JB is also saying how H5 looks good on the Euro but the surface isn't and should be further west.

Watch Bernie Rayno’s new video as it explains why this storm just isn’t going to come up the coast. Damn kicker pushing the ULL to form too far east and keep trough positively tilted. Not sure what JB is referring to as the ULL position seems to be obviously east

Jesus this thread… it’s small changes in input data upstream leading to amplified outcomes here. 
Maybe it phases in time, maybe not…but glacial melt water effecting future storms? Maybe that’s better left for another thread…

When it comes to forecasting.  I don't know anything, and even I know that JB saying that there's a better chance of it snowing than we think, is right on brand.

If I ever saw someone report here that JB is calling for less snow than current consensus, I would immediately rush out to buy a warm coat, because it would mean that hell has frozen over.

Can I call it?

 

Storm Cancel.

Sure, call it.  Im not even sure what that means.  Does it change anything when one "calls it?"

 

You know damn well you'll continue looking at the models and/or checking this thread until Tuesday at the earliest.   Bunch of addicts looking for a fix, myself included. 

 

But sure.  "Call it"

Yeah JB gets it disastrously wrong. Good metrologies but I feel like something has changed with him over the past 5 years

Bernie Ray just came out and said upper low further east than last few days, and will be MA storm, maybe a few inches here...the 28th 1-3"/nuisance storm of the season

He’s a clown, can very much be right but nothing is sampled lol it can be 0 or double digits

I don’t really follow him, but don’t you think it’s the exact same mentality as warm mongerers here, or pundits continuously calling for a bull or bear market, or bookies making odds for a sporting event? People are just taking their shots hoping to be right to then enjoy the accolades.

So NOAA research is irrelevant on a weather forum pretty much connected with NOAA.  Never said anything about this storm forresthill

If the AO was a -3 instead of a - 5 we would have seen at least some decent snow. The strength of the AO would not let the storm gain latitude. Because of this we are waiting for a phase to bring this from the coast in with the kicker out west it wasn't going to happen.

I have a lot of respect for the man, as he uses conventional wisdom/meteorology more than most these days.  He also admits when he blows a forecast. 

 

However... He is puting all his eggs in one basket with the kicker and the modeled positive, almost neutral tilt of the low.  My feeling is that he is reminding himself of the seasonal trends we have witnessed thus far, and weighing his forecast heavily on this.  Not necessarily a bad idea. I'd like to see where we stand tonight and tomorrow morning.  Not sure why the rush to put out "first calls" when you have established viewership.  

 

Seems like poorly managed risk/reward.  But what do I know... im just a boat captain.  Very interesting evolution to follow, regardless of outcome.

and with the current storm we are seeing the -5 AO cause  a cutter

This thread's title is "Discussion-OBS snow event sometime between 18z Wed 2/19-12z Fri 2/21?."  The Gulf Stream's elimination, if it does in fact occur, most likely won't be observable by this Friday.  I think that's all he's saying.

Please don't talk about science on a weather forum
