  1. Duration is so overrated. How long does it really snow 1"/hr+ at a given locale in any given storm? Its much more about atmospheric water/dynamics/rates....stalled storms may add a few inches, but occlusion normally ensures its that "days and days of snow" crap that adds like 2-3" per day. Ideally, you get a storm go to go nuts with insane rate, stall and then get captured by another piece of energy diving in, but that is pretty exotic due to wave spacing issues.
  2. GEM is another two hour commute....not enough to get the day off, but enough for suicide inducing traffic. Pass.
  3. The ridge out west wasn't as good....I wonder if that played a role. Seemed to be a bit of energy crashing in in AK.
  4. The discrete S stream entity actually looked a little healthier than 06z, but the N stream was too shy.
  5. Exactly. All I am saying...you know I am not one of those CC zealots.
  6. I won't even speculate on pecentage, but agree....less than 100% is natural.
  7. Not all....some of it is anthropogenic. That isn't debatable, either.
  8. Both are true. I just said that I agree with you that there is overattribution, however, GW is real and it adds moisture. If you don't want the next 60" dump, then I'll take yours lol Dropped.
  9. The media, both general and social create so much tension because they sensationalize everything....and not just with respect to CC, either...race, everything. Not to get political...I'll zip it.
  10. Man, that 06z GFS is a quick hitter, but some insane rates....I wish.
  11. Well, its much easier that far to the south because they average so little.
  12. I'm not arguing the point....I guess I just expected less since they are right on the ocean. Again, just my visceral reacton...not debating anything.
  13. Yea, I agree with Wolf that there is some overattribution, but I don't feel like this is an example of that...its a pretty egregious case.
  14. 60" snow storm has absolutely zero to do with the fact that the world is comprsised of like 70% water and said water is warmer than it ever has been. The fact that warmth holds more water isn't debatable.
  15. Just stop...don't turn this into that. If you want to throw a tantrum about it, do it in another forum. The fact that you have trouble accepting this isn't my problem. 30", fine...60" dude? Enough with the delusion.
  16. What is Sydney NS climo? I'm sure they average more than Boston and are prone to larger storms, but that is still nuts. I'm just overwhelmed with emotion because on the one hand, I hate that city because I am jealous, and on the other hand it gives me weenie lust for what is possible in a warming climate.
  17. Yea, I was just initmating that.....no doubt in my mind that was some CC juice.
  18. As much as we lament GW, storms like that are going to become more of a possibility...gonna see some insane events, even as climo overall gets a bit more hostile. These past several years are worth that IMO...I'll trade some 6" deals to see that, as those are what I live for.
