There are 3 or 4 bad ones in there that just post and bring nothing to the table.

Hey, I resemble that remark!! :lol:

ETA:  To be fair, some light or humorous banter in the main storm/medium range threads is OK (other than in storm mode of course!), when between model cycles and that sort of thing.  But the nonstop doom-scrolling posts by people when things don't look "good" or "as good" gets to be a bit much and annoying.

@Interstate  @T. August  curse update - starting tomorrow will be crashing in Hamilton neighborhood until the March 1 move back up to Hunt Valley - so maybe that is far enough south of you all to get a warning level snow to you for Tuesday...

You’re moving to Hunt Valley? We’ll be next door neighbors.

Yeah, the new west unit build of the Avalon apartments - the ones back by One Life Fitness portion of the mall area. 

Fun! I highly recommend the Cava that is right there. My new favorite lunch spot when I go to the office

Cava, huh? Never heard of them, but I pass by that way often doing my gig work with BCPS--I may check them out sometime!

The one in the HV Towne Center opened last summer. There is another further south in Timonium. Spicy lamb bowl for me all day every day haha. The Honeygrow next door to Cava is pretty good too.

Cava > Chipotle any day. Though both are great

It really seems like there's a contingent of folks here that, after witnessing Feb 2010 and Jan 2016 just expect that and are extremely difficult to please otherwise. 

whelp, there's bunch of us across the northern tier that would be quite happy if we get to a six-inch warning level storm...let's verify one of those for Mappy to me - to interstate - to the bel air crew to t.august 

But somehow these tend to go from pinks to struggling to get to four inches for our crew. Maybe this one will be different!

The doom posts only bother you if you let them.  Is it better to have a thread full of posts telling people how to feel?   

Taking this to Banter...

When I think about it, I generally agree with you.  Neither type of post is great to have to scroll through when there are tons of each.  But generally the "doom posts" tend to overwhelm most everything.  I get just as down or frustrated when there are model cycles that seem to look worse or trend worse, but I don't feel the need to dump a ton of what I feel in the main discussion threads.  That kind of stuff should be put here in Banter (or the semi-defunct Panic Room?).  I'm just as guilty as anyone with putting "banterish" posts in the main threads, though generally I try to keep those a bit lighter with some humor.  There is a certain amount of leeway in what one can post in those threads, which is totally fine (outside storm mode, when we have that).  Especially in the "down" periods between model runs.  But I also try to put some things here in Banter as well instead of the other places.
