i didn't make that up just out of fun - i was studying the material after viewing the documentary, 'the social dilemma,'  several years ago. the show was produced by early google and facebook engineers that left those positions 'for moral' reasons because they knew that what they were doing was a kind of a social engineering.   the whole industry really stumbled on to the following:

blue light/psychotropic addiction, and the needle is doom scrolling...  

then later on, 60 minutes did a whole segment expose' on the phenomenon of it.   they interviewed these people that said in first person how they worked on algorithms that tailor to a person's scrolling tendencies, with ever more gas lighting and other manipulative psycho babble tactical shit - the motive for doing so, enter here [         ]    doesn't need to be listed. 

so,... why it matters in here is because ... the medium is in fact blue lighting and doom scrolling for that model cinema effect.  some of us have joked in the past that seems a lot of users are even less interested in the storm, as much as they seek the guidance that illsutrates it ahead of time?  that phenomenon is likely real, and ... it exposes this.  

people are prone to transfixing in here just like any of these other virtual presentations of reality - just like on any other of those medias.  

op ed/digression: it's a small part of my general posit that humanity is in fact moving through an evolutionary experiment, where technology has become a proxy in how we survive and/or fail this.  - it's a vast science.  global birthing rates are crashing to (supposedly) dangerously low levels..   - that's an interesting adjective, when population is too large anyway.  from that, to the proliferation and really shocking increase in occurrences of mass violence by single individuals, and (possibly more importantly ...) those that have found one another on the web and are thus empowered loons for finding others like them.  these are all being emergent modalities that are quite well timed with the ambit of tech changes that has gripped all societies outside the jungles since roughly the mid or late 1970s ...when television because ubiquitous, and varied, enough to pull one's motivation away from the community - that was really the most primitive beginnings of an internet.  

   

If I'm interpreting this right, does this mean 6"+ of snow for NEMA and SENH?

Appreciable precip is in South Jersey on the gfs and cmc. Anything north of that is light stuff or nothing.

 

this needs a miracle, just like every other threat in the past 3 years 

And were batting .000 on getting something to work out.

This is another banter thread now that Jan appears snowless for the next coupla weeks.  Cuts the boredom I guess.

Let’s see how the Euro looks going forward.

The thread title is fitting because all you can do is laugh at how many different ways to get screwed in a good pattern.

Common trait that still hasnt been corrected I see.  But then again maybe it’s right.   Does it have the Texas terror that the GFS has?

And Not even a nice pooper at that.

How ironic…it’s finding every way to fail…  truly the 80’s all over again.  That decade was notorious for finding every way not to snow.  And it’s back again.  I knew we’d see it again at some point, and here we are. Too bad.

That's a historic storm in Texas on the GFS.  

Houston Texas having more snow than here would sure be something.

Does the Euro show the same GFS Texas crusher?

Kinda, looks like rain on the Euro. I was more referring to the CMC which shows snow to the gulf lol

I only looked quickly, but verbatim I think the Euro is too warm there

Awful is a disaster, bad is a joke, ok is meh, good doesn’t work, perfect is a nightmare.

Let's go for futility.  The April storm last Spring kept PWM off the top 10 least snowiest winters.  At 6.0" season to date and nothing on the horizon, let's keep this season under 25" and start Spring early.

 

[Edit- PWM had 38.0" last season.  GYX graphic out of date @OceanStWx?)

Still, if it isn't going to snow, futility or bust.

[CoastalWx]

It's going to be so much colder than last winter by mid month and as of now, likely will have just an inch and change to show for it. More snow at that point last winter. Un-effing-real.

I had way more posts in the earlier days. Being mobile also makes it easy too. I don't do FB or twitter really. This is it. I enjoy weather and interacting with the peeps on here. I just phucking hate the last three seasons.

I hate the last 7 and this one is quickly making it 8.

Saw 5 pages this morning and was mildly intrigued, until I scrolled through and the hilights were a summation of OJ's career and rhetoric about how historic the storm is for TX.

[dryslot]

Looks like we wait until around the 18th for the next shot, Both the GFS and Euro have something for then.

I have much less..as I don't see Jan 7 this year being nearly as prolific. I'd take last year in a heartbeat over this.

This is actually by far the worst of the past 7 duds into mid January. You just can allow yourself to entertain the notion that it can't get can't worse because then it does.

There is always a rogue 300 hr threat to keep one psychotically hoping.

I honestly believe that a sub 10” snowfall season is possible in SNE as a hypothetical bottom.
