  1. I'm not sure why we feel the need to blast people for voicing the fact that 7-10" is dissappointing given this had the potential for so much more..."stupidity"? 'Cmon, dude...40" was a very long shot, but this had a very realistic chance to be a pretty high end ordeal and now it isn't. I'm not sure why storm enthusiasts need to pretend that doesn't blow while at the same time being glad that there is a bonafide event en route during a shitty season. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
  2. Yea, IP transitioned to some moderate freezing rain last night while I was shoveling...pack is glazed.
  3. Nah...its like 8" here. To me, that is pedestrian...didn't mean to give anyone the wrong idea. Nice storm.
  4. I don't think so. The ceiling is certainly lowering, but I'd be pretty shocked if it isn't a widespread warning event.
  5. I agree...I think the capture and crawl scenario has crawled away. We need to hope that wave can close off faster on it's own, which is possible.
  6. I think it's becoming clear that the route to a big storm is to hope that wave can kind go to town in its own faster...that is the hope for a foot or more, otherwise it's a warning event...which is still no small feat this year.
  7. Looks like that PV energy is a no-go....about 36 hours off on the timing. That lead wave is all in its own, and looked better in a discrete sense, but the less interaction with the PV outweighed that so it was a net loss-pedestrian.
  8. Man, I looked at H5 south of LI and thought the EURO looked better than 12z,but the clown cut it in half.
  9. Very Skillful Thursday (2/23) Forecast Not much to analyze in the aftermath of this system, as the Eastern Mass Weather Final Call was very accurate overall. Final Call: Reality: The only minor flaw is that perhaps the southern periphery of the 1-3" zone could have been slightly further to the north, over the Mass border from Connecticut and Rhode Island. Final Grade: A
  10. One of my better efforts, as I had it pretty much nailed down on Sunday. https://easternmassweather.blogspot.com/2023/02/very-skillful-thursday-223-forecast.html
  11. Okay then...I haven't looked. I'm just seeing the dreaded "Inv" acronym and dreading the prospect of us being "there"...lol
  12. You know my thoughts on inverted troughs...inverted trough IN....Ray OUT....out on that modeled depiction, per se. Not necessarily big snows. Guidance will either correct towards a more tradition phase/larger storm, or less snow. But that inverted trough idea is crap.
  13. Long duration is always higher stakes to me because of the dichotomous nature in which I perceive it..its either a stalled tempest, or one of those protracted ordeal that Kevin loves that breed debates about measuring technique...to swipe and clear or not to swipe and clear lol Like 9" over 3 days, never more than 1/2" per hour or 7" depth
  14. Longer duration is a catch 22...its great if it's a phased solution that slows....but a long duration of 8" just means you never get fun rates lol
