Thanks! If you could do this one that would be great! At least until I figure out how to log on. Username I assume is bombsaway1288, what would the password be for the first time I log on?

Correct. NYC Nickeled and dimed their way to an above average season. Think there was some type of storm almost every week that year though. Extremely active. Earliest memories of snow!

HAHA, there you go, remember these graphics well from that storm. I'm sure you remember the same stuff on TWC I do from the whole lead up to it. Think the big amounts were still in the forecast for NYC as soon as 12-18 hours out. Ended up with 6" in NE Bergen County and a Monday off from school that wasn't necessary lol

That it was. It was driving me nuts. Thank you!

That was the classic storm that ended up clobbering Upstate NY- New England. Remember the Weather Channel had Kocin sitting there infront of a map that had all of PA-NJ-NYC-SNE in the dark purple saying "Widespread 2-3 Feet". I think that's when panic ensued and why a lot of people consider it and remember it as a huge bust. The area's that did get those amounts weren't exactly populated. Think ORH pulled a 30"+ spot though. That was the storm that hurt/ruined a lot of on-air mets in the big markets. I think one met (can't remember his name but he worked in NYC at some point in the 2000's) was literally run out of Philadelphia because they ended up with nothing after the 2' predictions

Spot on. Remember getting 14" in NE Bergen County when all was said and done on the morning of the 7th. Giants played the Redskins I think it was at the Meadowlands after it got dumped on with like a foot and a half of snow. Remember BIG piles on the sidelines One of the only times I felt like I got the highest amounts as a kid in that area. Got most of it from the EWR mega band. Think they ended up with something like 14" too

You can add me in Kevin if you like. I just don't have a log in and password. Thanks! 6.8" Storm Total. Round 1: 1" Round 2: 5.8"

Wrong thread I guess. My bad. Mods please move if need be

How has Upton not issued even a wind advisory? I feel like the NWS has downplayed the wind for tomorrow as to not "upset peoples holiday" and/or deter people from coming to the parade. I might be way off but they do seem to be on the lowest side of all forecasts I've seen for days.

Thunderstorms inbound to ECT and RI up to Mass. Go figure lol

If it were 48 hrs out then we would be. Nobody, anywhere in the world, should be going nuts from a 5 day GFS op run. Chances are pretty good that it doesn't play out how the GFS has it now. We will not take the bait. Not yet at least.

I'm not, and I don't think anyone else when it comes to a Northeast landfall/impacts a week+ out. Just implying that it looks like its going to be an active period next month so anything can happen. One well-timed trough or build in of a ridge and things could get interesting up the EC. First ingredient is there, waves off Africa with lots of coming activity

Well Dorian and its setup are gone now so maybe we'll see a little something different next week that will be favorable to an EC/Northeast impact

This won't happen. He 'threatened' to fire them. Won't happen because yes, it is ridiculous.

Just amazing. I can't wait to watch his story on this one. I think this Sunday is a scheduled episode from Michael, unless they've made a last minute change because of Dorian but I doubt it. Would need a lot more time for editing and such, I would think.

With all due respect, I hope you're wrong temp wise and the 90's lack this year. I'm sure they won't and you'll be right. We'll see.

I hope you’re right. Maybe we’ll get another 09’-10’ before then too!

Very true. The whole metro coast really did get in on a lot of good action. Really stood out here with the over 100” in the second half for KBOS. Something I’ll never see again most likely

I wonder where that idiot troll who said the HRRR was only showing 0.3” qpf for DC is now? Hope he’s seen this. Congrats on what looks like an overperformer there. Been a while since your area jacked/trends kept getting better and better as the event got closer. Expecting us to get into the goods in the next two weeks hopefully. Have a putrid 1.5” here in East Boston, MA so far. Hoping for a 2015 type repeat here for the second half! Probably not a popular thought in this sub forum but congrats on tonight and enjoy it!

Lol once again Pete B mentioned it this time saying "Some controversy regarding the top spot. After speaking to someone who is close to the reporter of the 31 in Wilmington" he then said the same thing about the 6 hour clearing method saying "this is the right way to measure snow" and "the NWS said 'what? 31in is too high' but I think it's good and very close to the 28.3 report Methuen." Lol this is getting hysterical.

He didn't meantion him by name and by seeing what you posted just before me answers how he found out about it, but he definitely thinks it legit by his "discounted by some" tone and the fact that he said it on-air

Lol yeah he does get a lot of bashing on here but I don't think he is terrible. First winter watching him and have noticed a warm, anti-snow bias but his delivery on TV is one of the best

Well there we go. You got to it before me

Pete Bouchard on his 5pm broadcast while showing the totals graphic with Methuen as the highest said: "The real jackpot, 31in in Wilmington. Old school measurement of 6 hours of snow, clear the board. 6 hours of snow, clear the board. It was discounted by some." I guess he checks in on this board or contacted Taunton to know about the 6 hour clearing method you used but nice shoutout to Ray anyway. By his tone it sounded like he was buying the 31

Wow that seems very strange as there could be quite the difference in snow totals from Winthrop right on the coast to downtown Boston like yesterday. I thought I got more than 14.5in. I'm sure this has been discussed at nausium in here before regarding Winthrop basically being used for bostons official records
