CoastalWx Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 the way a few of your brethren are devastated by only 4-8" vs. 12+" is a concept I will never fully understand Some were on their way to various records, so it was disappointing. I'm just worried about a forecast bust. This is a tricky storm, so I'm not too worried yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 As much as the models have been bashed this winter, I think some props are due. They were all over the storm. Within the last day or two. Before that they were shaky at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Yeah, we need warnings now. Folks need to be ready to leave work early. Alot of the TV mets were actually questioning on air why the WSW hadn't been changed to a warning yet. I bet they were hoping LWX would blink first so they could base their forecast off of them.

Winterson Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 They have been reduced to hugging the RUC. Sort of weird to read that thread because they are basically tracking a different storm entirely. its the tale of two storms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDstorm Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Yeah, we need warnings now. Folks need to be ready to leave work early. Tomorrow could be a real mess on the roads. A lot of people will be clueless. Someone that I'm not too fond of at my office today hates winter weather. On the way out the door this evening, he said " great news that we dodged another snow bullet. Looks like mostly rain for us in Baltimore.". I was going to give him heads up about the snow, but I really don' t like him much. I figured he would find out the hard way during tonight's weather updates. Given the NWS forecast and some of the local TV forecasters, he may have to wait until tomorrow for the rude awakening. MDstorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchnick Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 GGEM looks a lot like RGEM, but with a 38mm MAX almost over my house! I had a 40mm max with 2/6/10! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravensrule Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I NEVER thought I'd see anything close to that again in my lifetime just sayin' Unfortunately some of that will be wasted and the ratios will be lower, but i get your drift. If this would verify like the GGEM shows there better not be any bitching here the rest of the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
