversing an early decision? At some point it’ll happen. Text and call alerts. It could be done. If some kids still stay home, who cares, but you get the day in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
