I had to create an account to state how disappointed I am with all the posters here that are so angry they aren’t getting snow that have shut down the discussion for this storm.  In southern Delaware, I’m still forecasted to get 7 inches and would like to follow this on the models.  I would argue that Mid Atlantic has nothing to do with south central PA or West Virginia or western maryland, while Delaware is about as mid Atlantic as you can get.  There should be a region on this site called mid Appalachia so all the people whose weather is more effected by the Appalachian mountains than the Atlantic Ocean can discuss their unique environmental weather issues while the people who truely reside in the mid Atlantic ( 2 hour drive from the Atlantic Ocean from sandy hook NJ to Cape Hatteras NC) can have a resource to better understand the weather they are facing.   If the mods don’t ban the people from last night who were shouting down any people trying to discuss models with claims of bust and no snow, this site will no longer be useful to me and many others.  Thanks to all the people who talk about model output.  To the rest, you are not the center of the universe.  Learn to be a better loser.

Well, the area does include those folks currently, so no. HOWEVER, I am not unopposed to the suggestion. Only problem would be this spot would lose 20% of the posters and the new one wouldn't have enough to keep it lively and interesting. Snow (yes, because snow IS a IMBY thing) brings out the best and worst in people, rarely do rain/wind/heat events bring out the passion that snow does.

There’s a southern MD sub forum, which may be better for you.

I'm not sure what he's even talking about because I'm also in Southern Delaware and I'm certainly not expecting seven at this point.

To be fair, we do have our own thread because let's be honest, everyone in this thread likes to pretend that civilization ends at the Bay bridge.

I am an ass!  

But... they have forums to go into that are discussing this storm the way they want... you know because you are in them having that discussion.   One is below.  Going into another forum and telling THEM how THEY should be talking about stuff is...well, I'm not gonna take that ish seriously sorry.

You would still do well to recognize that we are part of the sub forum. If you don't like it, maybe we should be split off.

Expand  

I hear you, but it can’t be recognized if it’s not called out. I’m sure the red taggers and other more knowledgeable folks would answer questions in your areas.

You do understand there's a difference between form and thread, right?

What did I just say? Whether you like it or not, we are a part of this subform it even says it in the title of the subform. Sorry that offends you...

I honestly find the regional hate around here, especially during snow events, to be so absurd.  RIC vs M/D line…eastern shore vs metro areas.  Some people here are straight up children and the worst comes out in forum divider events.  It’s only snow, life will go on.

Couldn't agree more. The asinine behavior being shown by people that I know for a fact are highly intelligent. Mature individuals is saddening.

Must really suck to not get any snow. And I'm saying that because I'm not getting any either but I'm not going around going out of my way to be an ass to people about it 

 

Edit: You're better than this. Why be like this? I actually really enjoy your posts most of the time, but today you're acting like well. Political figures were not allowed to talk about on here.

To be fair that person came off as pretentious and didn't exactly walk into community nicely. You wouldn't walk into a bar acting that way. Regardless I am just enjoying the failure at this point :lol:

Expand  

They deleted their post. We should just move on.

Oh I'll agree. The original guy was definitely being an ass. But the assumption that everyone in this part of the sub acts that way is well offensive.
