Talk about screw holes, low balled NWS forecasts, JB, unfair snow gods, storm canceling and trolling here

More rain today for NE ohio. Friday and weekend temps more seasonal dropping to 20's or lower are predicted and a few inches of a white frozen substance, but right back to daytime highs above freezing to start next week. Glad I don't own a snow blower or snowmobile, they'd just be rustin' away, though it is making it easier to heat my house.

I am stuck in the sh*t hole of New England and getting all rain. I am definitely getting screwed

If the DPVA snows in OH/NY/PA can stay just far enough to the SE or the wrap around lake enhanced banding underperforms, Detroit will be in good company in terms of getting screwed.

Otherwise, lol...

Oh, I would also like to add Cleveland to my "congrats" list in the other thread.

And I highly doubt it is, but it this ends up being the only significant snowstorm of this season, pissed won't hardly describe how I'll feel...

[SpartyOn]

No complaints here..nothing but smiles for the Good number of beautiful mild sunny days. It's nice being able to go outside in jan without feeling your nose hairs freeze.

I'm thinking 78 degrees and Bikinis.

[dmc76]

Today's is the worst weather imaginable... 38 Degrees with Fog and Drizzle in January turning into Cold/Windy/Dry Slot/Flurries with little to no snow depth after. Im having flashbacks of the 90's.

This would be a good place for in-depth analysis of John Dee maps as well

Don't you know if it isn't hitting State College it is not important... He needs to become a local TV Met and stop producing horrible 'national' forecasts.

My guess is he would be OK in a relatively small market like State College. Outside of that, ehh, tough to tell

His area of expertise is definitely on the east side of the Apps north of Philly and south of say Albany.

Har har. I was exaggerating because I'm hoping for a decent event. But thanks for the picture of that dusting. I do hope we get a lot better than that. Traffic site showing GREEN everywhere. My colleagues at the office are all complaining of another over-hyped event.

This has been looking like a prolonged event, brief heavier bursts notwithstanding.

yep everything is pretty much 100% going to LOTs forecast, with heaviest expected during the evening. It's shame snow didn't stick more at onset on the treated and heavily traffic'd Loop sidewalks.

Cracking me up, he probably stepped out underground and wondered why it wasn't snowing lol.

[AppsRunner]

This is quite possibly going to go from .4" of mositure to less than .1", while CLE bumps up my forecast to 3-7"

All the TV mets in the area have been going with ~4-6 area wide with a long drawn event. No hype at all.. Lol what did you expect a foot+ with constant 40mph+ winds??
With the way things are going now the tv guys might even bust LOW.. Please go right ahead back to lurking...
