  1. I think moving forward less stalled storms and more 40" totals within 24 hours will be the trend. But historically speaking, I agree...it said it helps, but its more about rates.
  2. 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.
  3. GEM is another two hour commute....not enough to get the day off, but enough for suicide inducing traffic. Pass.
  4. 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.
  5. The discrete S stream entity actually looked a little healthier than 06z, but the N stream was too shy.
  6. Exactly. All I am saying...you know I am not one of those CC zealots.
  7. I won't even speculate on pecentage, but agree....less than 100% is natural.
  8. Not all....some of it is anthropogenic. That isn't debatable, either.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Man, that 06z GFS is a quick hitter, but some insane rates....I wish.
  12. Well, its much easier that far to the south because they average so little.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
